Christina got the opportunity to go to Japan for a live broadcast.Her colleagues, especially her seniors
in the live streaming, looked at her with hostility.
Christina knew that she, as a green hand, was not qualified or ready for such a big project.
But since Patrick and the company had reached an agreement to let her take the job, she did not
hesitate and prepared the files needed for the trip to Japan.
"The speech draft of product is merely a thousand words or so.It's not a big deal.I believe you can
recite it whole.The more important things are to adapt to the changing situation and behave easy
around the camera" Charles purposely made a video call to Christina to show his friendliness.
Besides giving Christina some suggestions, he praised Christina, "Christina, you are really apt at live
broadcasting.You never have stage fright the new hand would have." He paused.
"I think it's mainly because you're thick-skinned"
Hearing that, Christina thought, "I knew Charles is not this good!" She yelled at him, "Charles, didn't
your mom force you to a blind date yet? If you haven't gotten married this year, how would your mom
deal with you? I can't wait to know!"
Mrs.Shepherd would definitely deal with him.
Charles glared at Christina but soon became a deflated ball.He didn't want to discuss such a topic with
her.He was about to go crazy because of this marriage stuff.
Recently, his mother forced him to get married.He didn't want to, but he couldn't talk back to his mother.
"Christina, you should change your impulsive bad temper.You should be like my brothers and me, filial
and obedient.If my brothers and I were like you, it would drive my mom mad and probably get some
disease for that.I heard that you had fought with someone in your new company.If Senior Mr.Hopkins
knew it, you must have to confess your guilt in the ancestral temple of the Hopkins family"
"Bullshit.Senior Mr.Hopkins said I did a good job.The granddaughter-in- law of the Hopkins family is not
that easy to be bullied!" Christina had been getting along very well with Senior Mr.Hopkins recently.
She snorted, "Charles, you and your brothers are all over your thirties.But no one has a willingness to
get married.Senior Mr.Hopkins said that was really unfilial!"
Hearing that, Charles was terrified.
Damn! Senior Mr.Hopkins had been influenced by weird Christina in fact, Mrs.Shepherd liked Christina
very much.
The last time Patrick had taken her to the Shepherd family to give new year's blessing, Mrs.Shepherd
had found that, although Christina and her fourth son quarreled, they were in tune.
So she had thought that it would be good to have such a daughter- in-law.
But it was a pity that Christina had been married into the Hopkins family.
At that time, Charles had said that, with Christina, the Shepherd family would not be more lively but
restless.
It was true.
Even if Christina did not cause trouble, the trouble would come to her.
But, the next second after his words, Charles was dealt with by his mom.
It was very tragic.
This new "hatred" plus the old made Charles decide to give Christina a hard time.
Christina happened to work in Charles’ elder brother's company now.
Charles decided to take the opportunity to demoralize Christina.
He now showed a boss look.
"Christina, don't make trouble for my big brother.It's not easy for him to start a company.On this trip to
Japan, I plead you to stay easy, not make any trouble and be serious about your job.If you screw up
the live broadcast, not only you ruin the opportunity which should belong to your colleague, but also
you will be ashamed."
Christina knew that Charles was deliberately showing severity.
She was a little nervous and yelled at him anxiously, "Got it.Got it"
If she screwed up such simple work, that meant she sucked in work.
Christina had been thinking for the past few days that her life had been happy to have a good husband
and a pair of cute twins.
The only regret was that she had never done anything for herself.
"Lifelong misery and hardship await if you chose a wrong husband" The day before yesterday,
Christina had had tea and chatted with Senior Mr.Hopkins.
During that, Senior Mr.Hopkins talked to her, "In a woman's life, the most important thing is to have
bright eyes and a clear mind.And if she could find a good husband, her life is near to successful"
"Bright eyes and a clear mind?...But in the past, my mind seemed to be covered with mud," She looked
down and muttered.
Senior Mr.Hopkins’ hearing was sharp.
He heard what Christina had said and shouted, "What?!"
Covered by mud! What bullshit! Christina was in a quite serious look.
"The problem is, I didn't find my husband myself.It was Patrick that came to me-" Senior Mr.Hopkins
was surprised.He hadn't expected that! As an office worker, Christina didn't have much time to think
about these values stuff all day long.
She had to go to work now.
Christina didn't have any experience in live streaming on the Internet.
To make a rehearsal of the live streaming in Japan, she made live streaming with her phone as she
introduced the Hopkins family.
"These are my twin sons.They are ten months old now.Nanny Faang feeds them eight times a day, so
these two little guys are very chubby now..." Christina introduced her sons while Charles and others
were watching her live streaming.
There came a comment.
"Christina, you think of your son as two products? Try to introduce them to us." Christina walked into
the baby's room and gave them a close-up.
"Although these two chubby babies look very similar, it's easy to distinguish them.The one with black
eyes is the elder brother, and the one with blue eyes is the younger brother.In addition, the younger
brother loves to cry.And the younger brother eats a lot and so is heavier, and it feels weight to hold
him..." The younger baby blinked his big blue eyes and looked curiously at his mommy.
He waved the bottle in his small hand and shouted.
Christina turned her head to look at the younger baby who was very satisfied.He smiled, with his eyes
curved.
There came another comment from Charles.
"Christina, why does your son like to hold that bottle so much?" Christina recalled that Patrick had
snatched her younger baby’s bottle several times, leading the baby to cry his eyes out.
Christina felt pained to hear the baby's cry every time and thought the baby was very aggrieved.
Christina thought for a moment and explained to the camera with a serious expression, "My younger
son has collectormania.If there is something he loves at the first sight, he will take it firmly in his hand"
Charles was suddenly enlightened and sent a comment, "The child inherited it from his dad"
Patrick was also like this.
Patrick fell in love with Christina at first sight, married her, and firmly supported her.
They were indeed a father and a son.
Christina said definitively, "Charles, you have said that the baby inherited crying habit from me.But
that's not true.That the baby cries is all because of Patrick."
Because the twins had to be fed under Senior Mr.Hopkins’ strict arrangement, Christina dared not to
disturb her son anymore.She turned to pester someone she dared to disturb.
In front of the camera, Christina wore a standard smile and introduced Patrick seriously.
"Everyone, look at this man.He is my husband" There were a lot of confidential business documents in
Patrick's study.
Usually, there was no admittance except someone important.
But Christina, the Junior Mrs.Hopkins, was an exception.
Patrick was sitting at the table with a cold expression.
He was reviewing a new document.
With a powerful wave of the pen in his hand and "No Pass", a new proposal was rejected.
Patrick looked up at his wife who had a bright smile.He was out of mind for a while but still held a cold
expression.
The corners of his lips moved and he glanced at the phone.
He asked, "Is it fun?"
Then he reached out his right hand to put Christina on his lap.
Fun? Patrick thought that she was to work for fun.
Ever since Christina came back to the Hopkins family willingly, they had become more intimate.
Patrick would not only cook supper for Christina but also would have many actions to get more intimate
with Christina.
Christina felt awkward at first, but now she was used to it.
Sitting on Patrick's lap was comfortable for Christina.
She leaned against his chest overtly and checked the phone camera with both hands carefully.
"I don't think it's difficult to do a live broadcast.It should be fine with my trip to Japan" she muttered as
she looked down at her phone and focused on fiddling with the video parameters.
Patrick looked at her who was quiet and focused and praised in a low and hoarse voice, "Well done."
Charles, who was watching the live streaming, could not tolerate this couple who were showing
affection.
Charles sighed that his good pal had become a good husband now.
Now in Patrick's mind, his wife was right about everything.
If Charles dared to retort Christina, Patrick would make Charles suffer.
"Christina, you must always remember that you work in my brother's company.Don't trouble people on
your side.Don't make any trouble on the trip to Japan!" Charles left the last message and turned off the
live stream.
Christina looked beautiful but did not look like a capable woman.
Christina also could not get along with her colleagues.
Even Crystal was worried about her.
"Christina, I failed to apply to accompany you on your business trip to Japan this time.The three female
colleagues with you this time are very experienced.If you encounter any problems, ask for Rachel's
help.She is kind"
Crystal knew that Christina was flying to Japan tomorrow, so she called to give Christina some
suggestions.
Christina went back to her bedroom and was busy packing her luggage.
She just answered a "Got it" Crystal continued, "Don't be too nervous.You're on behalf of our
company.This project is a cooperation project between our company and IP&G Group.Even if the
people of our company can't help you, there must be someone on the IP&G Group side who would
support you.You can call Charles to pester him anyway.After all, he's spare all day...Remember to call
me when you reach Japan."
Christina listened to Crystal say a lot.She praised in her mind that Crystal was really considerate about
everything and she must be someone's good wife in the future.
The next morning, people in the Hopkins family got up at four or five as usual.
Christina's flight was at 9: 00 in the morning.
Even if Christina needed to arrive at the airport an hour earlier, she still had plenty of time to have
breakfast with Senior Mr.Hopkins and others.
"Your mother and Brianna are on vacation in Japan.And I have several friends there.If you go to the
local jails, go and ask for my friends’ help.They are local.They have ways."
Senior Mr.Hopkins said these astonishing words to her.
Christina sighed, "Grandpa, why would I go to the jail for no reason?"
Senior Mr.Hopkins didn't allow anyone to challenge his authority.
He snorted and lectured, "The mighty dragon is no match for the native serpent.Don't you understand
that? It's just in case." Christina was speechless.She lowered her head and ate porridge silently.
It was just a two-day business trip.
It was not even an adventure.
It was not a big deal.
Compared to Crystal, Charles, and Senior Mr.Hopkins, who were almost neurotic, Patrick was at ease.
Patrick didn't express worries, which made Christina satisfied.
Christina came to hug her two sons before leaving.
"Sons, I'm going out to make money.Be good" Christina looked at her sons, fat and cute, and ruffled
their soft hair.
And Christina took the initiative to kiss Patrick on the cheek, which was a rare thing Christina would do.
She said in a low voice, "I'll be back in two days." Patrick watched Christina get into the car.
The driver would take Christina to the airport.
Patrick was with a usual look.
But he seemed very silent today.
He only nodded at Christina.
The car slowly drove away...
