Perfect CEO

Chapter 572

Gwendolyn nodded, released Zayden, and called Harry at the side.

Soon, Harry accepted the call. “Ms. Gwendolyn.”

“Are you at the hospital right now, Harry? We're outside of Grandpa's ward, but the bodyguards won't allow us to enter.”

“Unfortunately, I'm not there, Ms. Gwendolyn. There's a bit of an issue with my family, so I'm heading home right now. I'm currently at the airport. Perhaps you can call your other family members instead.”

“I see. I'll call them, then.” Gwendolyn hung up and let out a sigh. I think I know what's going on. Even after Grandpa has revealed my identity and welcomed me home, it's still difficult to meet him.

Returning to the entrance, she asked, “Who's inside right now?”

The bodyguard replied, “Mrs. Ashton and Ms. Felicia.”

Just as I expected, that mother and daughter will definitely act exceptionally filial right now. After all, Candace was originally a mistress, and Felicia is now considered a legitimate family member. They're clearly afraid that they won't receive anything once Grandpa passes away.

Gwendolyn knitted her brows and said, “Tell them that I'm here.”

One of the bodyguards stepped into the ward while she returned to Zayden's side. “I'm sorry for making you wait this long while standing, Zayden.” I bet a scion like him has never been denied entry before.

Zayden appeared calm. “It's fine no matter how long I have to wait.”

His eyes darkened, however. I'll remember that pair of mother and daughter in the ward.

When the bodyguard walked into the ward, he saw Felicia half-lying on the couch scrolling through an online store. Candace was sitting on the couch, allowing her daughter's head to lie on her.

“That bag looks nice, Fel. When will it be released?”

“Next month. There are only five in the world. I'll do my best to grab one when the time comes.”

Candace nodded. “That one looks good, too.”

Felicia smiled. “You're getting more and more generous, Mom. Are you planning to buy four limited-edition bags like this in one go?”

“What do you mean four? Didn't I say I only want one?” Candace frowned. Four will cost tens of millions! As rich as we are, we can't spend money like this. Besides, Old Mr. Ashton is sick right now. When the time to split the inheritance comes, there's a chance Zachary's position as the CEO may be snatched away! Gwendolyn, Zayden, and her three children outnumber our family by two! This means more than half of the inheritance will go to her family. Based on how fond Old Mr. Ashton is of Gwendolyn now, it's likely he may even grant her control of the company!

“Aren't you going to buy it for me? I want it too!” Felicia whined.
