My billionaire husband spoils me too much -
Chapter 140
"Let me help you back to your bedroom, so you can take a rest..."
It was a gentle female voice asking around his ear, Patrick then turned to his side and was about tosay no.
But when he turned his eyes, he got very surprised.
All of a sudden, his eyes met her eyes. Christina was also startled. Feeling panicked, instinctively shewanted to withdraw and escape.
They were in a circle, but she was never one of them.
Old Master Mr. Hopkins and others were not surprised by Christina's appearance, but at thismoment, everyone looked at each other in silence with their own thoughts.
It was now a time when the summer lotus was in full bloom, and the garden was filled withfragrance.
The fragrance of the lotus was soothing, but it could not hide the panic in Christina's eyes.
"Patrick, do you want me to help you or not..."
She hesitated for a long time, then asked in a low voice.
She was somehow nervous and pursed her lips, which seemed she was ready to immediatelypretend she was fine when he refused.
Pretending, the one she was least good at.
Patrick looked at her and did not say anything. Instead, he walked straight towards her, step by step,steadily and firmly.
Barbara and Charles looked at his back and stepped out of habit to follow him, but they thenstopped.
When he approached her, Christina admitted that her heart was beating a little fast.
Perhaps it was because she felt a little surprised at his approach, or perhaps it was because of theintense gazing from Old Master Mr. Hopkins and the others.
Christina looked up directly at his slightly pale face.
"What's wrong with you?" She asked with a choked tone. She still wanted to ask him whether hesaid it or not.
"l have a headache.”
Patrick's voice was hoarse and replied directly.
Without more communication, he naturally grabbed her by her shoulder, and half of his body'sweight was pressed on her. She was snuggling up to him, they then walked at the same pace, whichwas so matching as if it was an illusion. But it was the fact.
"Grandfather, Patrick will handle his own matters..."
Looking at the two figures walking away, Charles turned to the old man and said in a low voice.Holding his crutch with both hands, Old Master Mr. Hopkins silently stared at the corridor with hisbrows furrowed. At this moment, the old housekeeper behind him rushed over with a few doctors,"Where is Young Master Patrick..."
Mixed feelings occurred to Barbara, and she tried to speak calmly, "Patrick went back to hisbedroom for a rest. You guys go..."
"There's no need to go!"
The old, deep voice sounded very angry.
Barbara was surprised and looked at the old man. She pursed her lips and did not dare to sayanything.
Charles and Barbara glanced at each other, smartly said goodbye to the old man, and left side byside.
"Charles, is there something wrong with Patrick's body?"
In the parking lot of Hopkins Family, when Barbara opened the car door, she suddenly became alittle persistent and asked Charles, who was in the opposite parking space.
"Nothing."
Charles was a little upset and sat in his new favorite sports car. He slammed the door hard andobviously didn't want to say anything more.
"Charles, why is grandpa so nervous? Patrick definitely not suffers from a simple migraine,” Barbarasaid. Barbara had a high social position and was shrewd and efficient, gritting her teeth, she thensaid, "Even if you don't say it, I just need to check Seattle..."
"Barbara, don't forget who you are.” Charles suddenly interrupted her.
He looked directly into her eyes, and said in a much cold voice, "Patrick has always rejected women,and the only reason why you can stand by his side so naturally and we also accept it, is because ofDerek. His special treatment to you these years, in particular, is because of his guilt. Barbara, you'dbetter not wish for something that does not belong to you ."
Barbara was upset by this, and she spoke in a hurry, "I've known Patrick for nearly ten years. Noother woman knows him better than I do. I just want to care about him..." The meaning of what shesaid next was unclear.
Charles stopped looking at her and directly started the car.
As he turned around and drove out of the garage, he chuckled and said, "Barbara, you also want tolearn from Christina, who used bugs to eavesdrop on his personal affairs..."
"Patrick will get angry and scold Christina for what she did. But if you do it, he will fire you directly.”Barbara was shocked by this and froze at her place.
She looked angry and resentful and stared at the disappearing car. Charles's teasing words were socasual, but they were all true.
There were certain things that only she could do and you could not.
