Triplets’ Attack: Game Over Daddy Chapter 170
At this time, Angeline approached them and spoke in an icy tone. “The auction is about to start, Zay. We’ll sit over
there.”
Angeline wore a pale green gown paired with a white velvet coat. She had on delicate makeup, and she was holding
a vintage purse.
Gwendolyn nodded at Angeline. “Mrs. Surrington,” she greeted.
Angeline tipped her head back in response before pulling Zayden away.
Zayden was unhappy at that. “Mom, I was talking to Gwen. You can go ahead first.”
I haven’t seen her in a while. I wonder what she’s up to. She was never around every time I went to meet her. It’s
as if she’s avoiding me. Now that she’s right in front of me, I have to talk to her.
Angeline replied coldly, “Don’t forget why we’re here today, Zay.”

With that said, he grabbed her hand and dragged her to the second floor.
Zayden watched as Gwendolyn was taken away by Patrick. As a man, Zayden understood other men well, and he
knew Patrick had feelings for Gwendolyn.
Isn’t he getting engaged next Saturday?
Tugging at Zayden, Angeline chirped, “See, Zay? She climbed up the social ladder.”
On the other side, Gwendolyn followed Patrick to a private room on the second floor. Kevin and Lucas sat together,
leaving two other seats beside them.
Pointing to a seat, Patrick uttered, “You sit here. When you see something you like, tell me.”
Gwendolyn initially walked behind Liam. After she heard Patrick, she pondered for a moment before taking a seat.
The view of the stage was pretty clear from their room. Although there was a giant screen behind, things looked
more real when seen with the naked eye.
The auction started at half-past three on time. The first item to be auctioned was Portrait of a Beauty, which Kevin
desired.
Many people bid for it, but Kevin obtained it in the end. Gwendolyn frowned slightly.
It must be nice to be rich. Kevin spent five hundred thousand on a mere painting, yet he seems happy as if that
amount is nothing to him.
She could not understand or admire this.
Then she thought back to the previous five years. She had worked hard every day, but she could barely provide for
her children.
Aren’t I working right now? I’m accompanying my boss to buy things here.
The following items that were auctioned were ceramic pieces. All three of them were uninterested, so no one bid
for them.
An agate bracelet was next. It was also an antique from the sixth century, and its starting price was one hundred

Gwendolyn merely glanced at it. At first, she wanted to let Patrick buy her something she liked, but she decided
against it as each item was priced at six figures.
She could not afford to owe this favor. It was better to let this off.
Meanwhile, Patrick was sipping on some coffee. He did not spare a look at the stage at all. Nothing caught his
attention, as expected.
Feeling a little thirsty, Gwendolyn picked up her cup to drink some coffee.
The coffee tasted fresh and aromatic, so she took another sip. The fragrance lingered within her mouth.
Right then, Lucas suddenly raised his plate, and the host on the stage announced, “Number fifteen is bidding six
hundred thousand. Are there any other bids?”
At that, Patrick and Kevin looked at him simultaneously. “That’s for women, Luke. Are you getting it for a woman?”
the latter inquired.
Pausing for a while, Lucas simply smiled and replied, “It’s a secret.”
The host waited for a moment. No one else was bidding, so he concluded, “Congratulations to number fifteen for
winning the bid.”
