Super CEO Daddy

Chapter 46

Alice knew from a single glance that her eldest grandson was only pretending to be sick, so she decided to help him.

“My dear grandson, where do you feel discomfort?”

Patrick was a smart guy. Of course, he knew Alice was trying to help him.

He could also see that Alice liked Gwendolyn, which was a positive development.

With that, he immediately put on a painful expression and covered his chest with his hand.

“My chest hurts.”

Alice could not help but grin. Looks like he's serious about this girl this time. It seems I was right. Only a kind lady like Gwen would capture his heart.

She quickly guided Gwendolyn's hand to help support Patrick.

“Gwen, help him to his bed. I'll go find out about his condition from a doctor.”

Upon saying this, she winked at Patrick, and he raised his eyebrows in response.

He leaned his entire body against Gwendolyn and put his hand over her slender shoulders. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

She gave off a sweet fragrance.

Gwendolyn almost lost her balance, as he was half a head taller than her, and it was quite difficult for her to support him.

He continued to lean against her and mumbled, “It hurts...”

Those words pierced her heart whenever she heard them, as she thought it was all her fault.

Her face tightened and she supported him anxiously as they walked.

“Patrick, hang in there. Old Mrs. Lowen will return soon after consulting the doctor,” she comforted.

She dragged him out of the walk-in closet and wanted to help him onto the bed. However, she ended up falling onto his large bed with his body pressing down upon hers.

Gwendolyn was out of breath and wanted to push him away.

However, he said, “Don't move. Once you move, I'll hurt and find it hard to breathe.”

Hearing that, she did not dare to move an inch and allowed the top half of his body to continue pressing down upon hers. Because he was in so much pain, his grip around her body had tightened as well, and she was wrapped tightly in his embrace.

Patrick thought it felt comfortable to go to sleep while hugging her. She's so soft, and she smells so good.

As such, he mumbled with eyes half-closed, “I'll take a short nap. Wake me up when Grandma is back.”

Gwendolyn nodded but suddenly cried out, “No, you can't sleep! What if you slept and never woke up? I've seen the news about people who visited the dentist and died after getting an anesthetic. I can't let you fall asleep.”

“Can we do something else then? Otherwise, it's unbearable.”

Patrick's warm breath tickled her face, and Gwendolyn blinked.

Mmm, the peppermint scent coming from his body smells good.

“What can you do? You can't even move.”

Patrick smirked mischievously upon hearing her question.

“Can I kiss you? I'll forget all my pain if I could kiss you.”

It was the truth. A special feeling stirred in his heart whenever he kissed her. It was similar to those dreams he had six years ago.

Gwendolyn was shocked, and it took her a moment to recover.

She shook her head vigorously and rejected him, “No way. I don't like it. I won't go easy on you if you try to kiss me by force again.”

This was her bottom line. If she was not willing to do it, he should not force her.

Patrick did not wish to overstep her boundaries. He was not in a rush, and there was plenty of time.

“I was just joking. I'll just take a short nap. I promise I'll definitely wake up again.”

There's no way I can just hold her and do nothing. I don't have that kind of resolve. It's safer if I take a nap.

Gwendolyn continued waiting for Alice, but the latter did not return. In the end, she, too, fell asleep.

When Gwendolyn woke up the next day, she felt refreshed. It was the best sleep had had in years. She rubbed her eyes and stretched her arms to the side.

This feels great!

Suddenly, she heard a low grunt from the man beside her, and blood flowed out of his nose.
