Chapter 642 Hostility
Felicia widened her eyes. “Really?”
There has been an internal conflict in the Ashton family over the meager family fortune recently.
However, all that is incomparable to the Lowen family's fortune! When her train of thought ended there,
she felt much better. “All right, Mom. I understand.” Now, I need to be on my best behavior around Old
Mr. Lowen and take good care of Patrick. It'll be great if he wakes up because I certainly won't mind
having a rich and handsome husband. However, if he kicks the bucket, I'll inherit the Lowen family
fortune and become an affluent woman that everyone in Avenport admires! Oh, just thinking about it
makes my heart soar! When that time comes, I can pick any man I want!
Meanwhile, Zayden and Gwendolyn met up with the doctor. The doctor conducted another examination
of Zayden's eyes before informing with a smile, “He can see a little. While it's unknown what caused his
blindness, his eyeballs are doing fine. In fact, they're recovering, so they'll get much better in the
future.”

As Gwendolyn held those medicine in her hand, her mood was lifted. Zayden can see again. Maybe his
eyesight will return to normal soon. I'm happy that he's going to be okay.
“Thank you, doctor.” She rose and helped Zayden out.
While they were waiting for the elevator, Zayden shot her a cold glance.
The happier she seemed, the more irritated he felt.
It was then his phone rang, so he answered the call.
Gwendolyn was certain that Zayden would lead a normal life again soon, but she wasn't sure how far
away that future was.
“Hello?”
“Where did you two go, Mr. Surrington?” Suzanne had just woken up from her hunger.
It was very quiet inside the mansion despite it being noon.
In the past, she enjoyed living in solitude.
However, she had become accustomed to other people inhabiting the same building. As such, she was
uncomfortable with the silence.
“We're at the hospital right now. We'll head back after lunch,” answered Zayden.
“Okay!” Suzanne was slightly disappointed.
Before the call ended, she whispered, “I want you to call me Babe in the future more often, Mr.
Surrington. I like hearing it!”
When Zayden called her that, he sounded so gentle, making her feel a warm sensation she'd never
experienced before. She loved it and was utterly entranced by his scent and the sound of his panting.
Upon hearing that, Zayden scowled. “Shut up! Don't bring it up again.”
Without delay, he hung up. To him, Suzanne was just a warm body to vent his sexual frustration.
If he weren't under the influence of alcohol last night, he wouldn't have slept with her.
“Is it Suzanne?” asked Gwendolyn because she was worried. “Does she know how to cook?”
“She won't die of hunger,” Zayden replied plainly.

grab lunch.”
When the elevator arrived on the first floor, they met Liam again. The latter was holding a few food
containers.
I guess Old Mrs. Lowen and the others are still in the hospital. Staring at Liam, Gwendolyn inquired,
“Old Mrs. Lowen and the others haven't left yet?”
Liam was stunned for a moment when he spotted Gwendolyn. When he thought about how she was
the cause of Patrick's coma, he shot her a cold glare before ignoring her.
Rage swirled in his eyes while he stepped past her.
Gwendolyn spun around, her gaze following him as he left.
The edges of Patrick's lips curved upward slightly. “You're married to me already, Gwen. From now on,
you should cut ties with Patrick and his people. You may think it's fine, but they seem to be treating you
with hostility already.”
When the word “hostility” wormed into Gwendolyn's ears, something clicked in her mind. Indeed, Liam
was reacting to me with animosity earlier.
Zayden beamed upon noticing the disappointment on Gwendolyn's countenance.
