Chapter 543 You Are The One I Love
"Yeah, I do,” Gwendolyn replied firmly with a sweet smile and tightened her grip on his waist.
Having kept her grandfather company all day and looking after Zayden, she was a little tired and fell
asleep shortly after nuzzling against his shoulder.
For some reason, being around him filled her heart with a sense of security.
There was a hint of displeasure in Patrick's eyes when he saw how quickly she had fallen asleep.
There are a lot of things I want to tell her but I guess it'll have to wait till next time...
He then pulled the blanket over her shoulder and hugged her tightly in his arms.
Gwendolyn was woken up by the incessant ringing of her phone the next day.
By the time she sleepily opened her eyes, she heard Patrick saying in a deep voice, “I'm afraid she's
asleep at the moment.”
His voice was deeper than usual as he had just woken up, which made him sound a lot sexier.
Patrick then cradled her in his arms and gave her a gentle kiss on the cheek.

Being in his embrace filled Gwendolyn’s heart with a warm and cozy sensation. Because she was still a
little sleepy at the time, she closed her eyes and went back to sleep.
Eventually, a nurse came over and woke them both up. “Mr. Lowen? Ms. Ashton? Please wake up.”
Patrick was a little reluctant to let go of Gwendolyn, who was still lying in his embrace.
Displeased that the nurse had barged in and interrupted them while they were sleeping, he asked with
a frown, “What is it?”
The nurse felt as though the air around her had frozen up, and she shuddered a little in response.
Mr. Lowen sure is handsome! On top of that, he is also the heir to the wealthiest family in Avenport!
There isn't a single woman out there who wouldn't dream of dating him, and I'm no exception.
However, he's always so cold and distant toward everyone...
“The director wanted me to inform you two that Old Mr. Lowen is here,” the nurse replied nervously
before running off.
The look on Patrick's face was so terrifying that she couldn't bring herself to spend another second in
that ward.
Gwendolyn sat bolt upright when she heard that.
"Ah, I should get going now.”
She pulled the blanket off and was about to leave when Patrick grabbed her by the waist. He then
pressed his face against hers to feel her warmth and take in the faint, fragrant scent of her skin.
"You're not going anywhere.”
His deep voice sounded so sexy that it gave Gwendolyn goosebumps. Not only was he blessed with a
well-toned body, but he even had a ridiculously charming voice to go with it.
Gwendolyn felt as though her ears could get pregnant just by listening to him.
"It's fine. Just stay here with me,” he continued while kissing her on the cheek.
“N-No, Patrick. Old Mr. Lowen isn't feeling well, and I don't want to agitate him any further.”
Not wanting to let him seduce her into staying, she closed her eyes tightly and reopened them to snap

Patrick was way too skilled in the art of seduction. The way he gently caressed her waist while giving
her quick licks on the cheeks got her incredibly aroused.
"I'll get going now. I'll come back and visit you later,” Gwendolyn said as she got up and walked off.
Patrick called out to her right as she was about to reach the door, "Why did you accept his proposal?”
She has agreed to marry me first, so why would she accept Zayden's proposal?
Gwendolyn's eyes went wide as she wondered how he knew about it.
After giving it some thought, however, she recalled that he had Candace and a few other spies in the
Ashton family. That meant it was definitely impossible to keep such things a secret from him.
“Please believe me when I say this, Patrick. You are the one I love, not him,” she replied while stepping
out of the ward and shutting the door behind her.
Just like that, the atmosphere in the ward grew cold again. It felt as though she was never here.
Hector and Felicia came over shortly after.
Naturally, Hector was happy to see that Patrick was recovering fairly well. In fact, Patrick didn't even
look like he fell sick at all.
“You can get discharged today, right, Pat?”
