My billionaire husband spoils me too much novel Chapter 108

"Where's the fairy tale book I asked you to buy?"

It was the third day since Patrick woke up, and he has regained his energy, but his injuries were so serious that he needed to stay in the hospital for observation. Charles and the others came to visit him every day at noon.

Christina rummaged through the fruit basket that Charles had brought, but there was no fairy tale book she wanted.

"You're a mother now, but you read such childish books." Charles glared at her angrily.

Christina looked at him angrily. "I told you the day before yesterday. You forgot again!"

"I asked Barbara to stop by the bookstore and buy it for you. Christina, are you ashamed that you have to bother others when you are asked to stay and look after Patrick?''

Every time Charles came to visit him, this ward became very lively. Patrick sat leaning on the head of the bed, glancing towards them.

Christina and Charles glared at each other, then they turned their heads away and shut up.

Around 11:30 noon, the nurse brought some food.

Probably tired of the food here, Patrick continued to read the financial papers in his hand. His face was cold and he didn't even look at the lunch.

"Patrick, you can't be picky about food in front of my son."

Christina's words were so astonishing, and Charles was about to say that she was the pickiest eater.

At this moment, Barbara walked in slowly. "Patrick's son?" With a slight smile, she looked at the people in the room jokingly.

"Hello." Christina looked at Barbara and immediately became more disciplined and greeted her seriously.

Charles mocked her. "You're pretending."

"I've heard from Charles that you're pregnant with twins. Congratulations." Xua Barbara walked up to her and smiled like a sister.

Christina was surprised to hear that.

Barbara looked at her face and said with a chuckle, "I've heard about you before. After all, you're so famous."

Charles sighed and shook his head. "Yes, she is a famous troublemaker."

"Charles, do you need a beating?" Christina turned around and glared at him, blaming him for ruining her image.

"Barbara, don't get too close to her. Christina has a violent tendency. If you don't agree with her, she will beat and hurt you. Be careful."

"They say you're good at karate?" Barbara was amused and asked curiously.

Was it a compliment to be judged as a great fighter?

Christina looked at Barbara in front of her. She was very decent and generous, and very capable. She could tell at a glance that Barbara was a career woman. She had always admired this kind of self-reliant woman.

Compared to Barbara, she felt ashamed.

Christina looked a little embarrassed and muttered, "My grandfather told me to learn this since I was a child. He said I wouldn't be bullied in the future."

"Grandpa is right."

The man who had been reading the newspaper quietly suddenly said in a low voice.

Charles was expressionless. He just wanted to tease her that her grandfather hadn't thought that she would bully others?

Barbara glanced at Patrick on the other side of the bed. Suddenly, the smile on her face was a little stiff.

Lowering her head, she hid her emotions and quickly took out a book from the bag. "Charles asked me to buy it for you..."

Christina took the fairy tale book from her. "Thank you."

"Christina, do you like fairy tales?"

"I want to read stories to Patrick." Christina looked at her and took it for granted.

The man on the bed was surprised and put down his newspaper to look at her.

"You don't like it?"

Seeing that he was looking at her strangely, Christina asked back.

She remembered that the last time she was in the hospital, Patrick read her Grimm's Fairy Talese, but she wasn't sure if Patrick had this habit.

She even doubted if Patrick wanted to go back to his childhood, but she didn't have the guts to ask such a serious question.

Charles was so stunned that he forgot to tease her for a moment, but suddenly he heard Patrick's deep voice, "I like."

Charles felt speechless.

"Brianna will definitely like Christina. It's fun to be with her." Barbara raised the corner of her lips slightly and turned to smile at Patrick.

"Is Brianna coming today?"

Charles remembered that Patrick's sister had a school holiday today.

"I was supposed to pick her up from school, but she has an appointment with a friend today..."

Charles was shocked when he heard this. "Does Brianna have a friend?"

Christina frowned slightly and thought that Charles's tone was a little strange. She didn't know much about Brianna. The last time she saw her, she only felt that she was very shy.

"Brianna has autism," Patrick whispered.

"Autism?" Christina's eyes widened and she walked to the bed as if she were interested. "Patrick, is your sister's autism born or affected..."

Seeing her taking the initiative to sit by his bed, Patrick couldn't help but laugh. "She's just shy. She'll like you."

"Actually, I'm pretty good with people with autism." Christina was confident.

"Christina, you are very unashamed."

Charles teased her. "Dealing with people with autism needs a lot of patience. I think Brianna would probably be scared to tears by your fiery temper."

"And only Barbara is so attentive to stay with her all year round to communicate with her."

Charles liked Patrick's sister very much, but Brianna was too introverted. Every time they saw her, they would show their friendliness and wanted to get closer to her, but Brianna was only willing to chat with the Hopkinses members. Barbara took a long time to make Brianna accept her.

"No, I used to... Eric is autistic too. He likes me." Christina said defiantly.

Charles didn't believe that. Men were bewitched by her beauty. "Come on, I already know how proud you were in your past love stories. Those men chased you, it's just..."

"Eric is different from those men!"

Christina argued with him, and the two of them quarreled at the sight of each other.

"Who's Eric?"

Patrick didn't bother to argue with them, but suddenly he felt annoyed by hearing Eric's name.
