Chapter 248


    Gwendolyn gave Rosalie her phone for thetter to input the number while mentally rejoicing that she


    had gained another potential customer.


    After adding Gwendolyn''s phone number, Rosalie saved her contact with a remark that read: Patrick''s


    ything.


    Herrge eyes wandered as she sketched a n to get closer to Gwendolyn from then on. If she could


    have a good rtionship with Gwendolyn, then she would naturally meet Patrick sooner orter.


    After Alice and Linda finished chatting, the former called Gwendolyn, “Let''s go, Gwen.”


    Gwendolyn then bid farewell to Rosalie and Linda before getting inside Alice''s car and leaving Corvin


    Street.


    Inside the car, Alice held Gwendolyn''s hand and apologized, “I''m sorry for making you go through all of


    that, Gwen. It''s not like I can''t help you, but I just hope that you can adapt to this kind of gathering since


    you will be attending more of them in the future.”


    Alice did not like this kind of gathering where thedies from rich and influential families gathered.


    However, she was a part of the Lowen family, so she had an obligation to attend such gatherings.


    Gwendolyn smiled and said, “I am fine, Old Mrs. Lowen. Please don''t apologize.”


    Gwendolyn just felt that being able to watch Candace being isted and sitting at the farthest table


    was undeniably pleasant. Candace definitely did not have a good time that day.


    “That''s good, then,” said Alice with a nod.


    She felt that the younger woman was very caring and sensible, so she was even more pleased with


    her.


    At her age, Alice was tired after having spent most of the day outside, so she had to go straight home


    to rest.


    She sent Gwendolyn to Lowen Group, and after the younger woman got out of the car, the driver drove


    back to the Lowen residence.


    Patrick was not there when Gwendolyn returned to the office.


    She put down her handbag, went to the pantry, and poured a ss of water for herself before taking a


    few sips.


    She found a quiet ce to make a call to Lucy.


    That morning was pretty hectic for her and she also had to follow Alice out after that, so she did not


    have the time to call her friend.


    The call was connected soon after. “Hello?”


    When Gwendolyn heard Lucy''s voice, she thought that thetter had just woken up.


    “Did I wake you up, Luce?”


    Lucy immediately sobered up when she heard Gwendolyn''s voice. She took a nce around the room


    and found that the ce was quite familiar. After all, she had been there more than ten times.


    “Sorry, Gwen. I drank too muchst night, so I slept in.”


    As a matter of fact, that was not the truth. After being picked up by a certain manst night, she spent


    most of the night with him in bed.


    That man was energetic, and she could not keep up with him at all. She was so tired that she could not


    even get up.


    Lucas had sent someone to watch over Mnie at the hospital, so she slept at his ce with peace of


    mind.


    If it was not for Gwendolyn''s call, she did not know how long she was going to sleep.


    Gwendolyn was relieved after hearing her excuse. “I''m just checking up on you because I''m worried.


    Lucas didn''t bully you after taking you awayst night, did he?”


    Lucy got up and put on her pajamas. Her throat was parched, so she went to the kitchen to pour herself


    a ss of water.


    When she walked into the kitchen, she saw a note on the table.


    The note read: Lucy, my team has a mission, so I have to go back. I''ll leave this condominium to you.


    There was a grant for the condominium underneath the note and a ck card.


    Lucy''s face turned pale, and she mumbled to herself, “He ran away?”


    Gwendolyn just wanted to express her worries and also ask Lucy about something. Before she could


    do that, however, she heard Lucy mumbling.

    “What did you say? Who ran away?”


    Lucy mmed her palm on the table, right on top of the grant. Her eyes were filled with


    disappointment.


    “It''s Lucas. He ran away.”


    Lucas had agreed to donate his bone marrow to Mnie on Friday but did not keep his words. They


    made an agreement that Lucy would be with him for a month. Whenever he called, she woulde


    over and sleep with him.


    Lucy''s only wish was for Mnie to live. She was willing to do anything for that wish to be a


    reality.


    However, Lucas actually lied to her.


    Bastard... You bastard...


    Gwendolyn did not understand what was happening. “Luce, are you still waiting for Lucas'' bone


    marrow because you haven''t found another person that matches?”


    Lucy was not in the mood to discuss this matter at the moment. Her voice was very hoarse as she said,


    “Gwen, I have to hang up. I need to find him. Let''s talk about thister.”


    She then hung up the call, leaving Gwendolyn staring at her phone dumbfoundedly. Her eyes blinked a


    few times, and Gwendolyn finally understood what had happened.


    She got up and went back to the office. Patrick was already inside, and it seemed that he had just


    returned.


    “Mr. Lowen, do you know where Mr. Gomez is right now?”


    The note read: Lucy, my team has a mission, so I have to go back. I''ll leave this condominium to you.
