Super CEO Daddy

Chapter 243

Gwendolyn wore a white dress that touched the floor. It matched the Starry Tears on her neck very well.

She realized that no matter what outfit she wore, whether it was a simple dress or an elegant gown, the necklace complimented them very well. She now understood why it cost so much.

It was worth every cent.

Gwendolyn got into Alice's car, and they made their way to a mansion on Corvin Street.

The historic-looking mansions along the street were mostly resided by affluent families.

The main door of the mansion was made of high-quality wood with gold trimmings. It looked massive and heavy, like a solid wall.

When Alice's car stopped at the entrance, the servants went out to open the car door.

“Old Mrs. Lowen, how do you do?”

When they opened the door for Gwendolyn, whom they did not recognize, they greeted her respectfully, “Greetings, miss.”

Gwendolyn nodded slightly to acknowledge them.

Alice walked up to her and held her hand. They walked toward the door with their arms linked.

Upon entering the compound, they passed by a garden with a pond. There were several carp swimming merrily in the pond.

When they entered the main hall where the tea party was held, Gwendolyn noticed that they had arrived at a greenhouse.

The greenhouse was huge, and the temperature was controlled. Upon seeing the guests enter, the servants quickly went up to help them remove their coats. Both Gwendolyn and Alice then walked into the room in their gowns.

The place was decked out with all kinds of flowers. It was a beautiful sight, with the sweet floral scent permeating the room.

Gwendolyn was enamored with the bright-colored flowers. There were roses in many different colors, even black.

Alice asked, “Do you like flowers?”

She noticed that Gwendolyn had kept her gaze on the flowers from the time they entered the greenhouse.

The latter smiled sheepishly. “I've never seen so many flowers during winter. This is also the first time I've encountered a wide variety of them.”

Alice was impressed by Gwendolyn's honesty. If she were a pretentious person, she would have never admitted that she had not seen those flowers before. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

She developed a stronger liking for Gwendolyn and felt she was a really good girl.

There was a long, white table in the middle of the greenhouse with all sorts of snacks, fruits, and flowers.

Surrounding it were round tables where the socialites were seated. They were sipping tea and nibbling on flower petals, looking very poised and graceful.

Gwendolyn had never eaten fresh flowers. Today's event was a real eye-opener for her.

When the socialites saw Alice, they stood up immediately and walked toward her.

“Hello, Old Mrs. Lowen.”

Alice nodded and started making small talk with them.

There were several elderly ladies around the same age as Alice. Although their hair was all white, they still looked elegant and dignified in their beautiful evening gowns. They appeared to look younger than their actual age.

The ladies looked at Gwendolyn. “Who is this lady?”

They figured that since Alice had brought her to the party personally, she must be either Alice's successor or the future Mrs. Lowen.

As all eyes were on Gwendolyn, Alice decided to make a formal introduction.

“This is Ms. Gwendolyn Ashton. She is Patrick's girlfriend.”

Everyone understood at once when Alice introduced Gwendolyn. She was indeed the future Mrs. Lowen.

All the guests went up to greet her. “Hello, Ms. Ashton. I'm Ms. Laberge.”

“Hello, Ms. Ashton. I'm Monique Castello. You can call me Monique.”

Candace was sitting at a table furthest away from Gwendolyn and Alice. She had paid a lot of money to get her cousin to bring her to the tea party.

She wanted to experience the tea party for herself so that she could brag to her friends.

After all, not all the wealthy families in Avenport had a chance to attend such a grand event.

Although the Ashton family was rich and powerful, they could not be compared to the elites in the city.

Fortunately, her cousin was married to the second most prominent family in Avenport, the Surrington family. Otherwise, Candace would never have had the opportunity to attend the tea party.

However, never in her wildest dreams would she expect Alice to bring Gwendolyn to the event.
