Chapter 175 Curtis Turned Into a Show-Off Husband
As soon as Logan boarded the plane, Steffen received a message.
Glancing at Max, Nick, and Owen in the private room, Steffen hesitated and he was unsure whether to report the news or not.
Curtis raised his eyebrows. "What's the matter?"
Steffen quickly lowered her voice and said, "Logan has taken leave and is currently on the plane. He should arrive in Prodiff in about two hours."
"Hmm," Curtis responded indifferently. "It doesn't matter."
Owen was a bit surprised. "Didn't you say that your nephew couldn't come back until you won your wife?"
"Yes, I won her. My wife just confessed her feelings to me," Curtis revealed with a knowing smile. "Her voice is especially pleasant. You single guys wouldn't understand how nice it sounds."
Max was speechless.
Owen was silent.
"Just a friendly reminder, the New Year is coming soon. You two will probably be relentlessly pressured by your elders to get married."
Max was speechless.
Owen was speechless.
"I won't be pressured to get married this year, but I'll probably be pressured to have children. You two wouldn't understand this kind of pain."
Max was speechless.
Owen was speechless.
Nick couldn't help but speak up. "Mr. Riley, you're so amazing. Please teach Max quickly! He is having a hard time! He's almost thirty and hasn't even touched a woman's hand!"
Max looked at Nick with a sharp gaze.
But Nick seemed oblivious and continued speaking.
"I've been with Max for so long, and the only woman who wasn't afraid to pursue him was Olivia. But now, Olivia is heartbroken, so I don't think she'll bother him anymore. I'm worried he might be a bachelor for life! After all, he had so many fiancées who later encountered misfortunes. Alas..."
Max was speechless.
What's with the slightly disdainful tone?
Owen's expression changed slightly when he heard Nick mention Olivia.
He knew about Olivia's situation, and today he had called the two of them together because he was worried that they might have some grievances in their hearts.
Since the topic had reached this point, Owen couldn't help but ask, "Do you want to beat up Max for what he did to Olivia?"
Curtis chuckled. "Do I seem like someone who can't distinguish right from wrong?"
Owen's voice grew louder. "But he hurt Olivia! Shouldn't you give him a few punches? Curtis, give me some face. Don't keep everything hidden inside. Just punch him a few times to vent your anger. The three of us should continue to have a good relationship."
Max sipped his red wine, a red liquid hanging at the corner of his mouth. Then he looked at Owen with a sinister gaze. "What? Are you not at ease if he doesn't beat me up?"
Owen was caught off guard and rubbed his nose in annoyance. "Why did the General scare me so many times, and he never once scared you?"
Curtis glanced at Owen. "How about introducing Olivia to you and letting you comfort her wounded heart?"
"No way! I have no feelings for that girl!" Owen's voice grew louder.
Curtis chuckled. "Well, that settles it then. If you can't handle her yourself, how can you expect Max to handle her?"
Upon hearing this, Max raised his wine glass towards Curtis.
Curtis curled his lips and smiled. "No need to thank me. I can relate to your situation, which is why I understand you. Because I love my wife very much. Besides my wife, I don't want anyone else. If I put myself in your shoes, it would be quite annoying to have someone I don't like confessing to me and sticking to me all the time."
Max was speechless.
Why did every conversation have to revolve around his wife?
Owen was speechless.
Why was he still sitting here and listening to such a showing-off?
Just as the words were spoken, Curtis stood up. "Alright, I'm going back to the old house to accompany my wife. She has prepared a surprise for me tonight."
Max looked at Curtis deeply. "Since Logan is returning to Prodiff, there's a high possibility that he will go back to the old house first. Are you not worried about going back to the old house with your wife at this time?"
"Alas, there's no choice. An ugly daughter-in-law must meet her in-laws. My mother, my brother, and my sister-in-law are all coming back to attend Leon Burton's birthday banquet. Considering the timing, it's about time."
After speaking, Curtis walked towards the door of the private room.
Just as he reached the door, he turned his head and glanced at Nick. "Regarding the question you just asked me, I can actually give Max a suggestion."
Nick's eyes immediately lit up. "What is it?"
"Fire you."
Nick was speechless.
Max nodded. "That's actually not a bad idea."
Nick wore a pained expression and wailed, "Max, if you fire me, there will be no one like me who is loyal and concerned about your lifelong affairs!"
Max thought that was not really necessary.
