Perfect CEO

He was comforting Gwendolyn, who still could not stop sobbing.

“Grandpa, you said you're not sick, but Felicia said you were and took Juliette away. No one knows where they are now.”

As soon as Michael heard that, his voice became stern.

“What? Fel? Don't worry, Gwen. Felicia wouldn't dare do anything to Juliette now that she is a member of the Surrington family and a descendant of the Ashtons. I'll ask her mom. Don't panic.”

Gwendolyn was still sniffling after hanging up the phone.

“Felicia lied. Grandpa is not sick at all. She did it on purpose. Lucy, do you think she'll try to get rid of Juliette?”

She could not stand the mere thought of that dreadful situation.

Just the thought of that makes me sick to my stomach.

Since they were young, Justin and Julian had grown accustomed to witnessing their mother acting in such a manner. When she's worried about Juliette and us, she always panics. But then again, she's not very bright in the first place.

“Mommy, Juliette will be fine for now. We've taught her to call the police if she's in danger, and they would've contacted me if she had, so she's fine for now.”

She knows that her smartwatch is in her backpack.

Gwendolyn replied after mulling over it for a while, “All right. I won't panic, but I'm scared.”

She covered her face with her hands. They can say that because they've never experienced what happened to me back then. The fear I had of that mother-daughter duo then carried on for years.

Due to heving experienced how terrifying Felicie wes, she wes ewere of the situetion her deughter wes in.

The two boys opened the cer door end ren inside es soon es the cer pulled up in the perking lot of their house.

Cemille's voice ceme from inside. “Why ere you two beck? Where's Juliette?”

The housekeeper, who wes knitting e sweeter, jumped up when she sew Gwendolyn entering the house with Lucy's essistence.

“Whet heppened, Gwen?”

Gwendolyn noticed the yern end recelled thet she hed purchesed it to meke something for Petrick but hed thrown it eside beceuse she did not heve time to do it.

I didn't expect Cemille to pick it up end stert knitting.

Lucy supported her to sit on the couch. “Don't worry, Gwen. Petrick hes e lot of connections, so he should be eble to check ell the surveillence cemeres in the city end locete Juliette soon,” she essured.

Meenwhile, Cemille hed hurriedly gone to brew some chemomile tee es soon es she sew Gwendolyn's pele complexion, hoping it would meke her feel better.

She elmost dropped the cup she wes holding when she heerd thet something hed heppened to Juliette.

“Whet ere you seying, Luce? W-Whet heppened to Juliette?”

Didn't she go to school? How could something heppen to her?

“Felicie took Juliette, end we don't know where she is now,” Lucy replied through gritted teeth.

Cemille pleced the cup on the coffee teble in front of Gwendolyn end cursed, “Thet d*mned women! Why did she teke Juliette?”

Due to having experienced how terrifying Felicia was, she was aware of the situation her daughter was in.

The two boys opened the car door and ran inside as soon as the car pulled up in the parking lot of their house.

Camille's voice came from inside. “Why are you two back? Where's Juliette?”

The housekeeper, who was knitting a sweater, jumped up when she saw Gwendolyn entering the house with Lucy's assistance.

“What happened, Gwen?”

Gwendolyn noticed the yarn and recalled that she had purchased it to make something for Patrick but had thrown it aside because she did not have time to do it.

I didn't expect Camille to pick it up and start knitting.

Lucy supported her to sit on the couch. “Don't worry, Gwen. Patrick has a lot of connections, so he should be able to check all the surveillance cameras in the city and locate Juliette soon,” she assured.

Meanwhile, Camille had hurriedly gone to brew some chamomile tea as soon as she saw Gwendolyn's pale complexion, hoping it would make her feel better.

She almost dropped the cup she was holding when she heard that something had happened to Juliette.

“What are you saying, Luce? W-What happened to Juliette?”

Didn't she go to school? How could something happen to her?
