Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 682

Christine was so enraged that her face turned pale. To ease her anger, Kristina hurriedly clarified, “Christine, it's not what you thought. We met by chance outside days ago. We’ve only known each other for a couple of days. No one is ganging up on you or anything. Believe me.”

Max didn’t want his mother to grow angry at this time either.

Thus, he also explained, “Yes. I and Laura meet new people every day. How can we know which of them has a past with you? We can’t really call you and name each of our new acquaintances to you every day, right?”

His tone sounded a little sad.

Christine had not claimed she was the victim yet, but her son was acting like the victim instead. That made her laugh despite her rage.

“Fine. You just gotta confront me. I can’t beat you in arguing anyway. Fine. I won’t complain about this anymore, satisfied? Do whatever you like. I can’t tell you what to do, nor do I want to.”

Then, she stomped to the side and sat down, sulking.

This moment was rather awkward.

Max looked at Kristina, who shook her head helplessly.

In the end, Max had no choice but to walk up to Christine and say, “Mom, don’t be angry. Okay, we’re sorry. But I’m your son. Do you not trust your own son?”

Christine was still silent. Plainly, she was still in a sulk.

Max rubbed his temples, feeling troubled.

Just then, the light above the door of the surgery room went off.

Though the three were having a falling-out, they all kept looking at that light from the corner of their eye.

When the light went off, they all perked up and got to their feet.

Shortly, a doctor walked out from inside.

“Which of you are the patient’s family?”

Max and Christine hastily took a step forward.

“I am!”

“Me too!”

The doctor glanced at them. This was a public hospital. As the patient was delivered here in a rush, the doctor didn’t get to check the patient’s identity.

Thus, he didn’t know who the two were either, nor did he have time to look into it because he had just finished the surgery

The doctor said in a deep voice, “The surgery went very well. The patient is stable now. But his leg and several ribs have been severely fractured. You should pay attention that he can’t move around lately. He’ll recover after six months of rest in bed.”

The three instantly breathed a sigh of relief. It was as if a load had been taken off their minds.

“Thank you, doctor.”

“Thank you so much, doctor.”

The doctor waved at them and said, “The patient hasn’t woken up yet. You can see him in the ward in a moment. The nurses will tell you the rest about how to take care of him.”

The three nodded vigorously.

Soon, they saw nurses push a hospital bed out of the surgery room.

Chad was still unconscious. His face looked pallid at the moment. At this, Max and Christine felt overwrought.

Kristina was standing behind them. Yet, she was stupefied at the sight of the man in the hospital bed.

That man was in her entire teenage life.

She loved and admired him. She saw him as a man that she would pursue for the rest of her life.

Hence, in those years, she thought of and cared for no one but him.

She thought that man was single at that time.

However, she had no idea that he was actually dating her sister, Christine.

“Had I known that…

“I definitely wouldn’t do that kind of thing.”

On that wild night, Kristina herself couldn’t remember whether she did it with Chad.
