Chapter 184
In the end, Old Master Mr.Hopkins said nothing.
Christina was very confused and wanted to catch up with him as he walked out of the dining room with his walking stick.
But as soon as she took a step, the old steward in front of her made a gesture to indicate that she should not come forward.
Christina stood still, feeling even more anxious.
They always didn't want to tell her anything.
She just wanted to know more about Patrick...
Ding ding - As the phone in her coat pocket vibrated, she received a new message.
"Patrick is at the golden.A club."
Christina held her phone and fell silent after reading the text message on the screen.
Barbara sent the short message.
"Is Patrick at the golden.A club now?"
Goalden.A club was a high-end private clubhouse and Christina knew about it, because Cory tricked her into spending a night with him in this club where she met Patrick.
She frowned and became concerned.
Looking at the new text message, she lowered her eyes and stared at the handwritten letter that Patrick had sent her and the precious platinum ruby necklace with the word "chance" on it.
Her heart was beating faster and she had a bad feeling.
"The vice president of the group said he wouldn't be back until tomorrow, so why did Barbara text me..."
What tricks did she want to play? On the last rainy day, she received an inexplicable text message asking her to go to Gordon Hotel.
But after that, Patrick insisted that it had nothing to do with Barbara.
She was confused but managed to calm down and called Barbara back.
"The number you dialed is currently on the line.Please wait..."
There were the auto-responder's replies.
That made Christina feel bad.
She clutched her phone tightly and kept breathing in and out, telling herself to calm down.
Calm down! But she couldn't calm down! After the vice president hung up on her yesterday, she couldn't get through.
She encountered many things, including him saying that she should wait for Patrick to wake up, the strange talk of the old man at home and this text message from Barbara.
They always said she couldn't help.
She didn't want to cause trouble for anyone, but she was nervous at home.She called the driver from the Hopkinses and immediately drove to golden.A club.
Whether Barbara was playing a trick on her or not, whether the text message was true or not, she had to go over and take a look as the car moved steadily forward, she silently looked at the scene outside the window and thought of Patrick's strange behavior recently. Her mind was in a mess.
"What's wrong with you?" She murmured.
Her eyes were full of tears.She felt anxious and self-loathing for she couldn't help him in anything.She felt that she was useless.
Forty minutes later, she arrived at golden.A club.
After Christina got out of the car, the driver of the Hopkinses led her to the front desk of the club.
When the receptionist heard the driver's words, she immediately picked up the internal phone and called the head of the club.
Then they talked for a while.
"Hello, Young Madam." Christina guessed that the club had a close business relationship with the Hopkinses.
They were very respectful and Patrick seemed to like to rest here.
"Is Patrick here now?" She asked hesitantly. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
The head of the clubhouse did not mean to hide anything, but simply nodded.
"Yes, Young Master Patrick is in room 2008..."
When Christina heard this answer, she had the mixed feelings.He's really here.
Christina forced a smile and coldly ordered.
"Take me to him."
"Yes"
She followed the person in charge into an elegant European- style corridor.
Delicate crystal lights hung on both sides of the corridor, casting the gentle yellow light.
It was very quiet here.
There were thick red carpets under her feet.She did not meet any other guests on the way.It seemed that this was the VIP area.
"Give me the room card."
When she arrived at room 2008 and noticed that the person in charge looked a little embarrassed, Christina directly asked for the room card and asked him to leave.
He heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Young Madam, if you need anything, please ring the bell.I'll leave first"
They all knew that Patrick had a hot temper.
Without his permission, most people did not dare to disturb him.
If his wife came to him, it would be different.
They were well-informed in their social circle and needed to know some special people to avoid offending others, especially Hopkins Family.
It was said that Patrick's wife was very pampered and difficult to get along with.
But now it seemed that she was more easy-going than ordinary women...
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn around and remind her, "Young Madam, Miss Parker is also here..."
Beep - As Christina swiped the room card, the door opened.
Miss Parker.
As soon as the head of the club said "Miss Parker", Christina straightened her back and saw Barbara through the crack in the door.
"Barbara..."
She mumbled the name in a complicated tone and stared at the woman sitting by the bed in the room who bent over as if she was busy with something.
The sound of footsteps made the people in the room turn around vigilantly...
Barbara looked surprised.
"Why are you here?"
"You asked me to come over."
Christina stepped into the suite, held back some emotions and looked over to the bed.
The man on the bed had already woken up.
Patrick was indeed here.He looked at her at the door and did not speak immediately.
They just looked on in silence.
Christina suddenly found it funny.
Did she catch a cheater? Strictly speaking, it should not be the case, at least because their clothes are intact, and there were no misleading gestures...
It was only Barbara who looked worried and affectionate, sitting by the bed and taking care of her husband.
The other woman worriedly looked after her husband.
Christina sneered.She couldn't be angry and even had to thank her.
"Why are you here?"
Patrick got up from the bed and leaned his back against the headboard.He asked the same question with the hoarse voice.
"Barbara asked me to come over"
She was indifferent and walked towards him step by step.She didn't lose temper like before and repeated calmly.
The man on the bed frowned and glanced at the woman beside the bed.
Barbara hastily retorted, "I didn't ask you to come over"
"I received a text message from you"
"I didn't text you."
For a moment, the atmosphere was a little tense.
Christina refrained herself from becoming agitated and gritted her teeth and said.
"Miss Parker, do you have any missed calls from me?"
"You did call me 50 minutes ago, but the assistant in the group was busy talking to me.I didn't have time to answer..."
"What a coincidence!" Christina shouted angrily.
She could no longer pretend to be calm.
She was angry, not because of what Barbara had done with him in this room, but because Barbara had lied to her time and time again!
"Get out"
The man leaning against the bed had a serious headache.He closed his eyes tightly and shouted, "Get out now!"
Christina was stunned and looked back at him and glared at him fiercely.You want to chase me away!
