They used to accompany Patrick on business travels all the time. Although Partick was naturally indifferent, they were used to it and dared to converse and jest in low voices in the cabin. But, all of a sudden, the so-called Mrs. Hopkins appeared. On this excursion, everyone seemed wary and didn't dare act freely.
"Mrs. Hopkins is actually such a woman." Her demeanor was a little different than they had anticipated.
After a long and tedious flight, the group of business leaders couldn't help but chat.
"Why are you in such a foul mood with a gloomy expression, Linda?"
A product director quipped that Linda should be secretly pleased because she was the only female colleague on this trip, and being on a work trip with Patrick was a rare opportunity.
"I simply think that the world is unjust. It's just that some people's morals don't align with their actions."
Linda's statements had an implication. She cast a sidelong glance in Christina's way.
"Linda, you just got promoted. You're still young."
The man's eyes gleamed with mockery.
"You shouldn't talk about this thing. Otherwise, keeping your job will be challenging. Do you know how Barbara ended up at that branch? Ha ha ha."
Linda was taken aback. This was the first time she'd heard of it. As expected, the company's top executives were astute and kept their mouths shut about the thing.
"Did Christina compel her to leave?"
Linda had a negative opinion of Christina.
"I don't dare ask that question too clearly. Barbara was an alumna of Mr. Hopkins. I heard she visited the Hopkins household frequently and went shopping with Mr. Hopkins' mother. She was likewise capable at work, but what did she stand to gain in the end? The corporation handed her an order that she could only go to the branch. No one would pity her for losing years of youth."
"Linda had been defeated. So, what are your thoughts on Christina, the Hopkins family's young lady? How can we talk about this?"
As a show of support, the senior product director clapped her on the shoulder.
"As a friend, I advise you not to be stupid. All of your years of hard work can be reduced in vain by a single word from someone. We simply cannot afford it."
Linda originally was the sole woman on this business trip at the time, but now that Christina had arrived. Therefore, Linda was in charge of all the food, clothing, lodging, and transportation for them on this trip.
Linda morphed from a businesswoman to a butler who accompanied her. She was furious, but she didn't dare to express her displeasure.
"I don't want your secretary to assist me in making purchases. I can purchase them on my own." Christina, too, was dissatisfied.
Patrick smiled and picked up a red lace bra as they got to the motel where they were scheduled to rest. Christina's style wasn't like this.
He turned to face his enraged wife, who was seated near the bed and said. "You're going to look great in it."
"No way! This vivid red color bothers me."
"Didn't you dress up in various red dresses when you were a kid?"
"How did you know that?" She was taken aback, then enraged. "My father and grandfather always made me dressed as a red envelope."
With a smile on his face, Patrick's tedious work trip turned into a lot of fun because of her. He mentioned something unexpected after looking at a lot of images and videos from her youth. "In fact, you look great without any clothing on."
Christina was speechless with him.
She wanted to giggle while pressing her anger at the man's obscene statements.
"You are not permitted to dally with me during your business travel. Don't take off my clothes, I'm telling you. I don't want to put on that red one!" The two adults chased each other in the enormous suite, and Christina was ultimately pressed to bed.
"This one is definitely not for you. The size is insufficient." Patrick took a close look at his wife.
"Do you think I'm fat?"
She flung a pillow at him.
"Growing some flesh is good for you."
