Chapter 15
Patrick’s eyes were cold and indifferent as if he were looking at an irrelevant person. Then he put
down the newspaper and ignored her.
Christina had no choice but to sit reluctantly on his left.
The servants quickly put breakfast on the table and prepared various food, including scallop porridge,
paste, milk and so on.
Patrick and Mr. Hopkins did not speak during the meal. They ate gracefully and quietly.
“Ma’am, you are pregnant now. The nutritionist has prepared a nutritious meal for you…” The maid
brought her a bowl of porridge.
Christina didn’t dare to be picky. She took a sip. It was bland and bitter and tasted terrible.
Just as Mr. Hopkins’s sharp eyes glanced at her, Christina immediately lowered her head nervously
and obediently drank the bowl of medicinal porridge.
Mr. Hopkins seemed to be satisfied with her obedient attitude. He had half a bowl of scallop porridge
and put down the spoon.
The butler hurriedly handed him a cup of warm water. Mr. Hopkins took a sip and gently wiped his lips
with a napkin before he said in a deep voice, “Take care of yourself since you’re pregnant.”
Christina felt that the old man was ordering her, and she replied, “Yes, I see.”
“I said she’s pregnant. There are many things you should pay attention to!” Mr. Hopkins repeated,
raising his voice in displeasure.
Then Christina suddenly realized that the old man was talking to Patrick
Patrick’s expression was indifferent. He ate half of his paste, put down his fork, raised his eyebrows
and looked at his grandfather, then asked, “What should I pay attention to?”
Mr. Hopkins’s face darkened.
“In the early stages of pregnancy, there are some things you can’t do! Control yourself!” The old
man reminded Patrick angrily.
When Patrick heard this, he looked at Christina with a meaningful look.
Christina blushed.
Mr. Hopkins got up from his chair. With a crutch in his right hand, he glanced at Christina and suddenly
said, “Call me grandpa in the future!”
Christina looked a little surprised.
After breakfast, Patrick went to the company, and Mr. Hopkins went back to his room to rest.
“Ma’am, in the afternoon, the wedding shop will send over some designs. You can choose the style you
like and choose the wedding
ring style…”
Christina was a little busy. She sat on the sofa in the living room, and the housekeeper told her a lot
about the marriage.
When Christina heard this, her expression was very complicated. “Butler, let Mr. Hopkins decide. I-I am
ok with everything…”
This marriage was very absurd in others’ eyes, and last night, Patrick also said that they only got a
contractual marriage, so there was no need to be so serious.
“Mr. Hopkins said that if you have your
favorite wedding dresses and jewelry, you can tell you. If there are no special requirements, then we
will find a designer to customize them for you…” The butler spoke to her in a friendly and respectful
tone.
Christina was flattered to hear that. “I’m okay with that.” Actually, she didn’t expect this marriage at RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
all.
The butler heard her say this and did not ask her anymore. Seeing that she was a little tired, he
chuckled. “Didn’t you get used to sleeping in Hopkins Family?”
Christina looked embarrassed, “It’s fine.”
“Send Young Madam back to her bedroom to have a rest.” The butler turned to give an order to a maid.
After some thought, he added, “Ma’am, you are pregnant with the child of the Hopkins Family. Mr.
Hopkins will not treat you badly. You can relax.”
Christina nodded to the butler. “Thank you.”
She was really grateful to him. In her life, few people have treated her well. The masters of the Hopkins
Family were difficult to deal with, but the servants here were very
kind.
Christina was really sleepy and she didn’t sleep much last night. She went back to her bedroom with the maid.
The butler looked at her back and his eyes became meaningful.
“What the hell is going on? Are they really going to have a wedding? So embarrassing!”
Not long after Christina left, Laurie rushed to Hopkins Family in a huff.
Seeing the butlers and maids in Hopkins
Family busy with Patrick and Christina’s marriage, she became even angrier.
“Everyone in the circle knows that Christina used to be Hampton Family’s daughter-in-law, but now
suddenly…” Laurie’s chest heaved with anger.
“This wedding will only bring shame to Hopkins Family and the Hampton Family. No, this can’t be…
Besides, just let Christina give birth to the baby. There’s no need to get marriage licenses.”
The butler looked at her and said slowly, “The child of the Hopkins Family of course won’t be an
illegitimate child. Besides, most
importantly, Patrick agreed to marry her…”
Laurie’s face was dark. She never thought that Patrick would agree to get marriage licenses with
Christina.
Seeing the anger on her face, the butler added in a low voice, “Miss, you know the old man’s
temperament very well…”
Laurie did not stay in Hopkins Family for a long time. She knew that she could not disobey the old
man’s idea, so she had to start from other aspects.
“Contact the Dickens Family in C City…”
Laurie grabbed her phone and called her son, Cory.
Cory heard her voice and asked impatiently, “Mom, you are in the Hopkins Family? What did grandpa
say? Cousin and Christina…”
Laurie was immediately furious. “Your grandfather was biased towards your cousin. As soon as Patrick returned home, he became the president of the company, and he’s always against me in the
company. Patrick had never been interested in marriage, but now he agreed to get marriage
certificates with Christina. I won’t permit that…”
