Gwendolyn had just arrived home with the kids when she saw his text. Before she could reply and ask

him what fondue he wanted, another text arrived.

After deleting the words she typed earlier, she replied: You'll still pay me even if I don't work today,

right?

That was her primary concern. As she owed him a lot of money, she didn't want to take any days off.

At the thought of the theft today, which caused her to lose the money for Melanie's surgery, she felt

sadness gripping her throat. Thus, she wanted to work hard to punish herself.

Gwendolyn vowed to work hard to repay her debts and earn the money to pay for Melanie's surgery

together with Lucy.

After coming out of the shower, Patrick dried his hair with a towel before glancing at his phone.

He replied: Of course.

Less than a second later, he received Gwendolyn's reply: Mr. Lowen, you're amazing! Muacks!

At the thought of not having to work on Sundays, Gwendolyn felt rather satisfied. Patrick's a great

employer, huh?

However, Patrick's brows snapped together when he saw “muacks” in her reply.

D*mn it, she's seducing me over a text!

After dinner, Gwendolyn headed to the hospital with a lunchbox. Lucy was eating when she entered the

ward.

The meal was from the hospital's cafeteria. As Lucy seemed to have no appetite, the food was

obviously not delicious.

Melanie spotted Gwendolyn and flashed a smile. “Ms. Gwen!”

Hearing her daughter's weak greeting, Lucy turned at her shoulder. “Gwen? Why are you here again?'

At the sight of Lucy's reddened eyes, Gwendolyn knew she had been worried about getting the money

to pay for Melanie's surgery.

She took a seat beside Lucy and offered the lunchbox to her.

“Ms. Ziegler prepared your favorite food for you.”

Gwendolyn then opened another lunchbox prepared for Melanie and started feeding the latter.

Melanie was in good spirits today, so she grinned and said, “Ms. Gwen, I can eat by myself.”

The little girl was so skinny she was practically skin and bones. It was a heartbreaking sight.

Gwendolyn helped her place the lunchbox on the table so she could help herself to the food.

Lucy sat at another table and enjoyed her dinner. Camille's cooking suited her tastebuds.

“Ms. Ziegler can cook well. This is great!” she praised.

Lucy had enough of takeout food. She was about to puke at the sight of them.

Gwendolyn sat at the edge of the bed and revealed, “Luce, I was initially planning to pawn my ring to

pay for Melanie's medical bill. However, the ring got stolen today.”

Lucy's eyes widened in shock. “Your ring got stolen in broad daylight? Thieves are getting outrageous

nowadays!”

Her gaze darkened as she said apologetically, “Gwen, it was all my fault. I'll get you a new ring when I

get extra money in the future.”

Gwendolyn told no one about the origin of the ring.

After all, it was a ridiculous affair. She had no idea if it was a dream or reality. However, as she had

given birth to the triplets, she knew the night had happened for real.

Nevertheless, she couldn't bring herself to spill the truth.

“Luce, my neighbor is willing to lend us five hundred thousand. I'll get the money to treat Melanie's

condition. We can pay the money back slowly.”

Tears welled up in Lucy's eyes.

“Gwen, I'm trying to sell my house. I can pay the money back after selling it. Thanks for helping me

out.”

Lucy had gone to everyone she knew to ask for help. Alas, no one agreed to lend her money. After

going on her knees before her relatives, she was disappointed to realize that none of them paid her any

heed.

Perhaps they think of Melanie as a bottomless pit. I don't have any savings, so they dare not lend me

any money.
