Chapter 743Patrick said straightforwardly, “I'll get someone to do what you want right now.”Raphael had mentioned earlier that he wanted to ask the large amount of cash and property sharesthat Derek had given Christina back, but she refused.Raphael said with contentment, “Actually, I can keep staying in Hopkins family.”“Those assets belong to Derek, and you have every reason to get them.” Patrick now wished hecould drive this man away immediately.The next day, Christina, who heard from Nanny Faang that Raphael was leaving the Hopkins family,asked in surprise, “Is he leaving?”Unlike Derek, Raphael had no other relatives. Where was he going?However, with Raphael's strange temper, it didn't seem strange for him to leave suddenly.However, Nanny Faang sighed, “I don't know what happened. Suddenly, he left early in themorning.”Raphael was favored for his good looks. Nanny Faang and all the females in Hopkins family weredeeply attracted by him. While they were free, they couldn't help peeking at him from time to time.“Patrick, why did he suddenly leave? He's not going back to the island, is he?” Christina asked. Shewas used to looking for Patrick if something was bothering her.Patrick's face was complicated. He was sitting at the big desk in the study, reviewing a document.He looked up at her and thought for a while, then said, “I drove him away with the money.”Christina was in a daze for a moment.At night, she saw Raphael on the headline. After consulting the news carefully, she was pissed off.Angrily, she went to Patrick and scolded, “You! Did you return the money to him?”Patrick had been back for a while, but he did not show up at the company. He had been staying inthe Hopkins family. He was casually working on some project documents in the study.“Derek worked so hard to save it. How could you give it all to him?”Christina grabbed a large thick of books from the bookshelf and slapped it on the table, whichshocked the servants passing by outside. As they expected, Christina and Patrick had a fall againafter a short makeup. They hurried up and stayed away from the scene.“Patrick, you're holding a candle to the devil!” she shouted, leaning closer to him.Patrick was aware that their best way to deal with women when they lost their temper was to remainsilent.Christina glared at him, waiting for him to say something!“Take a look!” She patted her phone, which had been soaked in water countless times, on his desk.She pointed to a piece of hot news on the screen and raised her voice. “Look at what Raphael hasdone all these days!”Christina said sadly, “What a bustard. He lost all the money that Derek had saved so hard.”Patrick glanced at the news, slightly surprised. Raphael invested all the 2 billion dollars on Derek'saccount on an unpromising stock.He didn't feel uncomfortable at all squandering others’ money.Christina expected him to say how to recover the unfinished portion of the real estate, but Patricksaid casually, “Derek actually didn’t work that hard to earn this money.”Her face was livid.She was speechless, thinking that they were not talking about the same same.She snapped, “It's best to lose everything. It's time for him to experience the hardships of the realworld. I will never help him!”Raphael made the headlines for the recent issues. The major media were very enthusiastic about thenews of this mysterious tycoon, and whether there was any gossip about him. In this way, they paidless attention to Patrick and Charles.“Raphael, you guys must have heard about what he had done recently. Good for him.”Gary and his friends were having a party at the club with Christina invited. These guys had stronglybelieved that she was Patrick's wife.Christina said with a sullen face, “He spent Derek's money.”"He was so unlucky to have something to do with Raphael.” Although everyone sympathized withDerek, they couldn't help laughing.Lucy was the only one sitting by the side drinking a large glass of tombstone wine. She said toherself, “That's good. This could spice up Derek's life.”“Lucy, you seem to know him very well. When did you get to know him so well?"Lucy said truthfully, “I helped boss investigate his love rival a long time ago. I actually knoweverything about him.”Christina was curious and wanted to ask her a few more questions, but there was a commotion atthe door, which attracted their attention."Hey! Chandler, what do you mean?”“Crystal is a good girl. How can you take her hand and hold her waist... How dare you kiss her infront of us?”Crabbie was hateful to see others showing affection in public. He had been single for 32 years, afterall. How could Chandler, the heartless man get happiness so quickly?Alan echoed, “Crystal, take a closer look at me. Actually, I'm much cuter than Chandler. Open youreyes wider.”Crystal blushed and tried to get rid of Chandler's hand, but Chandler didn't let her. He insisted onholding her hands."We're going to remarry,” Chandler announced.Alan snorted, “Shameless!”Scott, who had been impatient and loyal, thumped his chest and roared, “Chandler, you're wishfulthinking. Did you break your head on the island? Didn't you see how many outstanding men wehave here? How could Crystal fall in love with you again? Listen, we've been through life and deathtogether at least with Crystal. We're friends. Don't try to force her.”Charles also smiled, “Crystal, congratulations. You get so many brothers overnight.”Crystal, embarrassed, wanted to laugh.Only Christina and Lucy were clear that Crystal and Chandler were unable to control their feelingstowards each other when they were on the boat. It was estimated that the time they spent on theisland made them understand what was true love."She's too good for Chandler,” sighed Lucy. The Stephenson family and Chandler didn't leave her agood impression.She was used to being free. She felt a chill at the thought that if she was as humble as Crystal toanother family. She found marriage troublesome.Christina had no thoughts about the remarriage of Crystal and Chandler. She was supportive as longas they were happyShe suddenly asked, “Lucy, have you ever thought about getting married?”Lucy stopped drinking and turned to look at her as if she were an idiot.Christina felt that this question was a little stupid. She chuckled and asked, “Then what kind of guydo you like?” After thinking about it, she immediately added, “Or girls.”She thought that a tough person like Lucy wouldn't answer such a boring question. Unexpectedly,she did some thinkingWhat kind of person did she like?“Slave,” Lucy replied.Christina was lost for words."A servant?”Lucy explained seriously, “Yes, a slave who washes and cooks for me, and massages me.”There was no such person.Christina laughed and realized that the question she asked was indeed boring.
