My billionaire husband spoils me too much
Chapter 435

It was Brianna's first day at work, so the servants in Hopkins family set a schedule for her. Shearrived at the company five minutes early. Everything went well.

However, Christina had called in sick and did not come to the company today.

"Is she sick?"

"I don't know. She just called in sick since she didn't feel well today. Maybe she went on a businesstrip before and stayed up late, so she broke down and got a cold.”

After the business trip with colleagues, Penny and Rachel became Christina's friends. They wereconcerned for Christina when they heard that she was off sick.

Crystal, Christina's best friend, let out a sigh.

Crystal knew her physical fitness very well. It was impossible for Christina to fall ill because of that,so she probably skipped work.

"She pretended to be sick?" Crystal was muttering to herself, "What is Christina doing at home..."Crystal's colleagues got along well and chatted happily. The company only had a staff of abouttwenty. Everyone was busy working while gossiping about the stars.

On the other side of the office, it was very quiet.

Bill, the manager, personally welcomed the new employee, Brianna.

Although Bill briefly said Brianna was an intern, everyone could tell from his flattering actions thatnepotism was the reason why she could work here.

The experienced employees were sophisticated in the workplace. They knew they'd better have aneutral attitude towards Brianna at first. Only when they got familiar with her character andbackground, could they know what they should do.

Therefore, Brianna sat in her office, and no one talked to her all morning.

It was almost lunchtime when Bill suddenly walked towards her.

He asked in a low voice. "Brianna, do you know if Christina is seriously ill? Did she see a doctor? Didanyone accompany her to the hospital..."

It seemed that he was concerned for Christina.

Although he didn't know Christina's background, he saw Charles sitting directly in Christina's officechair as soon as he arrived at the company yesterday. Therefore, Charles must have a closerelationship with her.

Moreover, Christina and LUCY, the female representative of IP&G Group, seemed to be very familiarwith each other. When Christina and Miss Hopkins left, Charles accompanied them. Therefore, Billwas eager to seize the opportunity to care about his subordinates in his own interests.

"My sister-in-law is not sick," Brianna said in a very low voice.

Brianna stared timidly at the documents on the table. She seemed nervous when talking with astranger and did not look up at him.

Bill was stunned.

First of all, he never thought that Christina would lie.

Secondly, Miss Hopkins actually called Christina "Sister-in-law.” What was their relationship?Crystal also called Christina several times during lunch and sent messages on WhatsApp, butChristina didn't reply, which made her a little anxious.

"Hello, I'm Christina's friend. My name is Crystal Zhu..."

Crystal was nervous during lunch, so she used her trump card after thinking for a long time.

She decided to call the Hopkins family directly.

The landline number was an extension in the Eastern Garden of the Hopkins family. Nanny Faanganswered with a kind and respectful attitude. "Hello, Mrs. Stephenson.”

Christina had few friends. Everyone in the Hopkins remembered Christina's relatives and friends.Moreover, Crystal was Chandler's wife now, so Nanny Faang called her Mrs. Stephenson respectfully.Crystal was unaccustomed to it. Common people like her wanted to flinch from the etiquette of theHopkins family.

She smiled awkwardly and got to the point. "May I ask if Christina is at home now?"

"Junior Mrs. Hopkins left at 7 o'clock in the morning. She drove by herself..." Nanny Faang told hertruthfully.

Hearing this, Crystal grasped her phone and became more worried.

Christina suddenly skipped work and even lied to people of the Hopkins family.

"Didn't Junior Mrs. Hopkins go to the company today?" Nanny Faang asked out of prudence.Crystal felt extremely guilty.

Now she really didn't know how to answer. She would betray Christina if she said Christina was notin the company. But what if there was an emergence?

Crystal hesitated nervously. Nanny Faang was sophisticated, so she knew she was right.

Nanny Faang had worked in the Hopkins family for most of her life, and she was diplomatic.Therefore, she said politely that she had something to do and hung up the phone before Crystalanswered.

Crystal stared at the phone that had been hung up and thought that she made trouble for Christina.Nanny Faang would definitely report to the people of the Hopkins family...

"Christina is on her own. Oh, where did she go for no reason?" Crystal was anxious.

Christina was in the prison of C City.

It didn't occur to Connie that Christina would visit her in prison.

Christina thought for a long time at home. She felt that Connie was the most likely person to regardher as an enemy.

Because Connie had caused a disturbance in the Dickens family, which caused Donald to have astroke and be sent to the emergency room. Moreover, she had abetted people to kidnap Christina.On the surface, Connie, a public figure who used to be an actor, seemed to be banned, but in fact,she was put into prison by Patrick.

Connie did not appeal. She seemed to calm down after the last farce. She confessed to the crime ofkidnapping and served prison sentences. People of the Dickens family did not even know that shewas in prison.

"Connie, I have something to ask you..." Christina spoke bluntly.

"I'm not interested in Junior Mrs. Hopkins. You can leave now. I don't want to see you." Connielooked proud. Even though she was imprisoned, she still tried to maintain her dignity.

Christina was only three years younger than her, but she married Donald and became Christina'sstepmother.

But now, she wore prison clothes in prison, while Christina was still bright and beautiful

How ironic.

"You think my father came to see you, don't you?" Christina suddenly asked.

Connie could no longer keep calm since her dignity was trampled. She shouted at Christina angrily,"I don't want to see anyone from the Dickens family!" Although it wasn't her real thought, she saidthrough gritted teeth.

Christina was right. The jailer told her that a person came to visit her and the person's surname wasDickens.

The first name that came to Connie's mind was Donald.

At this moment, Christina revealed what she was thinking. It's pathetic that she had that thought.Christina noticed that Connie, her stepmother, had changed.

"Christina, what's wrong with your expression? I don't need your sympathy!" Connie was stared atby her and had mixed feelings.

"Don't expect me to say anything nice. I hate your selfish mother, and I hate you, a bastard. You arenot Donald's own daughter, but they treat you as the daughter of the Dickens family.”

To put it simply, Connie had a hard time being looked down upon when she was young. She lovedDonald, the handsome, considerate, and frustrated man, but no one believed her. What's more,Donald missed his ex-wife Mary. Therefore, she hated him.

"You're so stupid that you want to ask me something. Christina, no matter what you want to ask, Iwon't answer you. Even if I say it, I will lie to you!" She said angrily as if she wanted to provokeChristina deliberately.

Connie hated her.

However, Christina just disliked rather than hated her.

"The bad guys are not thoroughly bad. They have different positions.” Christina's voice was flat."Connie, you're wrongheaded to attempt to own something that doesn't belong to you. Youbecame obsessive about it..."

Connie loved Donald but he didn't love her, so her love begot hate.

"Ha! Ha! Ha..."

Connie laughed loudly and insanely and shed tears so that her eyes were bright with tears. "I'mobsessive about it? Obsessive?"

"Christina, tell me. What am I obsessive about?

"Patrick lied to you that he lost his memory to induce me to show up, then he secretly sentsomeone to give you a Caesarean and took the baby. The geezer of the Hopkins family kept somany secrets for his son, Victor. The silly boy from the Fisher family has been following you since hewas a child. Aren't they obsessive about something?"
