Perfect CEO

Chapter 700 Kicking Her Out

I can't believe how magnanimous I am. Faced with my husband and his mistress, I can actually get myself to share a candlelight dinner with them.

When the thought flashed across her mind, Gwendolyn couldn't help but snigger at herself.

Truth be told, she wasn't being magnanimous. Having no feelings for him was the real reason.

One would never find happiness on a marriage built on a lie.

Zayden looked outside and said, “There's no such need. A servant shouldn't be eating at the table.”

From Zayden's perspective, the employer and the help should never be treated equally. As someone who grew up in a wealthy family, he was particularly strict when it came to such matters. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Gwendolyn could only smile in response. “All right, then.”

It's evident both of them are arguing. She let out a sigh while hoping that Suzanne would work harder.

After pouring the glass of wine, Zayden pushed it toward her.

“Its alcohol content isn't high. Probably around what you get for sweet wine. I ordered someone to brew it just for you.”

Sensing the warmth Zayden had displayed, Gwendolyn couldn't help but stare at him before commenting, “Zayden, don't you think you're being you sometimes but another person at other times?”

Feeling confused after she spoke, Gwendolyn let out a sigh at her inability to describe the situation accurately.

“Do you have a twin?”

Zayden's grip on the wineglass tightened. He was well aware that he was sick. If he failed to defeat his other self, his current self would disappear for eternity. I can't believe how magnanimous I am. Faced with my husband and his mistress, I can actually get myself to share a candlelight dinner with them.

However, he wasn't prepared to share the fact with anyone.

“No. Sometimes my temper just gets the better of me. I hope you'll forgive me for it.”

He then raised his glass. “I might have lost my composure due to what happened with my eyes previously. Gwen, I would like to apologize to you for all the hurt that I've caused you. I'm sorry!”

Gwendolyn placed the glass on her lips. I have lost count of the times he has apologized. Before I knew it, he would revert to his old ways again. Should I really forgive him?

Unable to let the matter slide, Gwendolyn simply raised the glass and took a sip.

“Zayden, I'm tired. I want to go upstairs and rest now.”

As she got up and left, Zayden could only watch her silhouette with a dejected look in his eyes.

That guy must have done something to utterly disappoint her. Otherwise, the Gwendolyn of old would always be soft-heated enough to forgive me at my request.

At that moment, Suzanne walked into the dining hall. “Mr. Surrington.”

She stared blankly at him with her lips pursed.

The look on her face caused Zayden's expression to darken.

“What is it?”

“Mr. Surrington, I don't know what I did wrong. Can you not give me the cold shoulder, please?”

The moment she finished, she ran up to him from behind and wrapped her arms around his neck.

“Please don't ignore me, all right?” she repeated in between her sobs.

This time, Zayden could sense, without a single doubt, that she and his other self had been together, causing her to fall deeply in love with him.

This is crazy. He pried her hands away.

“Suzanne, can you not do this going forward? I'm married, for goodness sake. What both of you are doing is wrong.”

Suzanne's tears gushed out uncontrollably. “Mr. Surrington, I have no idea what you're talking about.

All I know is that I like you coming into my room and doing all those things to me. I like how you smile at me and call me 'Babe'!”

The more Zayden heard about it, the worse it felt to him. The realization triggered a darkening of his face.

“Stop saying that. This is wrong. You will leave here tomorrow!”

The words caused Suzanne to burst into tears.

“Mr. Surrington, please don't ask me to leave. I don't know how I'll survive if I'm forced to go.”

Zayden let out a sigh. He knew that it was just a matter of time before the matter blew up if she were to continue staying there.

I can't believe how brazen that guy is. Once Gwen finds out, she'll hate me for life.

Zayden knew that he couldn't win Gwendolyn's heart now. Hence, he was biding his time for the time being.

If that guy messes up my plan, I'll never be able to get Gwendolyn to have a change of heart.

“I'll arrange for you to stay in a condominium. With your accommodation secured, all you need is to get a job.”
