Super CEO Daddy

Chapter 25

When Felicia heard what Gwendolyn said, she looked at Candace. Both of them were in a panic, worrying that Gwendolyn would tell everyone the truth about what had happened six years ago.

Felicia hurriedly changed the subject and asked, “Gwen, didn't you give birth to triplets? Two sons and a daughter. Why didn't you bring them along? I'm their aunt!”

With that, she smirked arrogantly. Michael and Zachary were conservative and prideful men. Felicia had purposely mentioned Gwendolyn's children, who were born out of wedlock; she did not want Gwendolyn to talk about the incident.

Zachary's eyes widened in surprise after he heard what Felicia said. He questioned Gwendolyn, “Did you really give birth to those b*astards?”

Gwendolyn was only a teenager when she was pregnant. She could not even tell who the babies' father was, yet she had the nerve to give birth to them.

As Gwendolyn heard the insulting word, her face darkened.

I think this house is not the right place for my kids. After all, they only take my precious kids as some lowly, illegitimate kids.

Gwendolyn's heart ached as the word echoed in her ears. Even if she had to work hard her whole life, she would never want anyone to look down on her children.

She probably seemed like a weak person on the outside, but she was actually a tough person. She was willing to give up on everything for her three children.

“Mind your words, Mr. Ashton. Those are my precious children, but not b*stards. If it's like what you said, didn't you and Candace give birth to a b*stard too?” Gwendolyn snapped.

Candace had seduced Zachary back then. Then, she was pregnant with Felicia. After that, she forced Gwendolyn's mother to leave. Since then, Gwendolyn's perfect family had broken apart.

Technically, Felicia could be considered the real illegitimate child.

“Gwendolyn Ashton, what did you say?” Felicia shouted in fury.

How dare she call me a b*stard?

Zachary was so enraged that his face contorted. If Michael were not there, Zachary would have slapped Gwendolyn. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Candace was furious, but she held herself back. After all, her affair with Zachary had been deemed as a disgrace by Michael too. That was the reason why Michael did not like Felicia, and he also did not choose her as his heir.

Michael's face fell. “That's enough. Gwen hasn't been back for years. What's the point of fighting? Go home, all three of you. Leave me alone with Gwen for a while.”

Zachary stood up and gave Gwendolyn a cold glare. Please don't come home. Otherwise, you'll be the death of me.

Candace grabbed Felicia's hand, walked out of the main building, and headed back to their mansion.

Gwendolyn heaved a sigh of relief after they left. She wanted to control her emotions. However, Gwendolyn's anger welled up when she saw them, as she was reminded of how they had treated her mother and her in the past.

Gwendolyn would not go easy on Zachary and his family. She would not miss any chance to stir up trouble with them.

“Grandpa, I shouldn't have come home. I made you upset the moment I'm back,” said Gwendolyn as she grabbed Michael's hands.

She was still acting mischievously like how she used to.

Michael could not help but chuckle at the look of Gwendolyn's cheeky expression.

He tapped on her forehead and said, “You're still the same girl I know. Aren't you worried that you'll upset me? I'm the only person who loves you in this house.”

Gwendolyn held Michael's hand and leaned her head against his shoulder. “Grandpa, I know you love me the most, so you won't get mad at me no matter how naughty I am.”

After all, Michael would like her more if she went against Zachary, Candace, and Felicia, as the former had always thought Zachary was the one at fault. As such, there was nothing wrong with Gwendolyn defending her mother.

It showed that Michael's effort to bring Gwendolyn up was not in vain.

Michael burst into laughter again after hearing Gwendolyn's reply. Harry, who was watching their interaction at the side, was moved to tears.

Old Mr. Ashton has not been so happy for many years. It'd be good if Ms. Gwendolyn could come home!

With that thought in mind, Harry said, “Ms. Gwendolyn, why don't you move back home? Old Mr. Ashton will be over the moon!”

Gwendolyn was in a trance after she heard Harry's request.

Even though Gwendolyn's relationship with Michael remained the same, they could not act as if nothing had happened. After all, she was already a mother of three at that point.

Besides, Michael could not seem to accept the children yet.
