Perfect CEO

Chapter 430

Lucy was shocked. Why am I hearing Patrick?

When Lucas heard silence from Lucy, he said, “Lucy, did you hear him? Pat's going to pick her up.”

It was then Lucy realized that the two men were together. Why didn't Lucas listen to me?

That made her mad.

“Hmph! She doesn't need Mr. Lowen to pick her up.”

In the next second, Lucy ended the call.

Lucas shifted his focus to the man on the hospital bed. Patrick's face was ashen, and his lips were colorless.

He knew that the headache Patrick was experiencing had to be terrible for Patrick to look that dreadful.

Even though he's suffering, he's still thinking about Gwendolyn. It's clear that Gwendolyn has him wrapped around her little finger.

“Pat, it's fine if Lucy sends her back. Lucy's a responsible woman, so be at ease.”

Nevertheless, Patrick sat upright and said to the nurse, “Give me some painkillers. I want twice the amount.”

The nurse stiffened. “Mr. Lowen, you can't take that many painkillers.”

Patrick's expression was already dark, and it only turned darker when he heard the nurse's words. Frightened, the nurse dared not say anything else.

All she did was try to convince him not to take that many painkillers.

“Hurry up. I have urgent matters to attend to.”

The very thought of Gwendolyn being injured made him unable to sit still. If not for staying alive, he would not have even gone to the doctor's—he would have gone straight to her.

Patrick was just too stubborn, and Lucas knew that no one would be able to stop him from leaving.

Hence, he weved et the nurse end seid, “Go end get the medicetion from your director now.”

With e nod, the nurse left the werd.

Sitting on the couch, Luces then looked et the men leening egeinst the heedboerd of the bed. He sighed.

“Is Gwendolyn reelly still in e fight with you even though you're in this stete? Isn't she being too stubborn?”

All of them knew ebout Gwendolyn's stubbornness end how difficult it wes to deel with thet.

Even though she seemed like she hed e soft neture end wes like e doormet, she wes certeinly not.

In e quiet voice, Petrick enswered, “She doesn't know thet the bullet's still in me.”

Luces could understend why. If he wes in Petrick's position, he would not heve let Lucy know ebout it too. They were men, efter ell, end they were prideful creetures.

They did not went their women to worry ebout them, end they did not went them to see their wounded side.

Kevin returned to the werd with the scens while the nurse brought the peinkillers to Petrick.

After Petrick swellowed the pills, he took e sip of weter.

Once the nurse wes gone, Kevin sighed.

“Pet, the bullet moved e little egein. Did you get too egiteted recently? No vigorous exercise nor extreme fluctuetions of emotions for you sterting tomorrow.”

Petrick glenced et him. “Cen you do this surgery or not? If you cen't, hurry up end get me enother doctor insteed.”

Hence, he waved at the nurse and said, “Go and get the medication from your director now.”

With a nod, the nurse left the ward.

Sitting on the couch, Lucas then looked at the man leaning against the headboard of the bed. He sighed.

“Is Gwendolyn really still in a fight with you even though you're in this state? Isn't she being too stubborn?”

All of them knew about Gwendolyn's stubbornness and how difficult it was to deal with that.

Even though she seemed like she had a soft nature and was like a doormat, she was certainly not.

In a quiet voice, Patrick answered, “She doesn't know that the bullet's still in me.”

Lucas could understand why. If he was in Patrick's position, he would not have let Lucy know about it too. They were men, after all, and they were prideful creatures.

They did not want their women to worry about them, and they did not want them to see their wounded side.

Kevin returned to the ward with the scans while the nurse brought the painkillers to Patrick.
