"Christina, did you betray me?" Lucy sounded angry on the other end of the phone.
Christina, who was still lying in bed lazily with her phone in her hand, called Lucy for advice. Surprised by Lucy's yelling just now, she could feel her mind get soberer.
"I didn't."
"Wasn't Patrick suspicious when you tried so hard to please him last night? Did he think you were possessed by a devil?"
Christina recalled what had happened last night. Patrick clung to her tightly, whispering in a magnetic, hoarse voice. "Why are you so sweet tonight? Did you discover something? What happened?" Christina could still feel his warm breath seducing her to tell him the truth.
"I didn't betray you. I promise."
Fortunately, Christina was determined enough to resist Patrick's charm.
Lucy told Christina about how Patrick had failed to win Christina's heart in high school, which wasn't a pleasant memory to him. If he knew Christina had been aware of this during sex, he would definitely torture her even harder.
"Patrick thought everything I did last night was because I wanted him to help me deal with the trouble I caused."
Lucy was convinced by this reasonable answer.
Christina's muffled voice came through the phone. "Why does he always suspect I will cause trouble? Am I a troublemaker to him?"
"Well, ask your conscience about this. He has to clean up the mess for you every time you cause trouble." Strictly speaking, it was Lucy and the others, employees of Patrick, who had to clean up the mess.
Patrick had been abusing them in the past!
Therefore, Lucy raised her voice and shouted at the phone. "Christina, what advantages do you think you have?"
Then she snorted, whose arrogant tone got Christina thinking in silence nervously.
Patrick was better than her in all respects. In an instant, Christina's heart was filled with shame, guilt, and anxiety, but she drove them away at once and retorted loudly. "I believe everyone was born with his or her own talent!"
"What? Do you realize the importance of treating Patrick nicely now?"
"Well, you don't want to cry in regrets when he chooses a vixen over you one day, do you?"
"Unfortunately, Christina, you're useless. You can't take good care of him in daily life, and you are just an idiot when it comes to business. What advantages do you have, Christina?"
Lucy spoke to her at a deliberately slow pace with sarcasm.
Irritated by her words, Christina sat up immediately with her teeth gritted. Although she felt an urge to argue with her, she had to admit the fact that what Lucy said was true.
In the end, she let out a sigh. "What should I do?"
A healthy marriage needed efforts from both sides. Christina felt insecure, considering Patrick was more powerful and wealthy and obviously in a higher position in the family than her. There was nothing she could do if Patrick fell in love with another woman one day.
Christina tried to change the situation but didn't know what to do.
