Chapter 15

Patrick's eyes were cold and indifferent as if he were looking at an irrelevant person. Then he putdown 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 scallopporridge, 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 maidbrought 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 nervouslyand obediently drank the bowl of medicinal porridge.

Mr. Hopkins seemed to be satisfied with her obedient attitude. He had half a bowl of scallopporridge and put down the spoon.

The butler hurriedly handed him a cup of warm water. Mr. Hopkins took a sip and gently wiped hislips 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 eyebrowsand 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 oldman 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 andsuddenly 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 styleyou 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 alot about the marriage.

When Christina heard this, her expression was very complicated. “Butler, let Mr. Hopkins decide. I-1am ok with everything...”

This marriage was very absurd in others’ eyes, and last night, Patrick also said that they only got acontractual 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, thenwe will replace a designer to customize them for you...” The butler spoke to her in a friendly andrespectful tone.

Christina was flattered to hear that. “I'm okay with that.” Actually, she didn't expect this marriageat all.

The butler heard her say this and did not ask her anymore. Seeing that she was a little tired, hechuckled. “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 amaid.

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 theHopkins 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 bedroomwith 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 nowsuddenly...” 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 anillegitimate 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 withChristina.

Seeing the anger on her face, the butler added in a low voice, “Miss, you know the old man’stemperament very well...”

Laurie did not stay in Hopkins Family for a long time. She knew that she could not disobey the oldman’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 didgrandpa say? Cousin and Christina...”

Laurie was immediately furious. “Your grandfather was biased towards your cousin. As soon asPatrick returned home, he became the president of the company, and he’s always against me inthe company. Patrick had never been interested in marriage, but now he agreed to get marriagecertificates with Christina. I won't permit that...”
