Chapter 719 He Has Come

Gwendolyn did not quite understand what he meant. “Isn't Suzanne at home? She isn't with me, and I won't chase her away, either.”

She was still hoping that Suzanne would win Zayden over so that he would willingly give up on her.

“Drop the act, Gwendolyn. You drove Suzanne away when you found out that she slept with me.”

Zayden was currently inside Suzanne's room, and he found out that Suzanne had taken her favorite things with her when she left.

As he clenched his fists, he asked, “Where are you? Get back here right now.”

Gwendolyn took a deep breath. What a fickle-minded man. He was so gentle yesterday but so gloomy today. His mood changes quicker than a man can blink.

Checking the time, Gwendolyn then asked the children, “Are you done with your food? It's time for us to go back.”

Juliette was eating a drumstick, and Patrick had a drumstick on his plate as well. Gwendolyn had given the children one drumstick each, and she also made sure that Patrick had one as well.

“Eat up, Mr. Lowen! The drumstick tastes wonderful!”

The young girl was not listening to her mother at all.

The two boys were already done with their meal. Putting down their utensils, they turned to look at their sister and found her still digging into her food happily.

Melanie pouted. “Ms. Gwen, please let us play together for a little longer! I would like to have a sleepover with Juliette tonight.”

She was reluctant to part with her friend, and Lucy thought that was a good idea, too.

“Gwen, why don't you head back first? Leave the kids to me,” Patrick said.

“Finish your food first. We'll leave after that,” came Gwendolyn's response.

Kevin agreed with the others, however.

“Gwen, you only had a few bites of your food. Why are you in such a rush to head back? Is Zayden going to be mad at you?”

He had heard about how Zayden remained by Gwendolyn's side for six years, so he assumed that Zayden would be nice to her. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Gwendolyn's expression changed. She could tell that Zayden was upset when she was on the call with him earlier.

If she did not return, he would definitely fly into a rage.

Raking her gaze across the children, she thought about how the man might take action against them. Biting the bullet, she said, “Lucy, I'll be leaving them three here tonight. I have to leave now.”

With that said, she stood up and hurried away.

Estelle called out to her, “Slow down, Gwen!”

Lucy got up and rushed out after her.

“Gwen, finish your food before leaving!”

In no time, Lucy led Gwendolyn back into the dining room and pressed her back down on her seat by the table.

“What's the rush? Finish your food before making your way back,” she said with pity written all over her face.

Lucy felt terrible for Gwendolyn. The former knew Zayden well and was aware that the man would not make things difficult for her.

Gwendolyn pursed her lips momentarily before picking up her fork.

“Gwen, have some beef. It's cooked just right,” said Estelle as she placed some food on Gwendolyn's plate.

In the blink of an eye, her plate was filled with food. At that, she flashed a smile at everyone around the table before digging in.

Yet, everyone could tell that she was distracted.

Initially, Patrick, felt content tasting the food she made for him, thinking he had a special place in her heart. However, he didn't enjoy the food as much as he did moments ago when he saw her heavyhearted demeanor.

Putting down his fork, he then slowly sipped some water from the glass as he observed her.

Even Justin and Julian noticed something amiss about their mother by then. They guessed that Zayden was the one who called her.

Julian placed more food on his mother's plate and said, “Mommy, eat more.”

Touched by the way her son showed her concern, she bobbed her head.

No matter what happens, I will protect my children.

As she ate, she kept her head lowered to text Kevin.

Gwendolyn: How did the training go? I need them to be on duty by tonight.

Gwendolyn needed a large number of bodyguards to protect the children immediately, so she couldn't wait any longer.

Kev: Sure. I'll make arrangements to send them over tonight.

At that, Gwendolyn sighed in relief. She was far more at ease knowing that the bodyguards Kevin trained were by her children's side.

Right then, Zayden called again.

Gwendolyn picked up the call. “Hello?”

Thinking that he was calling to urge her to come home, she parted her lips to tell him that she was on the way.

To her surprise, he said coldly, “Come out.”
