Slumdog Billionaire Husband By Rayden Berg Chapter 161
Chapter 161 The Competition
A sickbed showed itself from the ICU of Sacramento General Hospital, on which was Henley.
Corbin was apanying Henley, who looked grieved and desperate.
Beside Corbin was Henley’s mother. She was a middle-aged woman whose eyes had been red and
swollen for
cry.
They followed Henley’s sickbed until it reached the ward.
After days of treatment, Henley finally came out of the ICU and could be transferred to an ordinary
ward.
After a while, when they were settled down, Henley opened his eyes and saw Corbin and the middle-
aged
woman. He looked at them and asked weakly, “Mom, Dad… What happened?”
Corbin sighed and then answered, “Henley, our family is finished!”
“What?” Henley, who had just recovered from the fatal injury, felt like being hit again.
“The other party is not willing to support us anymore. We lose the source of capital, and the banks keep
urging us to pay the debts, and so do many shareholders,” said Corbin with a tired expression, “We
may go
bankrupt within a month under such a situation.”
“How is it possible? How is it possible?” Henley felt his brain was going to explode.
Henley was the top among those from wealthy families. However, by that moment, he was just awake
from a
great injury and was told his family was going to be bankrupt.
He had just woken up from the great injury and didn’t make the time to check about his car ident,
not to
say revenge on the one who caused the car ident.
Bankruptcy meant that he would be a poor man, and the people he had offended would take
revenge on
him crazily.
And he would never get Doreen.
Henley was going to break under the burden of all those thoughts.
“Dad, you must be kidding me!” said Henley, who quickly shook his head.
“I managed to convert some assets into cash. You and your mother should go abroad in the next two
days, although your injury has not fully recovered yet…” Corbin said, and his face was covered by
endless
exhaustion.
Henleyy on the bed, and his mind was in a mess!
At the same time, a very remote greasy restaurant in Sacramento enjoyed a different atmosphere. It
was noisy and lively with many guests there.
A middle-aged man with gloves and a windbreaker was sitting in the middle of the restaurant. A few
tes of
dishes were ced in front of him, but he didn’t have anything.
There was a deep scar on his face, and he looked threatening.
He held a pocket watch in his hand. After a while, a man and two women walked over and sat down in
front
of him.
“Quite on time!” said the man as he put the pocket watch away, “I thought you have lived in this city for
too long and forgotten who you are!”
There was a hint of nervousness on the faces of the three people and they did not dare to say
anything!
The middle-aged man looked at the three people and said calmly, “I have received news that Ingrid will
leave
Sacramento tomorrow morning. If she returns to Washington, it will be difficult for us to get her. As a
result,
you must make a move tonight.”
“But… the Maddox family brings many men who are very good at martial arts with them. And there are
many
Watchmen in Sacramento,” said the man, frowning.
“It’s your business,” said the middle-aged man indifferently, “In addition, Watchman No. 0, who is no
longer a
Watchman, is also in Sacramento. I met himst night.”
“Did you fight with him?” asked a woman.
“No!” said the middle-aged man embarrassedly, “He went to kill Sean Dempsey yesterday. When I
heard Sean
Dempsey, I couldn’t help but run away!”
Three people were speechless.
“Then did you see what he looked like?” Another person asked.
“I didn’t dare to look!” said the middle-aged man as he let out a breath, “You must make sure you are
safe
before you make the move. But I don’t think he would do anything. The former Watchman No. 2 was
injured
by me. He should be taking care of her!”
“What about you?” asked the man.
“I will leave first for something. If you get Ingrid, take her to Washington overnight. I will give you the
address
Kidnapping Ingrid should have been his task, but… after he knew about Gerald, the middle-aged man
decided
to run away first.
Gerald did not know what was happening. Because at the same time, he looked at the man in front of
him in shock and said, “The agreed time is seven. I am notte.”
*Then you are thest to arrive,” said a handsome man with a smile, “So manydies have arrived
before you. Don’t you express your apologies? Moreover… Many people are watching my live stream!”
“Riley, don’t make trouble,” said Ingrid, frowning.
Gerald frowned. When he sat down, he saw the phone beside the table held by a selfie stick. He
thought that Ingrid and the others wanted to record theirst meal together. He did not expect that Riley
was making a live
stream.
Gerald guessed Riley was a professional outdoor live streamer with considerable followers. Otherwise,
there wouldn’t be so many peopleing to take photos with him.
Gerald did not like to be exposed in the eyes of too many people. Fortunately, the camera was focusing
on Riley instead of Gerald.
When Riley heard that Ingrid spoke for Gerald, he was even more unhappy. He opened three bottles,
put them
on the table, and said, “Bro, be a man! Drink them! There are so many people watching!”
As Riley said, his expression changed slightly and encouraged, “Well, I will drink with you. How about
it?”
Ingrid hurriedly whispered, “Don’t drink with Riley. Although thin, Riley is a food broadcaster. He’s an
expert on
eating and drinking!”
Gerald raised his eyebrows and thought, an expert on drinking?
“As one of the two men at this table, I promise that I will drink with you. Will you drink or not?” sneered
Riley
as he looked at Gerald.
“Fine,” said Gerald with a smile.
Both Ingrid and Daphne were stunned. Ingrid said in a low voice, “Didn’t you hear what I told you? Riley
is really good at drinking. Moreover, he just wanted to make the show effective. He wanted to see you
make a
fool of yourself after getting drunk…”
Seeing Ingrid whisper to Gerald, Riley’s eyes became even colder. He seemed to be afraid that Gerald
would
eat his words and put the three bottles in front of Gerald!
Looking at Riley’s eyes, Gerald sighed in his heart.
Gerald could tell that Riley was interested in Ingrid, so Riley got unhappy when Ingrid asked him to sit
beside
her. And when Ingrid kept talking with Gerald, Riley became angrier and angrier.
Therefore, Riley wanted to make Gerald drunk and see how Gerald acted.
How stingy. Gerald touched his nose and thought.
“Bro, I will drink up first. Take your time!” speaking, Riley drank a bottle.
Ingrid and Daphne were just about to stop Riley when they saw Gerald also pick up the bottle. They
became
impotent.
Gerald finished his three bottles of beer soon and burped. Both Ingrid and Daphne were surprised.
They had
never seen Gerald drink before and had not expected that Gerald’s alcohol tolerance was not bad.
“Nice, bro!” said Riley with a smile, “I didn’t expect you to be so good at drinking! You and I must enjoy
our
drunk night!”
Gerald smiled and said, “Sure!”
Then, the two of themunched a fight with alcohol as their weapon. Riley kept using all kinds of
reasons to
ask Gerald to drink. They drank all kinds of alcohol, from beer to Depth Bomb!
Gerald never rejected Riley’s request and kept drinking.
When it came to drinking, Gerald was not afraid of anyone.
In the beginning, Ingrid and others were trying to stop them, but atst, they were shocked.
Especially Ingrid and Daphne. They never expected that Gerald could keep drinking even without going
to the

toilet, and Gerald looked as if he was fine.
As Riley and Gerald fought with alcohol, the audience watching the live stream increased dramatically.
Two hourster, Gerald was still sitting there as if he had not kept drinking for about two hours, and
Riley could not speak fluently.
“Boy…” said Riley, holding another bottle, “I didn’t expect I… I… underestimated you. You… are the
expert on drinking. But I will make you… you… drunk anyway. I will let you… see what kind of person
you really are…”
As he drank, Riley’s consciousness and his bnce were all betraying him.
Gerald frowned and said to Riley, “You’d better stop. You’re drunk!”
“Drunk? You can make me drunk?” said Riley as he staggered to his feet, “You brat… must be a poor…
poor
man. Couldn’t believe In… Ingrid… invited you. Are you qualified to… sit with her… together? Ingrid, I
love
you… to be my… girlfriend!”
Gerald almostughed out loud.
Ingrid was embarrassed, and she nced at Gerald with hatred.
At that moment, Riley looked around and said, “Well, I want to go to the toilet. Where is the toilet…”
Then he looked at Ingrid and said, “Ingrid… After I go to the toilet, I will… show my heart to you
officially. Today… I will take you to the hotel!”
“Riley, you are drunk. Go home now. Stop his live stream,” said Ingrid.
Someone went to get Riley’s phone, and the barrage had covered the screen.
Riley waspletely drunk. He looked around and got his target, the window. Their table was near the
window. He walked to the window and said, “I’m going to pee. You guys go away!”
Riley’s movement attracted the attention of all the other guests.
“That’s not the toilet!” shouted Ingrid hurriedly.
However, Riley ignored her. He seemed to be not able to hold his urine anymore and began to pee. As
Riley
peed, he said with enjoyment, “Comfortable!”
