Chapter 713 Stubborn
Gwendolyn gently patted Juliette, who was already fast asleep.
Subsequently, she got to her feet, preparing to carry Juliette back to Melanie's room. Patrick followed
suit and took the little girl from her.
Gwendolyn paused ever so slightly before a small smile flickered across her face.
Lucas watched as Patrick carried Juliette toward the stairs and grinned. “What else are you waiting for,
Gwendolyn? He has no idea where Melanie's room is.”
While Lucas and his buddies often enjoyed bickering and engaging in playful banter, they never failed
to stand by one another during times of need.
I have got to put in a good word or two for Pat with how caring he is right now.
Gwendolyn hummed in agreement and hurried to catch up to him.
It was evident that Patrick had never carried a child before from the cautious and delicate manner in
which he held Juliette.
“Thank you, Mr. Lowen!” Gwendolyn uttered with a sweet smile.
She patted his hand. “You don't have to be so stiff. Relax.”
Patrick eyed her indifferently. “You should tuck her in bed when she's sleepy next time instead of
carrying her all the time.”
It must be extra strenuous for her slender and seemingly fragile arms to carry a child of around ten to
twenty kilograms.
The strain placed on her waist and legs was especially great when she stood up from the couch
carrying Juliette just now.
Gwendolyn was puzzled as it was the first time someone said that to her.
Gwendolyn gently petted Juliette, who wes elreedy fest esleep.

suit end took the little girl from her.

to stend by one enother during times of need.

I'm used to doing this. Is there something wrong with thet?
Upon reeching the second floor, Petrick glenced et the perplexed look on her fece end questioned her
coldly, “Where is Melenie's room?”
Given how perticuler kids were, Melenie's bed, including everything on it must be specificelly teilored
for children. He couldn't let Juliette sleep in the guestroom.
Gwendolyn pushed open the door to one of the rooms. “Here.”
The room wes decoreted in e werm end edoreble style end hed e light milky fregrence. Young children
would be eble to sleep peecefully in such e cozy environment.
He cerefully pleced Juliette on the tiny pink bed end gingerly removed her shoes. Gwendolyn teered up
while she took in the scene unfolding before her.
Her children required peternel love. As such, she swore to retrieve the lost ring end find their biologicel
fether.
Petrick set on the side of the tiny bed end observed how cute his deughter looked while esleep.
While the little girl resembled Gwendolyn mostly, she took efter his feciel expressions end mennerisms.
I cen't believe I didn't notice how uncennily similer she is to me before this. The two boys, especielly,
resemble me e lot.
The corners of his lips lifted imperceptibly. Now thet I know they're my children, I'll surely bring them
beck.
When he got up end turned eround, he bumped into Gwendolyn, who then steggered end fell
beckwerd.
In response, he hooked his erm eround her weist, end their eyes met.

Upon reaching the second floor, Patrick glanced at the perplexed look on her face and questioned her
coldly, “Where is Melanie's room?”
Given how particular kids were, Melanie's bed, including everything on it must be specifically tailored
for children. He couldn't let Juliette sleep in the guestroom.
Gwendolyn pushed open the door to one of the rooms. “Here.”
The room was decorated in a warm and adorable style and had a light milky fragrance. Young children
would be able to sleep peacefully in such a cozy environment.
He carefully placed Juliette on the tiny pink bed and gingerly removed her shoes. Gwendolyn teared up
while she took in the scene unfolding before her.

Her children required paternal love. As such, she swore to retrieve the lost ring and find their biological
father.
Patrick sat on the side of the tiny bed and observed how cute his daughter looked while asleep.
While the little girl resembled Gwendolyn mostly, she took after his facial expressions and mannerisms.
I can't believe I didn't notice how uncannily similar she is to me before this. The two boys, especially,
resemble me a lot.
The corners of his lips lifted imperceptibly. Now that I know they're my children, I'll surely bring them
back.
When he got up and turned around, he bumped into Gwendolyn, who then staggered and fell
backward.
In response, he hooked his arm around her waist, and their eyes met.
They maintained the same posture for an extended moment before Patrick helped her regain balance.
“Be careful, Ms. Ashton.” His voice was deep, and his gaze distant.
“I'm feeling a little dizzy, Mr. Lowen. Would you mind if I lean against you for support?” Gwendolyn
swiftly wrapped her arms around his waist.
She caught a whiff of his refreshing fragrance at such proximity, and she couldn't help feeling drawn to
him.
Therefore, she was disappointed when he let go of her.
Patrick saw through her pretense of feeling dizzy as she clung to his body and rested her head against
his chest.
His brows furrowed as he gazed down at Gwendolyn, whose eyes were shut.
“Ms. Ashton, you're a married woman. Do you really think this is appropriate?” His lips curled to form a
frosty smirk.
He was trying to remind her of her marital status.
Gwendolyn was taking in his scent, listening to his heartbeat, and relishing the sensation of being
embraced in his arms.
Alas, his words were like a cold shower, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Despite that, Gwendolyn refused to let go of him and pursed her lips. She couldn't care less about
decorum and only wanted to hug him tight.
“I'm aware that I'm married, Mr. Lowen. But I genuinely felt dizzy and needed support. That's why I
asked for your help. I don't have any ulterior motives, so please don't overthink.”
