Female Novel
Chapter 809
Patrick went downstairs for a meeting.
The secretary informed the managers of the North American and Asia Pacific region had arrived. There
was an important group meeting this afternoon, and Patrick needed to attend and listen.
"I'll go back to Hopkins family later myself."
Christina realized that she was disturbing his work and quickly got up.
Patrick looked back at her and wanted to say something, but he failed to express himself. He was
shocked by her high-level "Love words." Christina suddenly ran over and said to him, "I dreamed that
you didn't want to stay with me anymore." He was a little overwhelmed.
It couldn't be discovered from his expression. He looked around and wanted to let Charles accompany
her. That guy escaped so fast. Probably he had found that Christina was a little strange today. Patrick
frowned but didn't know what was wrong with her today.
"President."
Seeing Patrick was standing still, the two assistants called him hesitantly.
Patrick came back to his senses and ordered, "Ask the company's driver to take you back."
"I know." Christina nodded at him.
Patrick took the documents from the secretary, with his usual cold expression in a business-like
manner, and strode into the elevator.
Christina was very tired. In fact, if you look carefully, you would find she was harassed. She had been
sitting in the airport all night and didn't eat for almost the whole day. She rushed over in a hurry.
Compared to the female secretaries outside who were radiant, she was really haggard.
She was the only one in the spacious office, and she looked even more decadent as she nestled on the
sofa.
The lunch brought by Charles smelled delicious. Her stomach was growling. She was so hungry.
The heavy door of the office was knocked on twice.
The capable secretary in a gray suit brought some hot coffee to Christina and gestured to her to enjoy
it. Then she smiled and said, "Madam, there's a lounge. If you feel tired, you can rest inside. There's
also a bathroom inside."
Christina was stunned for a while. "Thank you."
Must admit that secretaries who worked here were very smart. She could tell at a glance that Christina
was tired. In little words, the secretary smiled and nodded at her; then turned around to leave, and
gently closed the door.
Anyone who can work with Patrick is smart and capable.
Without hesitation, Christina drank the coffee in one gulp, which was a little hot. The coffee was too
bitter, but now that she was hungry, her stomach finally felt better.
She turned around and walked into the lounge in Patrick's office cubicle. It was like a small suite with a
big bed in which the white sheets and pillows were neatly arranged. There were very few furnishings,
only a small balcony, a bathroom, a bathroom, and a cloakroom.
Christina had stayed up all night. She went into the bathroom to wash up and took a long breath with a
hot towel putting on her face.
"I'm hungry." Christina looked at the lunch on the small table in the office.
Hungry as she was, she would wait for Patrick to eat together. It was his lunch, and he was busy with
his work, so he definitely hadn't eaten lunch.
Putting her phone aside and charging, she lay on the big bed to rest for a while. If she could fall asleep,
she wouldn't be so hungry. When Patrick was done with his work, she would go home with him.
Christina slept soundly. It was already 7 pm when she was woken up by the alarm clock on her phone.
She was forgotten in this spacious office lonely.
"Does God think that I've done too many outrageous things in the past and I owe him too much?"
Christina found that Patrick had left. She muttered to herself sadly and felt very melancholy.
Ever since Lucy told her about those stupid things Patrick had done at school, Christina felt uneasy and
owed him so much, but what should she do? He had done so much for her in the past, and she had
nothing to repay.
Christina did not feel upset for long. Founding her phone was fully charged, she turned it on. Only then
did she realize that there were many missed calls, most of which were from her aunt. She asked her
why she had not returned to Hopkins family and was worried that she had taken the wrong flight or had
an accident.
"Where are you now?!" The voice was a little anxious.
A call came in so sudden that Christina was a little caught off guard. Patrick asked angrily.
"I, I'm still at the company."
Christina felt very silly to say this.
It seemed that Patrick didn't expect her to still be at the company. He was stunned for a moment but
didn't ask for details. He said directly, "Stay where you are now. Don't go anywhere. I'll go over now."
Christina tried to say something else, but her phone was hung up.
She sighed and felt as if she had done something wrong again. He was always angry easily.
Patrick should have rushed over in a hurry. Only 10 minutes later, he came back to the company.
Several employees working overtime on the top floor immediately stood up when they saw him. He
ignored them and strode towards his office. He pushed the door open, quickly turned on the light in the
room, and took a quick look to find the person he was looking for.
"What's going on?"
Seeing her standing in front of the french window and enjoying the scenery downstairs, he suddenly
relaxed. He walked over and asked in a strong tone.
Patrick frowned and wondered what happened when she went back to the Dickens house. Why was
she so strange today?
Christina didn't feel shy and told him directly, "I fell asleep in the lounge. I wanted to wait for you."
Wait for me.
Patrick didn't expect her to say that and said casually, "Go back if you're tired. You don't have to wait
for me."
Christina lowered her head. "Oh."novelbin
She was really strange today. Patrick had a strong feeling that he should figure out whether something
had happened when she went back to the Dickens family. She was avoiding his eyes, obviously a little
disappointed and unhappy.
Patrick thought for a moment and realized he had left her in the company. "I'm sorry." He suddenly
said.
He meant that he had left her in the company, so he apologized to her.
Christina thought she was hallucinating. She raised her head and found Patrick Hopkins's dark eyes
were looking at her and shining brightly.
"Oh, it's okay."
She suddenly felt a little embarrassed to look him in the eye.
Patrick felt that she was weird today, especially when she said she dreamed that he didn't want to stay
with her, so he promised her in a low and serious tone, "There won't be another time."
"Nothing."
Christina would not take such a small matter to heart, and even if he forgot her, she would go to him.
Patrick frowned again. Did someone of the Dickens family say something unpleasant to her? Just as he
was about to ask, Christina's phone rang. It was Betty who called worriedly to ask where she was and
why she hadn't answered the phone.
"I called Hopkins family and they said you hadn't arrived. Didn't you board the plane yesterday? Why
aren't you home yet"
"I made a mistake. The plane was this morning. I'm at the company now."
Christina told Betty the truth and said that she had been sitting at the airport all night.
"Haven't eaten all day?" Just as the phone was hung up, Patrick asked sarcastically.
"Hungry, hungry."
Hearing his word, she suddenly felt so hungry. Christina was not afraid and ignored Patrick's gloomy
expression. She rushed to the small table to take the lunch that Charles had brought. It was sushi,
which could not be eaten if it was left too long.
She felt pity and threw the Otoro sushi into the trash can. There were only 6 vegetable sushi rolls that
could still be eaten.
"It's cold. Don't eat it." Patrick strode forward and brushed her hand away.
"It's okay. It's okay. It can be eaten."
Christina ate the sushi roll in one bite. She was not persnickety and it tasted good. She looked up and
asked him seriously, "I'll give you half." She still remembered he hadn't had lunch yet.
Patrick was furious.
"You don't have to wait for me. If you're hungry, you can eat first. If you're tired, you can rest first. As
long as you take care of yourself, I'll..."
Patrick scolded her angrily. Before he finished his words, Christina stuffed a sushi roll into his mouth.
Patrick glared at her, but only to chew and swallow it slowly in the end.
Christina chuckled at him and said, "I want to wait for you."
Patrick stood straight in front of her. Suddenly, he got mixed feelings and couldn't answer.
