Patrick sighed. “So, you insist on bringing Zayden home with you?”
Gwendolyn nodded. She had no choice. Zayden had told Michael everything without her permission.
Nevertheless, she was also responsible for that matter. She was greedy, and she wanted Michael to
forgive her, so she did not explain anything to him. This is troublesome. My head hurts!
Patrick stopped saying anything. Turning around, he walked out of the study coldly.
The sound of the door closing brought Gwendolyn back to her senses. She glanced at the door,
knowing that Patrick was angry.
When she walked out of the study, Patrick had left the house. She tried to look for him around the
house, but her effort was to no avail. With that, she was certain that he had left furiously.
Standing next to her, Juliette lifted her head and looked at Gwendolyn. She blinked, asking, “Gwen, did
you fight with Mr. Handsome? Will you two still get married?”
I've told my friends that my daddy and I will join the activities with them on Children's Day. That's why
they believe that I have a daddy. If Mr. Handsome doesn't appear on Children's Day, my friends will call
me a liar! They might stop hanging out with me too.

However, she broke into laughter upon hearing what Juliette said. “We're not fighting. Let's go to your
great-grandpa's house to celebrate the New Year.”
Juliette nodded. “I've prepared a gift for them.”
She knew that her great-grandfather was the one who gifted her the room. All of Gwendolyn's children
were thankful to him.
Gwendolyn flashed a smile. Then, she followed Zayden and the others to the Ashton residence while
carrying the gifts they wanted to give Michael.
The atmosphere in the Ashton residence was lively. There were a lot of decorations around the house.
Moreover, they had hung some dazzling lights and colorful ribbons around the trees in the courtyard.
Staring at the beautiful courtyard, Juliette smiled as she said to her brothers, “Happy New Year!”
Zayden got off the vehicle first. Upon helping the three kids to get out of the car, he reached out his
hand to support Gwendolyn.
“Thank you!” Gwendolyn said.
A bright smile bloomed on Zayden's face. “Gwen, have you made up your mind? I feel like telling your
grandpa about our marriage.”
Upon hearing what he said, Gwendolyn shook her head without hesitation. “Zayden, I wasn't thinking
straight that day. I was greedy because I wanted Grandpa to forgive me. That was why I didn't explain
anything to him. You're not the father of my three children. Besides, Patrick is the man I love now. Can
you stop making things difficult for me?”
Just then, Felicia walked out of the house with a group of people behind her.
“Fel, do you really want to celebrate the New Year at the Lowen residence?” Candace grabbed Felicia's
arm, feeling reluctant to let her go.
Felicia had dressed up gorgeously, and she was wearing exquisite makeup. With her face lit up, she
looked delighted. ”Gwen, it's great that you're home. You can celebrate the New Year with Dad. I can't
join you guys this year.”
Meanwhile, Francine approached Gwendolyn with a smile. “Gwen, you're back! Fel is going to
celebrate the New Year with the Lowen family. It's great that you're here. You can keep your grandpa

Having said that, she could not help but continue, “What's going on between Fel and Patrick? They've
called off the engagement, yet they still look like they're dating each other. I can't understand the
youngsters nowadays.”
Then, she shot Zayden a glance. Her eyes lit up as soon as she saw him. “Oh! Mr. Surrington, you're
here. Please come in!”
Felicia curled her lips into a cold smirk as she walked toward Gwendolyn. “Gwen, I'm going to the
Lowen residence now. Don't forget to spend more time with Grandpa and Dad.”
With that said, she got in the car and left the Ashton residence.
Candace heaved a sigh. “What the others say is true. Once a daughter grows up, her husband and in-
laws will become her priorities. She can't even stay home and spend time with us on New Year's Day.”
Zachary embraced her in his arms. “Our daughter is a grown-up now. She'll have to marry someone
else sooner or later, or do you want her to be alone forever?”
Candace smiled. “You're right. Otherwise, she would end up like someone who doesn't even have a
place to go on New Year's Day. Home is the only place she can go.”
After saying that, she shot Gwendolyn a cold glance and turned around to head upstairs.
Gwendolyn frowned harder in displeasure. Why did Felicia go to the Lowen residence again?
