Perfect CEO

Chapter 663 We Are Here With You

Upon hearing this, Zayden grabbed her hand immediately.

“Did I say anything about a divorce?” He then leaned into her ear, whispering, “If you ever bring up that word again, I'll send your three kids out of the country, and you'll never see them again.”

Gwendolyn stared at him icily. He was becoming more terrifying with each passing day. NôvelDrama.Org © content.

He used to treat only her like this, but now, he was starting to bring the children into the picture too.

The woman clenched her teeth. “You wouldn't dare...”

“You know how close the kids are to me, Gwen. I can do whatever I want to them with a snap of a finger.”

Gwendolyn felt her stomach drop. He's right. He watched them grow up.

She had also told her own children that Zayden was their savior, so they had to always treat him well and respect him.

But he's become such a monster. Can I tell them that? They're still so young. Would they be able to take it? Hell, even I can't! How did he end up like this?

She had never resisted when he hit her simply because she couldn't accept the truth of the situation. It was only after feeling the pain that realization dawned on her—Zayden was no longer the person he once was.

Is he doing all this today just to threaten me not to leave?

Angeline turned to her.

“How could you bring up a divorce, Gwen? Zayden's such an amazing young man. He's never even thought about divorcing you, but here you are, wanting to leave him?”

Everyone turned to Gwendolyn in an instant.

“That's wrong of you to say that, Gwen. You hid the fact that you have children, so we simply expressed our discontentment with that. You didn't have to go so far as to talk about wanting to divorce him.”

“Yeah! What's with your threats? Do you think you're some maiden surrounded by other men? You will have a hard time getting married again if you leave Zayden.”

“Just be grateful that you got to be married into the Surrington family!”

Gwendolyn didn't have the power or courage to retaliate. Her children had always been her Achilles heel, and she would never let them be in any form of danger.

Zayden smirked internally when he saw what was happening.

“Don't think I don't know what you're up to, Gwendolyn. You're thinking of leaving me now that Patrick's woken up, aren't you? Well, that's never going to happen.”

He suddenly rose to his feet and held onto her.

An insidious smile crept across his face as he pulled her in.

“That's enough, everyone. Gwen is the woman I love most, and now, she's my wife. Her children are my children, so please treat them with respect.” He then turned to Hans. “This is all I wanted to say, Grandpa. Congratulations on having three more great-grandchildren. The Surrington family has expanded!”

Hans was so exasperated that he nearly passed out.

“Calm down, Hans!” Greta said, holding onto him. “Zay's just lost himself over a woman for now.”

“You ingrate! Are you trying to give your grandfather a heart attack?” Soren bellowed at his son.

Juliette began to cry in fright. “Mommy! Stop picking on my mommy!”

The two boys consoled her immediately, “Don't cry, Juliette. We're here with you.”

The poor girl had never been in such a situation where they were under the watchful eyes of people who also wouldn't stop criticizing her mother.

Gwendolyn's face clouded over as she walked toward Juliette and wiped her tears.

“Let's get out of here.”

She took her daughter's hand and left, with Justin and Julian following them closely.

The boys didn't care about such things at all.

If it weren't for Zayden, they probably would have left with their mother and sister long ago. However, this man was their savior, and Gwendolyn had told them to respect him and his family.

“Why hasn't Patrick come and get us?” Julian asked the moment they arrived outside.

No one would dare treat us like this with him around, but why doesn't he know anything?
