After leaving the Surrington residence, Gwendolyn brought her children to the kid's castle in the mall.
Juliette loved playing there. Although her two older brothers found it a bit boring, they happily accompanied their younger sister.
Inside the castle, the kids immersed themselves in play, giving Gwendolyn some time to sit in the parents' rest area. She sipped her coffee and occasionally glanced at her laptop to review her company's latest project. It was a field she once knew little about, but now she could understand it and even offer some valuable insights.
Gwendolyn had been diligently learning about fashion design, and her innate talent in the field made her designs highly sought after by the company's design department.
As Solstice Group owned a high-end luxury clothing brand, Gwendolyn's designs often became limited- edition pieces, with no more than ten of each design being produced worldwide.
Suddenly, a familiar voice called out, “Gwen...”
Gwendolyn looked up and broke into a smile.
Lucy had arrived with her daughter Melanie.
The latter ran over to Gwendolyn's side and asked excitedly, “Ms. Gwen, are Juliette and the boys here too?”
Melanie had put on some weight, shedding her previous thin and weak appearance. She had transformed into a beautiful little princess with striking features reminiscent of Lucy's captivating beauty.
Gwendolyn gently caressed Melanie's face and complimented her, “Sweetheart, you look absolutely gorgeous today!”
Unlike Juliette, who still had a bit of baby fat, Melanie was tall and slender with well-defined facial features. Even though she was young, she exuded a charming aura.

“Thank you!” Melanie grinned.
Gwendolyn gestured toward the castle and said, “Look, the three of them are there. Why don't you go and join them?”
With the boys taking care of the two little girls, Gwendolyn and Lucy felt at ease knowing they were in good hands.
Lucy settled beside Gwendolyn and couldn't help but glance at her laptop.
“Working at this hour?”
Gwendolyn kept the laptop and supported her face with one hand.
“Yes! I don't want to disappoint Ms. Sanders. I can't let this company go bust since she entrusted it to me. Besides, it's a gift for her daughter.”
Lucy chuckled. “She treats you like her own daughter. You should definitely manage the company well.”
As they continued their light-hearted conversation, Gwendolyn felt all her previous worries vanish in the comforting presence of her best friend.
Just then, Lucy's phone rang. It was a call from Lucas. She chose to ignore the call for the moment.
Gwendolyn noticed the call and teased, “Why aren't you answering it?”
Lucy let out a sigh. “My contract with him has ended, but that guy does not seem to want to end our relationship. He still hangs around my place and searches for me everywhere if he can't find me. I'm not a child. I won't get lost.”
Unlike Juliette, who still had a bit of baby fat, Melanie was tall and slender with well-defined facial features. Even though she was young, she exuded a charming aura.
The exasperation was evident on her face as she regarded Lucas as nothing more than an immature child.
Amused by her friend's situation, Gwendolyn teased, “Luce, as someone who's been through it, I advise you to take matters of the heart seriously. When it comes to marriage, you should only marry the man you genuinely love.”
Lucy raised an eyebrow and looked intently at her. “Been through it? I've been through it too. When I reminded you before, you didn't listen. Now you've realized it too?”
Feeling uneasy under her friend's intense gaze, Gwendolyn said, “We were talking about you. Leave me out of this.”
She couldn't discuss her current situation with anyone.
After sipping on Gwendolyn's coffee, Lucy said, “How are things between you and Zayden after getting married? You've been unavailable for the past few months. You've lost weight. Is he treating you poorly?”
Many women in Avenport were envious of Gwendolyn for marrying into the prestigious Surrington family.
After all, the Surrington family held a prominent position as the second-largest family in the city, boasting a noble aristocratic lineage that spanned several centuries. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Zayden, with his striking looks and impressive abilities, was seen as the epitome of a desirable partner. Becoming his wife was considered a gateway to happiness for any woman.
