Chapter 27
"You allow a pregnant woman to eat crabs, do you have any common sense?
This sentence sounded familiar. Christina buried her head in the quilt guiltily. Last night. Patrick was still blaming her for not having any common sense, but now...
Now it was Patrick who was scolded.
Christina suddenly had a fever at four
in the morning and called a doctor.
Since Mr. Hopkins had always been an
early riser, it was hard to hide what happened from him. The old man came over angrily with his crutch and scolded.
“Grandpa, it's actually me.” It was me who wanted to eat crabs.
Christina popped out of her head and was about to admit her fault, but Mr. Hopkins was in a bad mood and looked at her with a darkened face. Therefore, Christina immediately became timid and stopped speaking
Patrick was yelled at by his grandfather and did not refute, but he didn't look good. He glanced at Christina meaningfully.
“From now on, You two will report to the parenting center every Sunday and
learn how to be parents. Hmph.” Mr. Hopkins's face was especially grim. He Ordered seriously. Christina had to go to class every
Sunday, so she didn't care. She had nothing to do anyway, but Patrick was busy with work.
Seeing his grandfather go downstairs, Christina turned to look at Patrick. As
expected, he was not very happy.
“Christina.” He looked into her guilty eyes, muttered her name, and warned angrily, “You better behave yourself!”
She did not dare to refute, because he had taken the blame for her.
Patrick left with a darkened face,
leaving Christina in bed. Nanny Faang brought her breakfast, not forgetting to remind her.
The young master has said that you must return to your bedroom before
10:00 pm this evening and call him in advance before going out.” Halfway through. Nanny Faang suddenly laughed again
“By the way. Old Master let me ask you about Patrick's cooking skills.”
Christina was a little surprised.
Hadn't Old Master try anything cooked by Patrick?
In fact, Mr. Hopkins said before, “Can what cooked by that rascal be eat? It must taste awful!” Yes, he had never
eaten it.
Mr. Hopkins was rather displeased. He glared at the doctor with a stem and cold gaze. “What else does he hide from me?
The doctor felt innocent, so he just said. “It is not suitable for Young Madam to get too tired now.” “I actually knew about the video of Christina jumping off a river in C City!”
Mr. Hopkins's face became even more grim and he gritted his teeth. “He made her supper in the middle of the night!” Why didn't he cook me a bowl of noodles?
Mr. Hopkins was upset for several days because he didn't eat a bowl of noodles cooked by his grandson Even Laurie. who came to pay a New Year call, felt the anger of the old man. Only after inquiring about it did she know that
Christina almost had a miscarriage.
He tumed around and went back to the study with his briefcase.
"Patrick, we caught some people, who might have something to do with the kidnapping in C City” Charles was reporting something when suddenly his voice became sarcastic. “Carrie sent someone to do it.”
When Patrick heard this, he was not
too surprised. He just looked out the
window at the dark sky, seeming to think about something.
“Patrick, how are you going to deal with it?” Charles asked after Patrick's silence.
"Don't interfere. I have plans,” he didn't answer directly.
Just as he was about to hang up the phone, he thought of another woman and said, “Let me be the leading heroine of your company's first TV series this year...”
Then the phone was hung up. Charles
heard his last words and looked at the
entertainment headlines on TV with a stiff expression.
“Cecilia returns to the entertainment industry.”
"Are you so busy these days because of Cecilia? Charles murmured. He couldn't handle Patrick's personal affairs, but...
Since Cecilia was back, Patrick didn't even bother about Christina's last
kidnapping
“It's not easy for Christina.” Charles sympathized with her.
Christina?!
Patrick came out of the study pushed open the bedroom door, and watched the TV on. The woman curledupon the sofa and fell asleep.
Well, he rushed back to check if she
went back to her bedroom at ten
o'clock to rest. However, it turned out that she fell asleep on the sofa,
Patrick approached her with a darkened face. He really wanted to wake her up and teach heralesson. Although he didn't look too good, he
bent down and hugged the woman on the sofa. “You're really troublesome...”
Perhaps Patrick was being too imposing Christina felt something staring at her. She was so uneasy that she opened her eyes. “Patrick, what do you want to do?”
“What do you think I want to do!”
Patrick was so angry that he threw the
woman onto the bed.
She that he was in a bad mood. He turned around and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Christina was so frightened by him that she wasn't sleepy any logner.
Looking thoughtfully at the TV in the small living room on the left, a piece of
entertainment news was just broadcast about that Miss Jones.
"Patrick, there's one thing I want to
As soon as he came out of the bathroom, Christina mustered up the
courage to negotiate with him
“What do you want to say?”
Unfortunately, as soon as Patrick spoke, Christina's heart trembled. The man was really fierce. “Well, aren't you in a bad mood?”
Patrick wiped his wet hair casually with a towel in his right hand and glanced at the woman on the bed who wanted to speak but stopped, signaling
her to continue
“Patrick, I know that anyone would be angry at something like this.”
She pointed to the TV on the left, looking sympathetically.
“Those people asserted that Miss Jones dated a rich man after seeing a randomly taken photo. They were talking nonsense. Don't be too angry. Miss Jones loves you so much. She'll never cheat on you."
Patrick listened to her inexplicable words, turned around, grabbed the remote control, and dialed back to the news. It was indeed a scandal about Cecilia
“Christina, how did you know that the
Derson wasn't me?”
He looked at a blurry photo on the high-definition screen. The news was actually a publicity stunt did by the industry's managers, but he suddenly became interested.
"Of course, you're so handsome. I can tell from the back of that common man that it's not you.” Patrick had taken the blame for herself a few days ago, so she felt a little guilty about him. Now she was laughing heartily.
Seeing her silly smile, Patrick raised his eyebrows and asked in a complicated voice. “Do you know me well?"
Christina continued to flatter him.
“Patrick you are so handsome that no
one else can simulate your temperament. You are absolutely eye catching and impressive. You can attract the attention of a crowd of
women the moment you appear.”
"Really?
Hearing this, Patrick was a little angry. “Christina, do you find me impressive? Then why did you forget me?
She didn't know why he suddenly got angry. This man was really hard to get along with
However, Christina had something serious to talk to him tonight. She had been looking at him for a long time, so she nerved herself!
The moment she opened her mouth, she said, “Patrick, I like you very much!” She roared out bravely.
The man who was standing by the bed and wiping his hair with a towel in his right hand suddenly trembled and the towel fell to the floor.
Patrick was mixed with many emotions. He glared at the woman on the bed. “What did you say?” His voice was suddenly very low.
She sensed that he was acting strangely. Did she just piss him off when she said she liked him?! “Patrick, don't get me wrong.” she quickly explained. “I mean, a man like
you is too good. There are so many women who love you. I know I'm not
good enough for you...” She lowered her voice deliberately.
Patrick's expression grew colder and colder
“You can rest assured that I will never
take over the position of Mrs. Hopkins for long. After I give birth to the child, I will make it clear to grandpa that I will be happy to see you and Miss Jones together. I hope that you will be together openly as soon as possible.” Christina felt that she spoke very fluently. She even expressed her heartfelt blessing
But why did the man look cold and aggressive?
“Christina, you dislike me!”
He clearly saw the excitement and joy in the woman's eyes. She seemed to be very happy that he was with Cecilia.
“How dare 17” Christina refused to
admit it
“You dare not?!"
Patrick approached the bed aggressively and pressed her down angrily.
He stared at her face fiercely. “Christina, you dare to do anything. You jumped down from the tree and pressed me down. You did something wrong but you shifted the blame on
me.” He knew that the woman was too
bold
Christina looked at his face and felt
guilty when she heard his accusations. She admitted that she had bullied some people, but... “Don’t hold me down. Grandpa said that in the first three months...” The two bodies were so close together that her cheeks reddened and she struggled to push him away.
She even had learned to deal with him using grandpa
“Then three months later, we'll do it!” Patrick let go of her and glared at her with a heavy gaze. "Who wants to do that with you.. Christina was embarrassed.
“If you move again, we'll try something
else!”
She was very quiet on the bed. Her body tensed up and she did not dare to move. And the man on her left seemed to be very satisfied with her as a pillow. He buried his head in her neck. It seemed that they had been husband and wife for a long time.
Before turning off the lights, Patrick shamelessly praised, “Christina, your body is very soft. Mmm, it smells good.
Damn it! Christina cursed in her heart.
Why was this tyrant Patrick not interested in my proposal? She didn't
understand why every time she saw Cecilia's face, she felt uncomfortable.
Christina didn't want to be anyone's
