My billionaire husband spoils me too much novel Chapter 535

Chapter 535
It wasn’t until near noon when the kids were tired and the twins needed a nap that Christina left the
babys’ room.
“Did you say Geoffrey came to me?”
As soon as Christina walked out of the room, the maid reminded her again, “Geoffrey has been waiting for you in the living room of the Main Residence since three hours ago.”
“The little guy?”
Although she had some conflicts with the Stephenson family before, Geoffrey was just a child, so Christina went easy on him.
“Did Geoffrey sneak to the Hopkins family himself and look for me?”
Christina was surprised at the news from the servants.
As she quickened her pace, she complained, “Why didn’t you make it clear just now?”
She felt a little embarrassed to keep a child waiting.
The maid behind Christina lowered her head more, not daring to explain. Just now, when Christina heard Small call her mommy, she was so happy that she couldn’t hear anything.
The Hopkins family was very large. It could be regarded as a scenic spot if visitors strolled in a good mood. But visitors who were mentally restrained would feel antsy. The decorations and buildings here were extremely magnificent and the layout was so spacious that even a speech echoed.
Geoffrey, a six-year-old child, had waited for a few hours in the living room of the Hopkins family’s Main Residence.
Geoffrey sat on the sofa quietly with his little schoolbag in his arms. He straightened his back and did not even dare to look around. There was a glass of juice on the table. Besides, there was no servant to chat with him.
Because servants in the Hopkins family bit their lips as the rules.
When Christina strode in, two servants standing at the door of the Main Residence greeted, “Junior Mrs. Hopkins…”
Hearing it, Geoffrey immediately turned to look at her excitedly.
“Aunt Hopkins.”
Geoffrey finally saw an acquaintance. He quickly jumped off the sofa and ran towards Christina with his little schoolbag in his arms,
knowing that Geoffrey had been waiting for her innocently for a few hours, Christina felt very guilty. She squatted down to stay on a level with him and asked apologetically, “Geoffrey, did you come here alone?”
Although Geoffrey was only six years old this year, he was very smart. He had run away several times, and Chandler seemed to be used to his wandering around.
Geoffrey stood about half a meter in front of Christina. As if answering the teacher’s question, he spoke with great honesty.
“… My grandmother took me to school. After my grandmother left, I sneaked out of school. I had pocket money and took a taxi here.”
Christina could see that he was a little nervous. Standing upright, he spoke in a very sincere tone.
For a moment, Christina didn’t know what to say.
“What if your family is worried about you when you sneak out?” The school was probably busy looking for him.
As Christina spoke, she took out her phone from the pocket and was about to call Chandler.
“Aunt Hopkins, don’t tell my grandma and the others that I’m here.” Geoffrey looked at her eagerly with an awkward expression. Lowering his voice, he pleaded, “Aunt Hopkins, I’ll go back to school by myself.”
Geoffrey timidly tugged at the hem of Christina’s clothes.
Christina looked at him. She heard that Geoffrey had an operation for appendicitis a few days ago. Now he was a little pale and obviously thin. Seeing his look, Christina felt distressed.
“Then why did you come here to see me?” Christina asked him in compromise.
Geoffrey looked down at the tip of his foot, hesitating and not knowing what to say. He wrapped his blue schoolbag tightly with his small hands.
“… Can you help me call Aunt Zhu home?” His voice was timid, as if he had made a mistake and did not dare to speak loudly.
Christina was a little surprised.
Christina told him in an adult tone, It’s their adult business. You don’t have to…”
When Geoffrey heard her say so, he immediately became anxious and looked up. “I, I know… Aunt Zhu ran away because of me… I don’t live at home. I have lived with my mother.”
“Aunt Hopkins, can you help me call her home?” Geoffrey’s bright eyes held back the tears.
Christina didn’t know what to do for a moment.
“Crystal Zhu has her own ideas…” She felt that it was complicated to talk to a six-year-old child about adult relationships.
“Your father will discuss it with her. Don’t worry.” Christina wanted to reach out and pat him on the shoulder.
However, Geoffrey turned around and stubbornly lowered his head, obviously not listening to her persuasion.
Geoffrey muttered in a choked voice, “I’m not my father’s biological child. My biological father’s name is Mark.”
“Dad and mom have a bad relationship. They used to quarrel all day long. My dad always gave in to my mom but she was always dissatisfied. I know my dad is very unhappy. He doesn’t like the Stephenson family, doesn’t like my mom, and probably doesn’t like me anymore…”
At this point, Geoffrey cried out.
“… My dad likes Aunt Zhu, and I like Aunt Zhu, too.”
Geoffrey raised his little face covered in tears, and he pleaded in a choked voice, “Aunt Hopkins, can you help me call Aunt Zhu back? My father is so sad every day. I don’t want him to be so sad.”
Geoffrey sobbed, with tears shedding uncontrollably.
He seemed really helpless, anxious and flustered, trembling and crying.
Christina also panicked. She didn’t know how to comfort the child.
“… Actually, your father found out that Crystal was on a flight to France”…
Christina was so nervous that she told everything she knew.
“Crystal didn’t tell me much about it. She only said that she was going to France to learn to cook It. seemed that there were more than a dozen peers studying with her. Her living and lodging should be safe.”
“Although Aunt Zhu is usually timid and careful, she is considerate. You don’t have to worry too much. She also went abroad to study in college. She can take good care of herself.”
Christina really didn’t know how to comfort a child. In the end, she had to pick Geoffrey up and put him on the sofa. Then she found some tissues and put them in front of him, “Don’t cry.”
It seemed that Geoffrey couldn’t stop crying. He cried with his head down and held the tissue in his small hands without saying anything.
“… I really can’t get in touch with your Aunt Zhu, but don’t worry. I’ve already ordered to look for her, There’ll be news soon.”
Christina had already sent a message to Lucy, warning her sternly to give a quick hand.
“Actually, I also think your father cares about her…”
“Her pregnancy was an accident, as well as her miscarriage. There’s a lot of confusion… Your Aunt Zhu is like an ostrich. Faced with unsolvable problems, she will find a place to hide. You can’t force her now. When she is relieved and has a strong mind, she will take the initiative to speak out. The more you force her, the more uncomfortable she will be.”
Christina squatted anxiously in front of Geoffrey and kept talking. In the end, she began talking nonsense.
That afternoon, Chandler and Charles came to the Hopkins family together. They seemed to have known that Geoffrey was here. Considering the dignity of the child, they did not question why Geoffrey was so willful to run out of school secretly. Chandler held Geoffrey’s little hand, and then they got into the car and left.
Charles stayed and went to Patrick’s study.
“…. Geoffrey suddenly ran to Christina. The child was crying so sadly that he might have scared Christina. When I went in, I saw Christina trying her best to comfort him.”
Patrick was interested to hear it. He asked in a low voice, “What did Christina say?”
Charles made a sarcastic expression. “She was talking nonsense crazily.”
Patrick smiled when he heard it.
“… Geoffrey hasn’t cried much since he was born. It’s strange that the little guy has cried in front of Christina several times as far as I know. Christina has a special affinity with children and animals.”
Patrick was in a good mood and thought of his youngest son “Small doesn’t like to cry when seeing her.”
Charles also smiled. “What a little horror Small is!” Only his own mother could get him to beliave.
