Chapter 19
Reporters swarmed outside the house of the Dickens Family, all of whom were agitated and stretched
out to hand microphones to Donald to ask
questions.
“Mr. Dickens, it is known that the heroine in the popular video online is Christina, your biological
daughter.”
“Miss Dickens jumped into the river to save her ex-husband, Cory. Is she doing this because she was
abandoned and is now dying to win Cory’s heart back?”
“Mr. Dickens! Mr. Dickens, I just got
the latest news from the hospital that
your daughter Christina disappeared for no reason. What is your opinion on this matter?.
Donald was annoyed by these aggressive questions. His face clouded
over and he coldly spoke into the
microphone, “Christina is not my daughter!”
“She’s my wife!”
Patrick Strode out of the car. His low. cold voice made the reporters in front
of him turn their heads abruptly…
Patrick stepped forward and stood in
the spotlight, staring at the cameras and looking around coldly.
Charles then got out of the car, who was very surprised. Patrick kept a very low profile and had always
been very dismissive of media interviews. However, when Patrick now stood in
front of the camera, he had a haughty
manner.
The reporters looked at Patrick, who
suddenly appeared, with a puzzled expression. They did not know him, but
judging from his temperament, they
thought that he must be born with a
Silver Spoon.
One of the reporters handed Patrick
the microphone and asked timidly.
“Excuse me, sir, since you said you are Miss Dickens’s current husband, what
do you think of Miss Dickens jumping
into the river at her own risk to save
her ex-husband?”
Patrick’s face clouded over. Instead of answering her, he stretched out his long arm to grab the
microphone.
He stared at the camera with a sinister look. His eyes were fierce, and he was like an angry beast, full
of rage and fury. The reporter in front of him was so frightened by his murderous look that she took a
step back subconsciously.
He clenched the microphone in his hand. His lips were slightly parted, and he warned fiercely.
“Whoever kidnapped her, bring her back intact within two hours! Or I’ll have you all buried with her.”
His words stunned everyone present.
Most of the interviews were live, so his menacing warning was spread
everywhere almost at the same time.
“Did Miss kidnapped?!”
Dickens really get Someone screamed
excitedly
However, the reporters present were also very confused. It was common for rich people to be
kidnapped, but no one dared to give a warning like this in front of the camera for fear that kidnappers novelbin
would be enraged and kill the hostage. Some people did not even dare to call the police
Someone asked hesitantly. “Who are
you, sir?”
Cory seemed very angry. He rushed forward and grabbed Patrick by the collar, “Are you crazy?
“Before we find out who kidnapped her, we can’t make it widely knownı. Those kidnappers will kill her!”
Patrick hated being approached and he pushed Cory away
When Charles saw that Patrick was about to start a fight, he immediately ran over to stop them.
Charles faced the camera with a relatively calm look.
“I would like to make a statement here about the kidnapping of Christina”said Charles, who was in
constant contact with the media and had excellent social
skills.
He said calmly, “No matter what your intentions are or whether you are being taken advantage of, you’d
better not touch her. Christina is the granddaughter-in-law of Hopkins Family. If you send her back
intact, we will consider not investigating and affixing the responsibility for the
incident. Otherwise…” He did not continue.
Everyone knew the consequences of going against Hopkins Family
Shock and disbelief were on the faces of the reporters. Of course, they knew Charles, but the one
beside him…
He was Patrick, the grandson of Hopkins Family, who had just returned
home.
At this moment, a bodyguard rushed over to report to Patrick, “Young master, there is no news of
Young Madam in the cemetery”
Patrick seemed impatient. He walked to the left. The reporters seemed afraid of him and immediately
got out
of his way.
His gloomy face took on a ghastly
expression, and all the reporters were
quiet. No one dared to say anything Looking straight at his cold face, they inexplicably became
nervous.
Patrick approached Donald, the middle-aged man, and surveyed him.
Donald was stared at Patrick. Although Patrick was his junior, he was still a
little afraid of Patrick
Donald did not know how did his stubborn daughter hook up with him. Patrick disdained to marry her
even when he knew that she was the daughter of Dickens Family and that she was pregnant
“Send your men to look for her!”
Patrick looked at Donald with cold eyes. Patrick showed Donald no respect and spoke to Donald in an
almost commanding tone.
“Send your men to look for her. If you can’t find her, then we don’t have to be in-laws!” Patrick’s last
words were clearly a warning
If the Hopkins Family and the Dickens Family couldn’t be in-laws, then they would become enemies.
No one would be that stupid to annoy Hopkins Family
In C City, the Dickens Family had more local connections and was more familiar with locations. When
Patrick asked Donald for help, if he refused to
help Patrick, he would go against Patrick
Donald’s face clouded over. He could not refuse Patrick, who was as ruthless as the story had it,
leaving no leeway for the other party
“Mr. Hopkins, we’re a family. Please come in first.” Mrs. Dickens walked out the house and said to
Patrick with a fawning smile on her face.
Patrick glanced at Mrs. Dickens. He didn’t even bother to show respect to his own grandfather, let
alone a strange old woman.
However, when Patrick glanced over the living room of the Dickens Family, he noticed that Carrie and
Connie were both in the house. Carrie was
frightened. Her hand was shaking as she held the phone, as if she was afraid of something
Patrick looked at the two women with a thoughtful expression and said to the bodyguard beside him,
“Tell the Ministry of Industry and Information
Technology that I want anonymous information today..”
As soon as he said these, there was a loud bang, Carrie looked startled and dropped her phone on the
floor.
Patrick turned his head and looked at
her with a fierce look. His sharp eyes made Carrie’s legs weak…
“Mr. Hopkins, I have news!”
The
two bodyguards ran
over
