My billionaire husband spoils me too much novel Chapter 417

"Patrick, don't you think it sounds a bit strange?"

Christina leaned in to ask him in a low voice. After they had finished the main meal, the waiter removed the plates from the table and served the desserts.

Patrick didn't reply and moved the mango pudding to her front, then he gave her a tender look as a hint that she could continue talking to him after finishing the pudding.

Mango pudding was Christina's favorite, so she began to enjoy it using a spoon although she was very full now.

"Well, frankly speaking, I feel that people from the Stephenson family were a little bit strange." She mumbled while eating.

At that time, Charles sat beside them and kept silent.

According to his observation, Patrick intentionally tempted Christina to eat more to make her gain weight. Charles guessed that maybe Patrick thought that Christina was too skinny and wanted her to be stronger.

Christina leaned over again and whispered to Patrick, "It seems that Chandler is too protective of Geoffrey. From my point of view, Chandler does not like Geoffrey's father."

Normally, Christina would be told to mind the table manner, but she was filled with excitement and joy recently that she totally forgot that she shouldn't talk while eating. Anyway, Patrick didn't mind.

The only thing that Patrick noticed was that Christina would get close to him and whisper to him now. Hearing her words, he smelled the fragrance of mango. Although Patrick was allergic to mangoes, he wasn't so disgusted at them now. He would kiss Christina if they were not having a meal with the Stephenson family at this point.

"Be cautious, or you will choke."

Patrick was not interested in the things about the Stephenson family. He was worried that Christina would choke.

Christina got used to the way in which Patrick talked to her, so she continued to speak in a low voice.

"For example, sometimes you play a trick on our son at home. However, Chandler is too kind to Geoffrey, he is close to Geoffrey but their relationship doesn't look like the relationship between you and our son. It's weird. Don't you think so?"

"What? Did you just say that I am bullying our son all the time?" Obviously, Patrick missed the point that Christina stressed.

Christina glanced at him. "You hid the baby's bottle of our little son yesterday and left him crying for such a long time. He refused to go to sleep without his bottle, and our elder son began to cry upon hearing his brother's crying. Do you want to deny it?"

Their sons had been crying for quite a while in the nursery of the Hopkins family yesterday. It was such a mess that the nurse and the maid had to spend a long time getting the twins to sleep.

Patrick remained calm and retorted, "I don't want our son to carry a baby's bottle all the time."

"Your son is only half a year old!"

Christina got angry with Patrick and she thought that he didn't shoulder his responsibility as a father.

During the meal, Chandler received a phone call and he said that he would go downstairs to pick up a friend. Senior Mr. Stephenson asked Patrick to leave with him to discuss some issues, so they began to rise from the chairs. Patrick brought a glass of kiwi juice to Christina before he left, "Drink it." He said to Christina.

Christina looked at Patrick's tall figure. Although she was annoyed and full of complaints, she chose to keep her mouth shut and drink the juice as he required.

As soon as Patrick left, Charles didn't remain silent anymore and then he edged closer to Christina.

Charles joked at her, "Christina, what were you talking about just now? Did you flirt with him or discuss what to eat for dinner?"

What he said was quite offensive and rude.

Christina knew that Charles and his friends had been making fun of her because she and Patrick once made a fool of themselves at dinner. Christina thought that Charles was annoying, "He should spend more time on his work." Christina thought angrily.

Charles sighed when he noticed that Christina didn't want to respond to him, "Christina, why can you marry such an excellent man? You are a lucky dog, aren't you? You are so lazy and stupid. It's totally unbelievable."

"You have so many girlfriends. Just take one home, ok? Stop nagging."

Christina was not polite to him at all.

Charles shot her an angry glance. However, he immediately behaved himself when he noticed that Patrick was glaring at him and observing them from the balcony.

Charles signed mysteriously, "Christina, I have my own difficulties."

He knew that it was not a good way to take a tough stance with Christina, and he'd better show his weakness to her for sympathy.

As he expected, Christina asked him in a gentle voice upon seeing his embarrassment, "What's the problem?"

"I have a chameleon at home."

Charles somehow mentioned his pet.

Christina stared at him in confusion. Charles sighed and then continued, "My mother warned that she would put the chameleon on my head if I take my girlfriend home."

"What? Why? " Christina was surprised.

Charles replied with self-deprecating humor, "My family firmly believes that the chameleon will definitely change color on my head if I bring my girlfriend home, which means that she has an affair with another man."

Christina burst into laughter.

"Why are you laughing out loud? Isn't it a sad story? Jesus."

Charles was very upset because he indeed regarded her as his close friend.

"I'm so sorry, Charles, forgive me. It's hilarious and I couldn't control myself." Christina was still laughing.

Christina doubled up with laughter when she realized that Charles was trying to hold back his anger and he didn't dare to fight back. She couldn't figure out why a cold and distant man like Patrick would make friends with such a fool like Charles.

"What are you talking about?" Crystal saw her laughing so happily and then asked curiously.

"Charles told me that he had a chameleon as his pet in his house."

Crystal couldn't understand what Christina said and then turned around to look at Charles, who was in a bad mood now.

Charles snorted angrily and he knew that Christina was laughing at him. However, he was very happy today, so he didn't want to take it seriously.

"I mean, I'm afraid that my wife will betray me and sleep with another man after our marriage."
