Chapter 131
"I see."
She stood there with mixed feelings as the ck Bugatti in front of her sped away.
Patrick and Barbara left, leaving her behind.
The Fire Club in the city center was filled with noise and excitement, and she felt lonely standing in this
Patrick asked the bodyguard to send her back to the Hopkinses. On the way, Christina quietly looked at
the streetlights outside the car window.
It seemed like something urgent had happened, but Christina told herself not to ask because it was
none of her business. If she asked, Patrick would say that she was messing around, and then she
would let her imagination go wild.
She had to admit that she was not emotionally intelligent enough to hide her depression. When she
returned to the Hopkinses, the maid asked her to eat but she had no appetite.
After a warm bath, she climbed onto the big bed in herfortable pajamas and told herself to get
some rest.
But she was unable to fall asleep. She tossed and turned in bed. "Why can''t I know..." She was not
happy that she didn''t know anything and she had a feeling of being excluded from the circle.
The phone on the bedside table suddenly vibrated.
Christina perked up and quickly got up.
When she picked up the phone and looked at the screen, she was a little disappointed. It was not him
who was calling her.
Pig Is Rising: Christina, are you free now?
It was Crystal who sent her a WhatsApp message, "If you and Mark are busy, forget it. I won''t disturb
you."
She sounded a little hesitant. Crystal thought she shouldn''t disturb a couple at night.
Invincible Tina: Patrick is out. I''m alone in the bedroom. What''s the matter?
When Crystal saw Christina''s message, she was a little excited and quickly asked her for some advice.
Pig Is Rising: Christina, tell me how to get along with children!
Invincible Tina: I don''t know... By the way, what did you mean by bringing a five-year-old boy home?
Crystal, child trafficking is illegal. No matter what happens to you, just let the police handle it.
Crystal read the message from Christina and hesitated. She turned to look at the boy behind her and
sighed helplessly.
Pig Is Rising: This child''s father is an important partner in ourpany''s project, and that man helped
mest time. He asked me to look after his son in person. I can''t just drop my kid off at the police
station right now. It''s not a good idea.
Christina was a little curious about who the man was and why she hadn''t heard about their story.

Before she had finished editing her message, Crystal was in a hurry to send her a voice message.
Pig Is Rising: Christina, hurry up and tell me how to get along with kids. He is difficult to get along with.
I asked him to eat, but he said he wasn''t hungry. I found some toys to coax him, but he looked at me
like he was looking at an idiot. What the hell? He''s driving me crazy.
Crystal lowered her voice andined. Christina chuckled when she heard that Crystal was really
helpless.
Invincible Tina: That little boy I metst time in Clifton District was a leftover child. He was shy. His
mother abandoned him since he was a child and he grew up with his grandmother, so the little boy was
very good except for being a crybaby.
Pig Is Rising: Why? They''re all kids with psychological problems, but the one you met is obedient and
the boy at my home is unruly.
Crystal was very depressed.
Pig Is Rising: When I got to the first floor of the Fire Club, my clothes were a little messy and I wanted
to go to thedies'' room to tidy up. But I saw a handsome boy in thedies'' room. I thought he had
gone to the wrong ce and wanted to let him out gently, but I found the little boy staring at a cubicle in
the bathroom with a sullen look.
When Christina heard this, she was immediately shocked and sent another message, "Could it be that
his mother was having sex with another man inside?"
Crystal''s expression was a little solemn and replied, "Yes, it was really disgusting."
Pig Is Rising: The cubicle was unlocked and the door was left ajar. It was probably because they
couldn''t wait to have sex... Bah, they were disgusting. They were like a bitch in heat that the woman
moaned so loudly inside. She must be crazy. Her son was standing outside.
In the end, Crystal couldn''t help but curse.
Pig Is Rising: Not long after, a man ran over in a rage and kicked the door of the cubicle open... I saw
everything. The kept man already took off his pants. Tsk, tsk, they almost had sex.
Christina was thoughtful when she listened to Crystal''s angry voice messages.
Invincible Tina: Crystal, what are you going to do with the little boy you brought home? He saw this...
Or you can coax him to sleep. It''s almost 10 o''clock.
A five-year-old child was still very young mentally, but it didn''t mean that he knew nothing. He knew
what his mother had done was dishonorable.
This kind of thing had a very bad effect on the boy.
Crystal didn''t know what to do. She thought and sent another message, "Forget it. I don''t even know
the name of this little guy. He doesn''t like to talk to me. He keeps a straight face. He doesn''t cry or
make a scene when he saw his parents argue. He''s very calm."
It was just that he was so calm that it made people feel sorry for him.
Invincible Tina: Crystal, stop talking. Just sit next to the child and stay with him quietly. If he''s tired and
asleep, cover him with a nket.
Christina couldn''t think of a good way, so she could only give Crystal a suggestion ording to her
own logic.
Suddenly, she thought of Patrick because he was cold and didn''t like to talk to people. He always
frowned and looked sulky. He didn''t want to say anything to anyone.
When he was like this, Christina would pester him and sit quietly beside him.
She didn''t know if Patrick would be annoyed by her, but besides these, she really didn''t know what to
do.
Christina got a message...
She lowered her head and took a look. "I''ll go backter. Go to bed early."
It was a short text message from Patrick.
She looked at the screen of her cell phone, and suddenly it seemed as if all her previous frustrations
had disappeared. He was still thinking about her.
She put her phone back on the nightstand, dimmed the lights, andy back on the bed, feeling sleepy.
When she woke up the next morning, Christina found out that Patrick had not returned homest night.
"Nanny Faang, didn''t Patricke backst night?"
After washing up, she changed her clothes and rushed to the Main Residence. She wanted to call
Patrick directly, but she was afraid that it would hinder his work. She happened to meet Nanny Faang
who was preparing breakfast, so she walked up and asked her urgently.
"Young Master Patrick, this morning..."
Nanny Faang looked back at her and was about to continue, but she was interrupted by a cold voice,
"Your husband is busy outside, but you can sleep so soundly. This is the daughter taught by the
Dickens Family!"
It was her mother-inw Judy''s voice. Christina looked at her with aplicated expression. After a
moment of hesitation, she asked, "Why do you hate me so much?"
Christina asked directly, and Judy was a little surprised.
"Patrick is back. He and Chandler are with grandpa now..."
Barbara''s voice came from outside the door. Judy was hesitant for a moment, as if she was avoiding a
topic. She strode away with a sullen look.
When Christina saw that Judy left without scolding her, she was even more confused, but she didn''t run
over to ask.
"Do you know why Patrick has always disliked women since he was a child?" When Barbara saw that
Christina had been staring at Judy''s back, she asked Christina this ambiguous question.
Christina turned to her and said nothing.
"Judy had an affair when she was young and was caught by Patrick..."
