Spoil My Errant Wife (Patrick and Christina) novel Chapter 326

At five o'clock in the morning, Christina woke up in the hotel and was about to rush to the hospital.

When she reached the lobby on the first floor, she thought that Betty had been taking care of her father all night without eating anything.

People in C City had the habit of eating breakfast and drinking tea.So she asked the waiter to pack two portions of porridge and some shrimp dumplings.As she waited in line to pay the bill, she saw a familiar figure.

"Crystal!" Crystal immediately looked around.

What met her eyes was Christina's surprised expressions.

Astonished by the encounter with Christina in C City, Crystal asked.

"Why are you in C City?"

"My father is hospitalized,"

Christina mentioned it casually and then looked at Crystal curiously.

"What did you hesitate to say on the phone yesterday? Did you come to C City early this morning?"

Crystal, who was afraid of being found out, stammered, "I...I'm out looking for a job""

"You live in A City.Why do you come to C City to find a job?"

"I act on momentary impulse."

Crystal looked embarrassed and quickly changed the topic of conversation.

"Why is your father in the hospital? How is he now?"

"Yesterday morning, on his way to work, he seemed to have crashed into a guardrail and was sent to the hospital.He is still in a coma now. My aunt took care of him at the hospital last night.Now I'm going over..."

Christina was paying the bill and then hurried over with a few bags of breakfast.

"Then I'll go with you to see your father." Out of solicitude, Crystal also helped carry a bag of porridge.

"Well, thanks."

After Christina met her friend, she was less in a panic.

When in trouble, the company of friends always helped her calm down and feel secure.

"The doctor says he is not in good health.It might be because he has been drinking and smoking for years for the sake of social engagement required by his career.The Dickens family rose from obscurity.He might be working much harder than others"

As they walked side by side, Christina talked about her father, which she rarely mentioned to others.

Crystal listened quietly and muttered, "Your father must have devoted much more efforts to work than the Shepherd family, which has established its position for generations."

Mr.Dickens started his career by relying on the resources and influence of his wife's family.He had to face more problems and was under more pressure.

"Don't worry too much.Everything will be fine with the treatment of the hospital.In the future, your father needs to balance work and rest."

"I'm not worried about him." Christina looked a little unhappy.

"It's his own fault.What's the meaning of making so much money, when his family is broken up?"

Crystal knew that Christina was only firm in speech but soft in heart.

"Your father suddenly falls ill.How is the company? Does the Hopkins family help..."

As soon as she asked, Crystal immediately regretted it.

At the mention of the Hopkins family, Christina also showed mixed feelings.

Considering her relationship with Patrick now, she didn't want to have any associations with the Hopkins family as far as possible.

"A lean camel is bigger than a horse.There is no need to worry.When he is discharged, I'll ask him to retire.He always compares himself with the higher, which I dislike so much.I hate the style of the Dickens family of being so keen on face-saving."

Crystal laughed at her.

"You've inherited the character of being keen on face-saving."

As they arrived at the lobby of the inpatient department of the hospital and waited for the elevator, Christina wanted to say that Crystal seemed more and more disobedient recently and wondered whether Crystal was under the influence of others.

At that moment, the phone rang in Crystal's pocket.

She took it out, glanced at the caller ID, and was scared out of her wits.

"I come across Christina and stay with her now"

She held her phone in a furtive manner and reported in a low voice.

"No, no one can be told.I acted merely on impulse.I regret it now."

Christina didn't know who Crystal was talking to.

Crystal smiled guiltily at her and pointed to a corner on the left.

"Wait for me." She said, signaling she had a big problem to solve.

Yesterday, she went to the Department of Civil Affairs with Chandler to get marriage license.
