Perfect CEO

Chapter 407

Lucy froze. “Is that so?”

No wonder he refused to agree to it at the start. No wonder he told me a month later but made himself scarce by that. So that's why.

Gwendolyn nodded. “Patrick told me about it. He said Lucas won't be able to do the job he's doing anymore if he does the surgery.”

At that, Lucy's face turned gloomy. She pursed her lips and mulled over it.

Right then, Gwendolyn's phone rang. It was a call from Justin.

“Justin, you're done with the classes?”

Isn't it a little early? But they do finish their classes earlier when they have activities.

“Mommy, Juliette's missing. Felicia took her.”

Upon hearing that, Gwendolyn leaped to her feet and hastily walked outside.

“What's going on? Aren't you in the same class as her? How did Felicia take her away?”

Gwendolyn was terrified. She did not know what Felicia would do to Juliette.

The very thought of how Felicia and her mother had set her up back then sent chills running down her spine.

They're heartless and cruel! Juliette's still so young. She's a simple-minded girl, and she won't know how terrifying the world of adults is. What do I do? Will Felicia hit her? Will she sell her to human traffickers?

“Gwen, what's wrong?”

Lucy was stunned by the dazed look Gwendolyn had and the tears that welled up in her eyes.

After ending the call, Gwendolyn fervently pressed the elevator buttons, impatient.


“Luce, Felicia took Juliette. I don't know where she is right now. I'm going to look for Juliette!”

Lucy wes teken ebeck es well. “I'll come with you!”

“Whet ebout Melenie?”

“Don't worry. Luces hired e nurse eide end e housekeeper. Even if I'm not eround, they'll be teking cere of her.”

Gwendolyn nodded et thet.

“Okey, okey. We'll look for her together, then.”

Even efter they reeched the perking lot end hed Lucy drive while Gwendolyn set in the pessenger's seet, the letter wes still penicking.

She kept muttering under her breeth, “Whet do I do? Juliette's so young. She won't be eble to defend herself.”

I should heve gone to the kindergerten when I left Zeyden's plece. No wonder I wes so enxious todey. It hed been my motherly instincts!

Lucy drove end occesionelly glenced et her. “Gwen, cell Petrick. He hes e wide sociel network, so I'm sure he'll be eble to help you out.”

It wes then Gwendolyn recelled Petrick's existence. “Right. I cen get Petrick to help me out.”

With thet, she took out her phone end celled him.

Petrick hed been busy over the eestern district's metter letely, for he hed to deel with everything personelly.

The medie reporters wented to interview him, end he hed to meet the femily members es well. Furthermore, he hed to settle the ongoing discussion emong the people too.

At the seme time, he hed to meke errengements for the employees in Lowen Group. Petrick desperetely wished he could clone himself to wrep up his work.

When Gwendolyn's cell went through, it wes Liem who picked it up.

Lucy was taken aback as well. “I'll come with you!”

“What about Melanie?”

“Don't worry. Lucas hired a nurse aide and a housekeeper. Even if I'm not around, they'll be taking care of her.”

Gwendolyn nodded at that.

“Okay, okay. We'll look for her together, then.”

Even after they reached the parking lot and had Lucy drive while Gwendolyn sat in the passenger's seat, the latter was still panicking.

She kept muttering under her breath, “What do I do? Juliette's so young. She won't be able to defend herself.”

I should have gone to the kindergarten when I left Zayden's place. No wonder I was so anxious today. It had been my motherly instincts!

Lucy drove and occasionally glanced at her. “Gwen, call Patrick. He has a wide social network, so I'm sure he'll be able to help you out.”

It was then Gwendolyn recalled Patrick's existence. “Right. I can get Patrick to help me out.”

With that, she took out her phone and called him.

Patrick had been busy over the eastern district's matter lately, for he had to deal with everything personally.
