My billionaire husband spoils me too much novel Chapter 459

When Patrick returned home after a week's business trip abroad, he know that a conflict had happened at home. The arrogant and domineering Lassie's foot was fractured by a heavy object and she asserted that Christina had hurt her.

"Why didn't anyone tell me about it?"

Patrick went straight back to the Eastern Garden. Impatient, he took off his coat and asked Nanny Faang in a cold and reproachful tone.

Nanny Faang had a guilty expression and did not explain.

Nanny Faang had taken care of Patrick since he was a child. Compared to Patrick's biological mother, Nanny Faang cared more about him. Patrick would show respect to her in everything, but Nanny Faang had exceeded what was proper this time.

A dozen servants working in the Eastern Garden lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound. Patrick sternly glanced at them with grimness in his eyes.

"In the future, there is no need for grandpa and the others to interfere in the affairs of the Eastern Garden. If you think that grandpa and my mother's decision should be given priority, then pack up and work in the Northern Garden or the Main Residence. You are not needed here."

The servants panicked. They didn't expect Patrick to get angry as soon as he came back.

There was fixed staff working in all positions in the Hopkins family. If they left the Eastern Garden, the only result would be that they were fired. None of them wanted to lose their jobs. It was not easy for them to get the jobs, which needed to beg the Hopkins family.

Nanny Faang took the lead to promise, "Mr. Hopkins, it will never happen again."

Patrick had no intention of punishing the servants. Even if he had always been strict with them, as long as they could promise not to do it again, he would simply stop pursuing it.

"Did Christina go to the company?"

He went upstairs and didn't see Christina just now. Patrick guessed that she had gone to work again.

Nanny Faang reported truthfully, "Junior Mrs. Hopkins has rarely gone to the company these days. She went to a friend's home." Christina often visited a friend these days, but Nanny Faang didn't know her friend's name.

Patrick's first thought was that she went to find Crystal. After all, Christina had rare friends. Her life circle was very simple, and Patrick had deliberately prevented her from meeting so many messy people.

But when Patrick called Christina, a low and hoarse male voice came over the line.

Patrick's expression froze instantly.

"Chubby is washing clothes." Derek looked at the caller ID and knew it was Patrick. He pressed the answer button and spoke bluntly.

Hearing Derek's voice, Patrick didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Christina's complaining voice came over the line. "Derek, how long has it been since you washed your clothes? You only wear new clothes every day. Look at this shirt. It costs hundreds of dollars but you threw it into garbage bags after wearing it once. Why not hire an hourly worker..."

"And when did these curtains and sheets become so dirty? Wasn't you a neat freak? Hurry up and help me clean them up!"

Then Derek raised his head dully and answered, "Okay."

He threw the phone back to the table although it was still on the line. Derek completely ignored the call and got up to help with the housework.

Patrick tightened his grip on the phone, and his expression gradually became gloomy. However, he could still hear the voices of Derek and Christina…

"Derek, What do you want now? You don't allow Larry into your apartment yet. Do you want me to deal with these? You're the most troublesome with so many quirks." Christina said angrily.

"Ask Larry to bring us afternoon tea and snacks. I'm hungry!"

"Okay." Derek was dilatory.

After a long time, Patrick hung up the phone without changing his expression.

Nanny Faang did not understand what had happened, but she noticed that Patrick was in a worse mood than before.

She asked cautiously, "Shall I ask a driver to pick her up?"

"No."

Patrick spoke in a cold voice.

The servants in the Eastern Garden were in a panic all afternoon. They looked up at the clock on the wall from time to time, hoping that Christina would come back as soon as possible.

Christina knew the rules of the Hopkins family. No matter how reluctant she was, she would rush back before 7 pm.

As soon as Nanny Faang saw Christina, she immediately told Christina that Patrick had rushed back from abroad at noon.

Christina immediately checked her call. Of course, there was a call from Patrick.

"I went to Derek's apartment to help clean up. He's very unreasonable. No outsiders are allowed in. His room is so messy that he can't clean them up alone."

When Christina went to the study, she saw Patrick. Instead of showing affection to him at the long-awaited reunion, Christina reported her itinerary to him as a routine.

She felt that there was no affair between her and Derek.

Patrick sat at his desk and continued to flip through the documents.

Seeing that Patrick ignored her, Christina thought for a moment and explained, "Maybe when you called me this afternoon, I was too busy to hear you. You don't have to be angry."

Christina knew Derek's character. If Derek noticed that there was a call, he would ignore it directly.

"Did I say I was angry?" Patrick stood up from the chair and stared at her.

Christina did not answer his question because of his depressing tone.

"How dare he say that he is not angry in such an unpleasant tone!" Christina thought.

She had a lot of pent-up depression these days. "I just went out to visit Derek. There is no need for you to be so unpleasant because we didn't do anything. It is nonsense to talk about married women and single men. Do you want me to recite the wifely submission and virtue? I'm too bored at home all day long. I don't want to be called a parasite..."

Patrick's expression was even gloomier. He stepped forward and asked Christina coldly, "Who called you parasite?"
