"I see..I"

"Then I'll see you at the hotel,"

Christina said anxiously as she was about to hang up.

"Patrick, remember to come earlier."

The man on the other end of the phone was startled by her nervous tone.

"Hum"

One 'Hum' was counted as a promise.

Christina looked at her phone, which had been hung up.

Her expression became a little gloomy.

What? We had decided to come to F City together, but they all wanted to break the promise...

"Young Madam, this is the suite that was arranged for you.Is there anything you are not satisfied with?"

The hotel manager, who had been standing quietly on the other side, after seeing Christina's call was over, came over to ask in a soft voice, "If you need anything, you can tell me directly. Mr.Shepherd asked us to prepare some soup for you. What kind of taste do you like..."

"Never mind. I'm not hungry now" Christina took her room card and went straight in.

This was the best hotel in F City, and suite 10008 on the top floor was the best room here.

It was exquisite and luxurious, but she didn't have any requirements for a room.

She just felt the room was too big and cold.

Charles brought her here and left without telling her where did he go.

Patrick was still in A City, saying he would be late for seeing her.

"Young Madam, you could rest first. If you need anything, please call the service number.We have someone on duty 24 hours a day..."

Naturally, the female manager did not dare to belittle her.

Even though she was the proprietress of their hotel herself, she was still supposed to politely speak to the guest and carefully close the door.

The suite was quiet and was full of a faint lavender scent, leaving the impression of being clean and comfortable.

The flight made Christina a little tired, so she went straight to bed to rest.

She put her phone on the bedside table and checked the volume of the phone in order to hear Patrick's phone call.

It was in the late summer season, so she slept deeply By the time she woke up naturally, the setting sun had already fallen from the French window, and the night had just begun.

F City's pace of life was slower than A City's, and the air quality and environment were good.

It was once ranked as the top ten most suitable cities to live in.

But Christina didn't like F City very much.

When she was young, she was very courageous.

She had sneaked into this city many times, but it didn't leave her with any good impression.

The first time she came over, she lay on the edge of the grass and saw Mrs. Fisher lock Derek into the trunk with her own eyes.

The second time she came over, she looked for Derek for a long time and was dejected to come home when she noticed that Derek was locked up in Mrs. Fisher's dirty storage room. He had been hungry all day, and he didn't even have the strength to speak due to his high fever.

The third time, Mrs. Fisher raised the heavy pole and hit him, but Derek stood lifeless.

He was beaten violently, but he did not cry out in pain.

Only his little body was trembling.

That time, she couldn't hold back and rushed over.

She grabbed Derek and ran as fast as she could, hiding in a small corner.

"I've never seen anyone as stupid as you, standing straight like a pillar after being beaten...Stupid! You could just run when you're beaten!"

She was so angry that she hated the clean and delicate boy standing in front of her.

Therefore, Derek had a unique nickname, Eric(a little pillar).

Christina got out of bed, grabbed her phone, walked to the window, and looked at the bright lights downstairs.

It was a long time ago.

"I haven't seen him for so many years... How is he now?"

Time could completely change a person, and Derek couldn't be the weak and autistic Eric back then.

The phone suddenly vibrated, and Christina immediately looked down to check.

It wasn't from Patrick.

It was Crystal who sent her a WhatsApp message.

"Pig Is Rising": [ Christina, I was a little nervous on my first business trip with a senior executive. Now I'm at a hotel in F City, waiting for a big client.]

"Invincible Tina": [ which hotel are you in? ]

After a while, Crystal sighed, "This is fate."

Sure enough, Christina's guess was right.

Barbara chose the same hotel, but they were downstairs in a private room.

"Pig Is Rising": [I didn't see the big boss at the airport just now.Christina, why did you come to F City? Your suite must be very big and luxurious. What about we have an affair tonight(jokingly)...] "Invincible Tina": [ Then I'll ask Patrick later.]

Crystal had no guts.

She did not dare to be jealous about Christina's presidential suite anymore.

However, Crystal found out some gossip to share with her best friend by sending her a mysterious message.

"Christina, do you know why Barbara could get that position when she's still so young?"

"Invincible Tina": [ Not interested.]

Christina didn't like Barbara very much.

There was no reason, but she didn't like her.

"Pig Is Rising": [ Barbara becomes a top manager when she just came into the headquarters, which triggered a lot of questions. And she often mingled with your husband, Charles, and other businessmen.Aren't you really not curious about this woman who was so ordinary before...]

"Invincible Tina": [ Patrick is not having an affair with her.]

She was sure of that. Her trust in her husband surprised Crystal as she often suspected her boss before.

Well...she must be bewitched by Patrick's handsomeness.

However, Crystal agreed with her.

[ Barbara is not having an affair with your husband.I heard from them that Barbara is the prospective daughter-in-law of the Fishers...]

[ Her boyfriend is said to be very influential socially. No wonder he could get into Charles's circle.It turns out that Barbara is Derek's girlfriend.] Christina was stunned and stared at words on her phone.

"..Impossible."
