"Patrick hates the sound of the piano and women...I don't think you know more about him than I do."
Barbara looked at her with a habitual smile.
After a pause, she kindly reminded Christina, "But, Christina, I think you'd better not ask him, lest you have a quarrel again..."
Hearing that, Christina compressed her lips silently.
Staring at Barbara, Christina could clearly see the slight smugness on her face.
Christina did not answer, so Barbara suddenly looked nervous and stepped forward half a step.
"Christina, are you angry? Please don't.I just wanted to remind you...Because I am afraid that no one will tell you this."
Barbara's tone sounded quite sincere.
Christina remained silent and frowned.
Suddenly, she could not tell whether Barbara was sincere.
Christina could not act like her, nor could she learn how to pose the fake smiles from the workplace.
"Thank you."
In the end, Christina thanked Barbara softly, but her tone was a little stiff.
As Barbara had expected, no one would tell Christina anything about him, let alone the fact that Patrick's mother, Judy, had cheated on her husband, and Patrick had seen it at a young age.
Christina didn't want to talk about it anymore, so she turned around and walked past Barbara into the restaurant.
"Christina, you don't have to be too depressed..."
As Christina brushed past Barbara, Barbara's eyes were flashing with mixed emotions.
She looked at Christina's back.
Then, she said so with sincerity.
"Although Patrick has always hated women from a young age and refused to stay close to women, you are the mother of his child, so he will certainly treat you differently for the sake of his own child"
Hearing that, Christina couldn't help walking more heavily, with her right hand tightened slightly.
‘'He will definitely treat you differently for the sake of his own child” Christina was annoyed.
Barbara was taunting her.
"It means that Patrick is nice to me because I am accidentally pregnant..."
Christina pursed her lips tightly, with irritation suppressed under her brows.
Something happened to the Stephenson Family.
As a result, they delayed their breakfast today.
Around 8: 30 a.m., Old Master Mr.Hopkins, Patrick, and Chandler came to the Main Residence's dining room to have dinner.
Everyone ate politely and silently.
After dinner, Chandler respectfully walked up to the Old Master to make polite conversation with mixing emotions on his face, and then he left quickly.
"Patrick, you need to attend two important meetings in the company today.Let's hurry over now, or others will wait for a long time..."
Seeing that it was getting late, Barbara quickly packed up the briefcase in the living room and turned to urge the man beside.
Few people could urge him to hurry up in such a natural tone.
Christina, who was a little annoyed, couldn't help glancing at Barbara.
Christina didn't want to stay in the living room anymore, so she walked out expressionlessly and would like to take in the fresh air in the back garden.
It was Barbara, the senior executive of the group.
No wonder Patrick said I wasn't competent.
"Compared to her, I'm really ashamed!"
She gritted her teeth angrily.
"What are you angry about?"
The familiar low voice came from behind when Christina just arrived at the rockery.
The man looked at her sullen face and knitted brows.
Then, he thought and added after thinking for a while, "Last night, Chandler..."
"Don't tell me this!"
