Spoil My Errant Wife (Patrick and Christina) novel Chapter 338

Christina didn't know what work Charles needed to do in the C City.

She hadn't seen him for a whole week since they met last time.

She had intended to go back to the A City, but Mrs.Dickens held her hands and tried to persuade her to stay a few more days with her hoarse sobbing voice.She couldn't reject her so she had stayed there for a whole week.

"I don't have too much luggage, so there's no need to see me off.I have called a taxi straight to the airport."

She picked her luggage up and came out of her room.She saw Betty holding a bow of lily syrup.

"There are three hours left.No hurry.Drink this first."

"Remember to check-in, or you'll miss the time again, just like yesterday"

Betty remembered that she had gone to the airport in vain yesterday and felt like laughing.

"Your grandma can't bear to see you leave.She wants you to stay here"

Ever since Donald was ill and in hospital, Mrs.Dickens, who was in her eighties, seemed to have figured it out.

Money was important, but reliable families who could be trusted were more significant.She took the bowl of syrup and walked to the living room to drink.

From time to time, she looked up at the decorations around the house.

It was her home in her childhood, and everything was familiar.

For a period of time, she hated the Dickens family very much.She hadn't intended to go into the house when she came back this time.

But Betty seemed to let her and the Dickens family resolve their previous grudges.She had dragged her into the house.Her grandma had been saying that she had tidied up her room, just like before.

"You don't like living here, right?" Betty sat next to her and could tell what she was thinking.

"No" She lowered her head and stiffly took the spoon to stir the syrup.

But in fact, she felt their warmth and love.

Betty knew that she liked the syrup.

"I'll get you another bow!""

"No, thanks.I'm full"

Betty looked at her with a serious expression.

"If you go back to the A City and live alone, there will be no syrup at all!"

Then she persuaded, "Christina, actually, the C City is better for you."

"Are you still angry with your father?"

"No matter what has happened, no matter how estranged you and your father are, you are a family.But for your father had been rescued in time, you would never see him"

As people grew up, they understood more clearly that nothing in this world counted except for life and death.

Christina subconsciously looked up at the stairs.

Her father, Donald, had been living on the second floor since he was discharged from the hospital.

He could walk around now.His assistant would send the documents over for him to review.He would go downstairs to have meals together with the whole family.

At least they had not quarreled with each other.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Betty's eyes darkened and she said in a low voice, "Actually, it was not all his fault as for your mother's accident..."

"It's been so many years.Forget it."

She interrupted her.She didn't want to recall those old things.

"I have had a good time by living in the Dickens family for the past few days." She said calmly and naturally stretched out her arms.

"That's true.It doesn't seem to be as awkward and oppressive as it used to be.It's probably because Connie didn't come back."

Betty also found it strange that Connie had not returned to the Dickens family for along time.

"Your grandma has lost contact with her.It seems that she is busy with something."

Christina was not interested in Carrie and Connie.She got up and said, "I really have to go to the airport.Grandma went to the hospital to take a physical examination with the nanny, so I have to go out quickly..."

Betty stopped persuading her and took a single-shoulder bag for her.

They walked side by side towards the door.

"Christina, where are you going? You can't leave!"

As soon as she opened the door, she heard an angry and sharp female voice.She was stunned.

Talk of the devil and he would appear.

Connie wore a white suit and a pair of black Gucci sunglasses, with long hair covering her shoulders.

From afar, she looked like a big star.

However, her fringe was a little messy and she looked a little haggard with her exquisite makeup.She came out from a gray Audi and rushed forward to stop her from leaving.

Betty was a little surprised to see her anxiety.

"Connie, what are you doing..." Betty said unhappily, but Connie took a big step forward irritably and gave her ashove.

"Get out of here.Who do you think you are?"

Betty staggered back and Christina quickly held her.She looked up at the stepmother in front of her and said in a cold voice, "Don't let me go? Look at you."
