Chapter 89 Mr. Riley is Afraid of His Wife
Curtis couldn''t help but grin as he watched as his friends were defeated.
"I feel obligated to add a few more words about why you shouldn''t get married."
"Why?" Owen asked directly before Max had a chance to say anything.
Max furrowed his brow, realizing it was toote to stop Owen.
Curtis put on a helpless expression.
"The only advantages of marriage are having someone to serve you a warm bowl of soup when you
come home, to cuddle with a soft and fragrant body at night, to have apanion for watching
movies when you''re bored, to hold hands and go on dates during holidays, and to avoid the
pressure and mockery of being single."
Owen thought to himself, "I''m so jealous! Are those the only benefits? You''ve listed quite a few!"
"But dealing with women is also troublesome. You have to be cautious in every aspect and avoid
saying anything hurtful. If you identally make a mistake, you must ease the situation yourself.
But if you spoil her too much, she might take advantage of you and be arrogant."
Curtis'' mouth curved into a grin as the memory of Adeline kicking him came to mind.
"She looks so adorable when she kicks me! I''ve discovered a new lovable side to her!" he thought.
Owen felt speechless after hearing about Curtis and his wife''s affectionate dynamics.
Unable to tolerate Curtis'' smug expression, Max asked directly, "Curtis, dare you say these things in
front of your wife?"
Curtis froze in ce.
With astonishment on his face, Owen eximed, "No way! Are you serious, Curtis? Are you afraid
of your wife?"
"I wouldn''t say I''m afraid, but rather that I deeply respect her," Curtis responded, although there was
a slight awkwardness in his tone.
Owen trembled as he questioned whether the world was real.
He couldn''t believe that Mr. Riley from Prodiff, who used to be unstoppable and notorious for his
cruelty, had transformed into someone like this after getting married.
Owen patted Max on the shoulder and said with mixed feelings, "You better not get married, Max. I
can''t take it if you end up being like him.
Maxim disdained the idea and said, "Don''t worry, that won''t happen."
Curtis looked at him with a questioning brow raised and asked, "Are you sure?"
"Yes, without a doubt."
Curtis said with a grin, "Well, I''ll wait and see! I understand what you''re thinking, though. Who
knows how long it will be before you find a partner with how you''ve acted? Just keep talking big for
the time being."
Max took a sip of tea and retorted, "You can keepughing for now. But let me remind you that it''s
only two months until Christmas. Even if you continue to obstruct him, Logan will most likely return
home for the holidays. Will you be able tough then?"
Curtis'' expression darkened suddenly.
"Oh, let me remind you. Olivia Riley ising back. Once she returns, how long do you think it will
take for Logan to find out that you married his ex-fiancée?"
Curtis frowned, "How do you know Olivia''s whereabouts?"
"I have my sources keeping an eye on her," Max replied without any intention of concealing it.
Hearing this made Curtis''s expression even more gloomy.
Owen nced between Curtis and Max, choosing to remain silent as he stuffed a few more
mouthfuls of food into his mouth.
He intentionally ate so much during this meal to sustain himself until lunchtime, hoping to avoid any
further involvement in the dispute between the two powerful individuals.

arm.
