My billionaire husband spoils me too much
Chapter 556

Chapter 556“Don't talk nonsense.”Senior Mr. Hopkins berated with a stern expression.“I'm not talking nonsense. Brianna has been mentally ill since childhood. She has schizophrenia.”Christina stood straight, looked right into Senior Mr. Hopkins's eyes, and said word by word,“Grandpa, did Brianna kill a maid in the Hopkins family when she was young?”As soon as she said it, Charles and the others changed their expressions.Did Brianna have schizophrenia?Senior Mr. Hopkins was also surprised. He didn't expect Christina to know about the past.“No matter how you found out this news, Brianna didn't kill anyone.” After a while, Senior Mr.Hopkins solemnly declared to her“Grandpa, at this time, you are still partial to her.” Christina had an unconvinced expression.The old butler tried to persuade her, “Junior Mrs. Hopkins, back then, that maid jumped into thelotus pond and drowned herself. It really had nothing to do with Miss Brianna.”"How could the maid drown herself in the lotus pond?”With a stubborn temper, Christina would not give up until she attained a good explanation.The old butler didn’t want to explain it too clearly, but in this situation, he was resigned to speak itout slowly.“The maid was originally responsible for the care and companionship of Young Master Hopkins.Later, when Miss Brianna entered the Hopkins family, Young Master Hopkins liked Miss Brianna verymuch. The two children often played together. So the maid was soon assigned other work.”“The maid was 18 years old at that time. She had her own ideas. Young Master Hopkins was the onlygrandson in the Hopkins family and everyone outside wanted to get close to him. She got a lot ofbenefits from the original work. It was difficult for her to accept the transfer of work, so she rejectedMiss Brianna very much and always hoped to transfer back to her original work.”"On the day of the accident, she tricked Miss Brianna into waiting for Young Master Hopkins at thelotus pond. The maid wanted to scare the timid Miss Brianna viciously. She took off Miss Brianna“sshoes and threw them into the lotus pond, but Miss Brianna was not scared to cry. The maid tookfurther action. She had planned to jump into the lotus pond and make herself drenched andembarrassed. Then she could complain that Miss Brianna had ordered her to jump down to look forshoes.”After all, Brianna was just a girl who was adopted and had no blood relationship with the Hopkinsfamily,Her sudden arrival affected the interests of some people, so no one was willing to support a strangegirl whether overtly or covertly. Everyone even hoped to get rid of her as soon as possible.It was also the hope of the maid. As long as Senior Mr. Hopkins thought that Brianna was tooimmoral, he would immediately send her back to the orphanage, and the maid could become theclosest to the male grandson of Hopkins family again.“That maid could swim, but she didn't expect her feet to cramp when she fell into the pool. Whenpeople in the distance heard her shouting for help and rushed over, she had been drowned.”The old butler told the truth about the accident.The old butler looked at Christina with a serious expression. “Miss Brianna witnessed it. She was only9 years old at that time. After that accident, she had a high fever for nearly a month and hadnightmares every day.”Senior Mr. Hopkins and the old butler had also seriously reorganized the servants of the Hopkinsfamily since then.At the same time, they also felt sorry for Brianna. This adopted Miss Brianna never complained orcaused any trouble.Her cautious and quiet manner was pitiful."After this incident, we had asked many doctors to treat Miss Brianna. The psychiatrist said that shehad suffered major psychological trauma and might become autistic in the future. She might alsohave some other mental problems.”When everyone heard what the old butler said, they felt more sympathy for Brianna. Charlesglanced at Christina's face and found that she was still disdainful.“Before Brianna entered the Hopkins family, both orphanages she stayed in had broken out seriousfires with casualties not long after she was admitted.”With a tense expression, Christina said rationally without any pity, “Grandpa, I don't believe thereare so many coincidences in this world.”“I won't let her go until I replace out the truth.”Christina showed her perseverance directly and looked straight into Senior Mr. Hopkins's cloudyand silent eyes.There was a moment of silence.Senior Mr. Hopkins did not speak immediately, but Judy had a quick tongue. “Dad, she actuallysuspects that Brianna has hidden the children. How ridiculous she is!”Who has hidden the children?” Senior Mr. Hopkins frowned and immediately asked.Christina didn't want Senior Mr. Hopkins to know about the missing twins, so she quicklyinterjected, “Grandpa, it's late. Go back and rest first. I'll give you an answer before dawn. I won'tabuse Brianna.”The old butler followed, “Exactly. Senior Mr. Hopkins, it's getting late. Please go to sleep first.Everyone is very distressed about Miss Lassie today. If anything happens, Junior Mrs. Hopkins willtake charge of it. You don't have toworry.”“Explain it to me. What do you mean that Brianna has hidden the children!”Senior Mr. Hopkins had no dementia. Of course, he could notice that Christina and the butler weredeliberately hiding it from him. Even the butler, who he trusted the most, did hide it. Senior Mr.Hopkins immediately tensed up.“Dad. It is Christina's random guess that the Children are missing. She just vents her anger onBrianna. It has nothing to do with Brianna.” Judy was afraid that Senior Mr. Hopkins wouldmisunderstand so she explained it quickly.“The children are missing!”“Senior Mr. Hopkins, we've sealed off the Hopkins family. We are looking for them.”Christina and the others talked outside the room door. They were very emotional and loud.“Ah!” a painful scream suddenly came from inside the room.Christina and the others were shocked. They immediately turned around and opened the door. “Ah,it's not me. It's not me.” Brianna scratched her head in pain, making her black hair messy, as if shewas struggling.Seeing it, everyone outside the door immediately shut up.Atrace of panic flashed across Senior Mr. Hopkins's face, and then he turned to look at Christina.Christina was not that startled. She frowned and stared into the room as if she had her own plans.“The children.”“Are the children really hidden by Brianna?” Senior Mr. Hopkins had a hint of fluster in his voice.“Brianna has been crying and can't answer.” With a serious expression, Christina muttered to herself,“I want Lucy to help me check Brianna’s previous whereabouts.”As Christina spoke, she took out her phone.She only hoped that Lucy would answer the call quickly because it was not easy to contact Lucynormally. This time, she could not think of any better helpers except Lucy.“Patrick is trapped on an uninhabited island. We can't contact him now.”Lucy quickly answered. In an eager voice, she suddenly mentioned Patrick's whereabouts.Christina, who was holding the phone tightly, had a complicated expression. “What did you say?”She repeated, “Lucy, did you say about Patrick being trapped on the island?”One trouble came after another.“Christina, why are you looking for me?” Lucy immediately realized that Christina didn't call her forPatrick."Don’t change the topic. Did you say that Patrick was trapped on the island just now?”Christina suddenly felt physically and mentally exhausted. Everything was so overwhelming that shehad no time to deal with them at all.Lucy's expression was a little hesitant. She quickly calmed down and said on the phone in a relaxedand normaltone.“This afternoon, the boss and his subordinates went to the island to investigate a secret project.Maybe the signal on the island was so bad that we couldn't contact them at night. We'veencountered it before.”The trick of lying lied in telling something with seventy percent truths and thirty percent falses.Whether it was true or not, Christina was more worried about the babies’ safety than Patrick's.“Lucy, put aside your work. Come to the Hopkins family now.”
