Chapter 284
After getting off work, Patrick brought Gwendolyn to a makeover studio next to the office.
A female receptionist welcomed them the moment they walked through the door.
“Welcome! Is there a preferred makeup artist you'd like to work with?”
Just then, the manager of the studio trotted toward them.
“Mr. Lowen!”
Patrick lifted his chin. “Do her makeup and hair. It has to complement her gown.”
With that, the manager brought the duo to the VIP room. Patrick went to sit on the couch, crossing his legs elegantly.
A staff then brought two cups of coffee and some snacks for them.
The man took a sip of the coffee and glanced intentionally at the snacks. They were strawberry cakes and doughnuts—both Gwendolyn's favorite.
Next, he took one doughnut, walked up to the front of the vanity mirror, and fed her without looking into her eyes. At last, he walked back to the couch with great strides.
The woman took a bite and held it in her hand as she chewed. Mm! This is delicious!
She beamed as she looked behind her through the mirror, seeing that he was looking at his phone with his head lowered frowningly. He was likely handling some work matters.
Gwendolyn took another bite of the doughnut, and her heart felt warm and fuzzy inside.
The makeup artist doing her hair grinned and said, “Ms. Ashton, your boyfriend is really sweet to you! He's handsome too!”
Gwendolyn nodded slightly at that.
Undeniably, she felt that having a boyfriend like Patrick was blissful too.
A little over an hour later, her hairdo and makeup were complete. Gwendolyn changed into that gown and held the silver mask in her hand. The sparkling diamond on the right side of the chain was extraordinarily dazzling.
“Patrick, what do you think?” she called out to the man after walking up to him in her high heels.
He raised his eyes and stared at her intently without any changes in his expression. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
However, deep down, he had a feeling that he didn't want anyone to set their eyes on her because she looked way too beautiful and seductive at present.
He had an urge to bring her home and hide her away so that she could only be his, and he could be the only one to admire her beauty.
Gwendolyn lowered her eyes when she noticed that he was only staring at her impassively.
“Don't I look good?”
Suddenly, the man stood up, put the lilac coat on her shoulders, and straightened it out.
“I really wish to pull out a gun and kill anyone who sets their eyes on you.”
After that, he placed his arm around her waist as they walked out of the studio. A few staff followed behind them to see the couple out respectfully.
Gwendolyn was still immersed in what he said earlier. This man... Once he speaks, he'll scare the hell out of everyone.
However, from his words, she felt she must look utterly gorgeous.
That was enough.
Liam and the driver were already waiting downstairs. The moment they saw Patrick and Gwendolyn, they got out of the car and opened the door for the two.
Patrick patted her slim waist lightly. “Get in.”
Gwendolyn got into the car while he went in from the other door.
Liam turned to her after he boarded the car and praised, “Ms. Ashton, you look lovely tonight!”
She really looks different tonight. Her already mesmerizing face only looks better with exquisite makeup on. Moreover, the necklace on her neck complements her whole temperament. It helps her to magnify the temperament that she has been hiding all along, intensifying her aura.
Gwendolyn smiled faintly and answered, “Thanks!”
Certainly, it was a satisfying thing to be praised by others.
Yet, Patrick's expression turned grim as he uttered coldly, “Liam, Larry, watch where you're looking.”
He wasn't happy about it at all. She already attracts enough men without makeup on. Now, she's gotten even more alluring.
Patrick was too domineering. He hoped that all men in the world were blind so that they couldn't see her beauty.
Liam and Larry responded in unison, “Yes, Mr. Lowen. We're blind.”
