"You've been reading her WhatsApp Moments!" The woman rushed forward angrily and snatched the phone from the man sitting on the sofa.
"Carrie, give my phone back!" Cory immediately stood up and glared at her.
"Christina is your cousin's wife, and she’s pregnant with Patrick's child.You should face the reality.’’ Carrie yelled at him angrily.
"It's none of your business!"
Cory stepped forward and snatched back his phone.
He glared at the woman in front of him with a grim face.
"Get out of here now, Carrie.You don't have the right to stay in the Hampton Family!"
Cory was resentful of what she had done.
Carrie felt guilty, but she raised her voice, "Indeed, I've done something wrong in the past, but we've already gotten the marriage certificates.You're my husband, and shouldn't you take care of me?..."
"Stop making me sick.Get out of here now!"
She had conspired with Patrick to plot him, and he was furious.
Carrie had been pestering him all these days.
She thought Cory would forgive herself in a while, but he was still cold and stern after half a month.
"Cory, are you really...really going to have a fight with me? I have Dickens Family as my backup!"
She was so angry and she threatened him.Cory sneered, "Dickens Family?"
"How dare you mention the Dickens Family? You're shameless.What's your relationship with Donald? Even Christina never mentions him.Donald is just your brother-in- law” He hated everything about her.
"My sister said that if you dare to divorce me, the Dickens Family would not let you go!" Carrie was infuriated by his words.
Indeed, their wedding was canceled, but the two of them had already received the marriage certificates, which meant that they were legally married.
Carrie knew that no man would like a divorced woman, so she tried her best to pester him.
She had to be the Young Madam of the Hampton Family.
"Oh, you think you can rely on the Dickens Family?"
Cory scoffed, "Carrie, go back and ask your sister if your family group is about to change its name...
The Hopkins Group is your backup, but they know very well that the Dickens Family had displeased Patrick, and Donald can't even protect himself.
How dare you to threaten me with the Dickens Family?"
Cory's face was also very sullen.
He almost squeezed the name ‘Patrick’ out of his gnashing teeth.
Crystal had called Christina many times during these days.
So her phone kept ringing.
After dinner, she stayed in her bedroom and was reading some posts about pregnancy ona forum.
Her phone was ringing again.
She thought it was Crystal who was calling her, but it was Mrs.Dickens.
"Christina, how are you doing? Is Patrick good to you?" Christina had a bad feeling when she heard that this snobbish old lady suddenly cared about her.
"We're just like other couples.We're good"
"That's good, you should be good to each other like other couples.When you sleep at night, you should chat more to improve your relationship..." Christina felt that something was wrong.
She asked directly, "What happened?"
Mrs.Dickens didn't waste time on preliminaries.
She hurriedly said in a commanding tone.
"Christina, tell Patrick that Dickens Family really had nothing to do with the shoddy steel plates used for the bridge project last month.It was all your George's fault.He was too greedy.Please explain to Patrick.Dickens Family should be implicated..." Christina was startled.
She thought of the bloody scene in the basement.
Patrick had specially taken her there.
"I can do nothing about his business." She replied in a complicated tone.
"What are you talking about!"
Mrs.Dickens scolded her with anger, "If something happens to your father, you will have a hard time.Dickens Family relies on Hopkins Group for almost everything, and you must help the Dickens Family.”
After that, the phone was directly hung up.
They just regarded her as a tool.
She really wanted to cut off their relationship! She was annoyed.
However, she put her phone back on the table and sat quietly on the sofa, thinking about it.
