Perfect CEO

Gwendolyn's expression took a slight turn when she heard that.

“It's okay, Zayden. We used to do kickboxing together, so there's no need for them to learn this stuff anymore.”

The boys were still young, and she didn't feel comfortable letting them take so many classes on fighting.

Zayden's gaze turned icy. “They're boys. This is what they should be learning. It's so that they can keep the girls in their lives safe. How else will they protect their mother and sister?”

Justin and Julian exchanged glances.

“Okay, we'll go,” Julian said calmly.

Truthfully, they were keen on such activities; they simply never expressed their interests in the past because they were worried their mother couldn't afford their classes.

They didn't want to burden Gwendolyn too much.

However, now that Zayden was presenting them such an offer, they didn't want to say no.

Gwendolyn pursed her lips and said nothing more.

At that moment, Suzanne emerged from the kitchen, her doe eyes sparkling as she grinned.

“Food's ready, Mr. Surrington! Camille cooked up a feast!”

She then came over and took Juliette by the hand. “Let's eat, Juliette!”

Given her childlike personality, it was only natural that she got along well with kids.

The few of them headed into the dining room and ate together.

Suzanne constantly glanced at Zayden while chewing on a chicken drumstick.

It had been a while since the man stopped by her room at night. She wasn't used to that and was aching to know why.

Yet, she dared not ask and could only steal glances at him.

Noticing that, Zayden helped Gwendolyn fill her plate.

“Have some more.”

Gwendolyn returned the gesture. “You should eat more too.”

Zayden smiled blissfully in response.

The piece of chicken in Suzanne's hand suddenly didn't taste as good anymore.

Upon taking another bite and finding it unappetizing, she put it down, refusing to eat it further.

After dinner, Gwendolyn took the three children out for a walk. When they returned, she brought Juliette away for a shower.

Meanwhile, Suzanne washed the dishes and cleaned up the dining room with Camille.

The two later came out and saw Zayden sitting on the couch watching some financial news.

Camille was secretly pleased. Now that Mr. Surrington's eyes have gotten better, Gwen wouldn't have to tend to him anymore.

“You don't have to follow me anymore, Suzanne. I'm going to wash the kids' clothes. You can rest now.”

She looks pretty young, and it seems as if she doesn't know much about anything. Ever since she came over today, she's been following me around and helping me with the housework. She's awfully hardworking! She's also so cheerful and doesn't seem to have any worries—just like a child.

Suzanne nodded. “Okay.”

After Camille had gone upstairs, Suzanne dashed toward Zayden, sat on his lap, and wrapped her arms around his neck.
