Spoil My Errant Wife (Patrick and Christina) novel Chapter 89

"Yes...I'm on my way to the IP&G Group.” 

The sun was shining at noon, and a champagne-gold Rolls- Royce cruised towards the city center.

Christina was sitting in the back seat, talking to Mr.Hopkins on the phone, "There's a high school reunion next week, and she happens to be an employee of the company.’ 

"Patrick?"

Mr.Hopkins on the other end of the phone suddenly asked.

The car window reflected Christina's slightly stunned expression and she said truthfully, "He's fine.He hasn't had a migraine for the past few days."

Before Mr.Hopkins hung up, he said, "Since you are at the company, give him a call..."

‘‘Call Patrick?’’ She touched the screen of her phone and looked at Patrick's number.

She hesitated, but she still called him.

She put the phone close to her ear and she was nervous about what to say to him.

However, Christina put her phone down after a while and her eyes were filled with an inexplicable sense of loss.

Patrick didn't answer her call.

She felt that she was stupid to be nervous just now.

She thought she had been very sensitive lately.

[I'm in the lobby of the IP&G Group.

I'm here to have lunch with my friend.] When the car arrived at the company, she got out of the car and casually edited a text message to send to Patrick.

After waiting for ten minutes, she didn't receive any reply, and Christina didn't care much.

He should be busy.

She stepped into the lobby of the group.

She didn't see Crystal last time, so Christina simply waited for her at the company this time.

When it was almost 12 o'clock, the staff began to go downstairs for lunch, so the five elevators on the west side began to get crowded.

"Crystal?"

Christina looked at a woman ina black dress at the door of the elevator and smiled.

After graduating from high school, they hadn't seen each other for almost seven years.

Nonetheless, Crystal still looked the same as before.

"Crystal, can't you keep your creditors from stirring up trouble in the company? It's a real shame to 2e in the same department as someone like you.”

As soon as Christina approached, she heard a shrill female voice.

A woman was taunting Crystal with arrogance.

"Hey.why are you speaking so harshly?" Christina directly shouted at that woman.

Hearing Christina's voice, the women who were quarreling turned to look at Christina simultaneously.

Crystal recognized her at first sight, "Christina"

Crystal called out her name with some excitement.

As for the woman who had just quarreled with Crystal, her face suddenly took ona ghastly expression.

She seemed to be afraid of something, so she turned around and walked away quickly.

"That woman just now…” Looking at the woman's back, Christina felt as if she had known her before.

"Sabrina” Crystal whispered, "She was in the same class as us in high school."

Christina raised her eyebrows slightly.

No wonder she thought Sabrina looked familiar.

"She bullied you?" Crystal used to have a round fair face.

Now, she had an angular face and she was more mature, but she still looked gentle and easy to bully.

"Not really.It's my family's shit.’’ Crystal took Christina's arm and led her out of the company.

She said to Christina in a low voice, "My mom came to the company this morning and made a scene, so Sabrina said that to me."

"What happened?" Christina turned to look at her.

Christina remembered that Crystal's mother remarried when she was very young.

Her stepfather was very strict with her.

Her mother echoed the man and often scolded her for nothing.

They went to a western restaurant and had a simple lunch.

Crystal told her everything without scruple, "My stepbrother is getting married.My mother wants me to give him 300,000 dollars.”
