Chapter 582Mary condescended to move in the Hopkins family.She was assigned the room next to Brianna’s in Western Garden, which was already exceptionallygood treatment.But Mary was still a little dissatisfied, “Why can't I live in the Eastern Garden?”“Most guests are arranged to stay in Western Garden. If you need anything, please feel free to tellus.”Nanny Faang greeted her. When she knew this was Christina's biological mother, she was surprisedbecause Christina was easygoing, but this woman was nit-picking.“Don’t think your house is spacious. My home is even bigger and has more servants.” Mary's tonewas full of arrogance.Nanny Faang, of course, didn't feel like arguing with her. Her head was down, and she said politely,“Madam, it's late already. Call the servants outside if you need anything.”"Okay, Victor has brought me here a few times,” Mary was used to ordering servants haughtily. Shewaved her hand, hinting to Nanny Faang to leave.The "Victor" she mentioned was Patrick's father.Mary was famous in their social circle because of her beauty back then and was admired bycountless men. Victor was one of them.Christina was in Eastern Garden and heard that her mother had moved in.Even though she was her mother, she only felt it was troublesome.She had seen it at the Dickens family yesterday. Her mother, Mary, was not an easy nut to crack.She didn't know why Patrick invited her mother to stay in the Hopkins family."Why don’t you go replace your sons If you are idle?”Patrick seemed to be indifferent to his sons’ disappearance. Christina doubted whether he hadfatherly love orSerior Mr Hopkins had no opinion of Mary's arrival. It seemed that Brianna’s incident had hit himhard and made wn feel guilty. He had stayed in Northern Garden and almost didn't go out, and heeven began to believe in Buddhist and practise vegetarianismMary's moving in led the people in the Hopkins family to go all out preparing meals, as they didntwant to be a2:08 PMpoor host.But it wasn't dinner time yet.Nanny Faang suddenly saw a maid running to her in a hurry and saying, “Mrs. Hopkins and Ms.Eisenhower are fighting.”“What?”Even Nanny Faang was stupefied.The maid looked anxious and didn’t know how to express herself. While she dragged Nanny Faangto Western Garden, she explained,” It seemed that Ms. Eisenhower and Mrs. Hopkins used to knoweach other. They met in Western Garden. After a few words, they started to fight and pulled eachother's hair. We didn’t know what to do.When Nanny Faang arrived, she saw Judy grappling with Mary on the floor from afar. Both of themlooked very embarrassed.Their fancy clothes were in disarray, and Mary sat fiercely on Judy's chest. Apparently, she gainedthe upper hand. They pulled each other's long hair, like two crazy women, without any dignifiedtemperament.Oh my god!They both had high social status. Why were they fighting like this?Nanny Faang immediately went to Christina and reported the matter to her.Christina pressed her forehead, and her temples throbbed with pain.“You had pulled them away, right?”She didn't know the love-hate relationship between her mother and Judy, but it was not appropriatefor her mother to fight as she had just moved in.During dinner, Mary and Judy were eating at the same table. The two women looked at each otherwith resentment and fierce hostility. They both clenched the knives and forks in their hands andwished they could poke each other in the faceSenior Mr Hopkins still didn’t go out, and he was eating at Northern Garden When seeing Patrickadd some food for Christina as if nothing had happened, he appeared to be very happy*Dident you already know that your mother and my mother used to have feuds, so you deliberatelylet them live together and fightAfter dinner, Christina coudet telp but pull Patrick to the lotus pond and ask himPatrick looked at her absent-mindedly. She held his arm tightly, and it had been a long time sinceshe had willingly approached him.Regarding Mary, he did not deny it. “When people are angry, they tend to lose their minds andspeak without restraint.”Christina didn't understand."You asked my mother to stay here because you wanted to trick her?”Patrick did not answer but took a step forward.He wrapped his arm around her waist and held her head. Christina's cheeks were pressed against hisneck. Then he lowered his head and kissed her forehead. The warm and moist breath made herblush.Patrick's voice was very gentle, “Do you want to see our kids?"Christina was stiff when Patrick hugged her. He kissed her eyebrows, and his deep and gentle voicewas in herears.Then, Patrick continued, “Just a few more days. You'll be able to see our sons.”That meant she couldn't go to see the twins now.Patrick let go of her and skillfully brushed the hair on her forehead. His eyes fixed on her, andChristina's face was still red.His actions towards her were natural and intimate, which was less like the wildness of passionatelove, but more like they were an old couple.He thought of the word “eternal”.It seemed that Patrick had always been so attentive and indulgent to her.Even if she forgot him, her heart could not help but surrender to him. A man like Patrick could makea woman fall for him effortlessly,She was used to his indulgence and tyranny.Her whole heart was his All she could see was only him,Christina flushed and suddenly felt that she had married a sly old fox. This man was so shrewd anddeepChristina did not know what Patrick wanted from her mother. She was in the Hopkins family, whichwould bring trouble for sureHer mother was a difficult person, Christina was always embarrassed, but she couldn't do anythingas she was her biological mother.Then, the next morning, Nanny Faang told her that she had two visitors.Christina felt dizzy“Miss Zhu has returned home with a French girl. They are waiting for you in the living room.”Christina's memories only stayed at high school when she had to prepare for the college entranceexamination. Crystal was her deskmate and roommate, and the relationship between them wassimple.“Christina, it's great to see that you're well.”When Crystal saw her, she ran over excitedly and hugged her tightly.Christina looked a little uneasy. In her impression, Crystal was not so enthusiastic.“This is Emma, a good friend I know in France. We asked for leave from the owner of the restaurant.For the next half month, I plan to live in the Hopkins family.”Crystal was a little different from what she imagined. Maybe these years, their relationship haddeveloped deeper, or she changed after going abroad. In the past, Crystal would not have said socarelessly that she wanted to live in someone else's house.Christina did not object. “Then, I'll ask Nanny Faang to arrange it.”Emma, who was sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but exclaim, “Oh my God, I thought Crystal wasjoking. I didn't expect her friend to be so rich. You're like a princess living in a castle. This place is sobeautiful.”She was rather forthright.Christina smiled awkwardly and nodded at her. “Hello.”You can live here at ease if you need anything just go and ask the servants for help.*Crystal was already very familiar with the Hopkins family. She led Emma straight to Easter Gardenthat also had guest teams there, but most of the guests #ved in Western GardenCrystal had lived with the Hopking family for a while, usually bring in Eastern Garden, so shenaturally walked to Eastern Garden Wale seeing that, Marwy Foang da not stop herHowever, I afused Mary's dissatistan“Who is wher“How can she live in Eastern Garden, and I have to live in Western Garden?”Mary disliked Western Garden. It was not because the scenery there was not good, but because shefelt living in Eastern Garden was the symbol of status.Crystal replied decently. “Then, how about we change rooms with you?”“No matter whether changing the rooms or not, it's not your turn to pretend to be a host here.”Mary hated losingthe initiative.“You haven't seen Christina for so many years. It's more convenient for you to build relationshipswith each other if you stay closer.”Nanny Faang was in a dilemma because of these uninvited guests.In the end, Crystal convinced Mary to change rooms with her, and this didn't even need the Hopkinsfamily’s permission.“I felt that Miss Zhu has changed a lot this time.” Nanny Faang couldn't help but say that whilegiving Christina the night snacks and drinks."What was Crystal like before?”“In the past, Miss Zhu was more reserved and not that outgoing.” Nanny Faang felt it was notappropriate for her to say much.Christina didnt think much about Crystal's sudden return. She just felt that an old friend wascoming to see her. There were so many rooms in the Hopkins family, so it didn't matter at all.However, Crystal and Mary exchanged rooms, which brought Christina a lot of trouble.Her mother lived in Eastern Garden, so sometimes she would rush straight into her master bedroomwithout knocking on the door, “I haven't seen you for so many years. If you have something on yourmind or feel unjustly treated, just let me know.”She came to talk to her every two or three days.Crystal didn't seem to have come back for no purpose, She made a request to her directly,“Christina, I want to see Brianna in person“She's in custody.”“I know, and that's why I want you to take me to see her,
