Spoil My Errant Wife (Patrick and Christina) novel Chapter 51

"That year, I was chased out by the landlord.My luggage was thrown onto the road like garbage.You wouldn't understand how humiliated and helpless I was..."

Christina sat beside the hospital bed and talked about her past in a low voice.

"My aunt and I just left the Dickens Family.We were short of money, so we found a low-rent house.I was in my senior year, and my aunt cooked at home to save money.It was my birthday, and she wanted to make me fried tempura, but,’ 

"..The house was on fire."

"By the time I got back from school, the fire in the kitchen had been extinguished.The landlord immediately chased us out without a word and said she wanted 20,000 dollars for compensation.At that time, we couldn't afford that.800 dollars was all we had..." Christina fixed her eyes on them.

She didn't expect Patrick and the other young men to understand the helplessness and lowliness of being poor.

Her aunt's right arm was burned but she covered it with long sleeves without wanting her to know.

Without the money to pay the landlord, she could only be insulted and cursed.

Without the money to see a doctor, she could only bear the pain.

"That night, we huddled around the corner like vagrants.We were hopeless.At that time, a kind-hearted man gave us a hot meal, offered us a temporary stay at her house, and lent us money to go to the hospital..."

Christina paused, and she stretched out her right hand to tug at Patrick's hem.

"It was an accident…” She said in a low voice with an imploring tone.

She could guess that there was something wrong with the mango juice that Sophie gave her the other day, and Patrick would definitely find it out.

However, she didn't want to reveal the truth.

Someone once treated her well, and she would remember it for the rest of her life.

Christina was a little worried.

After all, Patrick was not an ordinary person.

If she wanted to deal with Sophie, she might never turn around.

"Why are you still be kind to the person who hurt you?"

Patrick stood by the bedside, looking down at her profile with sharp eyes.

Suddenly, he spoke coldly with mild anger.

She was saved once by Cory, who had treated her the way he had treated her.

She was able to calm down and talk and laugh with him.

"My heart is too small to remember something unhappy to displease myself"

She raised her head and looked straight at him with clear eyes.

Patrick pursed his lips tightly and looked into her eyes, but he suddenly became silent.

Charles and Chandler did not speak again.

They were surprised to hear what happened to Christina.

They looked at each other and their gazes fell on Patrick.

This matter depended on how Patrick dealt with it.

"Patrick, can you please just let her go once?"

She tugged at the hem of his clothes and pleaded in a low voice.

It was the first time she had begged him in such a soft voice.

But she did it for an outsider! Patrick stared at her and was furious.

But instead of shaking her hand away, he took a step forward, bent down, and put his lips close to her ear.

His warm breath sprayed on her sensitive neck, and Christina tensed up instantly.

He murmured, "Christina, if one day I do something bad to you, will you forgive me like this...’ Christina was stunned and didn't react.

His words echoed in in her ears.

"What did he mean by that?’ 

When she looked up, Patrick and his friends had walked out of the ward, leaving her sitting on the bed, looking at their departing figures in confusion...

She heard vaguely Chandler's question.

"Cecilia is also in this hospital.Should we go and see her?"

"..She was discharged"

Christina watched the nurse close the door, and their conversations were completely inaudible.

She lowered her head and looked at her abdomen.

Actually, there was one more thing that Christina didn't say.

‘Sophie is Cecilia's biological mother..’ She thought, perhaps Patrick did not know about this.

Inexplicably, she laughed at herself.

Perhaps, she did not need to worry about Sophie at all.

Even if Patrick did not listen to her, Cecilia would personally speak for her mother.

In the corridor of the hospital, Patrick's cell phone suddenly rang.

It was some urgent business at A City head office.

His face was cold and he gave orders as usual.

Chandler and Charles walked side by side with him.

"Just pretend we don't know?"

When they entered the elevator, Patrick had just hung up the phone, and Charles couldn't help but speak.

They all knew very well that Sophie was responsible for Christina's coma.

Just let her go? It was not like Hopkins Family's style.
