My billionaire husband spoils me too much novel Chapter 521

"There must be a misunderstanding."

"Christina will never add saffron to my bird's nest soup."

In the hospital, Crystal needed to be hospitalized for prenatal care because of weakness.

Chandler said that the reason why she almost had a miscarriage was that the bird's nest, sea cucumber, and fish gelatin Christina bought for her was mixed with saffron powder.

She felt a chill in her back at the thought that she had been eating these things for the past few days.

"... Fortunately, these dried goods need to be soaked and rinsed many times, or else you will eat more." Chandler had ordered people to keep all the "Evidence" properly and discuss it after Patrick returned from a business trip.

Chandler knew Christina, who was not the kind of vicious women. He was sure that it was not Christina's idea, but he had to take it seriously since it involved the safety of Crystal and the baby.

"... Crystal, for the safety of you and the baby, stay in the hospital. I'll find a quiet and comfortable place for you to stay at. Don't go back to Christina's place."

Crystal hesitated when he heard this. "But, this is definitely not Christina..."

Chandler poured out half a bowl of lean porridge and served it to her. "Don't overthink. Patrick and I will figure it out. Now you just need to try to fatten yourself up and give the baby more nutrition, okay?" he said in a gentle voice.

Crystal looked at him and nodded in agreement.

She knew that Chandler, reserved as he was, would take responsibility without hesitation once he accepted her. Just like at this moment, he was really concerned about her and the baby in her belly.

"... Mrs. Shepherd spoke in a sacarstic tone just now." The door of the ward was pushed open, and Mrs. Pei looked a little embarrassed. She brought in a cup of chicken soup.

"Mom."

Crystal sat on the bed and greeted upon seeing her.

Mrs. Stephenson looked at her and grunted.

"This is the chicken soup for you. Your father bought at the market early this morning and cooked it for hours."

"Thank you, mom."

Mrs. Stephenson motioned for Chandler to pour out some chicken soup to cool down before drinking it. Then she sat by Crystal's bed and said in a gentle voice, "Crystal, you suddenly went to the hospital last night. Your father and I don't know anything. Don't blame us."

"Don't say that. I'm fine. There's no need to bother you guys."

Crystal's face was still a little weak and pale, but she forced a smile.

As for the reason why she was hospitalized, Chandler did not tell his parents in detail, nor did he mention that saffron was found in Christina's tonics. Now more was better than less.

Mrs. Stephenson, on the other hand, didn't seem to have much enthusiasm to ask the reason. She said politely, "It's good that you're fine."

But then, Mrs. Stephenson asked again, "By the way, did Christina tell Mrs. Shepherd anything last night?" She seemed to be concerned about this more.

Crystal was just about to give her a perfunctory response.

However, Mrs. Stephenson frowned and continued, "Crystal, I know you're not a big talker. Maybe it was because your father and I didn't come to the hospital in time to see you last night... I don't know what Christina said to Mrs. Shepherd. Just now, Mrs. Shepherd called me personally. She sounded like I was some kind of vicious mother-in-law..."

Mrs. Stephenson, as a famous professor, her reputation was also enhanced. She was respected by the students. She had her pride, but just now she was taught a lesson like Mrs. Shepherd, which made her feel aggrieved.

Her words left Crystal wordless. Mrs. Stephenson never let it go, because Christina hit Chandler in a fit of anger. Although she also felt sorry for her husband, Christina was doing this for her sake, so she naturally could not say anything.

"Mom, actually, Christina..."

"Forget it. Don't mention her anymore," Mrs. Stephenson sighed... "Our family does everything open and above board. They can say whatever they want. We are not afraid of them."

"By the way, Crystal, we didn't force you to give up this baby when we discussed it with you. It came all of a sudden."

Crystal immediately became nervous. "Mom, if you're afraid that Geoffrey won't be able to accept my child, I'm willing to stay outside and not go back to the Stephenson family."

Having gone through the experience of almost losing her baby last night, she took her baby as everything of her.

Mrs. Stephenson comfortingly stroked her soft hair and said kindly, "Don't be so nervous. We're a family... Since we've decided to keep this child now, you should take good care of yourself and give birth smoothly. The Stephenson family will certainly be able to raise a child."

Crystal was touched to hear that "We are a family." She was about to say something that she would be filial to elders and take care of her child.

But at this moment, Mrs. Stephenson added in a serious tone, "Crystal, Geoffrey is the eldest grandson and the first successor of our family. I hope you can also treat Geoffrey as your own child. Be nice to him, okay?"

Crystal's expression froze in an instant.

She turned her face slightly to avoid looking at Mrs. Stephenson and nodded. "Okay."

Mrs. Stephenson immediately smiled with satisfaction, "The Stephenson family is so lucky to have a such a kind daughter-in-law as you. You're so considerate. I'm sure everything will go well in our family."
