Chapter 657 Worse Than A Child
Michael did not finish his sentence. He took a careful look at the two boys and muttered to himself, “They're so alike.”
Gwendolyn glanced at her two sons. They are not Zayden's sons, so of course, they don't look like him. It's just that Grandpa has been deceived by Zayden, just like I have. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
The thought of it upset her.
“Grandpa, they're still kids. They'll look more like him when they grow up.”
Michael nodded.
“You're right. Maybe they'll look like him when they grow up.”
Naturally, the two kids understood what Michael meant. Of course we look like Patrick. We're his sons. But why doesn't he and Mommy know about this?
As children, they did not understand the world of adults.
After having dinner with Michael, the four of them left and went back to Zayden's mansion.
Camille greeted them as soon as they entered the house.
“Didn't you go to the banquet? Why are you back so early?”
Juliette pouted. “We didn't. We visited Great-grandpa in the hospital instead. We had fun too!”
Then, she glanced at Gwendolyn. I won't be so willful anymore in the future. It seems that going to Zay's house makes things difficult for her.
Camille looked at Gwendolyn, who did not seem to be very happy. She also noticed that the latter did not like to smile anymore ever since she married Zayden.
Camille sighed. Sure enough, a woman still has to marry the person she likes. Otherwise, it's impossible for her to be happy.
“Juliette, I'll take you upstairs to take a shower. It's almost time for bed.”
Juliette nodded. “Okay. We're in the class for older kids now, so we can't be late.”
Her sweet voice echoed around the house.
Camille chuckled. “You're right, Juliette.”
Justin and Julian were in a good mood that day. They knew that Patrick was the only person who could make Gwendolyn happy again.
Now that they even knew that Patrick was their biological father, they hoped that they could be together.
Justin poured a glass of water, went to the living room, and put the glass in front of his mother.
He sat down on the couch and watched her drink the glass of water.
Gwendolyn turned to glance at him. “Thanks for the water.”
“Mommy, I actually asked Great-grandpa, and he wants you to be happy!”
When Gwendolyn heard that, mixed feelings swirled in her heart.
She bit her lip and said, “I know.”
“So, Mommy, you actually don't have to force yourself to do something you don't like for any of us. Just be yourself and strive for the happiness you want! We will always be there for you,” Julian said as he stuck out his head from behind the couch.
Gwendolyn smiled for the first time in forever, making both her sons breathe a sigh of relief.
She planted a kiss on their cheeks. “Thank you, boys. I know what you mean. I'll do my best. Now go to bed.”
Justin got up and walked up the stairs with Julian.
“Mommy, you should go to bed early too.”
“Women should go to bed early!”
Her sons' words filled her heart with warmth. Suddenly, she realized that the cloud of gloom in her had disappeared.
She felt a lot better. I'm worse than a child sometimes. They are more clever than I am and understand the meaning of our existence better than me.
Gwendolyn sat in silence for a while. When she checked the time, it was already half past ten at night.
Zayden had not come home. She went back to her room, took a shower, and applied a facial mask before going to bed.
In the middle of the night, the bedroom door was kicked open, causing her to sit up in fright.
She saw Zayden entering the room and loosening his tie. She could smell the strong stench of alcohol on him.
Gwendolyn wrapped the quilt tightly around her and asked, “Are you drunk?”
