Super CEO Daddy

Chapter 14



Gwendolyn was a little dumbfounded by the manager's words. She thought that everyone was there to ridicule her, and the
manager would berate her before firing her.
She could not believe that everyone would behave so respectfully toward her.
Hearing the manager mention Patrick, Gwendolyn lifted her brows in question and turned to Lucy.
Lucy took a puff of cigarette and smiled as she arched her brows at Gwendolyn.
That was the way the world worked. Nobody would dare to bully a man if he had an influential figure to support him.
As Gwendolyn walked out of Night City, Lucy followed to send her off. Both women met in Night City. Lucy was a single mother,
and her daughter was diagnosed with leukemia. Her husband had eloped with his mistress. Hence, she had no choice but to
work in Night City.
She wanted to earn enough money so that her daughter could receive the treatment that she needed.
Since the cab that Gwendolyn called had not arrived, both of them chatted by the roadside.
A faint smile was on her face as Lucy helped Gwendolyn to tighten the scarf around her neck.
“Gwen, I can tell that Patrick is interested in you. You should grab hold of this opportunity to win his heart,” she advised.
Both women had been living a tough life. Thus, Lucy understood that so long as Gwendolyn had Patrick with her, she would not
suffer anymore.
She wished for Gwendolyn to be happy.
Gwendolyn sighed and said, “To be frank, I'm not close to Patrick at all. In fact, we might become enemies in the future.”
By marrying Felicia, he'll be considered my enemy.
Gwendolyn's face was a little red on the cheeks from being cold. Hearing her words, Lucy caressed Gwendolyn's face and
reassured, “Gwen, trust me. As long as you're willing, that man will be yours, and yours only.”
At that moment, the cab arrived. Before going into the car, Gwendolyn turned and glanced once more at Lucy. She realized that
the latter had gotten even slimmer. During the day, Lucy was at the hospital taking care of her daughter. At night, she would be

working at Night City.
Gwendolyn felt a tinge of pity for Lucy.
“Lucy, don't forget to rest. I'll bring Juliette and the boys to visit Melanie in a few days' time,” she commented.
Lucy let out a small smile and replied, “I will. Be careful on the way back.”
Upon reaching home, Gwendolyn immediately went to take a shower. However, as she was showering, she started to feel unwell
and sneezed incessantly.
After taking some cold medication, she headed to bed.
I must have caught a cold while walking back to Night City from the parking lot. Hopefully, the cold medication will be effective...
The next day, the three children got up at seven o'clock in the morning to have breakfast. Usually, Gwendolyn would send them
to school, but she was having a severe headache that morning. Furthermore, her body was throbbing in pain, and a fit of
coughing wracked her body.
Seeing that she had not gotten up, Juliette ran into her room.
“Gwen, hurry up... We are going to be late,” she urged.
Gwendolyn opened her eyes. The throbbing headache was growing worse by the second, and she was even starting to feel a
little dizzy. With a hoarse voice, she said, “Juliette, Camille will send you guys to school instead...”
She trailed off and let out a few more uncontrollable coughs.
Noticing Gwendolyn's discomfort, Juliette reached out and touched her forehead.
“Gwen, I think you have a fever. You're burning up!” she exclaimed.
At that moment, Justin and Julian came into the room. Seeing that Gwendolyn was unwell, they said, “Mommy, get up. We'll
send you to the hospital.”
Julian reached over and felt her forehead. Feeling how hot it was, he went to take a thermometer and measured her
temperature.

Gwendolyn offered a faint smile and mumbled, “Don't worry about me. I'm fine. Go to school. I'll go to the hospital by myself after
I get up.”
Juliette shook her head and insisted, “No way, we will go with you.”
Seeing how sensible the kids were, Gwendolyn felt a sense of comfort.
“Go to school. Seeing the three of you focus on your studies puts me in a jovial mood. When I'm happy, I'll recover quickly!” she
coaxed.
Seeing how adamant she was, Justin brought her some medication and left with his siblings in tow.
However, just before he left, he reminded, “Mommy, remember to take your medicine.”
Camille brought the kids to school. Their school was not far, and it was within walking distance of their home.
Suddenly, an idea came to Juliette's mind. If only Mr. Handsome can take care of Mommy...
She tugged at Julian's hand and said, “Julian, send Patrick a message. Tell him our address and the passcode to the door. Find
a way to make him take care of Gwen.”
