My billionaire husband spoils me too much -
Chapter 440
An illusory and ethereal man's voice echoed in the room..
It was cold and gloomy, lingering on her ears.
Christina was so frightened that she grabbed Patrick tightly. She stared at the Ancient Coin on thefloor with a pale look and shouted hurriedly, "It, it's talking..."
Patrick just frowned without feeling anything strange.
And the cold and hollow voice came again, "If you dare to throw me into that dirty pool again, I willnever let you go!"
Christina stiffened.
"What's wrong?" Patrick looked at her.
Christina's brain had stopped working, "It, it's really talking..." Even she did not know whether thesound she heard was her illusion or not.
Seeing her solemn face, Patrich turned to look at the Ancient Coin on the floor. He wanted to pick itup to take a closer look, so he let go of Christina's hands and strode towards it.
"Don't go over!"
Christina held him tighter subconsciously to keep him away from the coin. It was too odd.
The voice was sarcastic, "It's useless. He doesn't believe you."
Christina tightened her grip on Patrick and insisted, "It's really talking. I'm not lying..." She raised herhead, looked at Patrick with suspicion in her heart, and asked.
"Patrick, can't you hear it..."
His heart melted when he saw her in such a panic, then he reached out to hold her tightly, coveringher face with his chest, and gently stroked her long hair, "Don't be afraid.”
"I, I'm not..." She was hugged by Patrick tightly but depressed inward. He didn’t believe her at all.Patrick actually called some neurologists and psychologists over, and they diagnosed that she gotauditory hallucinations.
The doctors gave her some medicine with sedative effect, and the female psychologist insisted ontalking to her for an hour. None of them believed her words.
People who were too anxious or stressed were likely to have illusions.
"Is it just an illusion?"
Although Christina had experienced such an incredible thing herself, she couldn't help but wonder ifshe was really just hallucinating.
She asked for another week's leave from the company. Patrick didn't allow her to go out, as if shewas seriously ill.
She followed the doctor's words to take medicine and had to receive therapy from the psychologistevery day. The maids also watched her closely to ensure that she slept on time every day and strictlycontrolled her diet.
When the doctors asked her if she was still hallucinating, Christina was silent. Patrick put away theAncient Coin. She did not know where it was, so she did not hear the voice again.
"I heard she's been neurotic and hallucinating recently... Is there something wrong with her brain?"At five o'clock in the afternoon, the afterglow was casting light golden haze. The breeze wasblowing the back garden of the Hopkins family. It was the best time for taking a walk.
Ms. Hopkins came back to stay for a while. She and Judy were taking a walk along the path, chattingwith each other.
The rules of the Hopkins family were strict, but many neurologists and psychologists appeared inthe house last week, the servants couldn't help but secretly guess what was going on.
Patrick didn't scruple to take care of Christina and tolerate her temper. He also asked Nanny Fang tomodify her daily diet. Even Senior Mr. Hopkins had asked the doctor about her situation personally,urging the doctor to give her the best treatment.
Everyone in the house was very surprised. They held the bowl with great care when they servedChristina.
They were just doubting that she was such an optimistic person and she didn’t seem like someonewho would be depressed. Yet, they did not dare to say anything.
At this moment, the person who dared to mock openly with the words of "Something's wrong withher brain,” only could be hot-tempered Ms. Hopkins.
Ms. Hopkins, the third daughter of the Hopkins family, was the one who looked like Old Madam,who had passed away, the most. So Senior Mr. Hopkins has somewhat revealed a preference for thisdaughter.
Judy's said coldly, "What healthy girl can Mary's daughter be? It's probably a genetic disease..."
It also made Ms. Hopkins recall what happened before, "Mary, she was very popular among menback then. At that time, my brother was fascinated by her. He even contradicted my father for her.But he thought he couldn't give her happiness because of his poor health. Otherwise, maybe shewould be Mrs. Hopkins..."
Hearing this, Judy's face darkened.
Only a few people knew about the inside story, including the daughters of the Hopkins family. IfVictor had been healthy, he would divorce Judy and married Mary.
In fact, Judy did not get along well with the daughters of the Hopkins family. Most of therelationships in the rich family were fake, especially associated with these daughters of the Hopkinsfamily, who always look down on others.
Ms. Hopkins turned to look at Judy and pretended to comfort her, "Judy, don't blame me for beingtoo straightforward. My father and my husband love me too much, I didn’t learn how to be tactful.”Her tone wasn't apologetic at all but full of arrogance.
Judy had tasted her arrogance before, and she put on a fake smile too, "I know.”
"Anyway, Mary is really scheming. You almost lost to her back then, and now... Her daughter hascome to our family again...”
The daughters of the Hopkins family treated these things as a joke.
It was out of their capabilities to control their arrogant nephew's marriage, so they could only scoldthe shameless mother and daughter.
At this moment, they did not know that Christina was squatting in the bush and listening to themclearly.
For the past week, she had been trapped in the house. Apart from taking medicine and sleeping,she was also monitored by servants when she went to the bathroom. She had to chat with thedoctor on time every day, which made her crazy. She finally sneaked into the backyard to breathesome fresh air, but she met them.
Christina wanted to pretend that she didn't hear it, but they went too far, especially Ms. Hopkins."Please don't comment on others.” She couldn't help but suddenly stand up from the bush
Judy and Ms. Hopkins were shocked
When they saw it was Christina, they got angry immediately, "Why are you hiding here?"
Ms. Hopkins's voice was shrill and unpleasant, "What an ill-bred girl! You actually eavesdropped onothers."
Judy was even angrier when she thought of Christina had been carefully served by people in theHopkins family recently.
"Did you inherit your mother's mental illness and do things so stealthily?”
Damn it, these women said she was mentally ill.
"It's not your business to worry about my mental health.” Christina was so angry.
Judy glared at Christina angrily, but ever since Christina came over, the whole family had treated herwell. And Judy was always in a cold relationship with her son. Even she wanted to give her daughter-in-law a lesson, she couldn't do anything.
It was infuriating.
Judy was angry but didn't say anything. Ms. Hopkins, who was standing beside her, felt strange andtook a step forward to Christina.
She said, "How dare you talk to your elders like this?"
Christina looked at the arrogant Ms. Hopkins and turned her head with an expression oreplaceifference.
Ms. Hopkins was even angrier when she saw the young lady ignore her.
"You are the daughter of the Dickens family, which was the richest family in C City before, right?"Ms. Hopkins sneered
"Your father, Donald, who was lucky to marry Mary, a dirty woman, and became the richest man in CCity for a few years. But you really think you're the princess? Your father is just an incompetent poorboy who relies on the Eisenhower family. After the Eisenhower family declined, the Dickens familywas just in the limelight for a few years, which has long been out of the league now."
Ms. Hopkins purposely turned to look at Judy and tutted, "I really don't know why Patrick stuck withher..."
Christina hated people who belittled her family. She did not show any weakness to Ms. Hopkins andshouted at her.
"Whether my family is poor or rich, it has nothing to do with you!"
There were many rules in rich families, the most important one was to respect elders. Everyoneabided by it, but Christina had been married to Patrick for so long and no one had asked her toabide by these stupid rules. She was not afraid of offending Ms. Hopkins.
Seeing that Christina dared to shout at her, Ms. Hopkins was furious, "How dare you shout at me?"Ms. Hopkins had two sons, and her two daughters-in-law were quite respectful to her. If she wasunsatisfied with them, she would ask someone to slap them and teach them a lesson. This ignorantlittle bitch dared to be so unruly. She deserved to be slapped.
She turned around and shouted angrily at the maids, "Come here, grab her, and kneel her down!""Slapping her hard until I asked you to stop. How dare this little bitch offends me. Are you all deaf?Go grab her and slap her."
How dare these servants in the Hopkins family slap the young madam. A maid standing behindhurriedly went to look for the butler.
Seeing that the servants did not listen to her, Ms. Hopkins was so angry that she turned around andcaught a maid. She raised her hand and slapped the maid, "Who is the owner of the Hopkins family?Who paid you? How dared you to stand on her side?" Then she kicked the maid with the high heelson her feet.
"Don't go too far!"
Christina was so angry, dragging the maid who had fallen to the ground behind to protect her.
This maid was assigned to serve her in the Eastern Garden. The maid had been watching her takemedicine and sleeping on time recently. No matter how cruel Christina was, she would not allowothers to bully her maid like this.
[ Ms. Hopkins is a married daughter. She is just a guest coming to stay at the master's house for thetime being. Don't forget her identity. ] The illusory and ethereal voice came into her ears again.Christina was probably too angry. Following the voice in her ear, she also shouted angrily at Ms.Hopkins, "You are a married daughter. A guest coming to stay at the master's house for the timebeing. Don't forget your identity. It's not your turn to discipline the servants in the Hopkins family..."Ms. Hopkins didn't expect Christina to retort like this. She roared angrily, "You, you shamelesswoman. Who do you think you are? I'm the daughter of the Hopkins family..."
Since Ms. Hopkins got married, she had less contact with her family. But her identity as the daughterof the Hopkins family was her greatest confidence.
Christina was not good at arguing, but now that voice was teaching her.
[ Ms. Hopkins went home to accompany Senior Mr. Hopkins to ask for money. Her husband lost 500million dollars in investment a year ago. At that time, she cried and asked the Hopkins family forhelp. This time, her eldest son was caught in making fatal road accident last month. Her secondson's mistress was pregnant and playing suicide. All of this required money to make exceptions... ]"... You feel that as long as you could get money out of the Hopkins family, your son and husbandwould be obedient to you. You only think that the Hopkins family was an ATM. You are not a gooddaughter, neither a good wife and nor a good mother. You are selfish and only care about yourself."Christina scolded what she had heard in one breath
Ms. Hopkins was shocked. She didn't know how Christina knew so much about her family, but shegritted her teeth in anger.
At this moment, the butler rushed over with Senior Mr. Hopkins.
Meanwhile, they also heard Christina's indignant words clearly. Old master Hopskin was holding acrutch and looked at Ms. Hopkins with a wrinkled face.
