Triplets’ Attack: Game Over Daddy Chapter 255
Patrick was standing next to Gwendolyn with a solemn expression.
Gwendolyn arched her brow and took a glance at her wristwatch.
“Mr. Lowen, I still have an hour before my break ends.”
At that point, she was incredibly mad at him. This is what you get for prioritizing another woman over me. You
promised that we would have lunch together. How could you not wait for me?
Rosalie waved her hand at Gwendolyn and asked, “Gwen, are you friends with Mr. Surrington? It seems that you two
have a close relationship.”
She even smiled at Zayden while shooting the question at Gwendolyn.
Zayden replied directly, “You have a good eye, Ms. Chavez. I’m currently pursuing Ms. Ashton.”
Rosalie’s eyes widened a little upon hearing his declaration. “Wow! You have good taste, Mr. Surrington. Gwen is
pretty and capable. I bet she will be a good wife in the future.”
Having said that, she held Patrick’s hand and continued, “We should get going, Pat!”
Patrick’s expression was dark, and he was staring at Gwendolyn intensely. The latter, however, merely rolled her

I’m angry at him today anyway. I’m going to ignore him.
After Patrick and Rosalie had left, Gwendolyn finished her meal too. She put down her cutlery and took a sip of her
water.
With a smile, Zayden said, “The Lowen family and the Chavez family share a close relationship. The two elder ladies
of the house must have the intention to be in-laws.”
Although Gwendolyn had been working for Patrick for some time, she only managed to have a clearer picture of his
world recently.
Furthermore, she realized what she knew about Patrick previously was just the tip of the iceberg.
“I know. I’ve heard about it too.”
Out of the blue, Gwendolyn felt Alice had a reason for bringing her to the socialite gathering.
Zayden’s gaze then locked on her neck all of a sudden. That necklace! Isn’t that Starry Tears from the auction?
Zayden had actively bid on the necklace back then because he wanted to gift it to Gwendolyn. He didn’t expect to
see her wearing it now.
Upon noticing his gaze on her neck, she lowered her head and caught a glimpse of her necklace revealing itself.
She stuffed it under her shirt and smiled faintly at him.
“It’s fake. I bought it from a roadside stall.”
Zayden was at the auction that day. Thus, he could recognize the necklace no matter what.
Zayden wasn’t an idiot, and he knew who bid for it. Either way, he didn’t feel too defeated for losing against Patrick.
Despite that, his gaze became solemn. He then reached out to hold Gwendolyn’s hand.
“Gwen, no one has ever been able to walk into my heart since I met you six years ago. I’ve been waiting for you.”
Upon watching him holding her hand, Gwendolyn tried to pull her hand back, but his grip was too tight.
“Gwen, please consider me.”
His gaze was full of sincerity but with a hint of sadness.
Zayden had been waiting for her for the past few years. He thought they would eventually become a couple if he
continued being by her side, but recently, he had been having second thoughts.
Patrick’s appearance concerned him.
He realized that she wouldn’t be his if he just stayed where he was.
Hence, he started to panic and get fearful. He worried that someone would snatch Gwendolyn away from him.
Honestly, Gwendolyn was touched by his words. Zayden was a handsome and promising young man with an

Women would fall for him, and there was no doubt he would be a woman’s best destiny.
However, she couldn’t do it.
In the end, Gwendolyn only gave him a slight nod. “Okay. I will think about it.”
As she said that, she quickly retracted her hand. “I should go back to work now.”
Zayden got up. “I’ll walk you to your company’s lobby.”
After Zayden had paid the bill, the two walked side by side and exited the restaurant. Upon approaching the
intersection, they had to stop at the red light.
When the light turned green, Gwendolyn took a step forward. At the same time, Zayden held her hand and walked
her to the opposite side of the road.
Gwendolyn couldn’t help looking at her hand when he did so. His hand was warm and large, and it completely
enveloped hers.
She sincerely felt comfortable having him holding her like that as his care for her warmed her heart.
A slight smile then appeared on her face. Zayden was the person who she really didn’t want to hurt. Thus, she
couldn’t say no directly to him when he shot her the question.
I really have to think about a way to make him give up on pursuing me without hurting him.
