Spoil My Errant Wife

Chapter 69: Lie on the Bed 

Christina had dinner in Hopkins Family.

Although she was not as restrained as she used to be, she watched her manners carefully, not daring to be rude.

Patrick and Mr.Hopkins paid great attention to table etiquette.They ate elegantly with chopsticks and rarely talked.

She stuffed a spoonful of nutritious porridge into her mouth and secretly looked at the man beside her from the corner of her eyes.

Patrick didn't seem to have any appetite.

He only chewed on a few vegetables and then put down his chopsticks.

Christina's eyes suddenly lit up.

She seemed to notice that Patrick's brows were slightly knit as if he was holding back something.

Even there was a little sweat on his forehead...

Christina peered into his eyes and unconsciously leaned closer to him.

"Christina, what are you looking at?"

Mr.Hopkins sitting opposite her asked in a calm voice, feeling that she was not decent with her body leaned when having dinner.

Patrick turned his head and happened to have eye contact with Christina.

Suddenly, his eyes met hers.

They were surprised at first, then Christina blushed and turned away quickly and guiltily as if she had done something wrong.

"Nothing."

She glanced around awkwardly and then her eyes fell at the pot of delicious sea cucumber stew on the table.She made an excuse.

"I want some soup..."

The maid, who was at the side, heard her and immediately went forward to fill her a bowl.

Although she should avoid certain food during pregnancy, she could have this chicken stewed with sea cucumber.

But the soup was very hot.

To cover up her behavior, Christina lowered her head and leaned closer to the bowl of soup, blowing it continuously, looking like she was greedy and really wanted to drink it.

"Take your time.” Patrick stood up from his chair and his voice was a little hoarse.

He left the table and placed his not-so-hot bowl of soup in front of Christina.

Christina slightly widened her eyes and raised her face, but her face happened to touch Patrick's retracted hand.

"Your hand is so hot” She said subconsciously.

She frowned slightly and looked straight at him.

Patrick seemed to be hiding something that he didn't want people to know.

He looked cold-faced and unhappy.

Not wanting to look at her, he quickly turned around and left without saying a word.

"Hey, did you catch a cold because of soaking in the river before..."

Christina remembered that when she was discharged from the hospital, Charles said that Patrick had a bit of cold.

She moved very quickly, as if it was her instinctive reaction, and reached out to grab Patrick's wrist.

In the middle of what Christina said, his face suddenly changed and he suddenly stood up from his chair.

"You have a high fever!"

Patrick heard her exclamation, and his face was a little unhappy.

With a wave of his right hand, he tried to get rid of her.

"Let go."

His deep voice was hoarse.

But she held on tight, or perhaps Patrick didn't use too much force.

Christina only felt his skin hot, and anxiety and nervousness welled up in her heart.

"Patrick, have you taken any antipyretic?"

Patrick didn't answer her.
