My billionaire husband spoils me too much -
Chapter 130
"What's wrong?"
Patrick gazed down at the woman in front of him. She was obviously unhappy.
Christina glanced at him and lowered her head in silence.
"By the way, didn't Chandler say he was coming over? I haven't seen him in years..." Barbarasuddenly asked with a stiff smile on her face.
Charles answered, "You surly haven't seen Chandler for long. His son is already five now."
"His child must be very gentle and handsome.”
Hearing that, Patrick said calmly, "Chandler will come with that child today..."
Though Patrick was indifferent, he liked that smart kid.
Charles also liked that kid and smiled merrily. "Barbara, when you see that little boy whose name isGeoffrey, you will definitely like him. He looks as innocent as Chandler, but in fact, very cunning andscheming.”
As they were talking about the past, Christina sat quietly by their side. She did not say anything, asshe couldn't really have an opinion on it.
"Perhaps that woman would come as well. Forget it. It's a rare chance for us to get together. Thatkind of people will just spoil the fun.” Charles spoke directly, a bit irritated.
"After all, she's Chandler's wife, and Geoffrey's mother. Charles, don't look so bothered.”
Barbara exhorted her, raising the glass in her hand and clinking it joyfully with him.
Christina couldn't understand what they were talking about, but Chandler's wife didn't seem to bevery welcomed by Charles's words
"Wanna go home?" The man beside her said in a low voice.
She was stunned and a little dull
She looked at Patrick holding her right wrapped hand. He rubbed her wound with slight pressure,but it was more like a stroke.
Although she didn't understand their conversation and their past, at least he didn't leave her alone."No, I was thinking that you do have a lot of friends.” Suddenly, her tone was a little awkward.
She really didn't understand Patrick's life, let alone his circle.
This so-called orientation aimed to expand Barbara's domestic connections. There were severalsenior executives who had appeared on television and some rich businessmen. These people weremostly here for Patrick's sake.
When Patrick heard her words, he smiled. "Why, do you think I have no friend..."
Then he added, "I asked them to bring their wives and children over today. If you feel bored, youcan chat with those women."
Perhaps it was because his eyes were focused and indulgent, her cheeks were a little red as shemurmured, "I'm not familiar with them."
"If you like, they will try to familiarize themselves with you instead.” Patrick's tone was firm anddisdainful.
Everything you wanted would come true.
"Oh."
Christina was a little confused, and she answered absent-mindedly.
Patrick seemed to like to see her freeze up when she went blank.
He was in a good mood. He put his hand around her waist, pulled her body to his chest and leanedhis head against her shoulder.
Christina was so tightly held by him that she was a little embarrassed. There were so many peoplewatching them.
But Patrick behind her did not seem to mind it at all. His head rested on her shoulder and he rubbedhis thin lips against her earlobe occasionally.
All of a sudden, Christina's ears turned red.
At this moment, two men on the left came over with wine glasses in their hands. They glanced ateach other in surprise. All the business people were extremely sophisticated and did not dare todisturb them.
With a smile on his face, he clinked glasses with Charles and others. "Why didn't I see anyone fromthe Fishers today..."
"You the Hopkinses, the Shepherds, and the Fishers from F City have always been in good relationswith one another, but seemingly you have seldom been together in the past few years. I heard thatnext month is Mrs. Fisher's 50th birthday. Charles, will you come?"
"That old witch!"
Charles and Barbara were greeting each other, while Christina faintly heard them mentioning "Mrs.Fisher". She felt angry.
"Did she offend you?" Patrick rarely saw his wife so indignant and hateful.
Christina grimaced and thought of something terrible. She wanted to say something, but suddenlyPatrick's phone rang.
After he answered the phone, his face became a little solemn.
"Chandler has something urgent to deal with. He's not coming." After a while, Patrick hung up hisphone and said calmly.
"What's wrong?"
Charles raised his eyebrows slightly. They knew that Chandler was very punctual. He rarely broke hispromise. "Did something happen to him?"
Patrick's face darkened, but he didn't say much.
"Don't tell me, it's that woman again. I really don't understand why Chandler has been holding herback..." Charles seemed to have guessed something and his voice was a little angry.
Christina didn't know what he was angry about, but she felt a little guilty when she heard him saythat.
She herself had a tantrum with Patrick a few days ago.
"You are different from her.” He whispered with a low voice in her ear.
Christina was curious about what unbearable things Chandler's wife had done.
"I'll have a good chat with Erica when I have time." Barbara said in a low voice with a thoughtful lookin her eyes.
Charles snorted angrily. "Barbara, remember to tell the woman to cherish what she has. If she reallydares to go out and cheat on Chandler, though he wants to bear her for their son, we won't stand itanymore."
Charles hated Chandler for marrying that woman back home. When they got married, she liked tocompare herself to other women in her friend circle. Chandler bought jewelry and houses for herand finally she hated the Stephenson Family for being less powerful than Hopkins Family.
Over the past few years, She complained that Chandler has been too busy with work to accompanyher or not pay attention to her, and she had affairs with some deceptive handsome boys outside.Chandler was indeed a gentle man, but he had his own bottom line...
"Go back."
Patrick's face darkened when he heard these trivial things. He hugged the woman beside him andstood up.
Christina had no problem. She politely said goodbye to Charles and Barbara and left side by sidewith him
When she entered the elevator, Christina suddenly remembered that Crystal had said that shewould come to the Fire Club. But as she was leaving now, Crystal had not shown up.
"Where are you? I'm going home." She took her phone from her bag and quickly called Crystal.
To Christina's surprise, there seemed to be something wrong with Crystal's side. She was a littleanxious. "I was downstairs at the Fire Club... A man suddenly shoved a five-year-old boy to me andasked me to take care of him. The parents of the child were quarreling...”
"Hold on, what's going on?"
Christina frowned and she was hung up.
They had already exited the elevator and reached the underground parking lot. Patrick turned tolook at her. "What's wrong?"
"Maybe my friend's phone is out of charge.”
Christina guessed that although she didn't quite understand what Crystal was saying, she would befine.
"Patrick, something's wrong."
Another elevator door opened and Barbara ran out anxiously. "Erica just called me in tears and saidChandler was going to kill her..."
When Patrick heard her say this, he immediately thought of Chandler's angry voice on the phoneand frowned.
"I'm coming over now..."
Patrick took the car keys and quickly opened the door.
He almost subconsciously turned to look at Christina, but she stood still with a frozen expression.Barbara already sat in the passenger seat and said with an urgent voice, "Patrick, hurry up. Chandleronly listens to you. Let's go and have a look.”
Christina just looked at them. For a moment, she really didn't know if she should go with them, andif yes, where should she sit.
To see someone else sitting in the passenger seat of her husband's car was really awkward...
Did she do it intentionally or unintentionally?
