บททั้งหมดของ The Trap of The CEO's Ex-Wife: บทที่ 141 - บทที่ 150

With the night still young and fearing that they might suffer from indigestion after such a hearty meal, Patricia encouraged them to walk it off downstairs.Although it was deep into autumn and the cold wind was howling, the temperatures in the south were generally much warmer than the north. Everyone was wearing lightweight down jackets, and after a while of walking, they felt warm and toasty, not cold in the slightest.Jade curiously asked, “Patricia, how is Randy recovering?”“He's doing very well,” Patricia replied. “If the next two surgeries go as smoothly as this one, he will be like a normal child, no longer having to worry about his heart condition flaring up at any moment.”Jade exclaimed excitedly, “Does that mean he can come play at our place then? Let’s set a time and go on a trip together! Bungee jumping, mountain climbing... I heard that the Purple Mount offers paragliding from over two thousand meters up; it’s thrilling. There's also diving, skiing, and so much more...”

Seeing him like this, Patricia's eyes reddened and gradually misted over; to prevent Charles from seeing, she took a deep breath, holding back her tears."Let's go! After I drop you off, I still need to visit the hospital."Charles kept backing away until he was against the wall, unable to retreat further. He stopped and stared at Patricia in disbelief."You're willing to sever our mother-son relationship just to get rid of me?"Patricia’s heart was resolute as she deliberately kept a stern face, "I merely wish for you to return to the Langley family. Even if you blame me, it doesn’t matter to me. No matter what, the blood of the Langley family runs through your veins."She knew all too well that if she told Charles the truth, he would never leave. He might even feel obliged to protect her. She couldn't be that selfish, to leave a child with such danger.Catching the fleeting look of reluctance and distress in her eyes, Charles was momentarily stunned, t

Hearing that Charles was missing, Patricia bolted upright from the bed, her voice becoming shrill without her realizing, "What did you say? Charles is missing?"Martin blamed himself: "I had been with him all day, and just when I went back to my room to shower, he disappeared. None of the servants saw him leave, and it was only when we checked the security cameras that we spotted him. He must have avoided the servants and slipped out secretly."Patricia’s heart leapt to her throat, her fatigue swept away as she immediately jumped out of bed, "He hasn't come back, send someone to look for him at once, I'm going too, inform me if there's any news!""Will do!"After ending the call, Patricia tried Charles’s mobile phone immediately, only to be met with the notification that it had been switched off.In a panic and without hesitation, she grabbed her phone and car keys and rushed out the door.Jade had just sent Fannie back to her room to bathe and saw Patricia's

Charles pursed his lips, looking at her as if she were a fool."If I couldn't notice something was off with you today, given my IQ of 180, I'd be underselling myself!" he said.Patricia: "…? Was it that obvious?"Just then, there was a 'ding,' and the elevator doors opened.Mother and son hand in hand, stepped inside.Charles continued earnestly, "I didn't notice last night, but this morning, I saw that something was wrong with you! At first, I thought you were just tired, hadn't rested well. I didn't pay much attention to it. But when you said you were giving me back to Daddy, I realized the situation was far more serious than I had thought."Patricia rolled her eyes at him, "And you cried so sadly? To an outsider, it might seem as though you had lost your parents!""…??" Charles replied helplessly, "Would anyone really curse themselves like that?"Patricia: "…??"That comparison really didn't seem quite appropriate.Charles went on, "I was t

Samuel acknowledged that the Langley family was now Martin's domain and was overwhelmed by a sense of powerlessness he had never experienced before."I'm doing this for the Langley family! I've met young Charles; he's bound to become a remarkable heir. I don't want to waste talent."The intensity deepened in Martin’s gaze as he steadily looked at him, "I know, and there’s no need for your concern. Let’s consider this the only time, no precedent for the future."Having said that, he started to walk away.But after a few steps, he stopped without turning back, "Charles refuses to leave Patricia, and you don’t want him running away from home again, do you? Should anything happen, who would bear the consequences?"With his final words uttered, Martin left.Watching his figure disappear from view, Samuel collapsed onto the sofa inside his home—After leaving the Langley Mansion, Martin sent a message to Patricia on his way back."I've settled things with h
