Chapter 723 Let Me Take Your Place

Gwendolyn seemed calmer after she saw the text.

“Old Mrs. Surrington, I can't do that. I can't separate from my three children,” Gwendolyn said.

Greta's expression became solemn. “Why do you make yourself sound so righteous? You don't even know who your children's father is, do you?”

Diana had told Greta about it prior to that, and the former had also exaggerated the story.

Gwendolyn's expression changed slightly when she heard that. Well, I really don't know who my kids' father is. However, I've already found the ring. As soon as I retrieve the ring, I can find my kids' father. Before this, I thought it didn't matter who their father was. I thought all that mattered was my unconditional love for them. Now, however, I know I can't act so selfishly. The kids want to know who their father is, and they deserve that much. I can't take that away from them.

Zayden heard those words and flashed a faint smile. “Grandma, you're being rather straightforward, aren't you? She's a part of the Surrington family now, so you ought to be nice to her.”

Greta frowned slightly and replied, “Zay, I can be nice to her. Perhaps you guys should move back in. I'll help you educate your wife and put her in her place.”

“Sure!” Zayden raised his brows.

Gwendolyn, on the other hand, felt her heart tightened. Move back in? What is he doing?

“That's right. You guys should move back in. That way, I'll be able to see you every day,” Angeline

chimed in.

With that, Angeline shot Gwendolyn a glance. Once you return to the Surrington residence, you won't get to bully Zay anymore.

Zayden kept mum after that, and so did Gwendolyn.

A while later, Zayden rose to his feet and said, “We'll go home and pack now. We'll move in tomorrow.”

With that, he approached Gwendolyn, grabbed her hand, and led her out of the Surrington residence.

Greta and Angeline were reluctant to watch Zayden leave. “You've only arrived not long ago. Are you leaving already?”

The couple walked out of the house.

Zayden held Gwendolyn's wrist tightly and said, “Not too shabby. You were smart enough not to mention the divorce.”

He grinned after he finished his sentence, and the look in his eyes was scary and icy.

“I really didn't chase Suzanne away. Could you please not move into the Surrington residence?” Gwendolyn bit her lip. If he moves in there, I won't be able to stay with my kids.

Zayden shoved her into the car and said, “This is your punishment for meeting Patrick. Don't worry, though. Your kids will move in with you. I won't separate them from you.”

“No. They can't stay here.” Gwendolyn widened her eyes. The Surrington family is hostile toward me, and they dislike my children. They'll treat my children badly! I mustn't let my children move into the Surrington residence!

Zayden slammed the door shut and refused to hear her out.

Gwendolyn panicked and whipped out her phone to call Suzanne. Suzanne's return will change everything! Why did she suddenly leave, though? I don't get it! I was hoping she could help me get out of this sticky situation and date Zayden!

When Zayden was walking toward the driver's seat, Greta and Angeline called out to him.

“Zay!”

Greta grabbed his arm and said, “Zay, we have everything you need here. Why don't you stay the night?”

“That's right. You have been away for too long. I don't want to watch you leave again,” Angeline chimed in.

A dark look flashed past Zayden's eyes.

These women are so annoying!

With that in mind, he shook Greta off and demanded, “Call me Spencer from now on.”

As he made his way to the driver's seat, he grumbled inwardly. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

That guy, Zayden, is he always surrounded by these women? No wonder he's such a loser! He can't even handle the woman he loves! Don't ever come back. I'll take your place and enjoy life to the fullest.

With that in mind, he flashed an insidious smile. “I'll avenge you, though. Consider it a favor.”
