"The traffic police asked me to cooperate with them to collect evidence at noon.If all goes well, I'll go
back to A City."
Christina wanted to escape from C City, the ominous place for her.Infact, she knew very well that she
belonged to nowhere.
Probably because she looked aggressive, and she was always very energetic to deal with
everything.But now Charles noticed that there was a sense of loss on her beautiful side face.
Suddenly, he wanted to say something to her.
"Why are you looking for me?"
At this moment, Christina's phone suddenly rang.She glanced at the phone and her voice immediately
became cold when she answered it.
Charles looked at her phone curiously and raised his eyebrows, thinking who it could be.
Although Christina was not very close to people, there were only a few people she hated.She held the
phone with an impatient expression as if she was about to hang up.
Connie's voice on the other end of the phone was a little anxious and angry, and she shouted
commandingly, "Let Carrie go immediately"
"Why?" Christina asked coldly, "Are you going to make connections with me now? You two sisters
really make me feel sick."
Connie's voice was shrill and angry.
"Christina, Carrie is more seriously injured.She's still in the ICU.Crystal has been discharged..."
"What does it matter to me how badly your sister is injured? It's all Carrie's fault.She was the one who
hit us with her car and caused the accident" Christina hated the Yankey sisters very much.
They were like evils, pestering her all the time and implicating her friends, which made her even more
angry and hateful.
"If Crystal and I had been killed by her car at the time, we would have deserved to die, wouldn't we?
Connie, you really take yourself too seriously.If it weren't for the Dickens family as your backing, you'd
have nothing.Why should I listen to you?"
Christina almost gritted her teeth when she said so.
"How dare Connie mention favour and family to her?" Christina thought.
She hated the Yankey sisters so much because they were ungrateful and ruined her family.
Hearing this, Charles understood.His tone also became cold and he deliberately raised his voice, "Just
lock that Carrie in for ten or eight years, so as not to harm the world"
Connie on the other end of the phone could clearly hear Charles's words, and became even angrier,
gritting her teeth and trying to curse back.
But she was not qualified.
Christina was right.
They were nothing.They were originally left behind children abandoned by their parents in the
mountains.They studied hard and finally came to the big city.
In order to have a good life, they were dependent on the Dickens family.
She was not qualified enough to compare with Christina.
The greater the gap between them, the more Connie felt that fate was unfair, and the more she hated
Miss Dickens, who had been wayward and indulgent since she was a child.
"Christina, I suggest you talk properly when you make another statement to the police.If Carrie a heavy
sentence because of your rich friends, I will make you regret it."
Christina found Connie extremely funny, "How dare you still threaten me at this time? Connie, you're
only three years older than me, how could you tell others that you're my stepmother? My father is old
enough to take you as his goddaughter.
You're so shameless.I really don't know what's the point of living is for people like you."
"Christina, I'm three years older than you, but the pain I've experienced and known is a thousand times
than you.I live to survive.I want to live a good life!"
As an actress, Connie was usually very good at pretending.But this time, she seemed to be provoked
and scolded out of control.
"Why did Carrie drive towards you for no reason?"
"Why is your friend Crystal injured?"
The more Connie spoke, the more excited she became.She sneered and said sarcastically, "Cecilia
deliberately provoked Carrie in order to retaliate against you.Carrie had been insane for the past
year.Cecilia wanted to use Carrie to kill you, but Crystal was unlucky to be involved.Christina, all these
accidents are because of you."
Christina's face turned pale for a moment.She held the phone tightly and did not know how to refute it.
Charles glanced at her and immediately snatched the phone from her hand.He ended the call without
hesitation.
Connie spoke so loudly just now that he could hear her.
"I'll go to the police station with you later." Charles also wanted to know more about the traffic accident.
Christina adjusted her mood and took the phone back.
She said calmly, "I won't compromise to Carrie so easily"
Even if Connie had said those words just now, she would not let Carrie go easily, because Crystal was
the one who was injured this time.
Charles said nothing else.It seemed that Connie's last words had some influence on her.
Having experienced the dark side of this world, Connie knew how to play with people's hearts.She
knew she have to hit Christina's weakness instead of coming into the direct conflict with her.
Christina was wayward and willful and appeared to be aggressive, but she was kind indeed.
It was around 12 o'clock in the afternoon.
Charles and Christina found a random Chinese restaurant nearby for lunch, but they had no appetite.
During lunch, Betty called to chat with Christina.She mentioned that Donald's health was no longer a
problem, but he needed to pay attention to health in the future.
Christina was as indifferent about the Dickens family as before and quickly hung up the phone.
"Christina, who are you closer to?" Charles saw her hang up the phone and suddenly remembered this
question.
Because Christina had no special preference as if nothing could keep her.
"My grandfather" She answered quickly.
"After my grandfather died, it should be my aunt." Christina was not hungry.
As she said, she held a fork and poked at a piece of pizza on the plate in boredom.
"My dad and grandma were nice to me when I was a kid.In fact, I wasn't very close to my mom.Later,
my dad cheated on my mon and I fell out with the Dickens family.My mother was slandered by my
father and imprisoned.Then she committed suicide in prison.This matter had a great impact on me.At
that time, I hated the Dickens family very much and even if I don't hate them now, there is an
estrangement from them in my heart.You don't understand, when there are regrets about kinship, even
when you see your family you feel very rusty and awkward"
Having family or not had no difference to Christina.
Her bright eyes were a little dim, and her voice grew lower,.Actually, I don't know how to describe my
feeling to my aunt, but I'm not as honest as I used to be in the past few years.
Crystal is my best friend, and I'm afraid my things will drag her down.So there are a lot of things that I
don’t want to tell anyone even if I know.
Christina could not remember when she had become more and more distrustful of others.She didn't
trust anyone and had no sense of belonging.
"What about Patrick?" Charles suddenly asked.
She said so much but didn't mention Patrick.
Christina didn't seem to have thought about Patrick and she froze for a moment.
"Without the child, there is no relationship between me and him." She replied quickly and directly.
Charles looked at her serious eyes and suddenly didn’t know how to answer.
