Chapter 167 Hubby Stood Up
"I choose Adeline!" Curtis''s voice was resolute, without a hint of hesitation. Hisrge hand firmly
grasped Reba''s lower jaw, almost as if he intended to crush it.
Reba was taken aback, seemingly surprised that Curtis would make a decision so quickly. He
replied without even needing to think!
In the next moment, her lower jaw throbbed in pain, and she stared at Curtis in disbelief. "You...
You''re actually giving up Olivia for that slut? She''s your niece, you know!"
Curtis''s gaze turned icy, and he tightened his grip. "I''ll ask you once more, where''s Adeline? If you
choose not to answer, you might never speak again in this lifetime."
As his words fell, Steffen rushed in while panting heavily.
"Mr. Riley, we''ve got a situation! The General is barking like crazy at room 634..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Curtis had already rushed out like a whirlwind.
Steffen quickly followed.
At first, he had contemted forcibly entering the room, but the fear of witnessing something he
shouldn''t had deterred him. As a result, he had no other choice but to inform Curtis first.
When Curtis arrived at room 634, the General was furiously barking.
Bark! Bark! Bark!

The General kept scratching at the door.
"Step back!"
With amand, the General stepped aside, and Curtis immediately kicked the door open.
It was a perfect team effort between a man and his dog.
With a loud bang, the door swung open, and Curtis stormed inside.
Meanwhile, Adeline was holding a stun gun and pressing it against one of the thugs.
Zzzz...
The thug was jolted by an electric shock, which coursed through his body and sent him copsing to
the side.
Adeline was frightened and quickly ran toward Curtis, hugging him tightly. "Hubby, hubby... I... I think
I might have just killed someone."
Her hands were trembling as she pointed to the four big men lying nearby. She was so scared that
she had forgotten Curtis was standing on his own two feet.
When she had entered this room earlier, she had already felt that something was wrong. When the
back of her head had started to ache, she finally realized she had fallen for a trap.
As soon as she saw the four men in the room, she quickly came up with a n. She pretended to
faint andy on the ground. Then, she secretly took out the stun gun from her keychain.
When one of the thugs tried to move her, she immediately pressed the stun gun against his chest.
The first thug had copsed without even having a chance to scream.
Later, when the two thugs pounced on her together, she was terrified. She wielded the stun gun
Curtis had given her as if it were a knife and swung it wildly. By pure ident, she shocked another
thug.
Then, the third thug lunged at her with harmful intentions. In her panic, she aimed the stun gun at
his groin area.
This time, it was the most gruesome shock.
The thug cried out in agony, begging for mercy, and it seemed like there was even a hint of a burnt
smell.
Curtis coldly eyed the four thugs lying on the ground and snorted, "Well, they deserve it!"
At this point, Adeline''s head was spinning as her nerves had stretched to the limit. When she heard
what Curtis said, it scared her even more.
"What... What do we do now? I''m going to jail..." Her consciousness faded as she finished her
words. "Anyway... it''s... it''s good you''re here."
As her words trailed off, she passed out.
Curtis quickly caught her and carried her back to the private room.
As the door to the room opened, Reba instinctively looked up.
Seeing Adeline unscathed, her clothes not even disheveled, Reba stood up angrily and
eximed, "No way! How can this slut be perfectly fine?"
Curtis gave Reba a stern look and warned, "Reba Morris, my patience has limits. Refrain
from calling her a slut again."
"Slut! She seduced you, so she''s definitely a slut!" Reba showed no fear at all!
Curtis''s expression darkened to an extreme. He turned to Sara and said sternly, "Strip her and take
her to Victoria''s father''s room!"
Upon hearing this, Reba''s eyes widened as she stared at Curtis. "How dare you! Curtis, one of
my uncles is the Director-General of Customs, another is the Chief of Police for West District, and
my father is Tristan Morris! Do you even dare toy a hand on me, huh?"
"Well, it''s true that it might lead to someplications." Curtis admitted candidly, "But I''m not afraid
of a little trouble."
With those words, Sara took Reba away.
Reba struggled and screamed all the way.
"Curtis Riley, you''re insane!"
"Curtis Riley, I hate you!"
"Curtis Riley, I''m going to kill you!"
...
Reba''s voice, perhaps too piercing, prompted Adeline to regain consciousness. Adeline touched
her throbbing head as she woke up, and found herself in Curtis''s arms.
"Hmm? How did I end up here?"
Adeline looked at Curtis, who was sitting in a wheelchair and holding her. "Hey hubby, I remember
you just stood up, didn''t you?"
