"Get out of here! It's all your fault!"
Christina's left cheek was red and swollen.
She was shocked and looked at the unfamiliar middle-aged woman who had slapped her, feeling complicated.
Her cheeks were burning with pain.
She lowered her head to hide her red eyes...
She was Patrick's mother.
"I...I just wanted to see him."
Christina straightened up and tried to speak ina calm tone.
"She's not allowed to come here! Kick her out."
His mother did not want to listen to Christina at all.
She shouted at the bodyguards with a gloomy face.
"Auntie, I brought her here."
Charles ran over from the stairs, panting and explaining in a hurry.
"Charles?"
Judy was angry to see Charles protecting her so- called daughter-in-law.
"Ask this woman to get out immediately.I don't want to see her."
Her tone was cold and her attitude was tough.
She was usually decent and elegant, but she was agitated because her only son was seriously injured and unconscious.
"Auntie, the car accident has nothing to do with Christina.She just came here to see..."
Charles comforted her with a soft voice.
In her forties, Judy was still charming.
She was a half- French and the top pianist when she was younger.
Besides her good figure and face, she had a graceful temperament.
Patrick looked a little similar to her.
"Charles."
A girl came out of the ward after hearing the noise.
She was wearing a university uniform, and her personality was a little restrained.
She called out to Charles in a low voice.
"Hello, sister-in-law.' Brianna blushed slightly and hid behind Judy, looking at Christina shyly.
"Brianna, she's not your sister-in-law.Don't call her like that!"
Judy looked up and down at Christina with a cold face and sharp eyes.
The corners of her lips curled up in disdain.
"How shameless you're! You bitch divorced Cory and then seduced and married Patrick..."
"Patrick hasn't had many women before, so you successfully coaxed him into marrying you.But don't feel at ease.There are many women who're willing to give birth to him.After Patrick wakes up, I'll ask him to divorce you.You make me disgusted -"
Her words were sharp and humiliating.
This was the first time Charles had heard Judy's harsh words.
"Auntie, it's Cory's fault! Christina is innocent..."
"Charles, why are you helping her? Patrick has never suffered such serious injuries.But he's now unconscious because of her! Who is she? Does she deserve Patrick's suffering?"
Judy became angrier and angrier.
"The dirty divorced woman must get out of here!"
Christina lowered her head and did not refute.
Her eyes were fixed on the man lying on the bed unconsciously with a respirator...
Charles was ina difficult situation.
The bodyguards of the Hopkinses had walked to them, ready to throw Christina out of the building.
Charles turned to look at the woman beside him and whispered, "Christina, you can come here later..."
But instead of leaving, Christina raised her head and looked directly into Judy's eyes.
"How is he now?"
She asked in a persistent tone.
"It's none of your business!"
Judy was not kind to her.
Charles knew that Christina was stubborn, but he worried that Judy would hurt her.
