Spoil My Errant Wife

Chapter 416 

After Geoffrey's friends ate the birthday cake, they were sent home.

In the evening, the Stephenson family invited Patrick and the others to a big hotel for dinner.

"I was going to cook it at home.Patrick didn't come to Geoffrey's birthday last year.Just now, my mom said that she was afraid that you wouldn't be used to the food."

They arrived at the hotel they had booked.

Crystal and Christina went to the bathroom and had a chat.

After all, Geoffrey was a child.

Patrick was cold and hated socializing.It was normal for him not to attend these small engagements especially.

In contrast, Charles and the others were more approachable, "Actually, people in Hopkins family are not as difficult to get along with as you think."

Christina muttered.

Crystal smiled.

"Compared to a high family like the Hopkins family, the Stephenson family will feel the pressure."

"Crystal, is there any pressure for you to marry into the Stephenson family?" Christina asked with concern.

"I think Chandler's parents are easy to get along with.How do they treat you? Do you have any problems with your mother-in-law?" Christina thought of Patrick's mother.

Although she had little contact with her and they didn't have a conflict for the time being.

In fact, Christina and Judy didn't get along well.

They would get the pleasantries when they met.

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was always difficult to handle.

Crystal almost swore, "Chandler's parents are definitely the best and rarest in the world.They never make things difficult for me and always think of me, much better than my own mother.I like them very much."

After washing her hands, Christina took a tissue, wiped her wet hands, and turned around.

Seeing her loyal look, she felt funny and patted her on the shoulder.

"I'm glad that you have a good life in the Stephenson family, don't hold back and tell me if you feel uncomfortable"

Crystal and Chandler got their marriage certificate quickly.

Crystal's family was complicated, with the heartless mother and stepfather, and stepbrother.

Christina was glad to see she marry a good man.However, Crystal had used to enduring.

Whatever happened, she had always wronged herself.

"Chandler is not bad and he is smart, but."

Christina looked at her and said frankly, "I think Charles is better than Chandler.If you marry Charles, there's nothing to worry about."

Charles definitely loved his wife.

"It depends on fate.Mr.Shepherd has so many beautiful girlfriends.How dare I covet him? He is like a brother"

Crystal couldn't help but laugh when she thought of Charles being urged to marry by his mother.

Christina smiled.

"That's true.Charles is a playboy who had so many girlfriends.He has done his own evil.He will definitely be despised by his wife"

"My mother-in-law just said that she hoped to find a nice girl for Charles, saying that he used to be playful.The men who like children and animals aren't bad-natured.If he got married, he would be a good husband."

As Christina and Crystal teased Mr.Shepherdand, they walked out of the bathroom side by side to the private room.

Seen afar, the door of the private room was open, and the waiters were serving the dishes one by one.

In the corridor, Mrs.Stephenson, holding a bowl and spoon, chased after Geoffrey, who was running ahead.

"Geoffrey, be good.Have another sip"

"No."

Geoffrey complained that the medicine soup was bitter.

Seeing this, Crystal rushed over and stopped him.Crystal said sternly, "Geoffrey, go back to your seat and drink the medicine soup on your own.Don't run around in public.Don't you know the rules?"

Geoffrey stopped, unwilling, and he resisted in a low voice, "I'm not sick.Why do you let me take the medicine? I won't drink it."

"There are a lot of students who are sick in the epidemic season.Drinking this can improve immunity.Otherwise, your grandparents will worry about you if you are sick."

Crystal looked like a serious parent.

"Don't let your grandmother run after you, holding a bowl.You have grown up.Your classmates will laugh at you if they found this."

In the past, Crystal thought that Geoffrey was smart with some arrogance.She usually indulged him.

But after she married Chandler, she felt that the Stephenson family had spoiled him so only she could teach him a lesson.

"Crystal, this medicine is bitter.It's difficult for the child to drink"

To avoid his grandson being wronged, Mrs.Stephenson quickly came over to smooth things over.

Crystal took the bowl of medicinal soup and handed it directly to Geoffrey.She ordered with a straight face, "Take it.Go back and sit down.Then finish it!’’

Geoffrey seemed to have been dealt with before.

With head down, he had no choice but to run back to the private room, holding the bowl.

Seeing that he was obedient, Crystal turned around.

"Mom, Geoffrey is smart.He knows that drinking this is good for his health.He sees that you are soft- hearted and refuses to drink it."

Looking at the grandson's unhappy figure, Mrs.Stephenson sighed without saying anything.

Seeing this quietly, Christina felt strange.

The Stephenson family was a scholarly family and should know the etiquette, but Mrs.Stephenson was doting on her grandson.

In contrast, Senior Mr.Hopkins seemed to have dealt with Patrick back then.

How could she be so indulgent?The luxurious private room was about 100 square meters and spacious.

As this hotel was under the Hopkins Group, so it was easy to have booked for a VIP room.

There was a hanging crystal lamp at the entrance.

The living room was on the left, with a fruit platter placed there.

The beautiful waitress was making tea.

Charles and the others were chatting and drinking tea.

The dining room was on the right.There were 38 various dishes placed on the table.The six waiters pulled out their chairs, waiting for the guests to sit on.

"Stop running around.Come in for dinner" RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Chandler called out to his son.

Although his expression was a little serious, his tone was gentle.

Mr.Stephenson, who was in the living room, stood up and walked towards Geoffrey.He took the bow from his little hand and looked at his grandson's unhappy face.He smiled kindly, coaxing and educating at the same time.

"Does this black medicine soup taste bitter?"

“Yes"

Geoffrey was close to his grandfather, so his tone sounded aggrieved.

Mr.Stephenson carried Geoffry and put him in the child's chair.

"Grandpa will drink it with you, sharing the bitterness."

Geoffrey saw his grandfather take an empty bowl and pour half of it.He felt awkward and had to drink following the rule.

The others took their seats one after another.

Christina was surprised to see how Mr.Stephenson taught his grandson.She muttered to herself, "Fortunately, Geoffrey is not spoiled by his family"

Charles, sitting on her left, heard her words and complained.

"I heard that Miss Dickens was even worse when she was a child.She fought with her classmates whenever they didn't agree with her."

Christina had a glorious childhood when she was doted on by her grandfather.

So she was stubborn and willful and picky about food.

Most importantly, she liked to fight.

The parents of the kindergarten students were afraid of her.

Christina knew that she was not a good child when she was young, so she decided to shut up and eat.

Patrick, who was sitting on the right, picked up a piece of fish for her and glanced at Charles.

Patrick said coldly, "She fought because those people deserved a beating."

When Charles heard this, his expression was complicated.

Hearing what Patrick said, Christina immediately became confident and snorted at Charles.

"On the first day of kindergarten, those people pulled my braid.My grandfather taught me not to cry when you were bullied, you should fight back.Besides, they often bullied Derek.They deserved to be beaten up."

When she was a child, she mostly fought for Derek.

Patrick was a little taken aback when he heard her suddenly mention the name "Derek".

Charles realized that Christina's grandfather used to be protective of her, and the scariest thing was that her husband, Patrick, was so.

In short, it always was others's fault.

His wife was absolutely right.

Alas, he shouldn't have offended Christina.

Charles was complaining in his heart while eating.

At the table, the Stephensons first asked Geoffrey what he liked and coaxed him to eat more green peppers and carrots.

"It's my birthday.I don't want to eat these."

Geoffrey was trying to decline.

Crystal was direct.She put a spoonful of stir-fried carrots and kidney beans with lilies in his bowl and said, "Eat."

Geoffrey became unhappy.

He glanced at Crystal's serious expression and stared at a large bowl of carrots with a sullen expression.

"I don't want..."

"Geoffrey, you always don't eat carrots and green peppers..."

Just as Crystal was about to speak, Chandler took his son's small bowl and ate it for himself.

"It's okay if he doesn't like it.Anyway, it doesn't affect his health if he doesn't eat it."

Crystal looked a little angry.

Even Chandler doted on the child like this.

Then she heard Chandler say, "Look, Christina is pickier about food.She's good."

Crystal looked up, speechless.

Christina was trying to take out all the red dates in the soup.She didn't like the red dates that had been cooked.

"What?"

Christina felt that everyone was looking at her and she even asked without feeling ashamed.

Everyone smiled.

Christina took a big lobster for Geoffrey and smiled.

"Try it.It tastes good"

Geoffrey had a bright smile.

"Thank you." He liked seafood.

"Christina, you'd better not raise your twins on your own, or what will they become when they grow up."

"What do you mean?"

Charles picked her up.

"You have to know yourself.Don't set a bad example for your sons"

He stopped in mid-sentence.

Patrick suddenly took away a special stewed abalone dish in front of Charles.

It was the most famous in this hotel and it was Charles's favorite.

Mr.Shepherd was never picky about food, but he had his favorite.

But now, Charles watched as Patrick took it away.

Patrick said firmly in a low voice, "Charles doesn't like this.Help him"

He forked the abalone and put it on Christina's plate.

Christina was happy and ate with relish.

Charles's face darkened.

As expected, Patrick defended Christina.
