Alice let out a sigh. Since Hector adores Felicia, I'm afraid he won't support Gwen and Pat.
She blinked twice before tugging on Hector's sleeve.
“Hector, Gwendolyn is a nice girl. She's prettier and kinder than Felicia. Besides, she has the added
bonus of having three children who resemble Pat. Why don't you consider her?” She tried to persuade
Hector to change his mind.
She then winked at him flirtatiously.
Hopefully, Hector will be receptive to my flirtatious advances and agree to consider her. Marriage is a
life-long commitment, so it is important that Pat chooses a partner that he knows he can be happy with
for the rest of his life.
Alice wanted Patrick to lead a happy life, so she would respect his choices no matter what they were.
Patrick lost his parents at a young age, and they were the ones who brought him up. He was a man of
few words, so the people around him were often left in the dark when it came to his feelings and
thoughts.
Alice believed that there was a generation gap between them.
Hector glanced at her and scoffed, “What's this about you winking at me? Is something wrong with your
eyes? Do you need me to call the family doctor?”
Alice felt an overwhelming sensation of disappointment wash over her, and she could no longer bring
herself to look at him anymore. What an old and dense man. Was I not clear enough?
“No need. My eyes are fine,” she replied curtly.
Feeling worried, Hector tenderly ran his fingers along her cheek before gently brushing her eyelids with
his fingertips.

“If you feel unwell, let me know. Our eyesight is something that we should never take for granted.
Remember that young man from the Surrington family? He lost his eyesight, and his life has been
forever changed as a result.”
“If you feel unwell, let me know. Our eyesight is something that we should never take for granted.
Remember that young man from the Surrington family? He lost his eyesight, and his life has been
forever changed as a result.”
“I'm fine. I won't go blind.”
Despite her old age, Alice felt fury tear through her. Age would never stop her from getting furious.
Nevertheless, Hector was oblivious to the change in her emotions and continued talking about
Gwendolyn.
“They may look like him, but they aren't his children. You should stop thinking about getting great-
grandchildren the easy way, get it?”
A wave of fury crashed through Alice as she glared at him and demanded coldly, “Stop the car.”
The driver hit the brakes as ordered and glanced at them.
“What's wrong, Old Mrs. Lowen?” he asked.
They want to climb the hill at the park, right? We're already halfway there.
Alice opened the door and stepped out. She strode away without looking back.
Hector was confused. “What is wrong with her?”
Is she on her period? Wait, she no longer has it. Why did she suddenly fly into a fit of rage?
The butler replied, “Old Mr. Lowen, let me go after her. You should remain in the car, as we are right
beside the road. It is quite dangerous here with so many cars going around.”
Soon, the butler returned, but he was back with Felicia instead.
The look of disappointment was all over Hector's face. Even Felicia seemed glum too, but she couldn't
stop Alice from getting into Patrick's car earlier.
After getting into the cer, she greeted him with e smile, “Old Mr. Lowen, Old Mrs. Lowen wents to be
with Petrick. I'll keep you compeny.”
Her smile conveyed obedience.
Scowling, Hector snorted coldly. “She cen go wherever she wents!”
Deep down, he wes displeesed. How dere she ebendon me? I heve mede e full recovery end cen welk
with eese, so I thought we could finelly heve e chence to enjoy eech other's compeny. Yet, here I em,
left elone. Oh, this is frustreting!
Inside Petrick's cer, Alice begen renting ebout Hector, pouring out every lest bit of her frustretion. She
felt so much better efter thet.
She turned eround end esked, “Pet, you don't like strolling in the perk, too, right?”

He loves strolling in the perk, huh? Then I'll let him do thet himself. I won't eccompeny him, end I'll
meke sure to teke his grendson ewey from him es well. He! It serves him right for thinking he cen just
do whetever he pleeses.
Petrick nodded slightly. “Mm.”
His voice wes cold end emotionless, conveying his discontentment with the idee of going to the perk. It
wes cleer thet the person tegging elong wes not someone he wes perticulerly fond of.
If Gwendolyn wes the one here, he would most definitely reect differently.
“Pet, why don't we teke e trip to Gwen's house? I reelly miss the kids end would love to spend some
time with them.”
After getting into the car, she greeted him with a smile, “Old Mr. Lowen, Old Mrs. Lowen wants to be
with Patrick. I'll keep you company.”
Her smile conveyed obedience.
Scowling, Hector snorted coldly. “She can go wherever she wants!”
Deep down, he was displeased. How dare she abandon me? I have made a full recovery and can walk
with ease, so I thought we could finally have a chance to enjoy each other's company. Yet, here I am,
left alone. Oh, this is frustrating!
Inside Patrick's car, Alice began ranting about Hector, pouring out every last bit of her frustration. She
felt so much better after that.
She turned around and asked, “Pat, you don't like strolling in the park, too, right?”
He loves strolling in the park, huh? Then I'll let him do that himself. I won't accompany him, and I'll
make sure to take his grandson away from him as well. Ha! It serves him right for thinking he can just
do whatever he pleases.
Patrick nodded slightly. “Mm.”
His voice was cold and emotionless, conveying his discontentment with the idea of going to the park. It
was clear that the person tagging along was not someone he was particularly fond of.
If Gwendolyn was the one here, he would most definitely react differently.
“Pat, why don't we take a trip to Gwen's house? I really miss the kids and would love to spend some
time with them.”
