Chapter 167 Daddy Looks Ready To Kill

The rage building inside him was suffocating; he regretted more than anything agreeing to let Natalie take her own revenge.

“Chris!”

Baron hurled his phone aside and shouted for the Stone family’s butler.

“Sir, what is it?”

Chris treated Baron with the utmost respect. He knew Baron’s true identity, and as the husband of the eldest daughter, Baron was someone Chris understood he needed to serve well.

Baron asked coldly, “Does the house have a gym?”

“Yes. Shall I take you

“Let’s go.”

there?”

Baron had to let his fury out somehow; otherwise, he was afraid he’d tie Natalie to the bed and refuse to let her set foot on the floor.

Chris didn’t know why Baron was so furious, but he still dutifully led him to the gym–and also reported the situation with the eldest daughter and the two children to Waylon.

When Waylon and his wife learned that Natalie had twins, they nearly jumped on a plane right then and there; only Flynn’s calm reassurance kept them from rushing ove·

Sean and Susie, watching their father head to the gym with a stormy face, whispered to each other.

“Did you feel it? Daddy’s got killing intent.”

“More than that; I think he looks like he wants to kill someone right now. It’s terrifying!”

Sean shuddered. Daddy’s beatings hurt.

“Okay, let’s go.”

Natalie had just finished a shower and was blow–drying her hair when the two children came in, leaving her momentarily surprised.

“Do you like this villa?”

“We love it!”

Susie immediately threw herself into Natalie’s arms.

Being a girl, Susie had no trouble fighting for affection.

Sean wanted to fling himself into her arms too, but being a boy, he felt shy; instead, he muttered with a touch of reluctance, “Susie, Mommy’s still drying her hair. Don’t bother her.”

“I won’t!”

Susie turned and stuck her tongue out at him, leaving Sean grinding his teeth in frustration, powerless to do anything about it.

Natalie adored their bickering, though it made her heart ache for her son’s thoughtfulness.

After she put it that way, how could Sean refuse?

Still, his little eyes grew misty.

Mommy really did smell so good.

And she was soft, not at all like being held by Daddy,

Sean relaxed and leaned into her, quiet and obedient.

Susie wasn’t thrilled that her brother was taking up half of Mommy’s arms, but since he was her brother, fine–she’d let him share for now.

Besides, she was a girl; she could cling to Mommy all the time.

With that thought, Susie felt much better.
