Chapter 399

Charles was busy sending someone to the snow mountain to look for the pocket watch.

When he passed the examination room, he saw Christina coming out of the room.

Her expression was a little strange.

"What's wrong?"

"Did something happen to you during your checkup?" He shouted at her.

At that time, she was thinking about something.

Hearing his sudden voice, she looked up slightly in a daze and reacted dully, "I'm fine."

He frowned, "You look distracted.What are you thinking?"

"Is there something wrong?"

Looking at her expression carefully, he felt that she was preoccupied by some troubles.

She was normal when she came down from the snow mountain.What was she stimulated by?

"Are you unhappy to meet Patrick here?" He guessed.

After all, they had quarreled before and parted unhappily.He also knew that it was an unforgivable thing
for Patrick to hide the children.

And it was normal for Christina to be angry and ignore him.

"Christina, the airport here was basically grounded two days ago.Patrick flew here using an
airway.He..."



Noticing the change in her expression, he wanted to say something to let her know, "When we went
abroad, we didn't inform him.Actually, I had already guessed that he would send someone to pay
attention to us.So when we were trapped in the hotel, I was very relieved.Because I knew he would
definitely come over"

Christina lowered her head all the time.

In the end, he added, "Patrick cares about you very much"

Pursing her lips, she glanced at him and whispered, "I know”

He knew her temperament.

Patrick had completely misused what he should do to her.She needed to tell her everything clearly.

Instead, concealment made her angry.

As for the knife wound on Patrick's shoulder, they were smart enough not to ask too much afterwards.

There was no doubt that it must have something to do with Christina.

Otherwise, no one could hurt him so easily.

While Lucy was dealing with some aftermath work, a note-taker came to ask her about the knife
wound.

She replied very succinctly and accurately, "Self-harm."

Seeing that she didn't want to speak, Charles felt embarrassed and was silent for a while.

After all, things about emotions were complicated.



Thus, he didn't mention Patrick anymore.He asked her to have a rest, "If there's nothing wrong with
your checkup, then you should have a rest early.I left you a room with hot water and clean clothes.You
can look for Crystal and Geoffrey..."

At this moment, a man walked over quickly and reported something to him.

They were about to take a high-powered electromagnetic device to snow mountain to find the lost
pocket watch.

"Christina, I still have something else to do..." He said hurriedly and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute." She suddenly stopped him.

"Are you going back to snow mountain to look for that pocket watch?" She asked hesitantly.

"Yes, the snowstorm has stopped.Although it's night, we have to bring high- powered lighting
equipment and some magnet equipment to find.The pocket watch is made of metal.It should be able to
be found.The longer time passes, the thicker the snow becomes..."

Seeing that he was so serious, she couldn't help but interrupt him, "It's unnecessary.Have a rest."

"It's okay for us men to stay up for a few nights.We're not very tired," He said, looking a little tired.

"If we don't look for it now, Patrick will still send a lot of men to find it...You don't know that, in order to
find his pocket watch before, he searched for it in the Flame Bar which was a 30 story building.All the
employees looked for it for three days.He cared about it very much"

Clenching something in her right hand, she tightened her grip slightly.

As if hesitating, she looked at him and suddenly asked an irrelevant question, "Do you know why did
Patrick work as a teaching assistant in C City?"



Charles didn't understand why she suddenly asked it.

He smiled vaguely, "Don't you know?"

She knew something, but...To be honest, she didn't particularly understand and felt insecure.

He told her what he knew, "I also think it's incredible.I recently found out from Senior Mr.Hopkins that
Patrick hated girls since he was a child.He didn't have the romantic talent.Actually, he went to your
school to be a teaching assistant for half a year.But thinking about it, who's not stupid in their youth?"

"But it's not surprising that you don't know him.Even if he was famous in your school at that time, and
he was the teaching assistant of your elective course, you must have skipped his class.You don't have
him in your eyes.Even if you meet him in the school, you will miss him:"

In fact, she had his class once.

At that time, she went to work and do the course at the same time.

That day, she was so tired that she fell asleep on the desk.

She vaguely remembered that day when she was called out in public, the teaching assistant on the
stage seemed very angry.

She was took to the teaching office.

And she did not look at the teaching assistant and thought that she would be scolded.

However, he did not scold her.Her memory was too vague.

She only remembered that in the end, he asked her to lie on his table.



When she woke up, the office was empty and she was wearing a man's coat.

It never occurred to her that the teaching assistant was Patrick.

Seeing that her expression was confused, Charlie was curious about one thing, "Christina, Patrick has
been a teaching assistant in your school for half a year.He has worked so hard to transfer.Did
he...really not tell you anything?"

For example, did he tell her he loved her? The line of English engraved on the pocket watch.

Did that count as what he wanted to say to her? He wanted to say that he engraved the sentence word
by word forcefully.--I want to tell you that how much I love you.

[I want to tell you how much I love you.]

"No."

She suppressed her emotions.

Suddenly, she handed out the pocket watch which was in her right hand, "I don't believe in the so-
called love.I only believe in companionship"

Hearing this, Charles looked at the gold pocket watch in her palm with a surprised expression.

"Why are you holding the pocket watch?"

Without answering him, she stuffed the pocket watch into his hand, "Don't tell Patrick.Just say you
found it."
