Chapter 535It wasn't until near noon when the kids were tired and the twins needed a nap that Christina left thebabys’ room.“Did you say Geoffrey came to me?”As soon as Christina walked out of the room, the maid reminded her again, “Geoffrey has beenwaiting for you in the living room of the Main Residence since three hours ago.”“The little guy?”Although she had some conflicts with the Stephenson family before, Geoffrey was just a child, soChristina went easy on him."Did Geoffrey sneak to the Hopkins family himself and look for me?”Christina was surprised at the news from the servants.As she quickened her pace, she complained, “Why didn’t you make it clear just now?”She felt a little embarrassed to keep a child waiting.The maid behind Christina lowered her head more, not daring to explain. Just now, when Christinaheard Small call her mommy, she was so happy that she couldn't hear anything.The Hopkins family was very large. It could be regarded as a scenic spot if visitors strolled in a goodmood. But visitors who were mentally restrained would feel antsy. The decorations and buildingshere were extremely magnificent and the layout was so spacious that even a speech echoed.Geoffrey, a six-year-old child, had waited for a few hours in the living room of the Hopkins family’sMain Residence.Geoffrey sat on the sofa quietly with his little schoolbag in his arms. He straightened his back anddid not even dare to look around. There was a glass of juice on the table. Besides, there was noservant to chat with him.Because servants in the Hopkins family bit their lips as the rules.When Christina strode in, two servants standing at the door of the Main Residence greeted, “JuniorMrs. Hopkins...”Hearing it, Geoffrey immediately turned to look at her excitedly."Aunt Hopkins.”Geoffrey finally saw an acquaintance. He quickly jumped off the sofa and ran towards Christina withhis little schoolbag in his arms,knowing that Geoffrey had been waiting for her innocently for a few hours, Christina felt very guilty.She squatted down to stay on a level with him and asked apologetically, “Geoffrey, did you comehere alone?”Although Geoffrey was only six years old this year, he was very smart. He had run away severaltimes, and Chandler seemed to be used to his wandering around.Geoffrey stood about half a meter in front of Christina. As if answering the teacher's question, hespoke with great honesty."... My grandmother took me to school. After my grandmother left, I sneaked out of school. I hadpocket money and took a taxi here.”Christina could see that he was a little nervous. Standing upright, he spoke in a very sincere tone.For a moment, Christina didn't know what to say."What if your family is worried about you when you sneak out?” The school was probably busylooking for him.As Christina spoke, she took out her phone from the pocket and was about to call Chandler."Aunt Hopkins, don't tell my grandma and the others that I'm here.” Geoffrey looked at her eagerlywith an awkward expression. Lowering his voice, he pleaded, “Aunt Hopkins, I'll go back to schoolby myself.”Geoffrey timidly tugged at the hem of Christina’s clothes.Christina looked at him. She heard that Geoffrey had an operation for appendicitis a few days ago.Now he was a little pale and obviously thin. Seeing his look, Christina felt distressed.“Then why did you come here to see me?” Christina asked him in compromise.Geoffrey looked down at the tip of his foot, hesitating and not knowing what to say. He wrapped hisblue schoolbag tightly with his small hands.*... Can you help me call Aunt Zhu home?" His voice was timid, as if he had made a mistake and didnot dare to speak loudly.Christina was a little surprised.Christina told him in an adult tone, It's their adult business. You don’t have to..."When Geoffrey heard her say so, he immediately became anxious and looked up. “I, I know... AuntZhu ran away because of me... I don't live at home. I have lived with my mother.”"Aunt Hopkins, can you help me call her home?” Geoffrey's bright eyes held back the tears.Christina didn't know what to do for a moment."Crystal Zhu has her own ideas...” She felt that it was complicated to talk to a six-year-old childabout adult relationships.“Your father will discuss it with her. Don't worry.” Christina wanted to reach out and pat him on theshoulder.However, Geoffrey turned around and stubbornly lowered his head, obviously not listening to herpersuasion.Geoffrey muttered in a choked voice, “I'm not my father's biological child. My biological father'sname is Mark."“Dad and mom have a bad relationship. They used to quarrel all day long. My dad always gave in tomy mom but she was always dissatisfied. I know my dad is very unhappy. He doesn't like theStephenson family, doesn't like my mom, and probably doesn't like me anymore..."At this point, Geoffrey cried out."... My dad likes Aunt Zhu, and I like Aunt Zhu, too.”Geoffrey raised his little face covered in tears, and he pleaded in a choked voice, “Aunt Hopkins, canyou help me call Aunt Zhu back? My father is so sad every day. I don't want him to be so sad.”Geoffrey sobbed, with tears shedding uncontrollably.He seemed really helpless, anxious and flustered, trembling and crying.Christina also panicked. She didn't know how to comfort the child."... Actually, your father found out that Crystal was on a flight to France”...Christina was so nervous that she told everything she knew."Crystal didn't tell me much about it. She only said that she was going to France to learn to cook It.seemed that there were more than a dozen peers studying with her. Her living and lodging shouldbe safe.”"Although Aunt Zhu is usually timid and careful, she is considerate. You don't have to worry toomuch. She also went abroad to study in college. She can take good care of herself.”Christina really didn’t know how to comfort a child. In the end, she had to pick Geoffrey up and puthim on the sofa. Then she found some tissues and put them in front of him, “Don't cry.”It seemed that Geoffrey couldn't stop crying. He cried with his head down and held the tissue in hissmall hands without saying anything."... I really can't get in touch with your Aunt Zhu, but don't worry. I've already ordered to look forher, There'll be news soon.”Christina had already sent a message to Lucy, warning her sternly to give a quick hand.“Actually, I also think your father cares about her...”"Her pregnancy was an accident, as well as her miscarriage. There's a lot of confusion... Your AuntZhu is like an ostrich. Faced with unsolvable problems, she will replace a place to hide. You can't forceher now. When she is relieved and has a strong mind, she will take the initiative to speak out. Themore you force her, the more uncomfortable she will be.”Christina squatted anxiously in front of Geoffrey and kept talking. In the end, she began talkingnonsense.That afternoon, Chandler and Charles came to the Hopkins family together. They seemed to haveknown that Geoffrey was here. Considering the dignity of the child, they did not question whyGeoffrey was so willful to run out of school secretly. Chandler held Geoffrey's little hand, and thenthey got into the car and left.Charles stayed and went to Patrick's study.".... Geoffrey suddenly ran to Christina. The child was crying so sadly that he might have scaredChristina. When I went in, I saw Christina trying her best to comfort him.”Patrick was interested to hear it. He asked in a low voice, "What did Christina say?”Charles made a sarcastic expression. “She was talking nonsense crazily.”Patrick smiled when he heard it."... Geoffrey hasn't cried much since he was born. It's strange that the little guy has cried in front ofChristina several times as far as I know. Christina has a special affinity with children and animals.”Patrick was in a good mood and thought of his youngest son “Small doesn't like to cry when seeingher."Charles also smiled. “What a little horror Small is!” Only his own mother could get him to beliave.
