My billionaire husband spoils me too much
Chapter 475

Christina looked at Derek for a while, feeling a little at loss. She immediately got up to look for themedical record and a pile of CT reports hanging at the end of the bed.

All indicators of his physical examinations were quite good, and the CT test for his brain alsoshowed normal.

Derek himself had a Ph.D. in medicine, and his talent was extraordinary. He knew it better thanmany authorities. But now, he did not understand what was wrong with his body, and these doctorscould not help him.

Crystal didn't know much about medicine and suggested, "Why don't we go to another hospital orgo abroad for a checkup..."

Derek did not panic at all.

He looked indifferent and looked at the calendar hanging on the wall. Three days later, it would bethe fifteenth of the month, a day of a full moon.

"Bae, I'm leaving the hospital.” He suddenly told to her in a low voice.

Christina disagreed, "You haven't been diagnosed yet. Why do you leave the hospital? Just staythere."

Derek was more stubborn than anyone else. When he said he wanted to be discharged, he meanexactly what he said.

He got up and went under the bed to take out a bag. There were several files with copies of thecontract documents in the bag. He handed it to her.

"What is this?"

Derek looked at her and hesitated, "Help me hand it to Peter. It's... It's the company's documents.”Hearing that they were company documents, Christina took them without further concerns.Suddenly, an acquaintance stood at the door, "It turns out that you spend all day outside dealingwith a man. Now I'll see how you explain it." Ms. Hopkins took a picture of Christina and the otherswith her phone.

Christina turned around and immediately became angry, "Ms. Hopkins, you can still run around inthe hospital after being hospitalized. Is your leg okay?" She gritted her teeth.

"Oh, what do you want to do, scare me?"

Ms. Hopkins was smashed by something last time, now she had recovered 70% from her injuries.She was still in a cast, and neither of them had a good temper when they met.

Ms. Hopkins looked as if she had something against Christina and said coldly, "Christina, you havemarried into my Hopkins family. How dare you hook up outside..."

Christina was angry. The last time Ms. Hopkins was smashed by something in the leg and sheinexplicably said that Christina was the one who did it. This was slander.

This Ms. Hopkins did not know how to behave properly as an elder. Christina also directly rebukedher angrily, "Ms. Hopkins, you are married to another family already, but you always speak “we theHopkins family’. Now that you are a daughter-in-law of another family, won't you be embarrassed ifyou always talk about “we the Hopkins family?"

Ms. Hopkins looked furious hearing Christina surprisingly saying this, "You, you flirtatious bitch..."Christina had argued with Ms. Hopkins too many times. So she pretended not to care and ridiculed,"Ms. Hopkins, you act as if you were a princess with such a bad temper. You are no longer young,and still, you take yourself as the young Miss Lassie of the Hopkins family. I really pity yourdaughter, your daughter-in-law, and your granddaughter. They must extremely hate you secretly.You have to have some self-awareness."

"Patrick, look at your wife. How vicious she is..."

Ms. Hopkins suddenly raised her voice and let out a cry of grievance.

Christina's expression changed slightly. She looked at the corridor. Patrick and Charles were walkingtowards her.

They heard Christina's last sentence clearly.

Vicious.

Christina did not want to refute at all. She did not want to be humiliated by these so-called elders ofthe Hopkins family. She did not want to endure it any longer.

Lassie limped and dragged her leg in a cast. She anxiously walked to Patrick's side, used her phoneto show the picture she had just taken of Christina and Derek leaning close together, "Patrick, look,look at your wife, she's with another man...”

Patrick glanced at the screen and then looked up at her.

Christina found it amusing. She finally understood why Patrick looked like that when he dragged herto the hospital for pregnancy tests. At that time, he thought she was cheating on him and that shehad another lover. He had never really trusted her.

The most serious taboo for a daughter-in-law from a rich and powerful family was to avoid havingtoo much contact with other men. If she shook hands or met with another man other than herhusband, she would be accused of cheating even when there was no evidence for such accuse.Christina looked cold, then she approached the door. Then, she stretched out her right hand andslammed the door of the ward.

Ms. Hopkins and the others stood outside the ward, hearing a bang. Christina looked gloomy. Shedidn't want to talk to these people at all.

The door was closed, but it did not mean that people outside the door could not come in. Patrickturned the door open and looked at Christina with complicated eyes.

"Derek, what's wrong?" He suddenly asked.

Crystal was in the ward. She nervously approached Christina and whispered near her ear, "Pease talkproperly.” Crystal was afraid that Christina's sudden impulse would make the atmosphere evenmore stifling.

Christina suppressed her irritation and looked at Patrick coldly. She did not lose her temper andtried to ask calmly, "Can you help him?"

Such a question was like a request between strangers.

"Your relative is very ugly."

Derek walked up to Christina as if deliberately blocking her behind him. His blue eyes looked atPatrick, then he calmly told Patrick, "The people around you are really annoying."

Derek didn't usually talk to people. The two men looked at each other. What Derek had just saidobviously showed that he hated people from the Hopkins family. Those people were mean,ferocious, and scheming in rich families.

Larry also barged in. He came to help with handling procedures for being discharged from thehospital. He glanced at Patrick in the ward. Subconsciously, he was the one who did not like peoplefrom the Hopkins family. However, rationally speaking, Larry hoped that Patrick could help. After all,Derek's medical situation was very complicated.

Derek seemed to have ignored Patrick's existence. He said to Christina, "Don't lose the bag.” Herarely warned her like this.

Christina's hand was held by Derek, which seemed like the last handshake. Derek looked at her withdeep eyes and said in a deep and mellow voice, "Bae, I'm leaving.”

Christina was slightly stunned and her mind was in a trance for a moment. When she tried to holdhim back with force, Derek simply let go of her hand.

Derek and Larry walked out of the ward.

She just looked at Derek's slender and erect back. Derek seemed to have gotten rid of this diseaseand looked relaxed, calm, and elegant.

But this fine figure was so difficult to keep and made people feel like it would disappear.

Outside the door, Ms. Hopkins stood and watched the show. She didn't mind drawing others’attention and shouted, "Oh, look, he must have done something bad, so now he leaves in such ahurry..."

When Christina passed Lassie, she suddenly kicked her.

"Ah!"

Lassie's broken leg was in a cast, and the other leg of hers was suddenly kicked hard by Christina.She lost her balance and fell back to the ground, screaming in embarrassment.

Charles nearby was stunned by this. For a moment, he forgot his gentlemanly demeanor and didnot help. He looked at Christina leave without looking back, who left arrogantly.

"Stop, stop her. It hurts so much...”

Ms. Hopkins's face was ferocious and she wanted to get up to fight Christina.

In the corridor of the hospital, she shouted angrily, "You saw it. You saw it just now. This Christina isevil. Such a vicious woman should be divorced. We the Hopkins family don't want such agranddaughter-in-law..."

Christina could hear Lassie crying and howling from afar. Crystal quickly caught up with her andwhispered, "Hi, is it really okay to kick her like that?"

Crystal felt that this Lassie was not an easy piece to deal with and she would definitely make ascene.

Christina felt no guilty and said calmly, "I've wanted to kick her for a long time."

Hearing her saying this so honestly, Crystal did not know what to say, feeling angry and alsoamused.

That night, Ms. Hopkins called the Hopkins family and complained to Senior Mr. Hopkins aboutbeing publically kicked by Christina in the hospital. She said that Christina was disrespectful and hada bad temper. In short, Christina did not deserve to be the granddaughter-in-law of the Hopkinsfamily.

"Dad, to show Patrick a favor, I forgive her for kicking me... But you mustn't let her have too manycontacts with the twins at home. The children are too young to know right and wrong. A wickedmother like Christina will definitely implicate the babies in the future.”

Lassie knew what her father cared most about, that was, the heirs to the Hopkins family, which werethe root of a family in every elder's mind.

After hanging up the phone, Senior Mr. Hopkins frowned and remained silent.

The old butler, who had been accompanying him for many years, called out, "Old Master, don'tworry too much. Children have their own blessings.”

The twins were naturally great-grandchildren, but the old butler knew that in Senior Mr. Hopkins'sheart, Patrick was his favorite as he brought Patrick up personally. If it hadn't been for this, SeniorMr. Hopkins wouldn't have agreed to Patrick's marriage with Christina, Judging by her position. IfPatrick liked something or someone, Senior Mr. Hopkins would let Patrick have them.

"What did the nanny come to tell you yesterday?"

Though Senior Mr. Hopkins was old, he was not confused nor stupid. The nanny from the nurserycame to Northern Garden to complain. He did not interfere in these trivial matters, but he generallyknew that there was such a matter.

The old butler did not dare to hide it, "It was said that Christina went to the nursery at night to readfairy tales to the children... That story was a little special and slightly affected the child's sleep.”When Christina arrived at the Main Residence for dinner at night, she already felt the tension in theatmosphere. But she did not want to say it out, she then lowered her head to eat as usual.

People in the Hopkins family didn't usually chat a lot at the dining table, as they followed familyrules strictly.

Christina was in a bad mood tonight and had no appetite. She took a few small bites, put down herchopsticks, got up, and said, "Please excuse me."

She got up and left the table first, and grandpa and the others didn't say anything

But not long after Christina left the Main Residence, someone followed her. She turned around andsaw that it was the old butler.

"Did Ms. Hopkins call to complain?" Christina asked coldly without waiting for him to speak.

The old butler looked at her pretty face, a face which did not know to reserve feelings. The oldbutler had seen many ladies that were born in rich and powerful families and had angelic andbeautiful faces. They all had their unique features. But in the Hopkins family, people usuallysubconsciously restrained their real selves. Also, members of the Hopkins family had alwayspreferred a low-key and noble daughter-in-law. A woman like Christina was never the first choicefor a granddaughter-in-law in the Hopkins family.

Christina didn't like to be looked at like this. She felt like she was being picked by others as if shewere a piece of fat pig meat. She felt very uncomfortable.

Christina was very frank, "This afternoon, I kicked her on purpose.” Her eyes were clear and she didnot sound guilty at all, "Because I don't like her. She spoke terribly.”

"Ms. Hopkins, she is your senior elder no matter what.”

The old butler was lecturing on behalf of Senior Mr. Hopkins because there were many things thatwere not suitable for Senior Mr. Hopkins to say directly. So he asked the old butler to speak for him,so as not to break the relationship between him and Christina.

Christina was in a bad mood and didn't want to hear this. She asked directly, "So what? Doesgrandpa want me to go to the hospital to apologize to Lassie? Or do you want she to kick meback?"

The old butler looked at her beautiful face and the arrogance and wildness in her eyes.

"Senior Mr. Hopkins just wants you to learn to be more mature and steady. Don't make the houserestless. As the future hostess of the Hopkins family, you have a lot to learn..."

Christina interrupted and suddenly sneered, "Tell grandpa that I don't deserve to be the hostess ofthe Hopkins family."

When the old butler heard her say that, his face immediately became serious, "You can't say suchthings casually.”

"Don't you know what grandpa’s daughters are like?"

Christina simply spoke things clearly and looked straight at him.

"You're just protecting your own people and you think they are right. I'm a granddaughter-in-law, adaughter from another family. So you should require me to be a decent and noble wife, a goodmother. I'm sorry, I can't imitate Ms. Hopkins's tone. I know I'm not the most ideal granddaughter-in-law in your mind. Why don't you listen to her suggestion and ask Patrick to divorce me directly? Idon't have a say. You can do whatever you want!"

In the end, she didn't hide her anger.

Christina turned around angrily and left.

The old butler was left in a daze. Others would kill for the title as a daughter-in-law of the Hopkinsfamily. However, she easily said the word “divorce.”

At the gate of the Main Residence, Patrick stood upright under the dark night. The night wind blewover. He had heard clearly what Christina and the old butler said just now.
