Chapter 575 Downright Mortifying

The instant those words rang out, the air was suddenly sucked out of the room. Gwendolyn felt that she should have remained unconscious for a while longer. Gah! Why did I rouse so quickly?

Suzanne blinked her big eyes. “What's horizontal tango? Did you overtax yourself while dancing at home last night?”

She was at a total loss, with puzzlement written all over her face.

Conversely, Zayden's expression was dark, as black as thunder.

If he were not pretending to be blind right then, he might have just spun on his heel and stalked off.

The doctor swept a gaze over Zayden before snickering.

“Well, you'll understand that in the future.”

Gwendolyn hastily slid off the hospital bed. “P-Please excuse me.”

After saying that, she sprinted out of the consultation room at lightning speed as though the hounds of hell were on her heels.

Turning to Zayden beside her, Suzanne remarked, “Gwen's face was bright red, Mr. Surrington. She seemed very much shy.”

“Shut up!” Zayden roared lowly.

Is she really that naïve? Never mind if she's entirely ignorant, but she keeps asking questions! All it's doing is further embarrassing everyone and worsening the matter earlier, vexing me all the more!

“Okay.”

Suzanne was utterly confused at that reproach. Nonetheless, she did not dare object and could only go over and support him.

“Let's go after Gwen, Mr. Surrington! She's dead tired and might just pass out again.”

Hearing that, Zayden rolled his eyes. Good Lord! Is it going to kill her to remain silent?

Gwendolyn stood by the window in the waiting area outside, using the cool breeze to cool off the heat on her face.

Gosh, it was downright mortifying just now! Admittedly, I... I overtaxed myself a bit last night.

Patrick's stamina was too impressive, and she wanted to leave him an unforgettable night. In the end, they stayed up the entire night.

She then hurried home at the break of dawn, so she did not sleep a wink.

Hugging her arms around herself, she inhaled deeply.

It's all in the past, Gwendolyn Ashton. Don't think about it anymore. Henceforth, you and Patrick will be going your separate ways.

Patrick's family did not agree to their relationship and she did not want to disappoint her grandfather, let alone abandon Zayden. They were not meant to be together. She merely wished for him to be happy.

As for herself, she felt that there was no hope of happiness for her.

Ever since she was born, she had no mother by her side. Her stepmother and stepsister had always treated her badly. Later, they even ruined her life. Yet, she had no evidence at all.

She could not even sue them. She had a lousy lot in life, and she had resigned herself to her fate.

Suzanne came out of the consultation room while supporting Zayden. “Mr. Surrington is here, Gwen. Let's go and visit your grandpa!”

Gwendolyn dropped her arms, her expression having reverted to its usual calmness as she headed toward them.

“Let's go!”

Zayden noticed that she was seemingly not the least bit guilty.

She has changed so much that I almost can't recognize her anymore. She's my fiancée, not only having accepted my ring but also having agreed to my proposal. But then, she still went to bed with Patrick!

Fury blazed within him.

His pursed lips betrayed his emotions. It went without saying that Suzanne did not notice anything.

On the contrary, Gwendolyn perceived it. The man had been exceedingly gentle in the past. Never had she seen him angry or lose his temper.

That day, however, she sensed a chill emanating from him.

She turned around to avoid looking at him, not wanting to brood over the matter.

Without warning, Zayden grabbed her hand. “Come and support me instead, Gwen.”

He shook Suzanne's hand off. A trace of disappointment crept into Suzanne, but Gwendolyn had already won her over completely by then.

She was comfortable with Gwendolyn, finding the latter a decent person who inspired a sense of trust in her.

Since she's going to be Mr. Surrington's wife soon, she can take care of him. Besides, I'll get to relax. So long as I'm allowed to stay in the house, I'm willing to do anything!

Gwendolyn took Zayden's arm, upon which he clutched her wrist and hissed through gritted teeth, “You had sex with him?”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
