“Where’s Christina?”
At seven o’clock in the evening, the Hopkins family were chattering and laughing around the dining table, waiting for the dinner to be served.
Nanny Faang and other maids brought the dishes methodically, which were more sumptuous than usual, and later put a three-layered cake on the table.
However, everyone’s face changed because of Brianna’s question.
Today was Brianna’s birthday.
Chandler and Charles were also invited.
Senior Mr.Hopkins thought that too many bad things had happened to the Hopkins family recently and he hadn’t even celebrated his eightieth birthday, so today was a good chance to lighten the mood a bit.
Brianna looked around in her seat and found one person missing.She’d hesitated for a long time before asking that question.
No one knew how to answer her.
Brianna was autistic and simple-minded.
Senior Mr.Hopkins, who was wearing a smart suit especially for today’s occasion, took on a gloomy face due to Brianna’s question.
“It doesn’t matter.”
Judy darted her daughter a glare.
Her demure aura just made her voice colder.
“She’d off-limits in this family.”
Brianna flinched a little because of her mother’s sharp tone.
She wanted to say something but didn’t have the courage.
Like a kid who did something wrong, she lowered her head, looking uneasy and nervous.
“Brianna, Brianna was just asking.I’ll talk to her later”
Barbara was on the table too and chimed in with a smile to smooth things over.
“Christina left the house herself that night.She killed the baby of the Hopkins family.We looked after her so carefully when she was pregnant.Has she done anything for the Hopkins family? A woman like that doesn’t deserve to stay,”
Judy said morosely as if she really abominated Christina.
“No, Christina said she wouldn’t leave…”
Brianna snapped her head up abruptly and retorted unthinkingly.
