Patrick gestured at himself eager to liven things up. "Come on. Do your worst."
Finding him childish, Richard simply ignored him.
Sean could not stand it right then.
How did Patrick even manage to survive in the political scene? With that personality of his, his rivals would eat him up and spit him out at any moment!
Nonetheless, he suddenly kicked out a wave, splashing it at Patrick and hitting him in the face.
"Hey! Are you a kid? I wasn't playing with you!" Patrick snapped grumpily.
"Look who's talking, thirty-year-old who acts like a ten-year-old."
"Are you mocking me?"
"What do you think?"
"F*ck!" Patrick shrieked even as he kept splashing Sean repeatedly. "I've had it with you! You stood in my way for love, and you're now interfering with me bonding with my future son?! You really have a lot of free time, don't you?!"
Sean was naturally not to be trifled with, and he promptly retaliated with even more splashes at Patrick.
All at once, the modest-sized pool was filled with splashes, with Richard being the victim and unable to avoid the splashes.
He was certainly confused—both men's ages combined were over seventy, but they were somehow getting addicted to this childish game?!
Still, he could clearly see Patrick's eyes turning red from rage since he kept losing, which made him a little happy.
He certainly did not like Patrick, especially since Patrick kept asking to be his daddy.
He had a daddy anyway, and his mommy would always be with him.
