The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge novel Chapter 821

All he wanted was a happy family and a bright future together.

Gwyneth pulled her hand away and turned her face, refusing to look at him.

“Hawthorne, I don’t want to see you. Just go. Our marriage is over. There’s no need to hold the ceremony at the end of the year; I’ll tell my mother myself. I’ll take the children back to the Langford estate to raise them. You don’t deserve to be their father. They’ll grow up to be as despicable and morally corrupt as you, and I won’t let my children have a father like that.”

Gwyneth’s heart ached as she spoke.

Hawthorne didn't press the issue. If she needed space, he would give it to her. He had already asked Leonie to come and keep her company. As long as Gwyneth and the babies were okay, he could rest easy. There were still matters at the company that needed his attention. Once he finished his work and held the wedding ceremony with Gwyneth at the end of the year, he could finally return with her to Starfall City and leave the affairs of Greenvale behind for good.

Just then, Hawthorne’s phone rang. Gwyneth recognized the familiar ringtone, and a knot of anxiety tightened in her chest, her mind instinctively jumping to Patti Yale.

Hawthorne answered the call on speakerphone right in front of her.

“Mr. Everhart, the traffic police found your car after a collision on Ocean Drive. Surveillance footage shows a woman was driving, but she disappeared from the scene, abandoning the car on the side of the road.”

Gwyneth’s ears perked up. A woman driving his car—it could only be Patti Yale.

Hawthorne recalled the call from his housekeeper earlier. Patti must have taken the car while drunk.

“Understood. Have them tow the car for now. I’ll be there to handle it shortly.”
