Chapter 834
Chapter 834
Hearing that Charles spoke to her in such a cute tone, May felt a little funny. After all, Charles was the
big boss that Henry had contracted at home. She thought that rich people were very aloof and difficult
to get along with and did not expect Charles to be so nice.
"Christina, is your husband a serious man?"
May could tell from Charles's tone that Christina's husband was difficult to get along with.
Christina didn't care much about it. "My husband is easygoing. Don't be afraid of him."
Charles was driving steadily, but he refuted Christina's words inwardly.
How could she have the face to say that Patrick was easy to get along with?
"May, your phone keeps ringing. Aren't you going to answer it?" Christina suddenly asked May.
Henry was so stubborn that he called over and over again.
May lowered her head awkwardly. "I'm sorry." She then turned off her phone.
"I turned on my phone to call Cindy..."
That got Christina's attention. "Cindy?"
"I haven't seen her for a long time. Is she in the country now? You told me before that she is married to
our junior schoolmate in primary school. How about inviting her to my place sometime? We can have a
party and enjoy ourselves. By the way, you can play with my twin sons."
Seeing that Christina was so hospitable, May gradually relaxed and began to chat with Christina about
Cindy and some funny stories of her high school years.
But what happened later was totally unexpected to May: When Charles drove into a magnificent gate, 4
security guards came down to greet them and open the door to welcome them in.
She saw a magnificent manor of more than ten thousand square meters in front of her. Inside the
manor, there were several large villas surrounded by green grasslands. Rivers and roads made of
natural rocks cut through the lawn in several directions. And there were servants working on the lawn.
In the distance, she even saw a golf course.
"Jesus." May was dumbfounded.
This manor was ten thousand times more luxurious than the ones she saw on TV.
It was like the royal palace in ancient Europe.
And this was Christina's house.

May was too shocked to speak.
Charles parked the car in the garage and opened the door for them very gentlemanly. He was not
surprised to see that May was stunned. He couldn't help but smile.
"May, this is where the Hopkins family, the owner of the IP&G Group, lives." Charles introduced to her
jokingly.
"Your former roommate, Christina, is the hostess here, so you are an honored guest. In the future, you
can live a fancy life together with her and put all your troubles aside."
May was speechless.
"The IP&G group?"
"Christina, you are the hostess of the IP&G Group..."
Christina immediately showed a very guilty expression and said hurriedly, "It's my fault. I am the one
who made you lose your job in France!"
"It was all due to that mushroom I ate. Seeing me like that, my husband took actions in a fit of pique...
I'm sorry, May."
Christina was so apologetic that she was about to make a deep bow to May.
"No need, please don't do this." May dared not to accept it.
"It was also our restaurant's fault, and as the manager of the restaurant, I was also at fault. I should
have noticed that something was wrong with the ingredients. I'm sorry for causing you to suffer..."
"I'm just surprised. My boss said that we had offended someone. It turns out that it was you. What a
coincidence!" May smiled.
When Charles heard this, he took the opportunity to gloat at Christina. "It's you again."
"Look at what you've done to your friend. She lost her job. Do you now realize how wicked you are?"
Christina kicked him and glared at him, warning him to shut up.
Turning around, she put on her apologetic look again and promised May, "May, whenever you need my
help in the future, feel free to come to me. And I can find you a new job."
"No, thanks."
May could not accept such a generous offer and kept shaking her head.
"Actually, I was quite lonely living abroad myself so I quit my job and came back. Maybe it was the Will
of Heaven. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise, right?"
Charles observed secretly and felt that May had a good character, like Crystal.
If he May, who he brought back was an injurious person, he would probably be skinned by Patrick.
When Nanny Faang heard that Christina had brought back a friend, she immediately called a few
maids to welcome Christina's friend warmly.
"Miss Fain, your clothes are wet. What about getting changed first?"
"You don't look well. Do you have a cold or a fever? Sit down and take a rest. I'll inform the doctor at
home to come over and give you a checkup later."
"Are you hungry? I've made porridge. You can have some before taking a bath. Otherwise, you might
faint from hunger."
May was so moved. She felt that even her parents had never treated her so well. She did not expect
the seemingly unattainable Hopkins family to be so warm and kind to her.
May wondered whether she was dreaming.
