Chapter 314


    Patrick had thought things through. He would stay out with Gwendolyn. Neither of them would be


    returning to Star Mansion that night.


    That way, the two children would not be able to stop them.


    Gwendolyn nodded. She had to switch off her pher. That way, the kids would not be able to


    contact her and beg her to return home.


    At that thought, she found herself getting a little taste of mischief.


    This was her biggest transformation in the many years of her life. She wanted to go all out for once,


    and do what would make her happy.


    They drove on for more than two hours before they finally arrived at ake in the mountains.


    It was the best vacation spot in Avenport. On weekends, many people woulde here for fun.


    There was a hugeke surrounded by the road. It made for a beautiful scenery.


    There was also a vige with many hotels.


    It was already ten o''clock at night by the time they reached their destination. There were still many


    people strolling by theke. Some were even ying with fireworks.


    Gwendolyny in Patrick''s arms as they admired the moonlight outside the window. They also saw


    many couples by the roadside.


    Her face lit up with great happiness. She had no need to envy the other couples anymore. She had


    someone to lean on, whosep was reserved just for her.


    “Pat, let''s go down for a walk!”


    She noticed that they were getting closer to the vige near theke. She knew that they would be


    staying there that night.


    Patrick nodded. He instructed the chauffeur, “Larry, please get us checked in at the hotel. We''ll walk


    there.”


    Larry turned around and replied, “Yes, Mr. Lowen.”


    After they got down from the car, Patrick held on to Gwendolyn''s hand. Gwendolyn recalled the


    company''s New Year''s Day celebration that would take ce next day, which meant that the break


    would begin after that.


    The couple would stay here for the night, and head straight to the event the next day. They did not


    need to wake up early the next morning.


    When Patrick removed his jacket and ced it around Gwendolyn''s shoulders, she turned around to


    look at him.


    “I''m not cold. You should put it back on.”


    The wind by theke was rather strong, especially on a cold winter''s night. She did not want him to


    catch a cold.


    Patrick did not care about that. “Don''t worry about me. I have endured training for cold resistance since


    I was a child. I can stand the cold even without clothes on.”


    As she listened to his terse and cold voice, she examined his face under the streetlights. His features


    seemed unusually attractive.


    She had to admit that the more she looked, the more handsome she found him, and that made her like


    him even more.


    In an instant, she seemed to understand why other girls behaved the way they did. They tended to


    freeze whenever they saw Patrick. Her child, Juliette, was no exception.


    Gwendolyn narrowed her eyes and giggled. “Oh! You''re... so remarkable!”


    Right then, a crowd had gathered not far away. Their joyous shouts attracted Gwendolyn. She grabbed


    Patrick''s hand and ran all the way there.


    In the center of a bunch of candlesid out in the shape of a heart stood a beautiful woman. She


    carried a bouquet of flowers in her hands as a man kneeled down in front of her with a ring in his hand.


    “No matter what happens in the future, I''ll be by your side. I''ll love you forever. We''ll grow from a family


    of two to a family of four. We''ll have a son and daughter. We''ll grow old together as our children grow


    up. Even then, I still want to hold your hand. Babe, I love you! Will you marry me?”

    Everyone let out cheers of encouragement. Gwendolyn''s eyes filled up with tears. She finally


    understood how moving it was to be with someone she loved.


    She held on to Patrick''s hand tightly as she tilted her head to look at him.


    There was no expression on his face, but Gwendolyn knew that he definitely felt the same way she did.


    Deep down, they gave the couple their blessings.


    Patrick turned to gaze at her deeply.


    Their eyes met. For a moment, it was as if they were the only ones left in the world.


    Patrick''s parted his thin lips lightly. His voice was terse and cold as he got serious.


    He said to her, “Gwen, will you be by my side forever?”
