Spoil My Errant Wife (Patrick and Christina) novel Chapter 275

Christina's string-puller was...

When Crystal saw Charles, who was sitting opposite them, she suddenly understood.

So this unambitious Mr.Shepherd was the string-puller.

"I want to advance to the second round of this audition"

Christina went straight to the point.

Yet Charles looked a little gloomy and did not speak.He glared at her unkindly, gritted his teeth to suppress his anger.

It seemed that he would explode at any time.

At present, Crystal sat quietly, yet was secretly happy.It turned out that Christina was here to threaten Charles.

"Is that why you called me out?"

He slammed the table with a sullen face and questioned Christina coldly.

"Yes."

And she admitted it honestly, which provoked him even more.

He couldn't restrain his anger any longer and shouted at her angrily, "You didn't contact me for so long.And you came to me this time to use me.Do you think I am too stupid to see that? Christina, don't be so self-righteous.Why should I listen to you?"

Seeing that he was about to lose his temper, Crystal then turned to look at the woman beside her with tremble.

After all, if Christina wanted to ask for help, she had to swallow her pride first.

However, Christina asked again, "Are you going to help me or not?"

He then paused for a moment, then his face turned darkened.

Even Crystal thought he was not going to help Christina.

And he was pissed off and scolded angrily again, "Christina, you haven't recovered yet.You should be at home and recuperate yourself! Don't go out anymore.And don't think about the audition!"

Christina did not refute.It was rare for her to listen to him patiently.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not harmonious, the waiter quickly served the drinks and left immediately.

"I heard that someone was dead in the apartment you are living.When did you become so poor? How dare you live in a haunted house? Are you possessed by a ghost? I don't understand why you want to participate in the IP&G project.You are not a professional.And the audition is obviously a cover-up.It's all cut and dried."

Crystal was surprised that he knew about Christina's haunted house.

Being scolded, Christina had no shame.She was expressionless and looked at the tea in front of her.

It seemed that she struggled for a second before she pushed the milk tea to his side.

And he also noticed her action, but still glared at her with a gloomy face.

Then she said, "Do you want to drink milk tea?"

He paused and then took it over.

And Crystal was surprised to see that Charles, who was emotional a second ago, was bought over by a cup of milk tea.

And he was quite satisfied with it.

In fact, Christina didn’t intend to bribe him.

She only felt that he was probably thirsty after speaking so long.

Seeing that he had drunk the milk tea, she then asked energetically, "Anyway, I want to be on the promotion list for this audition."

It was probably he had been oppressed by her in the past, so he was actually glad that she was nice to him.

Even she only gave him a cup of tea, he still felt a sense of accomplishment.But when he calmed down, he became dispirited for being bought over so easily! 

"Why did you participate in this audition?"

Since he could not refuse, he then immediately put on his airs.

At least he should let her know that she was begging him for help now.

"I'm short of money." She replied flatly.

"Short of money?"

He didn't believe that.So he glared at her.

"If you don't tell me the truth, don't expect me to help you!"

In fact, Crystal was also curious.
