Chapter 743

Patrick said straightforwardly, “I’ll get someone to do what you want right now.”

Raphael had mentioned earlier that he wanted to ask the large amount of cash and property shares

that Derek had given Christina back, but she refused.

Raphael said with contentment, “Actually, I can keep staying in Hopkins family.”

“Those assets belong to Derek, and you have every reason to get them.” Patrick now wished he could

drive this man away immediately.

The next day, Christina, who heard from Nanny Faang that Raphael was leaving the Hopkins family,

asked in surprise, “Is he leaving?”

Unlike Derek, Raphael had no other relatives. Where was he going?

However, with Raphael’s strange temper, it didn’t seem strange for him to leave suddenly.

However, Nanny Faang sighed, “I don’t know what happened. Suddenly, he left early in the morning.”

Raphael was favored for his good looks. Nanny Faang and all the females in Hopkins family were

deeply attracted by him. While they were free, they couldn’t help peeking at him from time to time.

“Patrick, why did he suddenly leave? He’s not going back to the island, is he?” Christina asked. She

was used to looking for Patrick if something was bothering her.

Patrick’s face was complicated. He was sitting at the big desk in the study, reviewing a document. He

looked up at her and thought for a while, then said, “I drove him away with the money.”

Christina was in a daze for a moment.

At night, she saw Raphael on the headline. After consulting the news carefully, she was pissed off.

Angrily, she went to Patrick and scolded, “You! Did you return the money to him?”

Patrick had been back for a while, but he did not show up at the company. He had been staying in the

Hopkins family. He was casually working on some project documents in the study.

“Derek worked so hard to save it. How could you give it all to him?”

Christina grabbed a large thick of books from the bookshelf and slapped it on the table, which shocked

the servants passing by outside. As they expected, Christina and Patrick had a fall again after a short

makeup. They hurried up and stayed away from the scene.

“Patrick, you’re holding a candle to the devil!” she shouted, leaning closer to him.

Patrick was aware that their best way to deal with women when they lost their temper was to remain

silent.

Christina glared at him, waiting for him to say something!

“Take a look!” She patted her phone, which had been soaked in water countless times, on his desk.novelbin

She pointed to a piece of hot news on the screen and raised her voice. “Look at what Raphael has

done all these days!”

Christina said sadly, “What a bustard. He lost all the money that Derek had saved so hard.”

Patrick glanced at the news, slightly surprised. Raphael invested all the 2 billion dollars on Derek’s

account on an unpromising stock.

He didn’t feel uncomfortable at all squandering others’ money.

Christina expected him to say how to recover the unfinished portion of the real estate, but Patrick said

casually, “Derek actually didn’t work that hard to earn this money.”

Her face was livid.

She was speechless, thinking that they were not talking about the same same.

She snapped, “It’s best to lose everything. It’s time for him to experience the hardships of the real

world. I will never help him!”

Raphael made the headlines for the recent issues. The major media were very enthusiastic about the

news of this mysterious tycoon, and whether there was any gossip about him. In this way, they paid

less attention to Patrick and Charles.

“Raphael, you guys must have heard about what he had done recently. Good for him.”

Gary and his friends were having a party at the club with Christina invited. These guys had strongly

believed that she was Patrick’s wife.

Christina said with a sullen face, “He spent Derek’s money.”

“He was so unlucky to have something to do with Raphael.” Although everyone sympathized with

Derek, they couldn’t help laughing.

Lucy was the only one sitting by the side drinking a large glass of tombstone wine. She said to herself,

“That’s good. This could spice up Derek’s life.”

“Lucy, you seem to know him very well. When did you get to know him so well?”

Lucy said truthfully, “I helped boss investigate his love rival a long time ago. I actually know everything

about him.”

Christina was curious and wanted to ask her a few more questions, but there was a commotion at the

door, which attracted their attention.

“Hey! Chandler, what do you mean?”

“Crystal is a good girl. How can you take her hand and hold her waist… How dare you kiss her in front

of us?”

Crabbie was hateful to see others showing affection in public. He had been single for 32 years, after all.

How could Chandler, the heartless man get happiness so quickly?

Alan echoed, “Crystal, take a closer look at me. Actually, I’m much cuter than Chandler. Open your

eyes wider.”

Crystal blushed and tried to get rid of Chandler’s hand, but Chandler didn’t let her. He insisted on

holding her hands.

“We’re going to remarry,” Chandler announced.

Alan snorted, “Shameless!”

Scott, who had been impatient and loyal, thumped his chest and roared, “Chandler, you’re wishful

thinking. Did you break your head on the island? Didn’t you see how many outstanding men we have

here? How could Crystal fall in love with you again? Listen, we’ve been through life and death together

at least with Crystal. We’re friends. Don’t try to force her.”

Charles also smiled, “Crystal, congratulations. You get so many brothers overnight.”

Crystal, embarrassed, wanted to laugh.

Only Christina and Lucy were clear that Crystal and Chandler were unable to control their feelings

towards each other when they were on the boat. It was estimated that the time they spent on the island

made them understand what was true love.

“She’s too good for Chandler,” sighed Lucy. The Stephenson family and Chandler didn’t leave her a

good impression.

She was used to being free. She felt a chill at the thought that if she was as humble as Crystal to

another family. She found marriage troublesome.

Christina had no thoughts about the remarriage of Crystal and Chandler. She was supportive as long

as they were happy

She suddenly asked, “Lucy, have you ever thought about getting married?”

Lucy stopped drinking and turned to look at her as if she were an idiot.

Christina felt that this question was a little stupid. She chuckled and asked, “Then what kind of guy do

you like?” After thinking about it, she immediately added, “Or girls.”

She thought that a tough person like Lucy wouldn’t answer such a boring question. Unexpectedly, she

did some thinking

What kind of person did she like?

“Slave,” Lucy replied.

Christina was lost for words.

“A servant?”

Lucy explained seriously, “Yes, a slave who washes and cooks for me, and massages me.”

There was no such person.

Christina laughed and realized that the question she asked was indeed boring.
