Perfect CEO

Chapter 274

Justin scoffed coldly, “She would rather stay single than marry you.”

Worry flitted across Juliette's face when she noticed they were about to start arguing.

“Justin, Julian! Mr. Lowen is our guest today. Mommy will be very angry when she finds out you guys are acting this way toward him.”

Hearing their sister's words, Justin and Julian swallowed the barrage of comments they were about to say.

Patrick was stuck in a dilemma as he did not know how to let the boys accept him.

He was totally clueless as to how to coax a child.

At this moment, Gwendolyn called out, “Dinner is ready.”

Juliette wore her slippers and extended her hand.

“Mr. Lowen, let's go eat!”

Patrick rose to his feet and took Juliette's hand in his. As their height disparity was too vast, it made the girl look especially tiny in comparison.

The whole family sat at the dining table to dig in.

Gwendolyn placed some food on her children's plates before adding some to Patrick's.

“Mr. Lowen, thank you for your ingredients.”


Patrick was eating gracefully when he heard her words. His dark gaze drew to her. For some reason, Gwendolyn's heart started pounding when she sensed his gaze on her.

She would become jittery as long as he glanced at her now.

It made her feel utterly sheepish.

Right then, her phone rang. She answered it when she saw that it was Zayden calling.

“Hello.”

“I'm standing outside your door, Gwen. Justin said you guys are dining at the new house today, so I came to join in the fun.”

The next moment, the doorbell rang.

“Come and get the door for me!”

Gwendolyn glimpsed at Patrick. She felt a little panicked that Zayden was here at this juncture.

All she hoped was that Zayden would not talk any nonsense later. After all, she had only said those things in the Ashton residence for the sake of the children.

Camille heard the doorbell and said, “I'll get it.”

Since they had only just moved here today, she was slightly surprised that there was a guest.

Not long after, she led Zayden into the dining room.

“Gwen, Mr. Surrington is here.”

All of a sudden, the dining room felt like a freezer due to the drastic drop in temperature.

Patrick stared frostily at the man who had just entered. Both of them glared murderously at each other.

Camille prepared a set of cutlery for Zayden as he sat on an empty seat.

“Sorry for being late,” he stated flatly.

Julian gave him a faint smile. “Daddy, there will always be dinner for you here even if you're late.”

Justin, too, greeted, “Daddy.”

Juliette widened her eyes in shock. When did Mr. Zayden become our daddy? I just called Mr. Lowen that! Am I supposed to call Mr. Zayden Daddy now too?

She hurriedly lowered her head and decided to focus on eating instead.
