Spoil My Errant Wife (Patrick and Christina) novel Chapter 54

When a woman was in love, she always worried that her boyfriend might not love her anymore.

In fact, if a woman wanted a man to fall in love with her, she must first learn to love herself.

When a woman was attractive enough to others, she would be wooed by men.

It was so hard for women to find true love.

Thus, women should not fall in love with anyone too easily.

Whoever fell in love first was destined to pay more and be the loser...

Christina was not the sort of woman who was sentimental.

However, she did not know if she had been living so comfortably in Hopkins Family recently that she suddenly remembered the principles of love that Betty had taught her in the past.

"Grandpa, I want to go to the sanatorium in the North of the City to visit my aunt"

After having breakfast with Mr.Hopkins in the morning, Christina said.

Mr.Hopkins did not object.

He glanced at Patrick and said in a low voice, "The 50th-anniversary celebration for IP&G Group is almost done.If you are free, go with her…”

"No, don't bother him.’ Christina refused subconsciously.

Patrick looked straight at her.

Christina felt ill at ease.

She lowered her head and explained, "Charles promised to go with me.He's been idling around all day and he is freer."

Christina would rather ask Charles to go with her than let Patrick go with her...

Around 8 a.m. in the morning, Charles drove over to pick her up reluctantly.

"Keep an eye on her!" Patrick said coldly, looking terrible.

Charles sat in the driver's seat and held the steering wheel.

Patrick's words made him scared.

When he looked up in the rearview mirror, he saw the woman gesturing for him to drive quickly.

"Christina, Patrick is free at home today.Why do you ask me to drive you to the sanatorium?"

When they left, Charles raised his voice and shouted at the woman in the back seat.

Christina knew she was sorry for him, so she didn't say anything.

After thinking about it, Charles felt something was wrong.

"Christina, has Patrick not officially met your aunt yet?" He asked as he drove.

"Yes." She told him honestly.

Charles braked suddenly, and the car almost hit the lamppost opposite.

"What's wrong with you?!" Christina was startled.

Charles was furious and turned to look at her, "Christina, do you have any common sense? Do you have any idea what it means to take a man to meet your relatives for the first time?"

‘I'm done! No wonder Patrick just looked at me with a murderous look”

"What's the big deal? Why are you so agitated?"

Christina felt guilty when he looked at her.

She turned to look out of the window and muttered, "Aren't we friends? You just pretend..."

"I'm not your friend."

Charles was so angry, "What do you want me to pretend to be? How dare you ask me to take Patrick's place and pretend to be your husband? I want to live a few more years!"

Charles felt that he had fallen into the trap of Christina.

No way, he must immediately send her back to Hopkins Family.

When Christina saw that Charles was going to drive back to the Hopkins Family, she immediately became anxious, "Hey, Charles, please help me.I really can't think of a good way..."

"I haven't told my aunt about my divorce with Cory, and I married into the Hopkins Family because I was accidentally pregnant.How can I tell her about these? My aunt has a heart attack..."

Christina said in a low voice, grabbing Charles's arm with her right hand.

She showed a rare expression of frustration.

"Charles, just help me this time.I'll tell my aunt about my divorce, but don't mention my marriage to the Hopkins Family and my pregnancy."

"Are you going to hide your marriage to your aunt?"

Charles looked up and down at her with a complicated expression, "Christina, she'll find out sooner or later."

"By then, I would have left," she murmured.

Charles couldn't hear her, "What?"

Christina did not repeat it.

There was a somber look in her clear eyes.

Charles had known her for a while and knew that this woman was stubborn and she rarely asked for help.

Besides, he was a soft-hearted man...

"Christina, look, you should tell your aunt that we are just friends.Don't ever say that we're in a dubious relationship, or I'll expose you right away! We're just friends, remember, friends!"

Christina smiled brightly at him and patted him on the shoulder with her right hand.

"I got you.Charles, I never know that you are such a kind playboy”

 "D*mn it.I only help you for the sake of Patrick,’’ Charles snorted.

"Where are we going?"

"We should at least buy some fruit when we go visit our elders."

Charles was a little nervous for no reason.

There were some fruit shops across the street.
