Today was the birthday party for the old witch of the Fisher Family.
Christina was ready to leave at 2 pm.She thought it was Patrick who knocked on the door.
But when she turned around, she saw an 'uninvited guest' Christina looked with a straight face at the woman in the front.
She must have come to find him...
"Patrick went out early in the morning" Christina was too lazy to greet the woman, and her voice was cold and obvious to drive the woman away.
"I know" Barbara replied with a smile as if she didn't mind Christina's repulsion at all.
"Around 7 o'clock this morning, he came to see me and helped me go through discharge formalities.Patrick is very busy today, so you may have to go to Fisher Family alone later" Her tone was very natural.
When she said these words, her voice rose.
Christina didn't like it at all.
"Miss Parker, Patrick has been an old friend with you for many years.He should care about you..."
Christina did not hide her unhappiness.
"But you don't have to worry too much about us.Patrick will come back to pick me up no matter how busy he is."
At the end of the sentence, her tone went more serious.
Barbara got stunned by her firm tone but she didn't immediately refute.
lt would be too arrogant for others to say so.
Who dared be so sure of what Patrick would definitely do? But Christina was an exception.
Christina.
Barbara stood upright, suddenly looking at the Young Madam Patrick with complex eyes.
Why was she so proud? Irritated by the gaze, Christina stood up directly from the sofa.
Not wanting to see her sharp eyes, Christina turned her head.
Barbara had been in the business world for a long time, even her eyes were full of ruthlessness.
Christina also noticed that Barbara had changed into a printed light yellow sleeveless dress made of chiffon.
It was rare for her to wear so fresh and beautiful.
She also carried a beautiful gift bag in her right hand, as if she had just returned from a high-end shopping center.
"Miss Parker, if you have nothing else to do, please leave."
Christina was not willing to confront her head-on.
After all, she was a friend of Patrick and Charles.
She would not pretend even though she didn't like this woman.
"I'm actually here for you,"
Barbara was still there, not meaning to leave, with her face a little serious.
"Christina, I know you may not be happy about Crystal's affair.I'm so sorry about your friend, but the company has its own rules.She irritated Mr.Morris by saying something in public without authorization last night.We can't, just for a single employee..."
The more Christina listened, the darker her face became.
It was obvious that she had used Crystal as a cat's paw.
How dare she said such general principles.
Bah!
"Christina, don't worry.I promise you that Crystal's resignation will not affect her resume negatively, and I can help her with her next job..."
"You don't need to."
Seeing her cold face, Barbara stopped talking.
She slowed down her voice and handed over the exquisite gift bag in her right hand.
Then she still said in the same gentle tone, "Christina, take it."
Christina glanced at the gift bag.
It looked like something very expensive.But she didn't care.
"It was Patrick who asked me to buy it for you,"
