Patrick went into the small attached bathroom. It had a small sink and a shower with nary a bathtub in
sight.
His gaze landed on the pale green toothbrush and its matching cup. Gwendolyn also kept a face towel
and some cosmetics in the bathroom. He did not see a single water stain in the clean and tidy
bathroom.
His observations so far led him to conclude that Gwendolyn led a simple and meaningful existence. Her
house was old and lacking in lavish designs, yet it was a clean and comfortable abode.
Under her management, the simplest decorations and furniture turned the old house into a warm and
cozy home.
It was nothing like the monochromatic scheme of his house, which made it seem cold and uninviting.
Gwendolyn returned amid his musings with a new toothbrush, a cup, and a fresh towel.
“You can take a shower if you like. We have hot water.”
I bet he'll feel uncomfortable if he doesn't take a bath every day.

She then said, “I'll wait downstairs. You can come down and have breakfast after you've freshened up.”
After that, she turned to leave. Her hair fluttered behind her, leaving a faint, sweet scent in its wake.
Patrick found the scent oddly familiar, yet he could not recall where he had smelled it before.
He took a deep breath and realized that her unique, alluring scent filled the bathroom.
Meanwhile, Gwendolyn had gone downstairs. Her triplets had not left the house yet. They stood neatly
in a line at the bottom of the stairs as though they were waiting for her.
All three wore navy school uniforms and carried their backpacks, ready to leave for school.
Juliette smiled at her mother and asked, “Are you awake, Gwen? Where's Mr. Handsome?”
Gwendolyn blushed but remained calm as she answered, “He's up too. Justin, Julian, can I talk to the
two of you for a moment?”
Juliette eyed her brothers. After some thought, she uttered seriously, “You can't bully Mr. Handsome
anymore, okay?”
Justin ruffled her hair fondly and promised, “Okay!”
His agreement brought a smile to Juliette's face.
She announced, “I'll wait for you two outside. Talk faster, or we'll be late for school.”
Gwendolyn held her boys' hands and led them to the couch. She sat down and scrutinized her two
handsome sons.
They're good-looking boys. Their features are impeccable, and they're whip-smart. They must've
inherited these traits from their *sshole of a father; he can't be that inept if he fathered them.
She opened their talk by saying, “Next time, you can't behave like this toward our guests, understand?”
Patrick is playing your dear mother like a fiddle. I'd rather compromise in the future instead of playing
hardball, or all of you will end up with a worse fate.

Gwendolyn kept these thoughts to herself.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJustin and Julian nodded and replied, “Okay!”
The boys were always so obedient and sensible. They never went against her words, and Gwendolyn
felt touched and blessed to have such well-behaved children.
“All right. You should head to school now.”
Gwendolyn then called out, “Ms. Ziegler, please send them to school today.”
Camille came out of the kitchen and said, “Gwen, the oatmeal porridge is in the instant pot, and the
toppings are on the table.”
After the reminder, Camille accompanied the children to school.
Gwendolyn poured herself a cup of warm water and drank it. She was thinking about her job search
and praying that she could find work soon.
Suddenly, her phone rang with a call from Lucy.
Gwendolyn answered the call. “Luce.”
“Gwen, the hospital said they found a suitable bone marrow donor. I heard that he's still serving in the
army, so the hospital's trying to get in touch with him.”
The news was music to her ears. Money really does make the world go round. We managed to find a
donor a day after giving them the money. The speed is unbelievable!
