Chapter 224
Charles Shepherd strode closer, treating Eastern Garden as his own home.
He sat directly across the table and stared at her with wide eyes as if he was scanning her up and down to see if she was disabled.
He was disappointed that she was not injured or disabled.
"Just stay in the Hopkins family and wait for delivery.There are so many annoying relatives."
Charles didn't think he was that magnanimous.
He insisted on blaming her for her mistakes, Probably because Christina was guilty, she didn't refute him.
"Please prepare a breakfast for me.Anything is fine."
Chandler Stephenson also came over and spoke to Nanny Faang gently.
He turned to look at Christina.
He knew that Charles was holding a grudge against being beaten up by Patrick.
He chuckled and nodded at Christina in a friendly manner.
As for the matter that she left with Derek, they, including the servants in the Hopkins family, did not mention it very tacitly.
They did not mention anything about Derek.
Even if they mentioned it, it was useless.
"I want breakfast too."
Charles raised his head and shouted at the kitchen.
Only then did he remember that he had rushed to the Hopkins family on an empty stomach. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
"What a glutton!" Christina said these words.
"Who are you scolding?" Charles was beaten up because of her.
The more he thought about it, the more worthless he felt.
It wasn't known if it was usually too quiet in the Hopkins family.
If the two noisy people at the dinner table were in the Main Residence, they would definitely have been driven out.
Nanny Faang brought out two breakfasts and smiled.
It was more lively.
Chandler ignored them and ate elegantly.
The reason why he and Charles came to the Hopkins family so early was that two hours ago, Patrick called them and said that there was something important.
They wondered what happened to Patrick and why he was so anxious.
"I'm their adopted father!"
"If you are their adopted father, I am their mother!"
For some reason, they quarreled again.
Christina looked very serious, "Grandpa is still waiting to change their names, but I have the final say in their nicknames, which should be Big and Small."
Charles almost spat out the porridge and mocked her, "Big and Small? Hahaha...What kind of stupid names are those?"
"Let me name them.How about Bread and Chocolate, which are popular now.They sound cute."
"Who wants these? The elder brother is called Big and the younger brother is called Small.I think these two names are also very cute."
Christina was very determined.
Charles immediately remembered the woman's skills to change names.
Her WhatsApp ID was Invincible Tina, and Patrick was deeply implicated and changed his ID into Cold Pag...
This time, she would name the whole family.
"What do you think of Big and Small?"
Christina was not an autocratic person either.She asked the children's father's opinion democratically.
"Patrick, they are twins, so their names should be related.They sound nice and easy to remember.Let's not make it so complicated..." She spoke to him in a soft voice.
But the man sitting next to him reacted strangely.
Patrick still lowered his head half as if he had not heard her at all.
His expression was cold, and he had no reaction.
It was impossible that he didn’t hear her.
She and Charles were arguing so loudly...
Christina frowned, turned around, and looked at him intently, "Patrick."
She called him again, nervous but suspicious at the same time.
Chandler, who had been eating quietly, put half a glass of water back on the table hard.
The slightly cold crystal cup touched the back of Patrick's hand.
Patrick, who was sitting opposite Chandler, suddenly looked up as if he had suddenly woken up.
At that moment, his eyes were full of vigilance.
Christina could not ignore Patrick's strange behavior.
She was a little shocked, "You just..."
Chandler suddenly stood up, then turned to Christina and joked, "Your children must be very strong..."
Christina fell silent and watched closely as Chandler and Patrick walked side by side towards the living room.She knew that Chandler was deliberately not letting her ask.And now she was even more suspicious.She wanted to ask, "Patrick, did you hear me just now?"
In the living room of Eastern Garden, a few maids were doing their work carefully.
They didn't know why Mr.Shepherd and Mr.Stephenson came here so early for breakfast, but they two were guests, so the maids quickly boiled water and prepared tea after dinner, and brought a few plates of fruit to serve them.
Chandler and the others were obviously not in the mood to have tea and refreshments.
They stood in front of the large glass window on the east side of the living room.
"Patrick, your illness..."
"Someone is targeting me and is going to do something to Christina.’ He didn't answer the question.
"Don't care about Christina now.You should listen to grandpa now and go to Seattle immediately..."
Chandler looked at Patrick's weak and pale face and immediately became nervous.
Patrick did not speak immediately.Instead, he looked out the window with a deep gaze, and Derek's indifferent voice had been lingering in his ear.
"You can't protect her."
