Angeline stood outside the entrance for a long time. After half an hour, her legs went numb.
In the end, she had no choice but to get into the car with tears in her eyes.
Zayden watched the car door shut, and the vehicle slowly drove out of the neighborhood.
He extinguished the tenth cigarette and returned to his desk to continue working.
Suzanne was in another room finishing her apple. She still felt hungry, so she decided to head
downstairs to sit at the dining table to eat grilled chicken.
When Zayden came downstairs to pour some water for herself, he saw her eating grilled chicken and
couldn't help but ask, “Suzanne, you don't even gain weight with your appetite. Do you have some
underlying illness?”
Although she ate so much every day, she didn't gain any weight or grow taller.
Suzanne's mouth was full of chicken, making it hard for her to speak clearly.
“I clean your mansion and listen to your instructions. Can't you let me eat my fill?”
Zayden smiled. “Sure. Eat as much as you want. I can still afford to pay your wages.”
Suzanne was the most unique woman Zayden had ever seen. She was only interested in food, and
nothing else could interest her.

“Remember to clean up after yourself after you eat your fill.”
Zayden poured a glass of water for himself and headed upstairs.
Suzanne thought the chicken tasted delicious and decided to ask Zayden to order a few more the next
day.
As she watched Zayden's retreating figure, she muttered to herself, “Zayden's eyes seem fine. Why is
he pretending to be fine?”
Humans are too complicated.
After her shower, Gwendolyn headed downstairs and saw Patrick walking into the house.
Her two sons were by his side, but she couldn't hear what they were saying to him.
Juliette had also run toward him. Patrick carried her into his arms and said with a smile, “Juliette, you
seem to have gained some weight.”
Juliette wrapped her arms around his neck and replied, “Yes, I haven't been sick recently, so I have
been eating more! Hehe!”
Upon seeing their sister so delighted, Justin and Julian exchanged glances and walked into the dining
room.
Gwendolyn walked over to Patrick and whispered, “Justin and Julian didn't try to chase you away,
right?”
She knew her two sons bore grudges well. They must have thought Patrick had betrayed them the
previous time and did not trust him anymore.
Patrick placed his arm around her shoulder. “They didn't say anything.”
Sensing his warm gaze on her, Gwendolyn felt her heart skip a beat, and she quickly changed the
subject.
“Let's eat!”
It was already seven in the evening, so her children were probably already hungry.
She was also starving after running around all day.
Patrick nodded. “Okay, I'm hungry too.”
The three of them entered the dining room. Camille called out, “Mr. Lowen, you're here! The meal's
ready!”
Patrick placed Juliette in her seat and replied to Camille calmly, “Thank you, Ms. Ziegler.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was grateful Camille was by Gwendolyn's side to take care of the three children these past few
years, or Gwendolyn would probably have had a harder time.
Camille smiled. “No problem.”
With that, she walked into the kitchen and brought out the soup she had simmered the whole day
before sitting down to eat.
Juliette passed Patrick a chicken wing and uttered, “Mr. Lowen, eat this chicken wing! It's delicious!”
Patrick felt a surge of warmth within him as he watched her place the chicken wing on his plate. It was
exactly as others had stated. Juliette had the ability to make people feel at ease.
“Thank you, Juliette.”
Patrick knew her favorite food was chicken wings and placed one on her plate too.
“Enjoy too.”
Upon seeing this scene, Gwendolyn thought the few of them seemed like a family.
If she were to marry Patrick, the three children would finally have a father. At that thought, she
reminded herself to tell her grandfather that the relationship between Zayden and her was fake.
At this moment, her phone rang, and she took a peek at her phone. She didn't feel like picking up the
call upon seeing that it was Felicia.
Juliette reminded her, “Gwen, your phone is ringing.”
