Chapter 186

"Patrick is at Golden.A Club..."

The woman was standing on the balcony of the small apartment, holding her cell phone and talking to
someone seriously.She was a little agitated, and her left hand was pinching the succulent plants.

"I want to stay at my friend's house these days..."

"Oh, I'll be careful..."

As the owner of the apartment, Crystal could only stand there expressionless and watch Christina
ruthlessly pinching her succulent plants.

"Why did she have to come to my place?"

"Be gentle with my plants!"

Just as She was about to remind her, Christina said in a serious tone, "Barbara is with him!"

In an instant, a small leaf of the plant was pinched off.

"Christina, you ungrateful woman!"

Seeing that she had hung up the call, Crystal immediately scolded her fiercely.

"I'm sorry"

Christina was in a bad mood.She glanced at the poor little plant, apologized insincerely, and walked
into the house.

Crystal didn't really blame her for abusing her plants.

Instead, she began to worry that Christina was in a bad mood and that she would be harmed by her.



Crystal immediately followed her nervously.

"Christina, did you just tell Old Master Mr.Hopkins on Patrick?"

Crystal raised her eyebrows and looked at her.She had just heard Christina reporting Patrick's current
position to Old Master Mr.Hopkins and let him deal with his grandson.She was indeed insidious.

Christina did not change her expression and ignored her.She then opened the refrigerator to look for
food.

"Did that Old Master Mr.Hopkins really agree to let you live in my house?"

Christina took a bottle of fresh milk from the fridge and said calmly, "Yes, please take care of me in the
next few days."

Crystal was helpless when she heard that.

However, Crystal was surprised to see that she put the frozen milk on a small pot on the electric stove
and heated it.

"Oh, you have been in Hopkins Family for along time.And you become so particular about your food?"

Christina picked up the warm milk and drank it directly.

"I can't eat and drink raw or cold food."

Crystal felt that after she married into Hopkins Family, she changed a lot, but she didn't seem to notice
it.

After then, Crystal cooked two bowls of sausage and tomato noodles.She brought the noodle to the
living room.



The two of them did not have so many rules.

They sat cross-legged on the blanket and ate on the coffee table.

"Crystal, have you found the job?"

"I still have some savings.Tomorrow, I will go to a big company in the west of the city for the secondary
interview.I should be able to enter..."

They chatted casually as they nibbled on the noodles.

"Christina, we'll go to the department store later and get some fresh ingredients.We're almost out of
eggs, beef and milk.We're going to stock up on some stuff.By the way, that department store has been
offering discounts on a lot of items for its anniversary.I have coupons."

Crystal put down her chopsticks and excitedly went to look for the coupons in her bag to check if they
were expired...

"That's great.With these coupons and the discount, I basically get the food for free!"

Christina, on the other hand, was very quiet, listening to her talk about the daily necessities she wanted
to buy.

"What, You marry into a rich family and start to disdain the life of an ordinary citizen like me?"

After finishing the noodles, they packed up and held the car keys, drove to the department store.

"No, I think your life is great."

Christina sat in the passenger seat, and she said calmly.

When she and Betty left the Dickens Family, they just wanted to live a simple life, happy life.



It was very ordinary but precious life.She and Patrick had never lived like that.

Crystal drove her car smoothly and suddenly laughed.

"You want Patrick to go shopping with you, buy food and fish.Hahaha, I can't even imagine that scene."

With Patrick's background, he would not spend his time on such trivial matters.He could just ask the
cook to make whatever he wanted to eat.

"He cooks.He knows how to cook noodles and make soup."

"Really?"

Crystal drove the car to the underground parking lot of the department store.

After stopping steadily, she turned around and looked at her with disbelief.

"Is he so omnipotent?"

Christina remembered the time when he fried soft-shelled crabs for her and was scolded by Old Master
Mr.Hopkins for his lack of common sense.

The pregnant women couldn't eat crabs.

Her eyes were full of delights.

But she pretended to complain, "Maybe it was his little hobby when he was bored."

Crystal saw that the happiness in her eyes.It was clear that she cared about Patrick.

"Are you really going to stay with me for the next few days and ignore him?"

She heard that Patrick seemed to be sick.



"Yes."

Christina grunted perfunctorily and dragged her into the mall.

When they were checking out, She threw out a credit card with great pride.

"I want to use this credit card."

It was Patrick that gave her.

Crystal was happy to see it happen.

Since Patrick was so rich, she would be stupid not to use his card.

At the same time, Crystal was relieved that Patrick and Christina merely had quarrel and they would be
fine sooner or later.

If Christina was not familiar with someone, she wouldn't spend his money.

If she was familiar with someone, she would treat him with sincerity.

"I'll cook dinner tonight." Crystal was surprised.

"I don't think I've offended you lately, do I?"

"I can cook some simple dishes.Don't view the food I cook as poison! I am not that useless!"

They brought back two bags of ingredients.

When Crystal saw that she was really serious about marinating meat in the kitchen, she sensed some
disappointment when Christina said she wasn't useless.



She knew that Christina had been bothering about 'mistress' lately, She didn't know what Barbara had
said to her.

But judging by her current situation, she must have provoked her.

Or else Christina wouldn't be bothered by her so much crystal thought about it and gave her a
suggestion.

"That Barbara is hard to deal with since she can become a regional manager.When the child is born,
you can find a chance to let Patrick kick her out of the company!"

Since she was the best friend of Christina, Christina's enemy was her enemy.

enemy stirred the marinade sauce expressionlessly.

Suddenly, she exerted too much force and the sauce splashed all over the floor.

"I've received two messages in the past few days, both about Barbara..."

She went to get a mop to clean up the sauce on the floor and showed the messages to Crystal.

"Patrick defended Barbara twice, but who else would it be but her!"

She was a little angry.

Crystal glanced at her phone.

"He blamed you for going out on your own and said you didn't get hurt anyway."

"But Barbara lied.I don't know if she was playing a prank to get me to make me argue with Patrick, or if
she was up to something."



"This looks like a prank.You didn't get hurt for the time being.But..."

As she spoke, Crystal remembered something.

"By the way, I remember that a fake base station can forge numbers to call and text users..."

"What? Really?"

"I'm not sure, but you really should talk to him about it, lest something bad happens in the future."
