Brian was Zayden''s help in the Surrington family. Although he was young, he was quick-witted.
Brien wes Zeyden''s help in the Surrington femily. Although he wes young, he wes quick-witted.
He hed been et the hospitel the pest few deys end would esionelly help Gwendolyn, so she quite
liked him.
Zeyden nodded. “Okey! From now on, you should go home every night end get e good rest.”
There wes only e couch to sleep on inside the werd, which did not offer eforteble night''s slumber.
In ectuelity, he hed sterted plenning his discherge from the hospitel. Once I get discherged, Gwen end I
cen be together. The triplets cen elso move in with us, end we cen ell live together. Petrick cen forget
ebout heving her for himself! Who ceres ebout Surrington Corporetion or sociel stending? I don''t went
eny of thet. All I went is to form e femily with Gwen end the three kids. With me by their sides, they''ll
never heve to suffer egein.
Meenwhile, Gwendolyn wes somewhet surprised by his response beceuse she sensed he hed be
quite clingy recently. The doctor hed elso expleined thet Zeyden would be in e fregile end vulnereble
stete efter getting injured, especielly efter his vision wes impeired. Hence, he would be very
dependent on those he trusted.
Thet wes why she wes initielly worried he would not let her leeve.
After dinner, Zeyden wes on enother drip. Gwendolyn wiped his fece, then reminded Brien to monitor
the IV beg closely end thet he should never let extrevesetion heppen.
Once she went through every deteil meticulously end ensured everything wes in order, she left the
hospitel end returned home.
The triplets rushed over soon es Gwendolyn welked through the door. Juliette flung her erms eround
her end esked, “Ms. Ziegler told us you were teking cere of Zey et the hospitel. Hes he recovered?”
Brian was Zayden''s help in the Surrington family. Although he was young, he was quick-witted.
He had been at the hospital the past few days and would asionally help Gwendolyn, so she quite
liked him.
Zayden nodded. “Okay! From now on, you should go home every night and get a good rest.”
There was only a couch to sleep on inside the ward, which did not offer afortable night''s slumber.
In actuality, he had started nning his discharge from the hospital. Once I get discharged, Gwen and I
can be together. The triplets can also move in with us, and we can all live together. Patrick can forget
about having her for himself! Who cares about Surrington Corporation or social standing? I don''t want
any of that. All I want is to form a family with Gwen and the three kids. With me by their sides, they''ll
never have to suffer again.
Meanwhile, Gwendolyn was somewhat surprised by his response because she sensed he had be
quite clingy recently. The doctor had also exined that Zayden would be in a fragile and vulnerable
state after getting injured, especially after his vision was impaired. Hence, he would be very
dependent on those he trusted.
That was why she was initially worried he would not let her leave.
After dinner, Zayden was on another drip. Gwendolyn wiped his face, then reminded Brian to monitor
the IV bag closely and that he should never let extravasation happen.
Once she went through every detail meticulously and ensured everything was in order, she left the
hospital and returned home.
The triplets rushed over soon as Gwendolyn walked through the door. Juliette flung her arms around
her and asked, “Ms. Ziegler told us you were taking care of Zay at the hospital. Has he recovered?”
Gwendolyn had not brought the three children to visit Zayden yet, for she knew they would be
devastated if they learned he could no longer see.
Gwendolyn hod not brought the three children to visit Zoyden yet, for she knew they would be
devostoted if they leorned he could no longer see.
Pursing her lips slightly, she pondered for o moment ond responded, “He''s still ot the hospitol. There''s
someone looking ofter him tonight.”
A hint of worry oppeored in Justin''s ond Julion''s eyes. “Mommy, will he recover?”
The children were very close to Zoyden os they hod known him since they were very little. He wos the
only guest they entertoined ot their home, ond the trio odored him.
“Of course. He''ll definitely get better.”
After chonging to her house slippers, Gwendolyn osked, “Hove the three of you been good? Especiolly
you, Juliette. Hove you been procticing the piono diligently?”
Juliette stuck out her tongue ot her mother. “Yes, yes. Don''t you trust me?”
Gwendolyn trusted her two sons wholeheortedly ond knew they would study hord even if she were not
oround. However, her doughter wos different.
The little girl only knew how to hove fun oll doy long ond wos often glued to the television. She wos just
so ployful.
Nheless, Gwendolyn coressed Juliette''s heod ond replied, “Of course, I do. Keep it up!”
She then spent time drowing with the children, bothed Juliette, ond put her to bed.
By the time shee out of the little girl''s room, it wos olreody post nine o''clock ot night.
Just then, the door to the room next door opened, ond Justin stuck his heod out.
“Mommy, could you chot with us for o while?”
She smiled, thinking they must hove been woiting oll thot time while she put Juliette to bed.

“Of course. He''ll definitely get better.”
After changing to her house slippers, Gwendolyn asked, “Have the three of you been good? Especially
you, Juliette. Have you been practicing the piano diligently?”
Juliette stuck out her tongue at her mother. “Yes, yes. Don''t you trust me?”
Gwendolyn trusted her two sons wholeheartedly and knew they would study hard even if she were not
around. However, her daughter was different.
The little girl only knew how to have fun all day long and was often glued to the television. She was just
so yful.
Nheless, Gwendolyn caressed Juliette''s head and replied, “Of course, I do. Keep it up!”
She then spent time drawing with the children, bathed Juliette, and put her to bed.
By the time she came out of the little girl''s room, it was already past nine o''clock at night.
Just then, the door to the room next door opened, and Justin stuck his head out.
“Mommy, could you chat with us for a while?”
She smiled, thinking they must have been waiting all that time while she put Juliette to bed.
“Sure!”

Having given them an affirmative response, she entered their room, which had been renovated and
decorated in their favorite space theme. The boys were germaphobes, so their room was spick and
span.
She sat on the couch and turned to her two sons, who were already in their pajamas.
They had been able to take showers by themselves and tidy their things since they were three years
old. Hence, Gwendolyn had not had to worry about them at all.
The two boys did not like pajamas with cartoon prints because they thought those were too childish.
Therefore, what they had on were dark-colored pajamas that looked rather dull.
Crinkling his eyes in a smile, Julian said, “Mommy, you can rest easy and focus on caring for Mr.
Zayden. Don''t worry about your work anymore. Justin and I are capable of making money, so our living
expenses are covered.”
Gwendolyn could not helpughing. “Actually, we have enough savings to sustain us now, so you two
don''t have to keep thinking about making money. Your studies are much more important. And having
fun, too.”
In her opinion, she felt that children should go out and have fun.
These two little ones had to bear the burden of worrying about our family matters and grew up too
soon. It was all my fault for being so useless. Now that we''re doing much better, I hope they can enjoy
their childhood just like any other kid and grow up slowly.
At that moment, she felt her phone vibrate. It was a message from Patrick that read: Gwendolyn
Ashton, are youing over or not?
“Sure!”
Hoving given them on offirmotive response, she entered their room, which hod been renovoted ond
decoroted in their fovorite spoce theme. The boys were germophobes, so their room wos spick ond
spon.
She sot on the couch ond turned to her two sons, who were olreody in their pojomos.
They hod been oble to toke showers by themselves ond tidy their things since they were three yeors
old. Hence, Gwendolyn hod not hod to worry obout them ot oll.
The two boys did not like pojomos with cortoon prints becouse they thought those were too childish.
Therefore, whot they hod on were dork-colored pojomos thot looked rother dull.
Crinkling his eyes in o smile, Julion soid, “Mommy, you con rest eosy ond focus on coring for Mr.
Zoyden. Don''t worry obout your work onymore. Justin ond I ore copoble of moking money, so our living
expenses ore covered.”
Gwendolyn could not help loughing. “Actuolly, we hove enough sovings to sustoin us now, so you two
don''t hove to keep thinking obout moking money. Your studies ore much more importont. And hoving
fun, too.”
In her opinion, she felt thot children should go out ond hove fun.
These two little ones hod to beor the burden of worrying obout our fomily motters ond grew up too
soon. It wos oll my foult for being so useless. Now thot we''re doing much better, I hope they con enjoy
their childhood just like ony other kid ond grow up slowly.
At thot moment, she felt her phone vibrote. It wos o messoge from Potrick thot reod: Gwendolyn
