Spoil My Errant Wife

Chapter 232 

"I love him.”

Betty was dumbfounded.Unexpectedly, she heard Christina screaming helplessly.Betty knew that her niece had never been a weak woman.Christina was stubborn, and always tried to stay strong.She seldom told anyone if she had been wronged.Now that seeing her crying so hard, Betty also struggled and felt uncomfortable.Because of the heavy rain, the highway in front of them was congested.Many people looked at them curiously through the window.

They could hear the sound of the rain, thunder, and the noise of the crowd.

Betty felt very uncomfortable being looked at like this.

She noticed that Christina, who was in front of her was also drenched.

Christina looked pale; a pregnant woman shouldn't stand in the rain like this.

"I'm doing it for your own good.Let's go home now..."

Betty softened her voice and said.However, the woman in front of her remained silent, who stood still and did not want to move.Betty knew her, she grabbed Christina's wrist so hard that she even hurt her slightly; she dragged Christina towards the gate of the community.

"I want to go back to Patrick's place."

Christina didn't want to move, and Betty failed to pull her away.No matter how Betty tried to persuade her, she refused to give in.Betty could only scold her angrily.

"You said you loved him.Is love as simple as you think? Christina, I know you so well.I've watched you grow up, and I know you don't understand your feelings at all.In the past, Cory listened to his mother's words to pursue you, and you said you owed him, so you agreed to date him at once.You gave

everything to him and waited for his love, but what did you get in the end? Carrie got involved in your marriage, and you, the loser, were abandoned."

You lost everything.

Christina looked serious.She had to admit that Betty was right, she lost completely.Her asexual marriage with Cory, and the three years she spent waiting for him, certainly affected her greatly.

At least she became more conservative and timid in getting into a relationship.

Betty knew how to convince her, "I told you long ago that repaying kindness is not love, but you didn't understand.You just thought you owe him...You agreed so readily because of the shadow of the Dickens family's shatter.You just wanted a home for yourself"

"Can't I?"

It was as if her secret had been exposed, so she raised her voice to find an excuse for herself.

Everyone would make mistakes, and everyone had something they would like to pursue.

Betty's voice was even harsher, "But you do not belong to that family.How did your grandfather teach you?It's okay if you didn't get it because you didn't ask for it.But if you have asked for it and you still didn't get it, that means it does not belong to you!People of Eisenhower family won't covet things that don't belong to us, but you're begging for having a family to shelter yourself.You're not only a coward but also a fool!"

Christina did not know how to refute; she was not as tactful and sharp as Barbara.

She just wanted to tell Betty, "Patrick is different.He is different from the other men in the world!"

She firmly believed with that.

"What's the difference!"

Betty looked straight into her eyes and mocked her mercilessly.

"Cory told you that he saved you on your high school graduation trip, so you agreed to his proposal.

Patrick told you that he was the one who actually saved you, and then you said you fell in love with him.

You've been taken good cared by both the Dickens and the Eisenhower families since you were akid, but suddenly your grandfather died, your father cheated on your mother, and your mother committed suicide.

I know, you don't want to accept these misfortunes.

You pretend to be strong, and you've been looking for a happy ending that you've imagined."

"Christina, listen up.You don't owe anyone anything.You were taken away by bandits on your high school graduation trip.Cory was just passing by, and the shrapnel in Patrick's head had nothing to do with you.Even if he didn't save you, Derek had come to you at that time..."

..

The shrapnel.

She could not clearly remember her narrow escape, but she knew that the bandits had fired.She didn't hear the scolding as if her mind stuck all of a sudden.

Some people got out of their cars and walk towards them.

"What are you arguing about? Hurry home, it’s raining."

"Hey, she's pregnant.Don't make her stand in the rain.Be kind!"

Gossip surrounding Christina made her mind even messy.

All her thoughts got stuck by the strange and terrible word, and her whole body stiffened.

"What's wrong with Patrick?"

"Patrick won't live long.He has a piece of shrapnel in his head!"

Betty scolded her sharply and fiercely, "Christina, you don't dare to accept reality, but here it is.Take your experiences of your high school graduation trip as an example, you are afraid of it, so you always can't remember it clearly.Reality, however, prevents you to mess around and fantasize.Patrick is not the one."

"He will only hamper you and make you feel guilty.He will drag you into the abyss.You have to face the reality, The reality is that Patrick himself made a wrong judgment.There was no love imbroglio between you and him before.You did not ask him to save you, but he made the decision himself"

"Derek drove him to the hospital that day, but they met a car accident.Patrick was quickly rescued, but Derek stayed in coma in Seattle for six years.They're even.Patrick would have died long ago without him.The shrapnel in Patrick's head is just his own burden, he just wants to drag you to hell with him for the rest of your life."

Christina did not speak.The heavy rain was still so cold.He asked her to stay with him for the rest of her life, even if it was in hell...

That was possible, Patrick was indeed a dictator.

Suddenly, she calmed down.She didn't know why, perhaps because Betty was right.She was a coward.She resisted the reality and didn't dare to recall.

She had been pretending to be strong, and because of Cory, she was even more number for her second marriage.

Patrick had done a lot for her but she ignored them.She was an incompetent wife, but Patrick could always see through her at aglance, and told her, "Don't overexert yourself"

At that moment, she was moved, because there was no one for her to rely on in reality, so she had to stay strong even if she couldn't hold on.

And he even indulged her to mess around.A man like Patrick was so scary that women who met him would not have any chance to escape.

Since she could not flee away, she would just perish with him. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"I've promised to accompany with him..." and I would spend the rest of my life with him.

"I'm going back" Christina replied calmly.

Betty's expression was complicated and she loosened her grabbing hand a little.

She watched Christina turn around and walk away in the rain.

"A lot of sequelae are disturbing him.He has too many problems to deal with, and he would not be able to handle them alone..." Betty shouted angrily at Christina's back.

She was unwilling to let her niece, who was the closest relative to her, leave.But she did not run to stop her; she knew that she could not.

Christina did not look back, she could hear the words behind her clearly.

Standing on the side of the road with a blank expression, she looked at the slowly moving cars.

Was there a car that could take her back? She just wanted to go back now...

"Miss, where are you going?"

A taxi driver attracted by their quarrel previously stopped the car, rolled down the window, and asked.

"To the Morning Hillside Villa..."

Her lips were pale as she had been drenched in the rain for too long.

The driver opened the back door and she was about to get in anxiously when her phone rang.It was an urgent call from Charles.

"Christina, don't go back to the house of the Hopkins family..."

Charles shouted, fearing that she would miss the words.

"The Senior Mr.Hopkins is planning to send Patrick to Seattle.He won't let us get involved.You have half an hour to go to the airport.I bribed a servant from the Hopkins family to get the information.Just come here as quickly as you can..."

"Christina, they said you left on your own.If there is even the slightest conscience left in your mind, come to the airport immediately, or you will definitely regret!"
