"How's your injury?" Christina looked at him in his hospital gown and managed to say in a choking voice.She did not approach and stood two meters behind the bed.
Patrick sat on the big bed.
On the right side of the bed, there were a few bottles of injection hanging from an iron frame.
There were still two bottles of injection.His eyes were deep and complicated.He stared at her standing two meters away.
"It's okay." He replied in a low voice.
"Oh"
Perhaps because he was too focused on her, Christina could not look straight into his face.She turned around and glanced around the room.
Silence fell again.
Christina fixed her eyes on the golden pocket watch on the nightstand.Her face was very calm and she did not say anything, her brain teeming and seething with feelings.She asked Charles to return the pocket watch to him.
It seemed that it had become a habit for him to take this pocket watch with him, Her mind started drifted and she cast down her eyes to think about a lot of things until Patrick suddenly said, "Come home with me."
She was stunned and looked up at his handsome face.
Patrick's deep eyes were sharp, burning as if he was looking into her eyes.He repeated in a low voice, "Christina, come with me to the Hopkins family"
Go back to Hopkins family.
Christina did not expect him to spring it on her like that.She was stunned and did not know how to answer him, but at least she did not resist the idea in her heart.
The phone on the bedside table rang at the right time.
The sudden ringing of the phone made the atmosphere a little more natural for them to be alone.
Christina turned her head away from him and strode towards the bedside table.
Patrick was still on the drip in his right hand.
And Christina didn’t feel embarrassed to help him pick up the phone and walked up to hand it to him.
She glanced at it quickly, it showed the word "Grandfather"
Patrick glanced at her first, who was standing in front of him less than half a meter away.He reached out to get the phone.His slender cold fingers touched her hand.
The phone kept ringing, and it sounded a little annoying.
Patrick quickly clicked the answer button.
"What's going on?" said the hoarse and angry voice on the other end of the phone.
"You sent so many people to take the route...and you hurt yourself finally for something worthless!!"
Senior Mr.Hopkins scolded.
Even if Patrick didn't turn on the loudspeaker, Christina stood beside him and heard it clearly.
Grandpa would never be polite to his grandson.
He was obviously concerned about him, but he scolded him so hard.
Grandpa was furious and shouted at his phone, "What's going on with you and Christina? You both went abroad.You don't look after the twins at home, do you?"
Probably because he felt that there was no response from Patrick, Senior Mr.Hopkins scolded him and shouted angrily...
"Can you hear me? Get back immediately!" Patrick looked at the phone and didn't say anything.
Christina answered naturally, "I see."
He was stunned in the other end of the phone.Senior Mr.Hopkins did not expect Christina to reply.
"We'll fly back today." Patrick replied unhurriedly and hung up the phone.
"Would it be too urgent to fly back today?"
When Charles and the others heard the news that they were going back to China, they were all a little surprised and looked regretful.
"I also plan to stay in Switzerland for another day or two after the wind and snow stop.There are several tourist areas near this town, and the hot springs are also famous."
Charles secretly elbowed Christina next to him and lowered his voice.
"Tell Patrick that we'll play for another two days before we go back" Christina ignored him.
In fact, she also felt a little rushed, and although Patrick's back was slightly injured, it would be better to rest for another day before leaving.
But since Patrick said so, maybe he had something urgent to deal with back home.
After all, he was a busy man.
"Go to the lobby and eat something.We'll leave in an hour."
She walked towards her room.
Charles looked at her back with resentment.
"Hey, Christina, it's rare for us to come out together.Just stay with Patrick for another two days on your honeymoon"
Mr.Shepherd's philosophy of life was to eat, sleep, and have fun.
Especially after such a tragic experience in the snow mountain, he had to treat himself well.
But when Christina heard the word "Honeymoon travel," she walked faster.
These sweet and good times had nothing to do with her marriage.
Patrick's men were very efficient.
