Chapter 258 Hunter's Intent to Kill Fannie
Hunter sent Patricia home.
Charles and Fannie immediately ran over, anxiously asking:, "Mommy, did you finish the check-up? How is it? Have you recovered? Is there anything else we need to be careful about?"
The two little ones just thought Patricia was sick, unaware that she was pregnant.
Patricia shook her head:. "I'm much better,. I just need a few more days of rest, and I'll be like a normal person."
Fannie jumped up happily:. "That's great,. mMommy is finally better!. Does that mean we can celebrate the New Year with dDaddy? Mommy, I want to celebrate the New Year with dDaddy."
Hearing her words, Hunter's heart felt a slight displeasure, slightly displeased hearing her words, but he didn't show it.
Patricia refused:. "If you want to celebrate the New Year with dDaddy, then I'll send you over at that time!" then."
Fannie pouted and said:, "No, I want our family of five to celebrate together!. Mommy, I've never celebrated the New Year with dDaddy,; I've been waiting for this day for five years,. yYou certainly won't refuse me, right?"
"This..."
Um..." Patricia couldn't bear to refuse her children's requests.
But under the current circumstances, it really wasn't suitable for her to celebrate the New Year with Martin.
So, she hardened her heart and said:, "It's really not possible,. yYour daddy already has a girlfriend, and he might celebrate the New Year with her. It's not appropriate for me to be there."
"Ah..."
Charles and Fannie both looked surprised.
"Daddy has a girlfriend? Who? Why don't we know?"
Patricia explained:, "I just ran into them while having lunch with Hunter. They said it themselves."
Even though Martin hadn't said a word, since the woman introduced herself and he didn't deny it, it must be true.
Seeing that mommy wasn't lying, Fannie's emotions suddenly became agitated.
"I don't want it, I don't want a stepmom, I don't want a stepdad, I want my own daddy and mommy, wuwuwaah... Mommy, why can't you remarry dDaddy? I don't want our family to be apart,. I want us to live together, wuwuaah..."
The little girl cried heartbreakingly.
Tears fell like rain.
Patricia's heart ached, but apart from that, she was powerless.
It was Martin who didn't want her; what could she do?
Seeing Patricia overwhelmed by her crying, Hunter reached out to comfort her, but before he could speak, she pushed his hand away.
"Don't touch me,. I hate you the most,. iIt's because you took my mommy away,. tThat's why my daddy and mommy can't remarry. Don't think just because mMommy accepts you, we will, too. No way. I will never accept you,. I only have one daddy. As long as
I'm here, I won't let my mommy marry you."
Hunter's hand was slapped hard by Fannie, leaving a red mark on the back of his hand.
Don't be fooled by her being only five years old; she was surprisingly strong.
It was as if she had channeled all her hate for Hunter into that slap.
Hunter's face turned dark in an instantinstantly, a flash of ruthlessness sweeping across his eyes.
Seeing Fannie show no mercy, Patricia immediately became angry and for the first time lost her temper at Fannie:. "Fannie, what on earth are you trying to do? Have I ever taught you to behave like this? Apologize to Hunter right now."
For the first time, PatriciaMommy yelled at her, and it was because of Hunter, which made. Fannie feel even morefelt aggrieved and disliked Hunter even more.
"I won't, I won't apologize, I've done nothing wrong!. I hate him, I don't like him, I don't like him touching me, what's wrong with me pushing him away. Ever since Mommy's hadwith him, she doesn't love me anymore, I hate Mommy..."
After venting all her grievances in one breath, she turned and ran back to her room.
Charles, who had been silent all along, politely apologized to Hunter: "Hunter, . "I'm sorry, Fannie is still young, and she's been spoiled by me and Mommy. Please don't blame her. I will talk to her."
Hunter pretended to be magnanimous:. "It's okay, she's just a child, I won't blame her."
"Thank you!. She's upset right now, and I'm worried about her. I'm going to check on her. Please make yourself at home!"." After saying that, Charles turned and went back to the room.
A series of events left Patricia feeling extremely annoyed.
She lost all her appetite.
"Hunter, I'm sorry,. I'm a bit tired, and I need to rest!. Why don't you go back first, and we can have dinner together some other time." ?"
Hunter knew she was in a bad mood, and staying would only make her more upset.

"Okay!"

Hunter stood in the elevator, watching as the doors slowly closed in front of him, Patricia's face getting smaller until it was completely out of sight. The smile on his face instantly twisted, his eyes bloodshot.
The smile on his face instantly twisted, and his eyes were bloodshot. Sinister, terrifying.
It, it made one's skin crawl.
The hand by his side suddenly clenched, its knuckles turning white.
Because he was trying to restrain himself, his body shook violently, his palms instantly covered in a fine sweat.
Fannie—
The, the little nuisance, was in the way.
ThinkingDid she canreally think she could stop him from getting to Patricia?
She'sShe was living on borrowed time.
He needed to find a way to completely removeeliminate this stumbling block.
No one could stopprevent him from being with Patricia, one . He would tackle each obstacle one at a time, until all were cleared.
...
After seeing off Hunter, Patricia went to Fannie's room.
The little girl was lying on the bed, her small shoulders heaving, crying heartbreakingly.
as she cried. Charles, not good at consoling girls, stood by helplessly by, not knowing what to do.
Seeing herPatricia come in, he looked at her like she was a savior.
"Mommy, I really can't handle it,; you deal with the mess you've made."
After saying that,," he immediatelysaid, then ran out of the room as if being chased by a monster.
Patricia sighed inwardly, sat down beside Fannie, and gently rubbed the back of her head:. "What? Still mad at Mommy?"
Fannie ignored her, continuing to cry.
Patricia sighed:. "Although Mommy is with Hunter now, I didn't say I would marry him right awayimmediately. The way you treated him just now was indeed too much."
Hearing her words, Fannie finally paid attention to her, looking up with tearful eyes:
. "You really won't marry Hunter?"
Patricia nodded:. "Not for now."
To placate the little one, she had to wrong Hunter for the time being.
He now. Surely, he should understand her. .
Fannie was dissatisfied:. "What do you mean 'not for now'?"
Patricia gently said:, "You should know, on that the day I married was going to marry your daddy, he was the one who called off the wedding, not me!. So, whether we can remarry is not up to me.
Do you want me to kneel down and beg him to take me back?"
Fannie immediately said:, "Then I'll talk to daddy,Daddy and ask him to marry you again."
Patricia shook her head with a smile:, smiling. "Marriage is about mutual willingness. If he doesn't want to marry me, even if he listens to you now, we'll end up divorced again in the future.. Do you want me to be abandoned by your daddy a third time? Aren't you afraid I won't be able to take it?"
Fannie blinked her watery eyes, seemingly understanding but not quite.
Patricia hugged her tenderly:. "You're still young and don't understand, but you'll get it when you're older!. Although Hunter is not your biological daddy, trust me, he will treat you as his own."
Fannie instinctively rejected Hunter: "Anyway"Even if you can't marry Daddy, you're still not allowed to marry him. Even if you can't marry daddy, you can't marry him. Hunter," Fanny said, "Although his life story is sad, he's not my real daddy,. I just can't accept him."
To calm her down, Patricia agreed to everything.
said, "Alright, alright, I promise you,. I won't marry him for now..."
Fannie then smiled contentedly.
That night, Patricia told Hunter the whole story and shared her thoughts with Hunter and told him the whole story. .
"Fannie can't accept you right now,. lLet's get engaged first, and as for the wedding, then we can hold itthe wedding after I'veshe's won her over and eased her concerns." have eased."
"Calm her down? When"And when will that be? What if she never agrees, do? Will we never get married?"
Hunter said.
He sat back on the bed, a layer ofhis face cast in a menacing look came over him,shadow by the pale moonlight casting over his handsome face, making him look sinister. .
Fannie—
"... She was tempting fate.
