Chapter 530

Along the long, carved corridor, Christina strode quickly from Eastern Garden to the end of Western

Gurden. When she saw the large violet flowers, she was even more confident. She walked to a door

and slammed it. “Brianna, open the door!”

“Brianna, open the door immediately!”

Christina slammed the door again, eager to prove herself.

There were some people behind Christina, including Chandler and Charles. Patrick was watching her

movements at this moment and could not help but frown.When the servants of Western Garden saw

such a scene, they did not dare to make a sound. Some of them sneaked away to send news secretly.

“Oh, what’s the big day today? Why are there a large group of people coming to bully an idiot?”

Ms. Hopkins also lived in Western Garden. When she heard the servant say that Christina was coming,

she immediately came out to join in the fun. Ms. Hopkins spoke without any scruples.

Christina ignored her and continued to shout at the door, “Brianna Hopkins!”

But no matter how Christina shouted, there was still no movement inside the door.

Christina’s face darkened and she almost lost the patience.

“… Do you want me to kick the door like last time?” Christina gritted her teeth.

Patrick clearly heard her muttering and frowned even tighter. It meant that it was not the first time

Christina had come to Western Garden to trouble Brianna.

Patrick was about to say something when a hurried figure rushed over from the other side of the

corridor. “Patrick, how can you let her bully your sister!”

Judy didn’t even comb her hair properly. A few strands of hair fell behind her neck, When Judy heard

the news, she quickly put on a coat and rushed over.

Knowing that Judy was targeting her, Christina explained quickly, “… I just wanted to find her out and

let her clarify something.”

“People will think you are a gangster from the old society leading a group of people here to extort a

confession from Brianna by torture.”

judy looked angry and scolded Christina in the air of a senior,

“Don’t you know what Brianna has done? She made a mess in Eastern Garden. Now she even came to

our Western Garden to make a scene. What a disgrace!”

Christina suddenly said that she was coming to Western Garden to confront Brianna. She was so fierce

that she would definitely scare Brianna, who was already introverted and autistic.

Charles knew Christina well. He quietly tugged at her sleeve and lowered his voice, “… Don’t scare

her.”

Christina kept a straight face and she did not say anything more.

Patrick turned to look at the corner. There stood a few servants in Western Garden who did not dare to

approach them… “Go in and see if Brianna is inside.” He gave an order to Aunt Zamani.

Aunt Zamani was the housekeeper of Western Garden, which was usually very quiet and had no

special business. It was far away from Eastern Garden, so she rarely saw Patrick and Christina.

“Yes… yes… Okay… okay…”

Aunt Zamani was a little flustered when she met Patrick’s cold eyes and she immediately nodded.

Aunt Zamani walked forward with small steps. First, she knocked on Brianna’s door gently, then took

out the spare key to the room, slowly opened the lock, and gently opened the ancient wooden door.

The people in Western Garden were relatively experienced in taking care of Brianna. They could not

disturb Brianna suddenly when they entered her room. Otherwise, Brianna would be nervous and even

sick from the shock.

Brianna was indeed in the room. When the door opened, people outside could clearly see Brianna

huddled in the corner of the room, her thin body next to a large potted plant. She squatted on the

ground with her hands on her head, trembling.

She looked quite pitiful.

Christina did scare Brianna when she suddenly knocked on the door like that.

Only Christina was disdainful and she scolded in a low voice, “… Pretending again.”

Knowing that these people must sympathize with Brianna, Christina didn’t want to let her go. Today,

Christina must figure it out. She turned around and said domineeringly, “I have to make it clear to her

face to face now!”

“… Let’s talk about it at night.”

Even Chandler couldn’t help but sympathize Brianna, and he didn’t believe that Brianna nad anyung to

do with the saffron.

Christina knew that they would not believe it and she was furious. “The large area outside is full of

saffron. I’m not lying!”

“She admitted it herself that day. She said that she had mixed saffron with all the tonics that I was

going to give Crystal…”

Ordinary people really didn’t know much about saffron. The large violet flowers outside were in full

bloom. The core of the flower was red, and the slender stamen was the part used for medicine.

“What’s going on?”

Patrick had his own judgements. Hearing Christina say this, he first glanced at the large violet flowers,

frowned and thought for a while, then called the servants of Western Garden over.

“… There’s no need to ask them. This is really saffron.”

Judy looked very angry. She pointed to the blooming violet flowers in the yard and turned to look at

Christina angrily. “These flowers have been planted since you married into the Hopkins family. It has

been two years.”

“… Just because of these flowers, you blamed Brianna? If something were to happen, it would have

happened long ago. It’s nonsense.”

Why did Judy try so hard to help Brianna in front of everyone? Because they were in the same boat.

Judy was the nominal madame of the Hopkins family. The only pawn Judy could use now was this

“daughter.”

“… I’m sure Senior Mr. Hopkins won’t allow you to mess around like this. You guys are even here to

bully Brianna together.”

Judy took Senior Mr. Hopkins as an excuse directly. Everyone knew that Senior Mr. Hopkins had

always loved Brianna, his granddaughter. novelbin

After being scolded by Judy, Charles and the others suddenly felt a little guilty. Brianna was indeed a

poor sister. They felt they shouldn’t have messed around with Christina.

Christina was anxious because no one believed her.

She grabbed Patrick’s hand beside her and lowered her voice, but she still emphasized, “I really didn’t

lie. Last time, Brianna did admit it herself. If you don’t believe me, ask her.”

“… Christina, forget it.” Charles couldn’t bear it.

For so many years, the only person who could get close to Brianna without disturbing her was Patrick.

er wa

Patrick looked at his wife beside him with a stubborn expression of “I’m wronged and I’m not lying.” He

stepped into Brianna’s boudoir, and the people outside couldn’t help but open their eyes wide.

Before Patrick could get close, Brianna seemed to sense it. She slowly raised her head and looked at

him. A few seconds later, she said, “… Brother.”

Before Patrick said anything, Brianna called him in a low and timid voice.

Patrick nodded as usual.

Brianna looked at him with clear and obedient eyes, waiting patiently for him to ask questions like a

primary school student.

“Brianna, did you tell your sister-in-law that you mixed saffron with Crystal’s tonics?” Patrick’s tone was

very calm, as if he was chatting with her.

Brianna answered him obediently, “I didn’t.”

She looked at Patrick, her eyes clear and bright, especially pure. “It’s not me.”

When Patrick heard what she said, he looked thoughtful with deep eyes.

“She’s lying!”

Christina also heard Brianna’s answer at the door. She rushed in excitedly.

When Christina suddenly barged in, Brianna’s eyes shrank in shock and she was at a loss. “… I’m

sorry…” It seemed that Brianna had done something wrong and was afraid of being blamed.

“Enough!”

Patrick turned around with a serious face and shouted at Christina.

Christina stopped and took a few deep breaths, her expression still very dissatisfied.

Patrick looked at Christina angrily, “Apologize to Brianna immediately.”

He would not indulge Christina. As usual, his sister Brianna would answer all his questions. He could

tell from Brianna’s eyes that she was not lying, and Brianna had never lied.

Then, Christina was wrong.

Ms. Hopkins, who had been watching the scene outside the door, was both excited and surprised. It

was the first time she saw her nephew scold Christina.

There was a sudden silence outside the door, as if everyone was waiting for Christina to apologize.

Christina’s face was livid. She clenched her fist, slowly adjusted her breathing, and finally said a word,

“No.”
