My billionaire husband spoils me too much -
Chapter 309
“Don’t worry.No police will arrest you.”The damned man actually scared the innocent little girl like this.It was estimated that the brother and sister had been in a state of anxiety all night yesterdaybecause of the large bundle of money.“Just give the money to your parents.”“I don't have parents.”Perhaps it was because the girl in front of her said it too naturally, or perhaps it was because shesaid it in such an innocent and childish voice.What she said really made Christina feel heartbreaking.Christina was surprised for a second and did not know how to answer.She really didn't know how tocomfort people.The girl seemed to be used to not having her parents.She was not very depressed, but a little happy to tell her, “My brother and I live in a welfarehome.We live together with many children.”Christina looked at her dressJust like last night, she was wearing an old red cotton-padded jacket with a pair of large tasseledshort boots, and there was a touch of dust on her fair and tender face.But at this moment, she smiled innocently and brightly.Last night, when Christina saw the child's dress, she knew that the girl was from a poor family, butChristina didn't expect that she and her brother were orphans.The girl continued, “Last night, my brother gave the money to Nun Zara in the welfare home forsafekeeping.Nun Zara is an adult. We need to follow her words”"Did those nuns ask you to sell flowers?”Christina asked her because she thought of the darkness of society, and then she asked, “Did thosenuns bully you?”When the child heard this, she quickly shook her head and said, “Nun Zara is a good person.Wehave food to eat and can go to school.My brother said that we have become big children and weshould take care of other children in the welfare home.My brother took me here to sell roses.So wecould earn some money to ask the nun to buy textbooks and rice for us.”Christina looked at the seven-year-old girl in a daze and listened to her talk seriously about life inthe orphanage and her selling flowers to make money.She felt that the girl's smiling face was reallysatished.Like an instinctive reaction, Christina reached out and wiped the dust off the girl's face.Such a beautiful little life deserved better care.Christina bought a basket of roses from her.In the end, the girl insisted on charging Christina for only 200 and ran away.She hopped and happily ran to replace her brother.Christina held a basket of roses and took a taxi back to her No.402 Apartment.Perhaps beautiful things could make people feel a little happy.Christina looked at the dozen roses in the small bamboo basket in her hand, and her previousdepression also dissipated a little.She turned on the TV casually.The sound from the TV made the cold room less empty and lonely.At first, Christina didn’t care what was playing on the TV.She was fiddling with the basket of roses.A piece of news came to her ear.When she heard the words IP&G, she looked up and took another look at the screen.“The spokesperson of IP&G group promised that this year, the group's charity fund wouldvigorously support orphanages with more investment, especially in the areas of education andmedical treatment.”Christina watched the news on TV and frowned.Suddenly, IP&G Group increased its investment in the children’s fund.She subconsciously raised herhead to look at Apartment 502 above her ceiling.She rarely paid attention to the affairs in IP&GGroup.Perhaps the group had invested in funding for children a long time ago, and she had probablythought too much.Christina put the basket of roses in the middle of the tea table in the living room.The roses were fragrant and the stunning red petals were in full bloom.As for the withered rose by the tea table, the pale pink rose bud on its stem was exactly the same asthe one on the roses in the basket.Christina looked at the roses and was lost in thought.Her stomach growled, and she realized that she hadn't eaten anything since this morning.She picked up her phone and wanted to order takeout, but when she tried to decide what to order,she didn't know which one to choose with the dazzling so-called Christmas dinners on the APP.No matter how expensive the takeout was, after you ate it many times, you would lose interest in it.After thinking for a while, she threw her phone on the sofa and turned to the kitchen.She went to wash some rice and cooked porridge in the automatic electric pressure cooker.The pressure cooker was very easy to use.Even if she was not good at cooking at all, she also knew how to use it.Other people had a big meal at Christmas, and she had mere porridge.It was a little sad.But the porridge was so warm that she could finish it even if it was tasteless.Others said that she was picky about food, and Christina felt that she was not that difficult to feed,but they did it in the wrong way.She remembered that Derek had personally cooked her scallop porridge the last time.She didn't know if it was telepathy because when she scooped the porridge with the spoon andthought of him, the cell phone on the sofa rang with a “ding”Derek happened to send her a blessing message with WhatsApp.The words in the message were very simple, “Merry Christmas, baby.”Christina was in a daze for a long time.She was a little surprised, but she began to think about itdeeply.After about three minutes, she put down the spoon with complicated emotions.She tried to put on a calm expression and sent Derek an invitation for video chat on WhatsApp.Christina waited anxiously for him to accept it, but the invitation for a video chat was rejected byhim.She pursed her lips, feeling a little unreconciled and angry.She was about to press the videochat invitation button until he accepted it.On the other end of the phone, Derek seemed to know her very well and he called her directly.“Baby.”Derek still called her in that way, but today his clear voice was a little hoarseChristina was in a complicated mood.She did not listen carefully to his strange voice.She gritted herteeth and endured some of her anger.Suddenly, she asked him, “Do you want to give me a Christmas present?”The man on the other end of the phone was silent for a while.It seemed that Derek hadn't expected that she would suddenly ask for a gift from him.She could ask for gifts from others in such a natural manner.This was his Christina's character.“What do you want?”He asked casually with a light tone and a soft voice, unlike those passionate promises, but Christinaknew that no matter what gift she asked, Derek would try his best to give it to her.He was such a calm and resolute person, a man who was unworldly and extremely intelligent.Christina held the phone tightly, and her voice was a little flustered and eager, “Eric, you knowexactly what I want.”She waited for him to answer her.“Achoo -*The man on the other end of the phone ruined the atmosphere.It seemed that he really could not help but sneeze.Then Derek said in a hoarse voice, “I'm sorry”Christina didn't know what he meant by “sorry.”She wanted to press him further for an answer.But the man on the other end of the phone seemed to have caught a bad cold and sneezed againand again.Derek was not pretending to have a cold, because he never pretended.He was really sick.“Do you have a fever?”“Il have a low fever.”“Take an electronic thermometer to take your temperature. What's your temperature now?”After a while, she heard some sounds as if he was looking for something, and the person on theother end of the phone answered honestly, “38.4 degrees celsius.”When Christina heard this, she was a little anxious and said, “How did you have a fever? Have youforgotten that you had a high fever of more than 40 degrees celsius when you were a child? Go eatsomething immediately, and then take the antipyretic. After you take the medicine, go back to yourbedroom to lie down and rest.”"Okay"Derek's reaction was a little slow, but his voice sounded especially obedient.
