Charles suddenly remembered something interesting that happened recently.
"I heard that Cory's daughter, who was born by a surrogate mother, has been sent abroad.Carrie refused to sign a divorce with him, and Carrie now is like a lunatic, chasing after those pretty and superficial women and scolding them for being a mistress.Once she even went to the police station”
Crystal Zhu immediately asked excitedly, "Does Cory really have an affair with that star Cecilia?"
Charles turned to look at Christina Dickens, who was quiet on the other side.She didn't seem interested in gossip.
He said truthfully, "Cory and Cecilia are indeed together.Half a year ago, I saw them go abroad on business and stay at a hotel."
Crystal's eyes widened, "They're really screwing with each other"
No wonder when Carrie saw Christina today, she looked like a crazy woman who was a little delusional.
"Why did Cory sleep with that outdated female star?"
It was the very Cecilia, the one who did plastic surgery.
Crystal had no bad intention and was just curious.
Christina didn't want to talk about this, so she interrupted, "Charles, why did you suddenly come to C city?"
Charles stopped, looked at her cold face, and suddenly sneered, "Christina, actually, Cory was right about one thing just now.A woman like you is heartless."
"Weird.Just say what you want to say." Christina glared at him angrily.
Charles snorted as if he had deliberately angered her.He turned to look at Crystal and talked.
"Do you want to know why Cory was with Cecilia? In fact, it's easy to understand.Cecilia looks very similar to our Miss Dickens.Cory has always held a grudge against things that happened in the past.He must have drunk too much and in a moment of confusion, he can directly regard Cecilia as Christina"
"Cecilia, on the other hand, was desperate.When Patrick wanted to support her, she was as popular as a princess, and no one dared to touch her.But if Patrick doesn’t want her, no one will dare to have anything to do with her.Everyone knows that Patrick wants to ruin her career, which does not need him to do it himself.Those who desperately want to please the Hopkins family will do it for him."
Hearing this, Christina looked a little pale.
Charles asked her deliberately, "Didn't Patrick tell you how he dealt with Cecilia?"
"Patrick really didn't do anything.He didn’t need to do anything.Just let the issue escalate and turn a blind eye to it"
So it was normal for those women to hate her and be jealous of her.
Christina's face darkened and she quickened her pace.She left him behind and didn't want to talk to him.
Crystal walked side by side with Charles.Crystal somehow became vigilant.She felt a chill behind her.
This was the saying that killing people did not need a knife, and with no blood spilled on hands.
They lived in a different world compared with hers, and she was an ordinary person.
This was somehow scary.
Watching the woman in front of him walking faster and faster, Charles shouted angrily, "Christina, slow down.Do you have a heart? I came here especially because of your father's illness.I have found a few experts for you..."
Christina, who was around ten meters away, stopped and turned around, "How did you know my father was hospitalized?"
Charles looked a little guilty when she asked.
"I just know," he replied stiffly.
"I just come to tell you that I'm busy in C City right now.Call me if you need anything.Don't go to meet that Cory, lest you cause any trouble.I'm busy.See you."
Charles finished in a hurry, pretended to be very busy.He then took a taxi and left.
Leaving Christina and Crystal standing by the roadside, Crystal sighed, "He's a terrible liar"
Christina raised her eyebrows.It was obvious that Charles felt guilty.
"Christina, do you want to go back to the hospital now, or do you want to walk around?"
Crystal stood in front of a bus plate and looked at a familiar address.She suddenly missed her life in high school.
"Shall we go around the school?" The school was very close.
It was just a bus ride.
Christina's father had woken up at the hospital, and the doctor and her aunt were looking after him.
In fact, she had no use staying there.
Seeing that Crystal Zhu was in high spirits, Christina then said, "Okay."
The pace of life in C City was indeed not as fast as that in A City.
Even a few empty seats could be seen on the bus.
Crystal felt happy.
It was too painful for her to squeeze in a bus in A City.
"I like C City very much.If it weren't for my stepfather and his family moving to A City, I would have stayed in this city:"
The two of them were high school classmates, and they hadn't known each other for long.
They had been in the same high school for just three years, after which they were separated by their own life.
On the contrary, Christina hated C City.
When they arrived at the station, they walked together and looked at the high school in front of them.
