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 popr 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


    thetest 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 wasmon 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


    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 cor, “Are you crazy?


    “Before we find out who kidnapped her, we can’t make it widely known?. 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 rtively 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-inw 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


    almostmanding tone.


    “Send your men to look for her. If you can’t find her, then we don’t have to be inws!” Patrick’sst


    words were clearly a warning


    If the Hopkins Family and the Dickens Family couldn’t be inws, then they would be 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. Pleasee in first.” Mrs. Dickens walked out the house and said to


    Patrick with a fawning smile on her face.


    Patrick nced at Mrs. Dickens. He didn’t even bother to show respect to his own grandfather, let


    alone a strange old woman.


    However, when Patrick nced 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!”
