Chapter 55 His Children
The banquet had officially started.
Beatrice finally appeared. She carried Charlie in a cute suit and stood beside Christian. Standing at the
front of the crowd, Beatrice smiled widely with a trace of anticipation and pride in her eyes.
After today, Charlie would be the eldest grandson of the Patterson family, and she would have the
greatest chance to marry into the wealthy family.
Even if Anastasia appeared here, it wouldn't affect anything.
Nothing would change.
James walked to the center with a smile.
The banquet hall gradually fell silent.
"Everyone, now I officially announce Charlie has become the eldest grandson of our family. I will give
three percent of the shares of Patterson Group as a gift to my eldest grandson!"
The crowd burst into applause.
But at the lively moment, someone suddenly screamed in shock.
Everyone was stunned and became quiet for an instant.
Lamia walked over with a pale face with her chest heaving. She glared at Beatrice and came to James.
With trembling hands, she pulled James aside, turned her back to the crowd, and handed over the
information.
James looked at it with a frown, and his expression changed instantly. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
He turned his head and stared at the child in Beatrice's arms with a livid face. The kindness in his eyes
had been replaced by anger and gloom.
Beatrice was still immersed in the great joy. The three percent of the shares meant she and her child
didn't have to worry about the money for the rest of their lives.
But the next second, James covered his chest with a paler face. He held the paper tightly and fell to the
ground.
Lamia hurriedly shouted in a panic, "Help. Call the doctor..."
The scene suddenly became chaotic.
Christian was startled and hurried forward to support James. The bodyguards also immediately
stepped forward to help.
Soon, James was surrounded and went to the lounge to see a doctor.
Christian stayed to appease everyone, and everything continued as usual.
He noticed the emotional changes in his parents and was wearing a serious face. He loosened his
collar and followed with a complicated expression.
Beatrice was still in shock.
As the banquet was suspended, she felt a little uneasy and hugged Charlie more tightly.
She turned her head and found Christian was gone, but she saw Anastasia, who was looking at her not
far away.
Anastasia looked at Beatrice meaningfully and smiled, raising her brows. She raised the wine glass in
her hand at Beatrice with smiling eyes.
At that moment, Beatrice's heart skipped a beat, and she was a little flustered.
She gave Anastasia a glare and then ran towards James's lounge.
But as soon as she entered the door, she was pulled by someone and almost threw Charlie to the
ground.
Before she could stand still, she was slapped hard on the face.
"Bang!!!"
