Chapter 9
Christina finds Patton's hotel room. She knocks on the door angrily. Patton opens the door and sees Christina who is angry.
"I'm enjoying the weekend with my wife." Patton says.
"Are you Patton?" Christina asks.
"Why?" Patton asks.
Christina is furious that Patton talked back to her. She is ready to tell him off.
"I'm Amanda's stepmother." Christina replies.
"Oh. Her father married another woman? She sent you here?" Patton asks.
"Don't you ever go near my stepdaughter again!" Christina yells.
Patton is getting rough with Christina. He is angry that he is being told off.
"Or what? You'll send a bodyguard around?" Patton says.
"I will if I have to." Christina says.
Patton's wife comes at the door. She is wondering what the problem is.
"What's going on?" Vivienne asks.
"I think you need to ask him." Christina responds.
"She's mad." Patton says.
Christina isn't too happy with Patton. She wants him to leave her stepdaughter and her husband alone.
"He's been harassing my stepdaughter." Christina says.
"What did you say?" Vivienne asks.
"He approached her a few days ago and he also threatened her. He also threatened my husband." Christina responds.
Patton's wife knows Patton better than Christina. She thinks that her husband is a good man and people just don't like him.
"Ma'am, there must be a mistake." Vivienne says.
"No. I think you're mistaken if you think I'm going to let him make my stepdaughter's life a misery. I'm also not going to let him make my husband's life a misery." Christina says.
Christina is not happy with Patton and his wife. She doesn't want Patton anywhere near her stepdaughter and her husband. She will be calling the police to have Patton arrested.
She hopes that Patton will leave her husband and stepdaughter alone. She knows what he did to her husband's daughter.
"I'm sure there was a misunderstanding." Vivienne says.
"Oh, please. Don't even bother. Just keep that jerk away from my stepdaughter or there's going to be hell to pay." Christina says.
"You think you can threaten my husband?" Vivienne asks.
"He threatened my husband, so yes. And keep him away from my husband too otherwise there's going to be more hell to pay. Now are we clear?" Christina responds.
Vivienne doesn't answer and Christina leaves the hotel that she and Patton are staying. Christina is mad and she hopes that Patton will return to Atlanta and never return to New York. She returns home and she sees Tony on the couch,
"Well, did you talk to him?" Tony asks.
"Yeah and his wife got involved." Christina replies.
"Hopefully he can leave us alone now." Tony says.
"We have to get him sent back to Atlanta." Christina says.
Tony is glad that Christina talked to Patton. He hopes that everything will go back to normal.
