"It would be better for you to think of your name," Mikhail added. "Hamilton name would carry more weight than the Hopkins name."
Jerlina thought about it. She already is using the logo of the Hamilton glassware company. And it won't be that hard to change the name of the company. Maybe she should.
Speaking of name changes made Jerlina realize something.
I am still Jerlina Hopkins! I am married to the most amazing man in the world! Why am I still Jerlina Hopkins?
She used to feel weird when Mikhail addressed her as Ms. Hopkins. But today, it felt unbearably weird as it was wrong. And now she realized the reason.
She might be considered old-school but she always wanted to take her husband's name after marriage. Partly because she hated the Hopkins name.
Yes, that is the name her grandfather chose and used. But it also is the name of her father. The name of her father which was taken by her stepmother and stepsister who abused her.
