My billionaire husband spoils me too much
Chapter 450

Last night, Derek's condition suddenly plummeted, which scared Christina, Charles and the others.The sun was rising and shining as if everything had returned to normal.

Charles explained guiltily, "Derek's condition shouldn't be so bad. He just had an external injury. Wehave experience with external injuries... I don't know why it suddenly became so serious.”Fortunately, Derek quickly returned to normal after he was rolled to the emergency room last night.He did not need surgery. In three hours, his blood pressure and heart rate returned to normal, andall the indicators were normal. Even the doctor was amazed and could not believe it.

"I admit, we were too impulsive.”

After a long night, Charles calmed down. He was more rational during the day. He saw with his owneyes that Derek was suddenly in critical condition and almost lost his life. Charles regretted andreflected on himself.

He only wanted to know the whole story. He didn't want Derek dead.

Christina looked at him expressionlessly and didn't say anything.

At this time, only the two of them were outside Derek's ward. Charles knew that she was very angry.Every time Derek was involved, Christina seemed to stand by his side without hesitation.

Charles saw that she was still ignoring him. He lost his patience. He said with self-mockery, "I see.Patrick and I are bullies. Derek is the innocent one.”

The elevator door opened, and a figure ran over angrily. When Charles heard the hurried footsteps,he turned around and saw Larry coming to them furiously, "You self-righteous rich bastards. Youmotherfucker. Do you think you could get away with this if you don't have your family to protectyou?"

Larry punched Charles in the nose angrily.

"Ah -" Charles cried out in pain. Seeing the person in front of him, he did not fight back.

He covered his nose and cursed in pain, "What is wrong with you." Larry was Derek's uncle. Charlesknew him. But Larry beat him up without saying anything, Charles only thought that Larry was crazy."It was because of Derek's suspicious behavior that we suspected him..."

"You beat him up like this because you suspected him! Charles Shepherd! You have the guts. Don'tgive me the chance, or I will mess you up! You never know when you will be the less fortunate one!"Larry regarded Charles as his enemy and scolded him.

"Stop." Christina didn't want to see them arguing outside the ward. She tugged at Larry, "Derek wasinjured when they found him."

Larry turned to look at her, his eyes were cold. He mocked her, "You actually believe them, rich menlike them who have been spoiled since they were little..."

"I know the area where Derek lives well. I sent someone to ask. No one went in before they wentinto Derek's apartment.” Larry was still angry. He glared at Charles, "You bullying bastards..."Christina's expression froze. She quickly looked at Charles, "Did you lie?"

Charles yelled at them angrily, "Damn it, I swear to god that we really didn't beat Derek. Christina,how could you not believe us!"

Larry listened and sneered, "Then go in and ask Derek..."

"We didn't do it!" Charles was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

Then who was lying?

Christina's mind was blank and confused, probably because she hadn't rested for the whole night."Stop it.” She called out in a low voice

Larry and Charles didn't seem to be in the mood to quarrel either. They looked at each other angrilyand hated each other.

"Aren't the Fisher family coming?” Christina looked at the door of the ward. She suddenlyremembered what the doctor said last night, they would contact Derek's family with a criticalcondition notice.

This was a very absurd joke.

"The Fisher family. They received the call and all pretended not to know. It would be better for themif Derek died on the operating table. They can get more from the family property with one lessperson to share.” Larry gritted his teeth and sneered. How cold was the family? They only hadmoney in their eyes.

Christina had long known that Derek had always been alone in the world.

Since he was born, no one had protected him. He didn't understand love because he never got tobe loved.

Christina lowered her head, feeling heavy.

"You should go back to the Hopkins family," Larry looked at her and said coldly, "I heard that youare doing well in the Hopkins family, and Senior Mr. Hopkins treats you very well. These rich familiesare most afraid of gossips.”

Larry gave her a push, his tone cold.

He hoped that Christina would not live well in the Hopkins family, so at least there would be someexcuses for him to get closer to her. But she was Hopkins family's granddaughter-in-law. And hehad always been at odds with the Hopkins family.

"Leave now. This is not the place you should be now. You shouldn't stay here.”

Larry turned around and entered the ward. With a bang, he quickly shut and locked the door.

The empty corridor echoed Larry's aggressive words. She was one of the Hopkins family andshouldn't stay here.

"Christina, go back.”

Even Charles urged her to leave. Christina had a pale and sickly face because she stayed up late.Charles glared at the locked door and muttered angrily, "I'll wait for this bastard Larry to come outand ask Derek... I don't want to be blamed all the time."

Christina did not insist. She was not a doctor. She could not help Derek by staying here. He hadbegun to recover. She did not have to worry about what the Ancient Coin said.

She walked out of the hospital building in a daze. She followed the others out of the elevator. Theglaring sunshine that shone through the glass in the hospital lobby made her immediately raise herright hand to block the sunlight. She had stayed up for two nights. Coupled with her heavy mind,she looked weak.

"You look like you would faint at any time.” A clear female voice sounded from her right.

Christina's expression didn't change. She turned around. Lucy handed her a cup of black coffee.The strong smell of coffee got in her nose, "You need to refresh yourself. If you faint, I have to carryyou. I don't want trouble.”

Christina looked at the coffee cup that had been handed to her nose and took it directly, "What'sthe matter?" She was not in the mood to talk to Lucy now.

"I saw you arguing with an Ancient Coin," Lucy said bluntly.

Christina looked at Lucy in surprise. She didn't expect Lucy to mention the Ancient Coin. Shethought that Lucy would think that she was mentally ill.

The Ancient Coin said that Derek died...

It also talked about the full moon.

Christina now believed that it was talking nonsense

"You won't believe me."

Christina took a sip of coffee. The coffee had soothed her mind a little, but she was still not in themood to talk about these things.

"I don't... But I'm curious.”

Lucy's eyes were eager, she was asking for information that would be useful to her. "Christina, whatdid you hear from your hallucination?" She could infer Christina's psychological condition from whatshe heard.

"Hallucination." Christina laughed.

Her smile was pale. "Patrick sent you to follow me, and you only found out that I was hallucinating.He will not be satisfied with this result.” As she spoke, she slammed the coffee cup in her hand intothe trash can next to her.

It seemed that there had never been any trust between her and Patrick. He always liked to sendpeople to investigate her and follow her.

Lucy shrugged. She did not deny that Patrick had asked her to follow Christina.

Christina turned around and left. Lucy raised her eyebrows and watched Christina walk towards theparking lot. She did not chase after because someone was already waiting there.

"Get in the car."

Patrick stood next to a silver-gray Rolls-Royce. But his eyes had been fixed on the gate. The momenthe saw Christina, he stopped her.

Christina stopped and looked at him for a second. She walked straight towards him withouthesitation since she did not have any reason to say no.

Patrick opened the door and quickly put out the cigarette at his fingertips. He immediately sat in thedriver's seat. He drove here himself today.

Christina sat in the passenger seat next to him and glanced at the cigarette tray in his car. In theashtray were seven or eight cigarette butts. Patrick didn't like smoking. Patrick would only smokewhen he was upset. When she was pregnant, he almost quit smoking.

Patrick started the car slowly and drove out of the crowded hospital area.

Patrick asked casually, "Is he awake?" His voice was calm

"Yes."

She knew that he was asking about Derek.

Then, there was silence in the car, as if there was nothing else to talk about.

Patrick was driving at an even speed. Suddenly, he said, "The situation is like what Larry said. Thenearby surveillance showed that no one entered Derek's apartment before we went there... Thefingerprints left in the room all belong to us..."

Therefore, given the fact that Derek was seriously injured, they couldn't defend themselves andprove themselves innocent.

However, Patrick did not ask her to believe him.

Patrick looked straight ahead as if he was focused on driving. His tone was flat, "Will you ask Derekwhat had happened tomorrow?"

Derek wouldn't talk to others except for Christina.

Only Christina could replace out the truth.

"I will." She replied in a flat tone.

The car stopped outside the Hopkins family gate. Patrick asked her to get out.

Patrick was still sitting in the car. He seemed very tired. He leaned back, raised his head, and litanother cigarette...
