Gwendolyn could not stifle her laughter. She then turned around and looked at Patrick. “Mr. Lowen,
why are you so domineering?”
Patrick's eyes darkened. He moved closer to Gwendolyn and whispered in her ears, “That's because
you are too beautiful!”
Rendered speechless, she gave him a faint smile as she thought he was exaggerating and did not
believe that she could make him so nervous.
She finally understood what people meant when they said beauty is in the eye of the beholder. After all,
she always thought her look was average and not beautiful like a goddess.
Nevertheless, she felt great to be cared about by Patrick.
The car was parked at the entrance of Grand View Hotel, which was one of the Chavez family's
properties and a hotel with more than five stars rating.
Kevin's birthday party was held in the largest banquet hall in the hotel.
There were a lot of media reporters waiting outside the door. People who were attending the party wore
a mask. Thus, the media reporters were unable to identify the attendees.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was Kevin's intention for them to wear a mask to the party so that they could have fun without
worrying about their identity being exposed.
Before Patrick got out of the car, he put on his silver-colored mask. After he put it on, he revealed only
his narrowed eyes, making him look even more devilish.
He slightly pursed his red lips while looking at the woman beside him. Gwendolyn was also wearing a
silver mask with diamonds on it. They were both wearing matching couple masks.
Patrick stepped out of the car, followed by Gwendolyn. She hooked her arm around Patrick's as they
walked into the hotel together.
Along their way, many cameras were on them, accompanied by bright flashes. The reporters were
taking photos endlessly. Despite that, it was useless, as the reporters could not identify who was
attending the party. They wouldn't even know he was Patrick.
Gwendolyn smiled as she walked in front of the public, holding Patrick's arm. She felt safe with him,
and her presence was much stronger.
Sure enough, the strength that Patrick gave her had made her fearless.
Gwendolyn could not help but turn her head and look at the man beside her. His calm and indifferent
look made him look like a majestic king.
Upon entering the hotel, the usher led them into the banquet hall.
Gwendolyn was surprised to see the decorations in the hall. She expected gold and bright decorations.
However, the hall was decorated with a Halloween theme.
Skulls could be seen throughout the hall. Even the servers were dressed up as ghosts, zombies, and
vampires.
Gwendolyn had never attended such a party. She widened her eyes and thought her three kids would
definitely love to attend such a party.
Patrick touched her hand gently and asked, “Are you scared?”
Kevin would always come up with different themes for his birthday party yearly. Last year was a pajama
theme.
This year's theme was more creative and suited Kevin's identity as a doctor.
Gwendolyn chuckled and replied, “Of course not. I never thought the birthday party could be decorated
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthis way.”
Patrick led Gwendolyn to a lounge not far away. When they walked past the hall, they caught the
crowd's attention since they both looked outstanding in terms of their figure and aura. All eyes were on
them as people gossiped about them in hushed tones.
“Who are they? They look gorgeous!”
“It would be great to see them take off their mask. They must be a match made in heaven.”
“I can't tell who they are!”
Gwendolyn heard the discussions from the crowd. She would have to be used to it in the future if she
chose to be with Patrick, knowing that she had to be strong so that no words could hurt her anymore.
Patrick pushed the door open, and they both entered the lounge.
Kevin was sitting on the couch with a young lady in his arms. She wore a baseball outfit and had put
her hair in a high ponytail, looking youthful and energetic like a high school student.
“Mr. Chavez, today is your birthday. Didn't you say you would only celebrate your birthday with me?”
Kevin coaxed lightly, “I'll celebrate with you alone tomorrow, okay?”
The girl pouted and replied, “I don't care. I've dressed up nicely today.”
“Darling, you look amazing in this costume!” Kevin kissed the girl on her face, and she forced a smile
after that.
