Super CEO Daddy

Gwendolyn nodded. “Then, I'll have the money ready by tomorrow. Please hurry up and operate on Melanie as soon as possible.”

Lucy felt an oppressive weight lift off her shoulders. Suddenly feeling hungry, she dug into her dinner.

Gwendolyn glimpsed at Melanie, who didn't have much appetite. After eating only a few mouthfuls, Melanie pushed the bowl away and returned to the bed to play with her Barbie doll.

The Barbie doll was a gift from Juliette. Both girls shared a mutual love for it.

Therefore, when Juliette went shopping for dolls, she made sure to get one for Melanie.

Gwendolyn watched as Melanie played merrily. Perhaps, this was the only time that thoughts of her illness did not plague the girl's mind.

Gwendolyn stayed until the mother-daughter duo finished their dinner. By then, the nurse had arrived, and it was time for Lucy to leave for her shift in Night City.

Hence, both of them left the hospital together. Gwendolyn then saw Lucy off at the entrance to Night City.

Before Lucy stepped out of the car, the former asked, “Lucy, do you think I could come back to dance again?”

She had felt pretty good about her performance here that night, and it seemed like everyone missed her.

Although she did not like the place much, she was willing to continue dancing here for survival's sake.

Lucy fell silent for some time. When she turned to look at Gwendolyn, there was a somber expression on her face.
