Putting down a book on postnatal care in her hand and wanting to walk out of the study, Christina was surprised to replace a figure standing by the door. When did he come back? She didn't expect to see Patrick.

Christina looked a little embarrassed.

"I, I just passed by..."

She explained automatically.

After all, Patrick didn't like others to enter his study at will.

"Your appointment with the ob-gyn is at 3 o'clock this afternoon."

Patrick at the door mentioned another thing in a flat tone.

Christina pursed her lips, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Okay" She answered casually.

Christina glanced at the clock on the wall.

It was already 2 o'clock.

She calculated the time and distance, and they should get going.

If he didn't bring it up, she almost forgot about the doctor's appointment.

Doctors and nutritionists went to Patrick's place to examine her, but she still had to go to the hospital from time to time.

Nanny Faang probably had arranged for a maid to accompany her to the hospital.

"You..." When Patrick saw her coming out, he closed the door.

"Aren't you going into the study?"

Why did he close the door? Christina stopped and looked at Patrick walking beside her.

"Are you going to the hospital too?" She asked with uncertainty.

"Yes."

He didn't say much but slowed down and walked side by side with her.

They went down the stairs.

There was only the sound of their footsteps, and neither of them spoke.

They saw Paul waiting on the steps by the time they walked out of the Eastern Garden.

"Young Master Hopkins, your car is ready."

"There's one more thing. Senior Mr. Hopkins went to the company for a meeting early in the morning and ordered the board of directors to arrange for five vice presidents to take over your businesses for now.Junior Mrs. Hopkins is about to give birth.Senior Mr.Hopkins hopes that you can be there for her for a year after childbirth."

"Be there for me for a year?" Christina looked incredulous to hear that.

"Junior Mrs.Hopkins, if Young Master Hopkins is not feeling well, please..."

"Get in the car."

Paul was interrupted before he could finish.

Patrick opened the door and urged Christina.

The car drove out of the mansion, but they still didn't talk much.

Christina wanted to ask where Patrick had been these days.

Why did his grandpa keep telling him to rest more? And she wanted to know more about Derek and the jade pendant.

There were a lot of questions in her heart.

Christina wanted to ask, but she still didn't.

The checkup went smoothly, and doctors had arranged everything for Christina.

But they were surprised that Patrick came as well, so it was more intense than usual in the doctor's office.

"The babies are good. All indicators are normal. Junior Mrs.Hopkins is pregnant with twins, so we're going to perform the Caesarean for her. We'll arrange for her to stay at the hospital in the middle of next month.If she is in good health, we can choose a day for the Caesarean."

A doctor told Patrick a few things by the book.

Christina had heard those words many times herself.

She was already mentally prepared for the painful process of giving birth, so she didn't feel anything.

"Is the spare blood ready?"

However, Patrick was concerned.

"She has a rare blood type. Prepare five times more blood for the operation..."

"Yes, of course."

Probably because Patrick was born with a strong aura, the doctors opposite him echoed and promised, "We have the best doctors for the operation. Please don't worry, Mr.Hopkins."

"We promise that there will never be any major bleeding or any special circumstances. Everything will be smooth, and we'll ensure the safety of your wife and children."

Christina didn't remember how many times these doctors had promised them.

In the end, Patrick held her, and she stood up to leave with him.

"Are you really going into the delivery room when I give birth?"

Christina had been nervous when facing Patrick.

But when she saw Patrick seriously discussing the children with the doctors, it seemed that she had forgotten everything that had happened before and started to act naturally. "Patrick, don't go into the delivery room. It's strange," She muttered.

"What's so strange?"

Patrick looked down at her face.

"Don't go anyway. It's awkward."

What could he do when she was giving birth? He was not a doctor! Christina's ears turned red when she thought about it.

"I don't think so."

Patrick was okay with it.

Christina glared at him. She would be so embarrassed!

"Do you want to walk around?"

Patrick looked at her angry face, thought for a while, and asked in a stilted manner. He was a man of action.

Since the hospital was over, he should send Christina straight back home.

But it suddenly occurred to Patrick that he had never gone shopping with her.

He also remembered that Charles said the happiest time for a woman was not when she received jewelry, but when someone was accompanying her. "There are a lot of luxury brands in the business street ahead."
