Chapter 533


    “Did you hiding anything from me?”


    “I felt Brianna was weird…”


    Patrick got a little impatient. He interrupted her, “Where’s the Ancient Coin you picked up before?”


    “Every time I talk about Brianna, you think I’m the one who’s causing trouble…”


    “Tell me! Where is the Ancient Coin?”


    Christina did not expect him to suddenly mention that Ancient Coin. His eyes were so sharp that made


    she felt a little ufortable. She replied in a low voice, “It’s not with me.”


    But Patrick didn’t want to let her off, “So where is it?”


    He stared at her with his sharp eyes. Christina slowly squeezed out a few words, “I gave it to Derek.”


    as


    For Patrick, this is an unexpected answer. But he tried to ask her as calmly as possible, “Do you know


    that this Ancient Coin is the badge of the Strozzi family?”


    “When Derek saw it, he had told me about this.”


    Christina told him with hiding anything. At that time, she did not attach any importance to a so-called


    family badges. After she gave the coin to Derek, he had never pestered her.


    “That ck cat appeared in the area of Crescent Garden where Derek lived at first. If it was the ck


    cat named Earl, it might also be the strozzi family’s…”


    Patrick’s voice was firm and cold as if he were dealing with business.


    Christina didn’t take it seriously. “So what?”


    “It’s just a cat. Besides, the… what family? It is none of my business. I don’t know at all…”


    Then, Christina changed the topic with a gloomy expresssion, “Besides, I don’t think a cat is important.


    The most important thing now is about Brianna. I suspect that Crystal’s miscarriage is rted to her…”


    Patrick suddenly took a big step towards her with a cold face.


    Frightened by his action, Christina took a step back and sat down on the bed.


    She looked up at Patrick and felt a little nervous.


    She didn’t dare to look into his eyes, “What are you doing?”


    She felt that Patrick was strangely serious tonight.


    He didn’t talk so much about “Business” with her before.


    “You might know that you’re not Donald’s biological daughter,” Patrick said directly and sharply. “Your


    mother, Mary, dated a lot of men when she was young. She identally conceived you after she dated


    with a strange man in the bar. You don’t know who your biological father is.”


    It made Christina extremely embarrassed when her privacy was revealed in this way.


    Christina yelled at him, “So what! There’s nothing to do with you!”


    She was a daughter of the decaying Dickens family. She was illegitimate. She didn’t know who her


    father is. But, no matter what, she had to protect the reputation of her family. No matter how poor the


    Dickens family was, it was still her home.


    Compared to this grandson of the Hopkins family, she felt a sense of inferiority..


    “… I, I mean your mother and that man.”


    near


    ?


    Patrick also seemed to realize that his tone was too serious. Noticing her upset, he regretted being too


    anxious.


    “He might be from the strozzi family,” he said in a low and soft voice.


    “So what?”


    Christina still replied in an aggressive way, because she was in a rage.


    Patrick squinted at Christina. He tried tomunicate with her with patience. His hands was put on her


    shoulders and his cold face came closer. He looked into her eyes and told her word by word.


    “If your biological father is a member of the Strozzi family, they will probably take you back.” His tone


    was oozing with a sense of solemnity.


    Christina was so nervous that she couldn’t think about anything, “Back where?”


    Patrick pursed his lips and continued to stare at her without a word.


    He was sure that Christina knew nothing about the Strozzi family.


    “… Where is that Strozzi family from?” Now, she became a little curious.


    Patrick put down his hands. He looked a little strange, as if a host of thoughts were pressing in on him,


    “You can’t go back anyway.” His voice was cold and firm. After leaving these words, he turned around


    and walked out of the room.


    Christina looked at his back in a daze. She was interrogated by him as she came into the main


    bedroom. Now he left without a exnation.


    Thinking of the nder of Brianna and punishment from grandpa, she felt a stirring of anger. She


    grabbed the pillow of Patrick, threw it on the ground, and kicked it to vent her anger.


    “… Ice man, nasty. I haven’t been in my bedroom for half a month. As soon as I came in, you didn’t


    care about me at all. You even scolded me.”


    “… Madman. Don’t you know I will go abroad like Crystal? Humph.”


    Patrick’s pillow was trampled and kicked to the trash can.


    She took a hot bath to calm herself down and went to bed. As for the “Strozzi family” Patrick just


    mentioned, she was not interested at all, let alone go back to live with her biological father.


    “Meown” the ck cat squatted outside the balcony. Its dark hair blended into the night and its action


    was silent, which enabled it to avoid any sight of human, including Patrick’s.


    Ever since Crystal went abroad, Christina always felt that there was something lost in her life.


    was som


    After all, she had rare friends. Her only friend suddenly went abroad. So she was not used to it.


    Moreover, even the ck cat, that had frequently appeared in front of her before, had disappeared.


    “… Did Patrick caught it?” She suspected.


    But she always felt that it was not easy to catch that ck cat.


    After breakfast, she wandered around the house. Her first destination was her twin son’s nursery.


    If it weren’t because of grandpa’s strict rules, she would have been able to walk around with the babies,


    so that she would not be so boring.


    “Meow -”


    As she stepped into the nursery, she heard a sound of cat.


    It was not as arrogant as the usual sound. It seemed to be very helpless. “Meow…” It was also oozing


    with a sense of helplessness.


    Christina fixed her eyes and froze in surprise.


    It was really the ck cat named Earl.


    And it was ying with her son in the nursery…


    “Mrs. Hopkins” The maid in the room greeted her as she saw her.


    “What’s going on!” Christina felt panic, pointing at the dangerous ck cat. “How can it y with the


    babies…” Her tone became shrill because of anxiety.


    The ck cat’s ws were poisonous!


    “Mrs. Hopkins, this cat…” The maid looked embarrassed and was about to exin.


    Christina had run to the bed and held the ck cat with her arms, separating it from the babies.


    To her surprise, the ck cat did not struggle or resist. It was obedient when being held by Christina. It


    lowered its tail and seemed to be relieved.


    Her younger son, Small, immediately burst into tears.


    “Whoa, whoa, whoa -” the little guy had already learned how to crawl. The tears rolled down from his


    pink face. He waved his hands, wanting this cat.


    The ck cat was startled. It shrank into Christina’s arms, while its four feet were grasping her clothes


    and refused to get down.


    “Mrs. Hopkins, Small likes to hug this cat very much.” The maid exined in a low voice.


    Christina looked at the ck cat and asked, “Are you afraid of my son?”


    As soon as she asked, Christina saw her son crying much more loudly. He pulled the cat’s tail rudely


    with his chubby hands. The ck cat got frightened. Then it fell back onto the small bed. Small hugged


    his furry new pet contentedly, and rubbed the cat’s head with her little face. “Meow, meow~”


    Christina got frozen for a while.


    She had noment about the fact that the ck cat was yed by her son. Instead, she turned to

    ask the maids expressionlessly. “Did you tell grandpa that the baby can speak?”


    Her son was almost a year old and finally learned to how to speak. But he didn’t call his parents or his


    grandfather first, but imitating the sound of a cat..
