The harder Suzanne cried, the more broken-hearted she became. “I don't want to leave, Mr. Surrington.”
“You have to. It's not up for discussion.”
With that, Zayden got up and headed upstairs.
At that moment, Camille returned with the three children and could hear someone crying inside.
Juliette's eyes widened as she exclaimed, “Someone's crying. Is it Mommy?”
When the group began looking around, they found Suzanne crying her eyes out in the dining room.
Juliette ran up to her and asked, “Ms. Drache, why are you crying? Did you not get to eat the drumstick just now? I'll get Ms. Ziegler to make it for you. From now on, I won't fight you for it, so don't cry anymore, all right?”
The words caused Camille's heart to tighten.
She could see how well the children treated Suzanne but also recognized that all wasn't what it seemed with the latter.
She endeavors to become the lady of the house. What will happen to Gwendolyn, then?
Hence, she gave Justin and Julian a tug. “Take your sister upstairs.”
Sensing the reason for Camille's apprehension, Justin and Julian came forward and did as they were told.
Camille proceeded to clear the table and remarked, “Suzanne, there are certain actions that are just plain wrong. As a person, one has to have some principles. Gwen treats you like her sister, yet you attempt to steal her husband.”
Suzanne's eyes lit up as soon as she heard Camille's words.
“Steal her husband?” Since when am I stealing Gwendolyn's husband?
Does she not know what I mean?
While walking into the kitchen, Camille added, “What you're doing with Mr. Surrington is wrong. He can only do something like that with his wife, Gwen. By doing the same thing, it shows that you want to marry him.”
The girl seems clueless about the gravity of the situation.
Suzanne blinked as she stood behind Camille.
“What I'm doing with Mr. Surrington can only be done between him and his wife?”
As if she had begun to understand, Suzanne pursed her lips and stopped crying.
Meanwhile, Camille put the dishes into the sink and continued, “That's right. Your actions are tantamount to stealing someone else's husband. Doing so is against the law.”
Suzanne took a deep breath before replying, “I won't do it anymore.” She then turned and left the kitchen.
Watching her dejected silhouette, Camille figured that Suzanne's ignorance stemmed from the fact that she didn't have a mother to teach her.
I sure hope she knows what's right and what's wrong going forward.
The next afternoon, Patrick arrived at Zayden's mansion and parked his car at the entrance.
When he gave Justin a call, the latter answered right away.
“Mr. Lowen.”
“I'm right outside. You can come out now.”
Within a short while, Justin emerged with his younger siblings. The driver subsequently opened the door for them.
Patrick had ordered his driver to take the MPV that day. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Upon entering the vehicle, the children greeted, “Mr. Lowen.”
Juliette took the seat beside him. She wore a white princess dress and looked adorable with two ponytails tied by the side of her ears.
“It's been a long time since we saw you, Mr. Lowen.”
She gave his arm a hug and nuzzled her face against it like a puppy.
The icy look on Patrick's face was seemingly melted by the warmth her gesture brought him.
Just thinking that they were his children intensified the wonderful sensation he felt.
He gently gave her hair a tousle. “We'll be seeing each other every day going forward.”
Juliette responded with a sweet smile.
Meanwhile, Justin and Julian, who were seated at the back, exchanged glances. The underlying meaning of Patrick's words wasn't lost upon them.
Julian asked, “Mr. Lowen, where are you taking us today?”
Gwendolyn and Camille had no idea they were going out with Patrick, as they had told her that they were going over to a classmate's house to play.
Given Patrick and Gwendolyn's current relationship, their mother would definitely forbid them from going if she knew. Camille, in particular, would be even more vehement in her protests.
She would always remind them to greet Zayden as “Daddy” and treat him like their own father.
Nonetheless, the children were well aware that Patrick was their real father.
