Super CEO Daddy

Chapter 60

Gwendolyn followed Tommy to sign the agreement. Not long after, the money was credited to her account.

Before she left, she scanned around and noticed that it was quite a legitimate company. It had a spacious office space, and the sign at the entrance was eye-catching.

The name of the financial institution was Simple Loan Company, which sounded down-to-earth.

After accompanying Gwendolyn to the parking lot, Tommy said, “Drive carefully, Gwen. I have to go to work now.”

She nodded, having heard Tommy's mother saying that he had found a decent job. Looks like it's true.

“Thank you, Tommy. I'll treat you to a meal soon.”

After finishing her words, she started the car engine and bade farewell to him.

When she arrived at the hospital, she went straight to the ward and saw a nurse give Melanie an injection. The girl cried in despair, which was a distressing scene to witness.

Gwendolyn hurriedly walked toward Melanie and coaxed her with Lucy.

Due to chemotherapy, Melanie's hair was gone, and she had become bald. However, she still had a pretty face. Perhaps she had gotten too thin, her eyes were exceptionally large and bright in contrast.

Lucy's eyes were teary. As Melanie's mother, it tore her apart to see her daughter in so much pain.

Fortunately, Melanie fell asleep right after the injection, no longer making a fuss.

Seeing this, Lucy heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she turned to Gwendolyn and threw herself into the latter's arms.

“How I wish I was the one suffering in pain, Gwen.” She cried silently as she spoke.

“How I wish I was the one suffering in pain, Gwen.” She cried silently as she spoke.

She had cried umpteen times over Melanie's illness.

“Dear God, I'm begging you! Please save my child. I'm willing to use twenty years of my life in exchange for her recovery, please!” Lucy pleaded softly.

Gwendolyn's breath hitched in her throat when she heard that. She patted Lucy's back lightly, calming the woman down.

Lucy cried for some time before regaining her composure. She then retracted herself from Gwendolyn's arms.

Rubbing her reddened eyes, she asked, “Gwen, haven't you found a job yet?”

She thought that Gwendolyn had not found herself a job because the latter was here this early. Still, she did not want Gwendolyn to work at Night City anymore.

Gwendolyn took out the card from her purse carefully and said, “Luce, here's five hundred grand. I borrowed the money with help from my neighbor's son. The processing fee is ten percent of the amount. It's not too high. Use this money to pay Melanie's medical fees first. You can return it to me after you sell your house.”

Looking at the card, Lucy sniffled, having the urge to weep once again.

“Thank you so much, Gwen!”

At present, all of Lucy's relatives were avoiding her, fearing that she would ask to borrow money from them. Thankfully, she still had Gwendolyn.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

The latter beamed. “Why are you being so polite? Just take it, Luce. I'll be here accompanying Melanie. Hurry up and pay now.”

Lucy accepted the card and left to make payment.

Meanwhile, Gwendolyn tucked the blanket in for Melanie. Looking at the girl's peaceful expression, Gwendolyn believed that Melanie would certainly be a beauty once she grew up.

She had already informed Lucy that she hoped Melanie would become her daughter-in-law in the future. She believed that either Julian or Justin would take good care of the girl.

After Lucy paid the fees, she returned to the ward immediately.

Her mood finally turned better. Besides, she was holding an IOU in her hand.

“You must take this, Gwen. We have to be clear on financial matters.”

Initially, Gwendolyn wanted to reject it. However, she gave in as she wished to give Lucy peace of mind.

After chatting for a while, Gwendolyn stood up and left.

She got into her car, finally willing to drive after Patrick assured her that he would give her an allowance for car fuel. He has so much money anyway. I'm more than willing to help him spend some of it!

At that moment, her phone rang. As she had been looking for a job, she felt that it could be from a prospective employer. Hence, she quickly picked it up and answered, “Hello?”

“Hi, is this Gwendolyn Ashton? We're calling from Cute Pets. Do you have time for a walk-in interview today?”
