Chapter 23
The rain had stopped.
Christina ate the steamed bums that Mrs. Morris and Mr. Morris had prepared for her. After thanking the enthusiastic couple, they wanted to rush back.
Because today is the New Year’s eve, everyone wants to go home and
reunite
Christina took a peek at Patrick. They had planned to go back to A City the day before yesterday to spend the New Year with Mr. Hopkins. They didn’t expect this to happen. It seemed that they had to hurry back. The Old Man had a bad temper.
But just as Christina was about to kave with them, Mr. Morris stopped her and said, “I think you had better stay here with us.”
**The torrential rain last night caused a mudslide that buried many farmlands and houses nearby. The surrounding residences were destroyed, making it harder to get through the mountain
Charles said with a rare seriousness, “Christina should stay. Now the hillsides will collapse at any time. The
flood hasn’t completely subsided. We’ll
send someone to pick her up when we get back. After all, Christina was
pregnant, she couldn’t exertherself too
much since she was still weak.
The few of them looked at each other
for a moment in sikence, and then they all looked at Patrick
Patrick took a look at Christina and suddenly strode to her. Without saying anything he held her hand and led her straight out the door.
“She’s with me.” Patrick only left a faint sentence.
Charles and the others looked at each other from Patrick’s cold profile, knowing that his decision would not change
“Then we are leaving now. Thank you so much for taking us in last night.”
Charles and the others finally exchanged a few words with Mr. and
Anna and followed them
“Patrick I think it would be better for Christina to stay for another night”
Charles and the others plodded upward, winding their way back and forth across the face of mountain with great difficulty. They also had to pay careful attention to the surrounding
mountains.
Patrick tightened his grip on her wrist as if he didn’t care about Charles’s
words. He looked around vigilantly and
led her forward step by step.
“She’s with me” He repeated again.
Patrick’s deep eyes fell on the woman’s face beside him. Only by keeping her
by his side would he be relieved.
Christina didn’t know what he was thinking. He held her too tight as her wrist hurt. She looked up at him and Said, “I. I can actually.”
“Christina, don’t even think about it!” Patrick said in a calm volce and immediately refuted.
Christina was depressed. Why was he so cold? She didn’t even finish her
words.
After walking for about half an hour, a shallow river three meters wide
appeared in front of them
Originally.
this river did not exist. It should form
from the large influx of the heavy rain
last night when the rainfall blew the mud from the hillsides,
“It was not too deep, about 30
centimeters. You can come over…” Someone had already stepped across the water
Christina watched them cross the shallow river in an orderly fashion, ready to follow.
However, she was suddenly carried by Patrick who turned around. Surprised at his movement, she screamed in shock, “Ah, what are you doing?”
Patrick saw that she was not at all at
ease as she kept struggling, and he angrily reminded her, “Do you forget the injury on your foot?”
She stopped struggling, blushed his stare. She almost forgot that her hand and foot were injured, and she might
have inflammation at the touch of
water
Patrick was 1.85 meters tall, had been practicing Muay Thai since he was young. He was very so strong that it was easy to carry her across this shallow river.
But Christina noticed, however, that Patrick took a firm grip on her legs, and he walked every step steadily even as if he was treading on eggshells.
This man seemed to take everything seriously. She looked at him with her eyes sideways. To be honest, he looked very handsome when he was focused.
“What are you looking at?”
Patrick lowered his eyes and noticed
that she was a little absent-minded, so
he asked casually
While Christina immediately turned her head away as if she had done something wrong. She replied, “Nothing”
However, as soon as she turned her head, her eyes widened as if she were extremely nervous, and her hand directly inched toward his crotch…
“Christina, what are you doing.”
The next second, Patrick’s cold face
froze, and he even stopped his way forward. He couldn’t believe that the
woman in his arms could not wait to
untie his belt.
When Charles and the others heard
Patrick’s surprised inhalation, they
and
were
all
turned around dumbfounded.
“Christina, don’t be so insatiable.”
Charles moaned at her angrily. In public, she untied the man’s belt, and the witch became rasher.
Patrick seemed to be startled by her sudden initiative and did not stop her.
Clap!
Christina ignored their strange expressions and pulled out the belt around Patrick’s waist. Without a
word, she quickly whipped down a fruit tree on the right
When Patrick and the others saw clearly, they noticed that there were
many green bamboo venomous Snakes on the trees in the orchard they were shuttling through
Just a meter or so, Christina hit its tender spot and it remained
motionless
“Put me down!”
They had already crossed the shallow river. Christina broke free from his arms and ran all the way to the snake. She picked up a big rock and threw it directly at the snake.
Seeing that the snake was completely
