Spoil My Errant Wife (Patrick and Christina) novel Chapter 58

Christina sneaked into the wine party.In fact, she did not understand why she came over.

She was a little concerned and upset.She thought that Laurie and Cory would definitely attend IP&G Group's anniversary celebration.

Carrie might come too.She wanted to know what was hidden between Patrick and Carrie.

She wondered whether he helped Carrie against her.

To her disappointment, Carrie wasn't there tonight.

The celebration had begun.

"The one on stage is the President of IP&G Group..."

A stranger beside her pointed to the rostrum and whispered.

Immediately, he looked down at Christina and smiled.

"Miss Jones, I heard that you are his girlfriend."

He smiled casually as if he were simply curious about their relationship.

Christina looked a little embarrassed.

The man mistook her for Cecilia.

She had no way but to pretend to be another woman because she didn't have an invitation.

At this time, the lights of the venue were dimmed.

Patrick was making a speech on the rostrum.

He was surrounded by the spotlight, setting off his outstanding temperament.

Instantly, he became the focus of the entire venue.

Christina stood in the crowd and occasionally heard some women whispering.

These women looked at the stage with adoration.

The distance between her and him was not that far.

But at this moment, Christina really understood the distance between them.

The distance between her and him reminded her of what Betty had said before.

Patrick was the kind of man whom anyone shouldn't be in love with.

Falling in love with him was doomed to end in misery.

What kind of woman would own such a man? Christina didn't know.

But that woman was definitely not her.

Just as she was thinking about it, a burning gaze suddenly fell on her from the stage.

Christina was shocked when she looked into his deep eyes.

Patrick's speech was brief.

He quickly handed the microphone back to the host.

He seemed to find something and then strode down the stage.

"Patrick."

This soft voice came from a woman who threw herself to Patrick when he just stepped down.

In the distance, Christina was stunned.

After a second of hesitation, she turned around and walked straight to the exit.

"Why on earth did I come here..."

Christina lowered her head and walked a little faster, mocking herself in a low voice.

"Go away!"

Patrick's voice was cold and deep, with a hint of displeasure.

"Patrick, I have received those anonymous threatening letters recently.They are terrible..." Cecilia held his arm tightly.

Her voice was soft and low, making people softhearted.

"Miss Jones, please don't bother me!" Patrick looked impatient.

Without any pity, he pushed her away.

"Go away "

He looked anxiously at the previous position but found nothing.Did he make a mistake? It was Cecilia not her? 

"Patrick, are you going back so soon?"

Charles and Patrick left the party together and took the elevator directly to the underground parking lot.

Patrick looked cold and did not answer him.

At this moment, the two of them walked side by side to the car.

Mr.Hopkins was at the celebration today.

So, Patrick asked all the bodyguards to protect his grandfather from any accident.

Charles took out the car keys.

"Patrick, why don't you let Christina out..."

As he spoke, he reached out to open the door.

"Patrick!"

A gloomy voice suddenly sounded.

Then, there was a sharp and piercing gunshot.

Bang 

"Get down!"

Patrick shouted at Charles almost at the same time.

Charles was startled and quickly turned over.

The two of them were hidden under the car.

The bullets hit the metal body of the car, making a soul-stirring noise.

"Patrick, come out!"

The man was dressed in a suit, looking like an elite.

But at the moment, he was out of control.

His face was ferocious, his eyes were bloodshot, and his right hand held a gun.

He was striding towards them.

"Patrick!!"

He seemed to hate the name and kept roaring! Christina, who was hiding behind a white Bentley, turned pale with fear.

‘’What should I do?’’ She just walked out of the elevator and wanted to drive back to Hopkins Family.

She didn't expect to meet such a terrible gunfight.

That man wanted to kill Patrick...

Christina could not help but tremble.

Her mind went blank.

She kept telling herself to calm down and find a way to help them.

But when she looked up at the mirror, she saw that the ferocious man holding the gun tightly with his right hand.

He was about to reach Patrick...

Bang 

The bullet flew out of the muzzle.

The horrible and ear- splitting sound scared her.

‘‘No a Christina could almost hear herself shouting in her heart.Her feet were weak and her trembling body was about to run towards them…”

However, as soon as she took a step, she heard a familiar voice.

"Patrick, today is the anniversary celebration.It's bad luck to see blood."
