Perfect CEO

Patrick kissed the little girl on the cheek. “Thank you, Juliette!”

For some reason, from the moment he met her, he felt an indescribable closeness to her.

Despite not liking children in the first place, he found that he did not mind the three children and even liked them a lot.

Is this what it feels like to extend your love for someone to the people close to them?

Patrick put Juliette down on the couch before asking Hector, “Grandpa, how are you feeling today?”

He noticed that the old man was in good spirits, and his condition was also improving, so he hoped that his grandfather would speak to him one day.

Hector stared at him while making a silent remark.

You fool. Your wife and children are in front of you. Why don't you marry her so that they'll become your legitimate children?

Patrick raised an eyebrow. “Grandpa, Gwendolyn is my secretary, and these children are hers. Should you miss the children in the future, I'll ask her to bring them along to accompany you.”

After he finished speaking, he leaned over to whisper into the old man's ear, “If you want me to father a child, it may not happen anytime soon. You'll have to wait a few more years, so I can only satisfy your desire by letting you interact with someone else's children.”

Then, he stood up, grinning devilishly.

There's no way I'll father a child with Felicia. At the most, I'll marry her to fulfill his wishes. He can't blame me for not having children.

Hector slowly turned to glance at Gwendolyn before looking at his handsome grandson in front of him.

He wanted to speak or write out his thoughts, but the condition of his body did not allow him to do so, causing him to feel extremely frustrated.

Everyone had dinner happily, and Hector even ate a small portion of his food, which greatly delighted Alice.

While Gwendolyn was answering a call, the three children followed Alice as she pushed Hector out for a walk. Hence, Gwendolyn did not notice that she and Patrick were the only ones left at the table.

The call was from Lucy, and Gwendolyn could tell that something was not right from her tone.

“If you didn't manage to negotiate the price of the house, wait a little more. Don't be anxious about it, Luce.”

“Thank you, Gwen! Melanie's condition has deteriorated lately. I'm scared that she won't be able to wait for the bone marrow, so I'm going to find Mr. Gomez again and beg him.”

Gwendolyn's heart clenched in pain when she heard Lucy's sobs from the other end of the line.

“I'll help you think of a solution.”

She ended the call with tears brimming in her eyes, feeling upset upon thinking of Melanie.

It must be very hard for Lucy as well since she's alone.

Meanwhile, Patrick was scrutinizing her. Sensing a pair of eyes on her, Gwendolyn brushed off her thoughts.

“Oh? Where did they go?”

She truly did not hear them leaving.

His lips curled up in a smile. “They went for a walk. Are you done with your meal, Ms. Ashton?”
