Chapter 114
Kimberly was right. Indeed, there were a lot of people who wanted to sleep with Gerald, hoping that
one day their status would be elevated if they could get pregnant and marry into the Patterson family.
His stepmother, Hannah Patterson, also had the same idea. She wanted Gerald to marry someone that
she could control and consolidate her position in the Patterson family.
Under the pretense of caring for him, she had frequently introduced him to socialites. from all over the
country.
In fact, Gerald was able to take over Patterson Finance Group because Gerald’s father was too
useless. Even Gerald’s grandfather, Graham Patterson, had no idea how he had such a useless son.
Meanwhile, Graham’s other two sons were so selfish that he was worried his hard- earned family
business would be destroyed by them.
After deliberating about it and weighing the pros and cons, he decided to choose Gerald to become the
heir to Patterson Finance Group.
Gerald did live up to Graham’s expectations, and under the former’s management that year, Patterson
Finance Group doubled in size and profitability. It was the best
achievement they had.
In this way. Gerald particularly had a right to speak in Patterson Finance Group and the whole
Patterson family. Even Graham was wary of him.
He was no longer a fledgling young brat.
Moreover, Gerald had his own thoughts. Thus, when Graham needed something, he would
communicate with Gerald in such a manner as if the former were negotiating about it.
It was also the same with the rest of the Patterson family.
Now, Hannah could not find a breakthrough, so she decided to take a chance by using this method.
However, Gerald was unmoved by her tactic.
He already had someone he liked. Thus, he would not let anyone control him as if he were merely a
puppet.
Soon, the car arrived at Maitland International Hotel.
The driver said in a low voice, “We’re here, Mr. Patterson.”
When Kimberly heard that they had reached their destination, she wanted to get up in a hurry.
However, she forgot that her seat belt was still fastened. Thus, she was stopped. by her seat belt and
pulled back to her seat once again.
Gerald realized that the woman was in a hurry to escape from him. He hoped that his offering himself NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
to her just now did not cause her any trouble.
Furthermore, Gerald was very upset at the thought of leaving her so soon.
He reached out his hand and said to Kimberly domineeringly, “Take out your phone.”
Kimberly was confused. She did not know what he wanted her phone for, but she inexplicably still
handed it over obediently.
Perhaps it was because he had done her a great favor and she already regarded him as her friend.
Gerald tapped on her phone to light the screen before asking her to enter the password.
After the phone was unlocked, Gerald first entered his telephone number in the address book and
saved it as a new contact under his name. “Gerald Patterson,”
Then, after operating it, he clicked on WhatsApp and searched for the exclusive QR code that he made
for her. Then, he scanned the code and added her as a friend.
Later, after yet another series of actions, he handed the phone back to her again and said
domineeringly. Tm your benefactor. Don’t delete it!”
Over the years, she had always been the one who was domineering. Moreover, her adoptive brothers
cared for her so much that she had never been threatened like this before.
Thus, Kimberly was a little unaccustomed to it and still in a daze.
Meanwhile, Gerald had leaned over and unfastened Kimberly’s seat belt.
When Kimberly felt the man that she was not close with started to lean close to her abruptly, she
wanted to dodge out of reflex.
She was a rather conservative woman. Even if the man was excellent and very nice, she could not
simply kiss him on the first day they had met
To her, it would be a very unbelievable situation.
In the end. Kimberly realized that Gerald was just helping her to unfasten her seat belt. She was
rendered slightly speechless and embarrassed because she thought too highly

about herself.
When Gerald looked at her face, he noticed that she was blushing. Naturally, he could see through her
mind and thus, he smiled wickedly.
Kimberly’s instinctive reaction made Gerald happy. It indicated that she was not disgusted with him and
she did not hate him.
Without a doubt, it was a huge gain for him that day.
Gerald sent Kimberly to the lobby of the hotel. Then, Kimberly bid him farewell.
Although he wanted to send her up to her room, he felt that it was a little inappropriate. After all, haste
made waste.
After saying goodbye to Gerald, Kimberly strode briskly into the elevator like she was a deer that had
regained freedom. She was feeling edgy the entire night, and she felt she was nearly having a
breakdown.
First, she had to deal with Christopher, and then Gerald.
Although the situations were different, neither of them was easy to deal with.
Gerald watched Kimberly enter the elevator before he left. Seeing her leave in such a hurry, he could
not help but smile. The beautiful smile complimented his good- looking face even more.
Noah was fully involved in what happened just now. It was just as he had expected. Christopher had
fallen in love with Kimberly again.
He did not know about the three little cuties, so he was still confused about what they were talking
about.
After listening for a long time, he finally knew that Kimberly secretly gave birth to three children behind
Christopher’s back.
At present, the children were in the Larson residence, and Christopher even met them.
Originally, it was already a shocking piece of news that day when he discovered that Kimberly was
Katherine. However, he did not expect that it was just a prelude.
It turned out that the most shocking thing was something else entirely.
However, it was indeed slightly confusing now. His best friend finally found the ex-wife who had been
hiding for four years, changed her identity, and even became another person. Moreover, she was
probably a more powerful CEO than Christopher was.
These two even had three children who were already more than three years old.
When Noah thought that Christopher had only met the children for the first time after the children were
more than three years old, the former felt a little sympathetic toward his best friend.
The most difficult thing to deal with now was that a seemingly powerful love rival had appeared.
It could be that Kimberly might marry someone else and take the three little cuties with
her.
Then, for the rest of their lives, Christopher’s children would call someone else their father.
Felix stood aside and merely looked at Christopher who was in a daze. The former did not dare to ask
what to do next.
Therefore, he had to turn to Noah for help.
After all, the two men had always in a close friendship. Thus, it would be more natural for Noah to ask
about their next course of action.
Felix was wary.
Nevertheless, Noah was no better than Christopher at this time. In fact, if anyone else had suffered
such continuous fatal blows, the person would probably not have been any better than Christopher.
However, Noah knew that they should not continue to be in an impasse. It was already very late.
Christopher still had to give some kind of instructions, whether they were to stay in Mysonna to rest or
return to Norham overnight.
“Christopher, what are we going to do next?” Noah took it upon himself to ask the question.
Hearing Noah’s question, Felix was silently grateful to him. After all, they, the subordinates, did not
know how to deal with Christopher anymore.
“Find out where she stays, Christopher replied coldly. His expression remained unchanged.
Of course, Noah knew the person that he was talking about was Kimberly. It seemed that Christopher
planned to continue to stay in Mysonna that day.
When Noah thought about it, he breathed a sigh of relief.
