She had been quite tired these days.
It was unknown that who would get the IP&G commercial until three days later.
Christina could only wait anxiously.
After rushing back from Hongkong by air to apartment 402, she fell asleep.
Her mind was in a mess and she had a mentality of escaping.
Who was Lucy? What if I couldn’t get the advertisement for IP&G? Why did you want me to participate in the advertisement audition? Why did you want me to stay away from Charles…
A lot of information and questions had been bothering her.
They became her nightmares.
These dreams were like a maze with no way out.
“Christina, don’t make me angry.”
“Don’t do what you shouldn’t do.Stay away from those men, because I don’t like it.”
She suddenly woke up and lay flat on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling above her.
She was very slow in reaction, and Patrick’s voice echoed in her mind.
His voice was low, deep, and a little angry, just like what it was when he got extremely angry with her previously.
She had dreamt about her life in the Hopkins family before.She actually missed it a little.She turned to look at the window.
It was so gray that she could not tell whether it was morning or evening.
“Achoo..”
The cold wind blew in.
She shrank and quickly got up.She took a thick coat and put it on her body.
Christina guessed that she had probably woken up by the low temperature.
She quickly closed the window.
When she looked down, she saw that the street lights in the neighborhood downstairs were all on.
It turned out that it was already evening.
They rushed back in the morning by air and returned to A City at about 8 a.m..
She was so tired that she forgot to turn on the heater.
Christina pulled out a few tissues to cover her nose and found she had caught a cold again.
“Christina, you caught a cold again!”
The phone showed that Crystal had called her at noon.
When she called back and just said hello, Crystal first questioned her angrily.
“Do you have a fever? Do you have any medicine at home?”
Christina listened to the loud question with her mind in a daze.She admired Crystal’s quick reaction.
It seemed that Crystal had got quite an imposing manner after she came to serve as a nanny at the Stephenson family for a few months.
Christina held an electronic thermometer in her left hand and stared at the temperature of 38.2 degrees shown on it.
She paused for two seconds and said, “I don’t have a fever”
“Don’t think I don’t know about it.You’re lying.”
Crystal refuted her angrily, “If you have a low fever, you should lower your temperature physically.Drink more hot water and rest more.If your temperature is over 39 degrees celsius, you should rush to the hospital immediately”
Christina was surprised even at the other side of the phone, but she refused to admit it, “I’m fine”
“Christina, you probably don’t know.Every time you lie, you sound very guilty.I really don’t know how you survived…You are just like that little bastard Geoffrey.”
Crystal complained about her.
Christina listened to her quietly.She felt that Crystal had changed and seemed to become mature.
“Crystal, you’re becoming more and more like a mother.”
Christina sighed with a heavy twang.
She remembered that Crystal’s change seemed to have started since she went to the Stephenson family.
So Christina cared about her best friend and asked, “Crystal, last time you said you wanted to quit.How are you now…”
There was some noise from the other side of phone.
“Aunt Zhu, I’m hungry”
It was the voice of that little guy Geoffrey.
Then Christina heard that Crystal gritted her teeth and asked, “I saw with my own eyes that you ate three pieces of pizza just now.How can you have the nerve to say you’re hungry? Since you are full, go aside and stay alone”
Children also had human rights, and he explained to Crystal in a childish voice, “But my stomach is hungry.It coos.If you don’t believe me, listen to it.It’s hungry.”
Crystal glanced at his round belly and sulked, “That’s because you have been stuffed”
“Christina, what did you just say to me?” Christina felt speechless.
She hung up the phone in silence.
Geoffrey was pestering Crystal to play tricks on her.
It seemed that it was not easy for Crystal to resign.Crystal was very good at taking care of people.
“Crystal must be a good mother.”
Inexplicably, Christina was a little depressed.
If it were her, she really didn’t have the confidence to be a good mother.She was the only one in this small apartment.
