My billionaire husband spoils me too much novel Chapter 170

[ Mr. Hopkins, your mate has been in a vegetative state for the last six years, but you married the woman he loved. You should die in your boots! ]

Christina's face turned pale as she couldn't understand what Larry just said.

But that he wanted Patrick to die made her nervous. It sounded like a curse.

For a while, people standing in the inner room of the Fishers looked terrible. Patrick did not speak. He just narrowed his eyes and looked at Larry in front of him fiercely.

Perhaps because he was still a little afraid, Larry said no more words and left in a huff.

"Stop, Larry!"

Charles shouted at him in a cold voice, as he didn't want to let him off like this. He definitely crossed the line for insulting Patrick in public.

The bodyguards on both sides looked nervously at Mrs. Fisher at the same time. Should they stop Larry?

Mrs. Fisher and other family members were panicked, with their lips pursed. Hence, as there was no instruction, the bodyguards did not dare to act at will.

Though it was at the Fishers's place, no one dared to offend Patrick.

As long as there were things related to the Hopkinses, it was always wise to keep a distance.

Charles's face was darkened with anger as he watched the fat figure disappear at the banquet. He could not help but curse, "After getting lucky in these few months, how dare he to be so uncaring."

Was Larry out of his mind or was someone really there to support him?

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward and grim.

The people there were at a loss: the bodyguards straightened their backs, while Mrs. Fisher could no longer keep that fake smile. But as the violin concerto started playing, though she wanted to leave the room, she felt it impolite to do that. It was such a dilemma.

Damn it, Larry!

He not only offended Patrick, but almost implicated their the Fishers!

"Larry's business has nothing to do with us. He may just run into some luck. His investment projects have been in full swing recently. Maybe he's just doing some shameful and immoral things."

With a fawning smile, Miss Fisher tried hard to belittle Larry, her uncle, to relieve the tension... "You don't have to be angry, this kind of people will have his retribution sooner or later."

Retribution.

This words totally meant something else right now.

"Patrick... You should die in your boots." Under this context, Larry's words now meant that Patrick deserved to be punished.

Mrs. Fisher felt her daughter was too mindless. She immediately glared at her daughter and told her to shut up to avoid getting into trouble.

Patrick remained silent, hence, the atmosphere became even grimmer.

Christina felt the hand on her waist put more pressure, and made her uncomfortable. It was a rare thing to see Patrick was insulted to his face. Besides his grandfather, who else dared to treat him like that.

But she knew that Patrick was not the kind of person who would get angry if being insulted. He would feel it unworthy to get mad. He didn't take others seriously. How could he mind what they said?

But now he was holding her so tightly. He seemed to really care.

"Hey, Charles, why are you here? Didn't you say you were going to look for the baby with Chandler?"

Christina's voice broke the ice. Her tone was so natural as if she didn't go through what had just happened, and just changed the subject without any clue. "Has Chandler found his son?"

Charles was stunned to hear that.

He glanced around and answered, "Yes, Geoffrey is playing at the theme park. Chandler is accompanying his son now."_x0010_

Christina raised her eyebrows and naturally tugged at the Patrick's arm. "Didn't you say you'd bring that little boy over to introduce us?"

Charles could not answer as Christina was asking Patrick.
