In fact, Christina was also a little curious.She could not help but raise her eyebrows and turned to
Senior Mr.Hopkins.
Coincidentally, Senior Mr.Hopkins was also looking at her.
He said two words in a hoarse voice, "The Dickens family.'
Christina's expression changed and she said quickly, "Why did you invite them..."
She complained.
After all, she was a member of the Dickens family.She didn't dare to say anything about the basic
etiquette.
So she wouldn't deny Senior Mr.Hopkins's arrangement.
"Your aunt will be here today.’' Patrick reminded her in a low voice.
It was obvious that he had already known the Dickens family was invited.
"My aunt."
Christina changed from dissatisfaction to surprise.
"Is my aunt really here today? Didn't you say you couldn't get in touch with her before? How is she
now? Will she come with other people of the Dickens family..."
Christina grabbed Patrick's arm excitedly and asked.
Looking at her happy expression, Patrick felt a little jealous although he knew that the woman named
Betty Eisenhower was very important to her.
"Your aunt has been living in your previous apartment since she was discharged from the
hospital.She's recovered and looking good."
Chandler knew Betty well.
Seeing that Christina was so excited, he smiled and told her some news.
Christina had kept calling Betty, but the treatment center only said that Betty's operation was successful
and that she was discharged from the hospital.
Losing Betty's news, Christina was very worried about her and wanted to go out to look for her, but was
stopped by Patrick who only said that he would send someone to investigate for her.
Christina punched Patrick in the chest and said angrily, "Since my aunt was in the apartment, why
didn't you tell me? Why did you say that you couldn't get in touch with her?"
Patrick didn't feel pain, and kept calm, "She won't die anyway.'
This man was really shameless.
Christina warned him with a dark face, "When my aunt comes over, don't be so stiff.Why do you show
such a gloomy face as if someone owes you money? Don't scare my aunt."
She didn't care what those people in the Dickens family would do.
Christina only took Betty as her family, because it was Betty that raised her up.
"Christina's aunt is known for her elegance and talents."
Senior Mr.Hopkins had heard of Betty many years ago.
"Sure."
Christina was a little proud.
"Unfortunately, Christina, you didn't learn from your aunt..." Charles chuckled.
Christina wanted to grab an apple and hit him.
Suddenly, some voices came from outside the main house, "It seems that they are here."
Senior Mr.Hopkins said.
Christina was stunned for a moment, then immediately got up and ran out excitedly.
"Donald, how could you allow her to marry Patrick!"
Outside the main house, there was a noise.
It was Betty that was scolding violently.
She stopped being gentle, grabbed the collar of the middle-aged man in front of her with both hands,
"Donald Dickens, you, how can you..."
"Auntie." Christina was the first to rush out.
She stood at the magnificent gate of the Hopkins family's main residence, feeling astonished.
Betty's face was purple.
She pushed Donald away and turned to walk closer to Christina.
Christina looked at her blankly.
Betty was really much better after the operation.
She looked very healthy, but her face was fake.
It was not because she was sick, but because she was depressed and angry.
"Slap!"
Betty raised her hand and slapped Christina hard, making her left cheek red and swollen.
Christina's mind was blank.
"How dare you to be pregnant with Patrick Hopkins's babies!"
Christina's cheeks were red and swollen after being slapped.
She was dumbstruck and stood there motionlessly.
It was noon and the sun was shining brightly above.
Christina looked at the woman who stood in front of her clearly.
Betty, her aunt, who looked so angry, should slap her.
This was the first time Betty really hit her.
"What happened?"
Mrs.Dickens shouted at them in a hurry, and Donald, who was standing aside, seemed also to be
frightened by Betty's sudden behavior.
He came back to his senses after hearing Mrs.Dickens shouting and looked at Betty and Christina
worriedly.
He wanted to say something but hesitated.
Mrs.Dickens was invited to the Hopkins family today, so she wore an expensive dress and looked
noble.
Though she was old, she was still very strong.
She pulled Christina to her in anger and scolded Betty.
"Betty, if you don't want to come over, no one will force you.You came here to act wildly and even
slapped my granddaughter.Do you know your identity? There's no one in the Eisenhower family and
you are free to do anything you want?"
"Shut up.I just want to teach her a lesson."
Betty was no longer as calm and tolerant as she used to be.
She gritted her teeth and put on a gloomy expression, accusing Mrs.Dickens fiercely.
"Well, look at her.She finally showed her true color..."
