Perfect CEO

Chapter 240

She hugged her knees tightly to her chest, looking like an obedient girl.

From the surface, one could not possibly tell that Gwendolyn was, in fact, already drunk.

Hearing Gwendolyn's voice, Zayden knocked on the car window and voiced, “Mr. Lowen, I'm here to pick Gwen up. Can you please open the door for me?”

However, Patrick was displeased. He locked the car door, and Zayden could not open the door from the outside.

Gwendolyn turned sideways and took a glance. “Zayden, I'm here. Zayden! Are you coming to get me up yet?”

There was a hint of frustration in her voice. As a matter of fact, Zayden would always send her home when she got drunk.

Hence, she felt safe hearing his voice.

Patrick uttered aloofly, “Start the car.”

Larry wanted to get down from the car to resolve the accident but had a change of mind upon witnessing everything.

Hearing Patrick's instructions, he had no choice but to start the car according to his employer's command.

The moment Larry drove away, Gwendolyn's phone rang.

She threw everything out of her bag, grabbed her phone, and picked up the call.


“Hello?”

“Gwen, ask Patrick to stop the car.”

Zayden sounded frosty when he said that. Later, he added, “Justin and Julian asked me to pick you up. They're waiting for you at home.”

Hearing that, Gwendolyn started to get a little impatient.

“Stop the car.”

Larry slammed his foot on the brake immediately. Gwendolyn swiftly pushed open the car door, and Zayden rushed up to get her out of the car.

“Gwen, did he bully you?”

Shaking her head, Gwendolyn waved at the car and voiced, “Goodbye, Mr. Lowen!”

Patrick merely watched her walk away with his brows furrowed, feeling utterly upset.

She knows who I am. Why is she walking away with another man?

Noticing the darkened expression on Patrick's face, Larry dared not to say a word and decided to stay still.

“Drive.”

Larry could feel his heart racing upon hearing his cold command. Without hesitation, he revved up the engine and left the place.

“Wrong direction. Follow Zayden's car.”

His words left Larry slightly taken aback, as the latter assumed that Patrick was mad and preferred to go home instead.

Never had he thought that his employer wanted to tailgate Zayden. Obediently, he made a U-turn and followed Zayden's car closely behind.

Inside Zayden's car, Gwendolyn sank back into the passenger's seat, feeling sleepy, but she found it difficult to fall asleep.

“Zayden, are we reaching home yet?”

The man turned around to look at her. His eyes instantaneously dimmed with anguish. She would have been taken away by Patrick if I didn't make it in time just now. I can't imagine what would happen to her tonight if I didn't appear.

“Gwen, Patrick isn't a good guy. It's best for you to keep a distance from him. Do you want to consider working at Surrington Corporation? The pay there will be higher than what he offered you.”
