My billionaire husband spoils me too much novel Chapter 57

Chapter 57 Fall in Love with Him

In the past week, every time Christina passed by the study, she would stare at the thick door. She wanted to go in.

The old documents in the study made her curious.

But she never had a chance.

It was said that Patrick was very busy on the fiftieth anniversary of the group. These days, she saw Charles and the rest of them often come over. They discussed the study very late before leaving

I am not invited to the opening ceremony...!

They had just finished breakfast when

Patrick’s phone began to ring again.

Someone was reporting from the other end of the phone. Patrick’s look went gloomy. He said in a cold voice. You can’t even handle such a small matter? Idiot

Christina heard the anger in his voice and looked up at him secretly.

There seemed to be some trouble at the company, but Patrick was generally casual about work, so he rarely got angry about company-related matters.

“Did those old men…” Even Mr. Hopkins, who was sitting in the middle of the sofa, looked up at him.

With slight anger on his face, Patrick didn’t answer the old man‘s question and hung up the phone.

“Alter all, they have been in the company for 30 years. Don’t go too far.” Mr. Hopkins warned.

Patrick was in charge of the group. As a retired old man, Mr. Hopkins would not interfere too much.

Mr. Hopkins suddenly turned to look at Christina beside him. “Christina, have you learned ballroom dancing? Tonight is the IP&G Group’s fiftieth anniversary party. The first dance requires your company.”

“She’s not going Patrick suddenly spoke coldly. Christina was stunned for a moment, looking bad. And she lowered her head without refuting.

The IPSG Group’s fiftieth-anniversary party would be grand, and the first dance at the party should be performed by Patrick and his partner.

It was obvious that Patrick’s partner was not her.

His partner should be Cecilia.

Christina sat with the old man for a while and then went back to her bedroom

She didn’t pay any attention to Cecilia. Recently, Cecilia posted a wedding photo from three years ago on her Twitter, which quickly became a hot topic.

The grim-faced man in the photo seemed to be the eldest grandson of the Hopkins Family as well as the president of the IP&G Group,

The media did not dare to report on Patrick. When Cecilia took the initiative to post the photo, the netizens were shocked. Some people speculated that Cecilia had already stealthily married into a wealthy family.

“No wonder she hates me so much.”

Christina sat on the bed and swiped her phone, then lay down and stared at the ceiling

If she had not been pregnant by accident with Patrick’s child, Patrick would have married Cecilia.

Christina subconsciously stroked her abdomen with her right hand.

She was already three months pregnant. Although she was pregnant with twins, it didn’t look obvious as she was thin. But her palm could feel the life in her stomach

“He married me because I was pregnant.” The marriage will end soon.

Thinking of Patrick, she felt a little reluctant to leave.

Christina was startled and she quickly got up, forcing herself not to think about him.

At this moment, the phone beside the bed rang Christina looked at the number displayed on the screen. It was a call from the sanatorium where her aunt Betty stayed. She immediately pressed the answer button.

Before she could speak, the nurse quickly said, “Miss Dickens, your aunt Suddenly fainted yesterday.

“How is my aunt now? Why did she faint?” Christina immediately became anxious.

Betty had been living in that sanatorium for two years, and the doctors and nurses in the hospital were familiar with them.

“Miss Dickens, you don’t have to worry too much. Ms. Eisenhower is fine now.”

“You should have told me yesterday Christina didn’t mean to blame the nurse. She was just worried,

“Ms. Eisenhower insisted that we don’t contact you yesterday” the nurse hesitated.

As she spoke, the nurse sighed and told her honestly, “I’m not sure about the situation. Ms. Eisenhower’s getting better recently. Yesterday, she was watching TV alone. Suddenly, she cursed loudly after watching a piece of entertainment news. Then she fainted.”

“What kind of news?” Christina looked confused.

“I already know about your divorce with Cory!

Betty snatched the nurse’s phone. Her voice was unusually angry. “Christina, why did you keep it from me about your divorce? f I hadn’t seen the wedding report on Cory and that slut on the TV you would have kept it from me for the rest of your life!”

Christina was surprised and guilty when she heard Betty’s voice.

“I’m sorry.”

“Auntie, I didn’t mean it. I just…” She explained nervously. Betty was gentle and rarely spoke in such a cold voice.

“Christina, you know why I’m angry. I’m angry that you didn’t tell me anything. I’m angry that my heart is too weak, bring you trouble.”

Betty sounded excited, and she held the phone tightly in her right hand. “I know you’re worried about my illness, but you have to tell me the truth. Why did Cory divorce you? Why did he marry Carrie? Did the two sisters make trouble for you? My sister has been forced to die by them.”

Christina thought of her mother who had committed suicide, and she was getting more depressed.

Auntie, I divorced three months ago.

Don’t worry about me.” she said in a low voice after a moment of silence. “I

don’t like Cory anymore. It doesn’t matter to me whom he marries.”

 

9STina, I know you haven’t been happy

marrying into the Hampton Family in the past few years. I can tell even if you don’t tell me.”

Betty’s voice was faint and sad. You left the Dickens Family with me to suffer. I can’t help you with anything Now I’m afraid you’ve wronged yourself for my illness.”

“I don’t…” Christina retorted almost subconsciously

“Tina, don’t fall in love with people you shouldn’t love. You’ll be in pain. Living a

normal life is a blessing.” Betty did not

ask about the divorce. Betty repressed

her memories. She knew the pain and did not want Christina to repeat her mistakes.

Christina held the phone and looked

down at her belly

“I see,” she replied softly

After hanging up the phone, Christina looked around the luxurious and Spacious bedroom with complicated feelings, as well as the bed and his pillow.

‘Patrick’ She murmured the name in her heart.

Christina had to admit that it was really easy to fall in love with a man like him.

She was not sure if it was love.

However, she indeed liked him. No matter how much she denied it, she really cared about him in her heart

Patrick was someone she shouldn’t fall in love with

She wouldn’t let herself become too attached to him. Even if she liked him, she wouldn’t say it.

What did Patrick have to do with Carrie? Why did he want to help

Carrie? She wanted to know.

After thinking for a long time in the bedroom, she suddenly got up and went to the study again.

She twisted the doorknob and found out that the door was locked.

This week, she had tried several times and had no chance to go in.

Tonight was the 50th anniversary of the IPSG Group, and Hopkins Family was filled with festivities. Mr. Hopkins, accompanied by the butler, attended the celebration party, while Christina remained at home and did not go because Patrick insisted that she did not need to attend.

Patrick didn’t really like her going out. Maybe he thought she would embarrass him if she went out.

“Doesn’t Christina come?” The IP&G Group’s anniversary party was held in Gordon Hotel. Successful businessmen and celebrities, as well as famous movie stars, all came to congratulate them.

At 7 pm, before the party officially

started. Charles and Chandler had already arrived early, drinking and chatting in a private room.

“Patrick, you don’t let her out?

Charles glanced at the man on the opposite sofa and handed him a glass of red wine.

Patrick took the glass but remained silent.

Charles shrugged. He was used to Patrick’s act of evading questions. “When the party officially begins, you‘re going to dance. Who’s your partner tonight?”

The women at the venue comprised secretaries, socialites, movie stars. who were all looking forward to it. As long as Patrick was willing, he didn’t lack women

“It can’t be Cecilia?” Charles muttered gloomily.

Was Cecilia Patrick’s partner tonight?

“No.” Patrick said coldly.

At the fiftieth anniversary party, even Mr. Hopkins and the major shareholders came over, but Patrick let the group’s vice president do the first dance.

It didn’t seem to be appropriate. However, since Patrick said yes, then that was fine.

Patrick didn’t seem to care much about IPSG Group’s 50th anniversary, but

there was nothing he could care about.

Charles suddenly thought of something else. “By the way, Patrick Cecilia recently received a series of anonymous letters threatening her. One of them was written in blood.”

Cecilia was one of his artists, who had an affair with Patrick, so Charles paid more attention to her.

“You don’t have to tell me about her Patrick replied indifferently.

Charles was surprised. Patrick didn’t seem interested in Cecilia.

“How‘s the investigation about the Dickens Family?” Patrick ignored Charles and suddenly remembered something else and asked Chandler directly

Chandler was using his laptop, and he was typing quickly and skillfully. TIL send you the information.”

Chandler looked across at Patrick and thought for a while. “Are you really going to help Donald?”

In fact, C City’s so-called richest man had high debt. The so-called transformation was fake. In fact, Donald wanted Patrick to support him.

“Judging from the situation, this sum of money is quite large.”

Chandler looked at the data in the notebook and asked, “Is it really worth

“We should check the surplus and deficit in the future. After all, the foundation of the Dickens Family is stable.” Patrick suddenly picked up a glass of red wine on the table and shook it, sipping lightly.

“… Only when the two things are closely correlated can you take control of it.” He seemed to be indicating something anything instead of talking about work

Charles looked at Patrick with wide eyes, thinking that fortunately, he was not Patrick’s enemy.

Chandler smiled. “I noticed that Donald doesn’t seem very happy to ask you for help.” This was really strange.

“He may be scared of him,” Charles muttered.

Since Patrick entered IP&G Group, he had spent three months in a ruthless and forceful manner, transforming this huge group empire.

Now both the new generation and the elders in the circle were very afraid of Patrick.

Chandler knew that Patrick had provoked public anger by stirring up the interests of a large number of people. Therefore, he reminded, “Patrick, I heard there was a blood case at the Venice branch last week. Be careful.

Those who were caught in a desperate situation could do anything, so they Thas to bring more bodyguards when they went out.

Patrick glanced at the clock on the wall from the corner of his eye. He was not interested in this grand reception and suddenly wanted to rush back... To see his wife.
