My billionaire husband spoils me too much
Chapter 461

Charles deliberately told Senior Mr. Hopkins that those rich ladies were inclined to choose Christianaas the charity chairman.

"This is a good thing to learn, it's good for you to learn how to organize charity with them..." SeniorMr. Hopkins concluded, which made Christina have to make contact with those rich women."Charles knew I didn't like to deal with those women, but now grandpa asked me to do charity. Idon't know what to do now and I don't want to go."

Christina was a little angry and complained to Patrick at night.

"Didn't you say it was too boring staying at home? You could just make friends outside and learnsomething as if you were hanging out?" Patrick seemed to agree with this matter.

Christina could not refute, and she did not dare to disobey grandpa.

But she was not good at organizing the charity. The next day, some socialites invited her out forcoffee and chatted about the progress of the charity project. Christina acted like a stone statue allday, wasting her time listening to their chatter.

She didn't get down to business. Instead, she heard a lot of secrets about rich families, for example,a man and his sister-in-law secretly hooked up and someone married a rich businessman bypretending to be pregnant.

"Mrs. Halper made an appointment with us tomorrow. Mr. Halper is in the shipping business. Let'stalk to them about charity. Mr. He will donate a lot of money when he sees Christina working sohard to raise money for charity.”

To put it bluntly, they wanted to use the fame of the Hopkins family to make these rich peopledonate money more generously.

Christina was annoyed. No wonder as soon as they met her, they put forth an effort to choose heras the chairman. She was a simpleton who had been used.

"Patrick, I don't like these charities. They're so hypocritical.”

She had been on the run all day before returning home. She was so busy today that she didn't evenhave time to call Derek. She rushed to the study to complain to Patrick without having dinner.

"It's enough to get what we want." Patrick only replied to her like this.

It was obvious that he had long known the essence of the so-called charity.

Christina doubted, "Patrick, are you deliberately fooling me?" He knew that she was incompatiblewith those women, but asked her to deal with them.

Patrick put down the pen in his hand, looked up at her, and suddenly fell silent.

"What are you looking at?"

Christina felt a little awkward for him to keep silent and gaze at her quietly.

Patrick pondered over for a while, and then said slowly, "I was thinking whether you would like thejob of just being my wife?"

Being his wife was a job?

Christina gave a puzzled glance at him. What kind of question was this?

Patrick gazed at the woman before him and reached out to pull her to sit on his lap.

Although he looked cold, his eyes were soft. He said slowly in a low voice, "If you are just my wife,you won't have to run out. I was wondering if you would feel bored in that case.”

In fact, Patrick did not want her to go out for those so-called charities, nor did he want her to dealwith those socialites, which made her unhappy.

Christina didn't overthink and asked, "Do you want me to work in the IP&G Group like Barbara?"He told her calmly, "For me, a colleague is always a colleague. Don't you know I separate my family,my sister, from my wife very well?"

Christina gazed at him in a daze.

To be honest, she didn't really know the man in front of her, though he was her husband

In the corner of her eye, she glanced at a large stack of documents on his desk. These were thesecrets of many projects within the company, and there were many emails on his laptop thatneeded to be replied to.

"Patrick, aren't you tired from work?" It was the first time she had cared about his work.

It seemed that nothing in his daily work and life could make him feel hard.

Patrick pinched her nose and complained to her on purposed, "If I'm tired, I'll go home. Then I'll seethat you look angry and are ready to lose your temper with me."

Hearing what he said, Christina felt a little complicated and moved, but she said stubbornly, "Howcould I lose my temper with you?"

She put her arms around him and pressed her head on his shoulder. Suddenly, Christina felt thatshe had too many thoughts and was very ungrateful. Maybe this was the life she needed to endureafter marrying him.

Christina sighed, "It's so boring to be your wife."

When Patrick heard her words, he put his arm around her waist and laughed.

Christina had been very busy with charity recently.

There were too many projects that needed to be funded, such as projects to fund the poor children,the orphans, and the left-behind elderly in the villages. Every day, there were a lot of proposalsplaced in front of her, the so-called chairman

Recently, Patrick also went out on a business trip, so both of them were very busy.

Christina had no time to think about the meaning of life as before, and Senior Mr. Hopkins praisedher for the charity activities.

In fact, Christina still didn't like this kind of work, but she had to keep telling herself that there wasnothing unsatisfactory. She was already living a very happy life compared to others.

Besides, she disliked attending the so-called meetings.

The meetings were gatherings of a group of rich ladies who had no place to spend money. Theywould go to the beauty salon for a spa or stay together to enjoy tea, try new desserts, gossip, andthen think about which rich person could donate money.

"I don't understand. Is there something wrong with her head? She married such a good man, butshe's still not satisfied."

Today was the day of the meeting again. Christina listened expressionlessly to their heateddiscussion about the rumors in their social circle.

"Although Mr. Lannan is busy, he goes out to work without having a love affair stealthily. His wifecarried on a clandestine love affair with the male servant who was cutting the lawn at home. I heardthat Mr. Lannan came back early from his business trip, and caught Mrs. Liu having an affair withthat servant. It's humiliating.”

"I heard about this too. Mrs. Lannan was a model before getting married, and she is gorgeous. Herhusband was very generous to her, and he bought her a luxury car worth more than 800 milliondollars as a birthday present. However, she had sex with that servant in the car. My goodness, she'sfinished.”

"I think there must be some inside stories. Mrs. Lannan must have some unspeakable secrets.Otherwise, why did she do this? She isn't a simpleton.”

Christian heard them gossiping that a rich lady had cheated on her husband.

She didn't say anything and just listened quietly, trying to blend into this upper-class circle.

These women exclaimed in unison, "It's not easy for us even if we look gorgeous.”

Suddenly, one of the rich ladies turned to Christina with envious eyes, "Christina, you must live ahappy life."

Christina didn't know why they began to talk about her. Did she look happy after she was forced toattend such a boring meeting?

Another lady immediately interjected, "I've always wanted to go to the Hopkins Residence in person.Is your residence massive? I heard that there seem to be many villas with small golf courses inside.Are there hundreds of servants in your house?"

The lady looked very curious, and Christina smiled awkwardly, "I don't know how many people thereare." She didn't need to remember these things.

Suddenly, their enthusiasm surged.

"Christina, can I ask what are Patrick's preferences?”

"What does he usually like to eat, what kind of movies he likes, or does he have any specialpreferences on collections?”

Mrs. Capener was very excited. In order to be polite, she immediately added, "I don't mean anythingelse. Really, I'm just curious.”

As she spoke, her cheeks blushed slightly from excitement and she recalled some teenage memory."Because my father and some elders around me often mention him. I saw Patrick a few times when Iwas young. He didn't like to be disturbed, so I didn't dare to chat with him."

Since Mrs. Capener began the topic, another lady continued.

"When I was a child, I followed my father to parties and saw Senior Mr. Hopkins attend with Patrickfrom afar. Although he was a child, he had a specific temperament in the suit and was always veryeasy to be the center of attention. Besides, Patrick seemed to play the piano very well. My uselessbrother had always wanted to be friends with Patrick, but he didn't dare talk to Patrick. And I couldonly hide behind my brother.”

As she spoke, she was filled with memories and regrets.

Christina was a little surprised.

She knew that there must be a lot of women secretly admiring Patrick, but she didn't expect therewere this many, and they had a crush on Patrick since he was young.

Patrick was very popular.

"He doesn't have any hobbies and doesn't collect anything. Besides, he is not fussy about food. Idon't know anything else.” Christina replied generously.

But they felt a little disappointed.

Perhaps Christina's answers were brief, these ladies didn't make further detailed inquiries becausethey were worried that she felt uncomfortable about their questions.

Mrs. Mellish, sitting in the corner in a long purple dress, was drinking a cocktail in a bad mood.Maybe stimulated by the alcohol, she suddenly shouted at Christina.

"There are some things in this world that we can't envy. Christina, you are lucky to meet Patrick.There is no regret even if you break up one day.”

"What about me? I fucking married an ugly and fat geezer in his 50's. He has to take medicine tohave sex with me at night. Besides, he has a few mistresses outside. Anyway, I don't take himseriously, and we have been separate lives now. If he touch me at night, I would feel disgusted. If itweren't for the money, I would have run away!"

Drunkenness revealed what soberness concealed. Many of them married for money and luxury lives.They admitted that they were vain, but they were willing to give up love for living a better life.Christina listened to them complaining as if no matter how beautiful the world looked, there wouldalways be something distressed.

In Patrick's words, she could learn some social skills by participating in these charity activities.Christina did learn some kind of worldly wisdom now.

On Saturday, Crystal asked her out to go shopping.

In a cafe, Crystal heard what Christina said about the chat among those rich ladies and couldn't helppunching the table with a laugh.

"Haha, I can't stand it. It's so funny.”

"If Patrick knew that you have learned such things from those women, he must have a funnyexpression.”

Seeing Crystal laughing with delight, Christina was depressed, "He asked me to participate in thosemeetings.”
