Perfect CEO

Gwendolyn snapped back to her senses before she asked, “Ah, you've arrived?”

Benjamin nodded slightly. “Yes, we agreed to watch a movie together today.”

After Gwendolyn hung up the phone, she patted her face.

Then, she mumbled to herself, “Gwendolyn, don't you want to be with Benjamin? Forget what happened this morning. Forget what Patrick said and stay away from him.”

After that, she hurriedly packed her things and left the CEO's office with her bag.

Since it was time to get off work, there were many people in the elevator. Gwendolyn was then squeezed into the corner.

In the elevator, several female colleagues started discussing Patrick's engagement.

“Hey, is the CEO's secretary in quite a bad mood recently?”

“That's for sure. Mr. Lowen is about to get engaged. She has no hope of being with him anymore.”

“But Mr. Lowen has put her desk in his office. Will the future CEO's wife find it weird?”

“You don't understand. Rich men enjoy playing around. They keep their wives at home, but they have many other women outside. Mr. Lowen is so handsome that even I'm willing to be his secret lover.”

“Yeah, same.”

As Gwendolyn listened to them, she felt that every word was reminding her that if she ended up with Patrick, she would turn the rumor into the truth.

She pursed her lips. I must find a way to let Patrick give up on me. Whether he wants to have fun or just tease me, I have to try my best to keep a distance from him.

When the elevator reached the first floor, many people rushed out of the elevator. When the girls, who were gossiping, saw Gwendolyn, they all turned pale with fright.

Then, they all greeted her, “Ms. Ashton, you left work early today.”

Gwendolyn nodded slightly as a response.

That day was indeed the earliest day for her to get off work because she usually had to accompany Patrick.

However, he was not around that day, and he did not ask her to follow him when he went out, so she could leave earlier.

Walking out of the building, she saw a Maserati not far away from her. Benjamin lowered the window and called, “Gwen, here!”

Several colleagues heard him from the entrance. Gwendolyn slowly walked toward the car under everyone's gazes. Getting out of the car, Benjamin helped her open the car door.

“Gwen, I'm so happy today!”

Gwendolyn smiled at him, then she turned her head to look around.

She found her colleagues were still standing there, watching and talking about her. Ignoring them, she entered the car quickly.

Benjamin got into the car as well and drove away after that.
