Chapter 179 I Be the Godfather

Anyway, she was determined to make Hugh publicly acknowledge that he was Hudson’s father.

Once everyone was seated, Bethan stood up, raising her glass.

“From now on, we’re neighbors. Let’s keep in touch.

Cheers!”

Everyone raised their glasses, but Hugh sat there,

gripping his glass tightly, unmoving.

Bethan picked up his glass and coaxed, “Honey, do me a favor.”

That single word “honey” seemed like a magic spell, making Hugh obediently take the glass.

After the first toast, Bethan said, “I’ve taken Ms. Ridley’s kid as my godson. Let’s get closer in the future.”

After that, she quickly winked at Megan.

Megan stood up and poured juice for Hudson. “Hudson,

they’re your godmother and godfather now.”

Bethan corrected, saying, “And just call me Bethan. Don’t change how you address my husband.”

Hudson called out, “Okay, Bethan.” –

Bethan replied cheerfully, “The apartment upstairs is my welcome gift to you.”

Megan quietly prompted her son, and Hudson sweetly called out, “Daddy!”

Hugh sat there and quietly grabbed Bethan’s wrist.

Bethan winced in pain and looked down at him.

Hugh met her eyes and said, “Bethan, I don’t agree.”

With Hugh’s public rejection, Megan stood there awkwardly, not knowing whether to sit or stand.

Mason kindly motioned for Megan and Hudson to sit

down and couldn’t help but retort, “What’s there to object to? He’s called you that before.”

Hugh was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.

He glared at Mason and snapped, “Shut up.”

Mason then gave Hugh a challenging look.

Arthur butted in. “Bethy, did this woman give your husband a cuckold? This little clown doesn’t look like your husband at all.”

Hearing this, Bethan looked at Hugh.

Hugh’s look at Arthur was menacing. “You, too, shut up.”

Megan’s palms were sweating as she clenched her fists.

Damn it.

This bastard has sharp eyes.

He’d seen that Hudson wasn’t Hugh’s biological son.

Mason scanned everyone’s faces but didn’t expose the truth in public.

Seeing that Hugh was about to flip the table, Bethan 17:09

quickly said, “Hugh, you’re my husband. If I’ve taken this kid as my godson and you won’t let him call you daddy, who else should he call daddy?”

Hugh warned Bethan, “You’re not allowed to take him as your godson, either.”

Arthur pulled Bethan up. “Bethy, how about you be the godmother and I be the godfather?”

The moment Arthur opened his mouth, Megan lost her cool.

Glancing awkwardly at Bethan, she quipped. “Mrs. Cavill, your friend really knows how to crack jokes.”

Arthur grumbled under his breath, “I don’t joke with ugly

stuff.”

Bethan shot Arthur a warning look. “Mr. Locke, my husband is the real father. Stay out of this.”

After that, Bethan subtly signaled Megan, who then whispered something in her son’s ear.

Ammediately, Hudson pointed at Hugh and declared, “7:09

want this daddy. He loves me the most and will buy me loads of toys!”

Hugh tightened his grip on the lighter, his face rigid with

anger.

Seeing this, Mason snapped at Arthur, “Hey, Arthur, cut it out. Stop trying to steal someone else’s kid. This little guy is Mr. Cavill’s pride and joy. Quit joking around.”

Everyone wore different expressions, but Hugh looked as stormy as a brewing thundercloud.

On the surface, the atmosphere seemed jovial, but there was an underlying tension in the air.

Bethan could sense Hugh’s anger, but she didn’t care.

She figured he was secretly thrilled but just too busy weighing the pros and cons to drop his act.

Clearing her throat, Bethan half-joked to Hugh, “Honey, don’t let others’ opinions get to you. Hudson’s your own flesh and blood. He’ll look after you in your old age. If you break this kid’s heart, he might just pull the plug on Fou when you’re in the hospital.”

Right in front of everyone, Bethan locked eyes with Hugh, who stared back, his eyes blazing with fury.

Trying hard to hold his temper in check, Hugh stood up

and said, “I’m going out for a smoke.”

Then he strode out of the dining room.
