My billionaire husband spoils me too much
Chapter 456

Christina always asked for leave. Some of her colleagues complained about it and then ignored her,but Crystal was cautious. She sent Christina a message to ask her why.

Christina didn't get up until noon. She picked up her phone and looked through WhatsApp. Whenshe saw Crystal's message, she was guilty.

She poetically replied, "Because the moonlight last night was so beautiful.”

Crystal was working carefully in the company. When she glanced at the phone occasionally, shereplied, "Christina, when did you become a poet?"

Christina had to tell her that it was because of her husband.

When Crystal knew it, she couldn't help laughing.

Crystal replied humorously with an emoji of a winking face, "You had such a lovely night and youdidn't get up early today. Don't overdo it, girl."

They were young husband and wife. It was normal.

Christina replied, "Patrick told Shepherd that I would resign."

Christina was depressed about it. She was willing to resign. At first, she went to work to kill time. Butshe was tricked into resigning. It was upset.

Crystal was surprised. She replied, "Really? Will you submit an application for resignation toShepherd tomorrow?"

Suddenly, Christina hesitated. Senior Mr. Hopkins would not let her stay wit her sons all day. Andshe was not interested to be the chairperson of the charity party mentioned by the rich women lastnight. If she didn't go to work, she could only depend on Patrick for the rest of her life.

Crystal understood her and replied to comfort her, "It takes a month for transition. You still havetime for consideration.”

Christina could not help but sigh that Crystal was so considerate.

If Chandler bullied Crystal, Christina would definitely help Crystal to teach him a lesson.

If Christina stayed at home, she would see some annoying people, such as Lassie.

When Christina was feeding the fish in the pond, she heard Lassie's shill voice far away from thebamboo of Northern Garden. It was really a killjoy.

Lassie was hot-tempered. The servants kept their heads down when they saw her. Christina thoughtthat she reached menopause and would scold everyone she saw.

"What are you muttering over there?" Lassie swaggered towards her aggressively.

"Why did you go to work. Don't shame our family."

Lassie was instructed by Senior Mr. Hopkins in the Northern Garden. So she scolded Christina tovent her anger.

"We don't need your money. Don't gossip about our family with your humble colleagues... If you arecapable, you should learn to organize charity activities like my daughter and daughter-in-law so asto make our family more prestigious.”

"... You are idle every day. Trash! You live in our family for free, but you do nothing for the family.”Nancy, a young maid who reminded Christina to have dinner and medicine in time, was besideChristina.

"She is not so bad. Ms. Hopkins, you cannot say it!" She had been with Christina for a long time, soshe defended her.

Lassie glared at Nancy and scolded, "Bitch, shut up.”

Christina learned a lesson and pulled Nancy behind her. She said, "Ms. Hopkins, you just don't likeme. You don't need to lose your temper at her.”

"It's my freedom to disciple the maid. Christina, you pariah.”

Lassie was fierce. It seemed that she was boring and deliberately quarreled with her and thenscolded her for being unfilial.

Christina had to endure the crone.

She said, "I respect the elder. I won't argue with you."

"What? The elder?" Lassie was angrier. She hated to hear the word "elder".

Christina took a step back.

Looking at her ferocious face, Christina added, "I think you look ugly.”

Lassie was furious and glared at her.

Ugly?

How dare she say it?

Christina ran away with Nancy quickly.

They ran and Lassie behind them gasped and cursed..

Nancy was worried, "Madam, should I apologize to her?" Lassie was old, but she was hot-tempered.Anyone who offended her would be bullied by her.

"Don't be silly. Last time, she dragged you and kicked you. If you go back, she will kick you..."Finally, Christina went back. The structure of the house was clear, and she had the final say in theEastern Garden.

She was afraid that she would be instructed by Senior Mr. Hopkins if she kept quarreling with her.Otherwise, she would not run away.

"Ask Nanny Faang to send several strong men at the gate. Don't let Lassie come in. I'll buy severalfierce dogs to guard the door..."

"Madam, stop joking.” Nacy had served Christina for over a year. She was impressed by Christina'stemper.

"Senior Mr. Hopkins was dissatisfied with you last time. He loves Lassie. If Lassie tells him, he willhave a bad impression of you.”

Senior Mr. Hopkins was the head of the family. Anyone who was favored by him could be easy inthe family. Lassie was his daughter and he preferred her.

Christina hated it. There were too many family members here, causing many troubles for her.

She didn't want to meddle in these things. She said, "You should not be afraid. I told the truth. Sheis ugly.”

Nancy, who was behind her, smiled secretly.

However, Christina didn't expect Lassie to be unreasonable.

Patrick was on a business trip. So he was absent at dinner.

As usual, a few members of the Hopkins family sat around and waited for the dishes.

Lassie was a little late. She limped to the dining room of the main house. When Senior Mr. Hopkinssaw her, he scolded, "Courtesy!"

She was such a good actress. She cried on the ground for minutes as if she had suffered a greatgrievance.

Christina was stunned.

The servants immediately rushed up to help her. Judy comforted her quickly. Senior Mr. Hopkinswas astonished as well.

"What's going on?"

"Dad, I think I'll pack up and go back tonight. If I don't leave, I might die before you..."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Senior Mr. Hopkins was angry, "Stand up and talk to me!""My foot is sprained and crippled. I cannot stand up.” Lassie burst into tears again.

Christina thought that Lassie was indeed injured. The butler called the doctor. The doctor diagnosedher and found that it was a traumatic fracture in her left ankle.

The private doctor frowned and said, "It was caused by heavy objects or violence. She must be sentto the hospital for an x-ray to see the specific injury and the bone. Considering her age, she shouldbe taken good care of for the next few years and could not be in cold water. And she must walkslowly..."

"I don't want to live." Lassie cried on the sofa

Senior Mr. Hopkins knew well his daughter, but he didn’t expect it. He said to the butler seriously,"Arrange a car to send her to the hospital now."

"I'm not going to the hospital.”

"I'll die here.” Lassie cried and thumped on the sofa, "Anyway, someone hopes me to die. I won't goto the hospital. I am old and ugly. I don't want to live..."

Christina, who was aside, was alert. Lassie was talking about her.

"Ms. Hopkins, I just argued with you in the afternoon. You don't need to mind it. It's your foot. If youdon't go to the hospital, the injury will be more serious and you might need an amputation..."Christina didn't think too much and said it. She just wanted to scare her and asked her to go to thehospital quickly.

But she sounded terrible.

Lassie cried with tears all over her face and screamed, "Dad, she is such a bad woman... Christina,you broke my foot and you hope me to have an amputation. Oh, I don't want to live..."

Christina retorted seriously, “When did I break your foot?"

"Christina, I was in a bad mood in the afternoon. It was my fault that I instructed you..." Lassiepropped up her upper body and accused Christina on the sofa

"I think you are my family. If I did anything wrong, you can just say it out. You hid with a maid. Youhated me and attacked me behind my back. I was pushed to the ground. And you threw a big stoneon my foot. It was hurting. You wanted to kill me. You are so cruel..."

Lassie looked excited. She gritted her teeth in tears and accused Christina

"I didn’t do it."

Christina looked at her and tried to refute calmly.

The extended car was here and the stretcher was prepared. Several maids tried to persuade Lassieto go to the hospital first.

But she refused, "I just want justice today!"

"Dad, I'm your daughter. You know that I have a bad temper, but I dare not lie about it. She musttake the responsibility!" She sounded forceful.

Senior Mr. Hopkins, the butler and Nanny Faang looked at Christina suspiciously.

"I didn't do it." Christina turned her face slightly and repeated.
