Spoil My Errant Wife (Patrick and Christina) novel Chapter 30

The car was quiet and neither of them spoke.

Patrick looked at the humbleness in her eyes and wanted to say something that he had wanted to tell her a long time ago...

But then, Patrick's phone rang.

The phone kept ringing as if the person at the other end of the phone had something urgent.

The ringtone broke the rare silence in the car.

Christina looked at him suspiciously and saw that Patrick answered the phone impatiently.

After a while, he looked surprised for a second, as if something had happened to the person on the phone.

"Mr.Hopkins, I'm sorry to bother you, but something happened to Miss Jones.Today is the first day of her new TV series.She felt unwell, but she insisted on coming over.She fell into the lake when she was taking photos..."

The person on the other end of the phone was Cecilia's manager.

She spoke anxiously in a trembling voice.

Even Christina could hear some of her words.

‘Cecilia fell into the lake?’ Christina looked a little surprised.

"How is she?"

Patrick asked with an indifferent expression.

"The rescue was timely and she was out of danger, but she's still unconscious."

The manager answered quickly but hesitated.

"Mr.Hopkins, could you please come over..."

"Miss Jones was in a coma and kept calling your name.When she wakes up, she needs to be injected and take medicine.You know her very well, so you must know we won't be able to talk her inte..."

So she wanted Patrick to go over and persuade Miss Jones, who was indeed acting like a big star.

Christina stole a glance at the man beside her.

She was surprised that Patrick had coaxed a woman to take medicine.

This cold man was so considerate to his Miss Jones.

Christina saw him hanging up the phone thoughtfully.

She quickly said, "Just drop me off here."

When Patrick heard her, he frowned and looked at her.

Christina looked a little embarrassed.

"Miss Jones is sick.If you want to see her, I'll leave you to it.You let me out of the car.I'll call the driver to take me back home.’ She was sensible and knew that she was no match for Cecilia.

Besides, she didn't want to hear about them either because this made her feel like she was the one coming between them and uncomfortable.

When Patrick heard her say this, he slowly stopped the car and leaned over to her.

His deep eyes were fixed on her, and he asked in a deep voice, "You want me to go?"

His words were tinged with an ambiguous emotion.

Christina felt nervous, and she forced a smile.

"Patrick, I know this is just a deal.

I don't want anything, and I won't dare interfere with your relationship with Miss Jones..."

"I really thank your family for curing my aunt's heart disease.I know my place and what I should do.After the baby is born, I will."

"Get out of the car!"

Patrick didn't wait for her to finish.

Suddenly, he seemed very angry and shouted at her.

Christina was stunned.

Then she saw his cold face and his angry gaze on her.Her heart trembled.

"Did you hear me?"

When Patrick saw her bewildered expression, the anger became stronger in his heart.

Christina was completely stunned.

The minute she got out of the car, Patrick had driven away.

She stared blankly at the departing car and said with a sullen expression.

"What was that?"

She stood on the side of the road and looked down at her toes unhappily.

She recalled that ten minutes ago, Patrick had asked her gently where she was going for lunch, but now he left her here.

"I don't want you to go, but what right do I have to do that..."

She couldn't ask him to stay.

Not long after, the driver of the Hopkins Family came to pick her up.

Christina had been a little depressed after she returned to the Hopkins Family.

The cook made her a large bowl of bland but nutritious food.

This time, she did not complain as she had usually done.

While she was eating the nutritious meal, Mr.Hopkins came over and noticed something was wrong with her.

"What's wrong?" The old man asked in a deep voice.

"Where's Patrick? He didn't go to class with you?"

"He went with me, but he..." Christina reported truthfully and paused.

"But he received a phone call.It seemed that someone needed him at the company, so he left first."

She lied for him.

Mr.Hopkins did not like Miss Jones, so she did not dare to let him know where Patrick went, lest he blamed Patrick.

Christina didn't know when she started to feel like helping Patrick.

The old man did not think much about it.

He looked at her abdomen and asked, "How are you doing?"

"The child is very healthy."

When the old man heard that the child was healthy, he looked quite satisfied.

He ordered her.

"At night, you can read some books about how to make your child more healthy.Don't eat crabs in the middle of the night.’ 

"Okay” Christina nodded and said softly.

Then she looked up at the clock on the wall.

Patrick might not be back tonight.

After all, his Miss Jones fell into the water and got sick.

He had to be with his little darling.

Thinking about it for a while, Christina felt a little jealous.
