Perfect CEO

Patrick cast his eyes upon Gwendolyn and replied, “Of course. She's worth it.”

However, Gwendolyn was in the dark about Patrick's intention and could not help but give stink eyes, as she presumed the necklace was for Felicia. What has she done to deserve a handsome boyfriend who just bought her an unreasonably expensive necklace? It's not fair. A wicked woman like her should end up as a spinster.

Little did she know that three men were staring at her bitter face at that moment.

Lucas found it amusing, and Kevin was rendered speechless. They were well aware that Gwendolyn was not an ordinary woman they could mess with, but they did not understand why Patrick would fall head over heels for her.

Soon, the crowd left when the auction was over, and the assistants of the three men went to pay and collect the items their bosses had bid.

Standing up, Gwendolyn looked at the three men. “Mr. Lowen, shall we go back now?”

As a matter of fact, the three-hour-long auction was lengthy and tedious for Gwendolyn when she had to listen to the background and characteristics of every single lot.

Perhaps this is how rich people spend their time. They like to dabble in antiques with stories. Anyway, it's time for me to go back to see my kids. After such a long day, I miss them so badly.

Patrick glanced at his watch and stated, “Let's go for dinner before going home.”

Feeling helpless, Gwendolyn could only follow his words despite her urge to go home. After all, Patrick was her boss.

When everyone went down to the ground floor, they bumped into a woman who was the proprietor of the antique shop. The latter walked over after catching sight of Patrick.

“Mr. Lowen, thanks for coming,” greeted the woman as she shook hands with Patrick.

The woman was Lucia Larson. She dressed in quaint clothing, looking stunning with her gorgeous features.

“Ms. Larson, your antiques are exquisite,” Patrick greeted politely.

In truth, he knew Lucia always had a crush on him, but he had no feelings for her and would avoid her as much as he could. He would not even attend the auction if it was not for Gwendolyn.

“Mr. Lowen, I heard you'll be engaged. That is such a shame for me. Do tell me when you're divorced, though. I'll always be here for you,” said Lucia as her eyes tinged with sorrow.

Upon hearing Lucia's words, Gwendolyn was astounded.

Patrick is so popular, as he seems to have admirers everywhere. However, I know one thing for sure—this lady is far better than Felicia. Not only is she beautiful, but she also owns a well-known antique shop. Judging from the pomp of the auction just now, I believe she is quite a powerful woman. Patrick should have chosen her in the first place.
