My billionaire husband spoils me too much novel Chapter 477

Recently, the atmosphere in the Hopkins family was a little awkward mainly because Christina had a grim expression and didn't comprise to anyone.

But after Christina came back from outside tonight, she looked more worried and absent-minded at dinner in the Main Residence.

It was as if she was worried about another thing and had no time to take into account the resentment towards the Hopkins family.

Nobody spoke at the dinner table. Patrick came back to have dinner with the family tonight. He suddenly said, "I will bring the twins back to Eastern Garden..."

Senior Mr. Hopkins, who was sitting in the master seat frowned and looked at Patrick discontentedly.

The others at the same table all looked at Patrick at the same time, waiting for his following words.

But before Patrick could finish speaking, Christina stood up hurriedly. She didn't seem to have heard what Patrick said and appeared to be in a hurry, "Take your time. I'll go back to my bedroom first."

After saying that, Christina strode away from the table, ignoring the dining etiquette.

Judy looked at Christina's back with displeasure. But As the hostess of the Hopkins family, she knew more about etiquette and did not scold her. Everyone was staring at their life in the rich family all the time. What happened in their family would be known to others even if nobody said it.

Sure enough, Senior Mr. Hopkins showed a serious expression when he saw Christina leave the table in such a hurry.

Patrick didn't continue.

The atmosphere at the table suddenly became a little depressing. The old butler was disappointed with Christina because she did not care about Patrick's feelings at all. Christina was indeed incompatible with the Hopkins family.

Christina ignored their rules. The only thing she thinking about was to figure out what was going on with the French documents that Derek had given her.

She was good at English and Arabic but didn't know French at all.

"Where's Eric?"

With the document bag in her hand, Christina rushed back to Eastern Garden while making a phone call.

Larry answered the phone, "He's asleep... What's the matter with him?"

"I gave Peter the document bag that Derek asked me to take away when we are in the hospital last time, but Peter said it wasn't the company document... Did Derek take the wrong document or something?"

Christina said with unconscious tension.

"If it's not an official document, it should be for you." Larry's voice was a little cold.

Although he didn't know what the document was, at least it was impossible for Derek to take the wrong document. Derek must have done it on purpose.

"Ask Eric to answer the phone. I want to ask him what documents he gave me. He knows that I hate French the most, and he still got me the French contracts..."

The more Christina thought about it, the more strange she felt.

"Derek was in a bad condition today and he needs a good sleep. He told me not to disturb him tonight... You can ask him tomorrow morning."

Hearing that Derek had been in poor health recently and was already asleep, Christina thought it was not appropriate to disturb him.

Christina forced herself to say patiently, "I see. I'll come tomorrow morning."

She had to immediately understand the contents of these French contracts. She rushed back to the bedroom and turned on her computer to find some online translations. But these French documents were really troublesome because they involved privacy and can't be read by outsiders. She irritably searched every keyword online and tried to understand the general meaning.

"Should I ask Patrick for help?" Such an idea flashed through Christina's mind.

Patrick was good at French, and if Derek needed to find doctors, Patrick would definitely be able to help.

But that day at the hospital, Derek obviously interrupted her, indicating that he didn't want Patrick to interfere.

Derek was especially stubborn since he was a child.

Thinking of this, Christina decided not to tell Patrick. After all, this was Derek's decision. She continued to bury herself in the pile of documents and focused on translating the French she hated most all night.

On the other side, Patrick went straight back to the study after dinner and was busy in the study all night.

In fact, at dinner, he wanted to say that he would let Christina take care of the twins so that she didn't have to go to work outside and could reduce the conflict with the Hopkins family.

"Derek..." Patrick sat back in his chair holding his pen. His deep eyes filled with mixed emotions.

He had a hidden sense of guilt towards Derek but he could not say it to Derek, nor could he say it to anyone.

That year, he and Derek were good friends. There were so many people trying to please Patrick, but he took the initiative to make friends with this autistic and talented illegitimate child of the Fisher family.

Derek was really smart. Apart from his outstanding appearance, his logical way of thinking often surprised Patrick.

Because of the strict education in the Hopkins family and the memories of his mother, Judy, betraying his father, Patrick had a deep dislike of women since he was a child.

Even though he was 22 years old that year, he had no experience in the relationship between men and women.

In his subconscious mind, business marriage was the best way to choose a partner.

The marriage did not require any emotional foundation but only required women to be loyal and give birth to an heir, even if they got divorced after that.

But that day, when he came back from abroad, he heard that Derek was near a college in C City. He was about to look for Derek, but he met Christina instead.

Christina was seventeen years old that year. She suddenly jumped down from a big tree and appeared in front of Patrick, throwing herself at him.

Christina appeared in Patrick's life before he could make any psychological preparation.
