Chapter 776


    “Patrick, do you know General Eisenhower from the ￠ City?” Charles seemed to be quite interested in


    the Eisenhower family after meeting Christina.


    In fact, Senior Mr. Hopkins had nned toe with Charles, but he said that it was rare for him to


    prestigious General Eisenhower.


    Patrick didn’t expect his jerk friend to bring up the topic of the Eisenhower family.


    Patrick’s deep eyes shed with surprise, and then he quietly said, “Yes, I do.”


    Charles continued, “That General Eisenhower had a bad temper that was simr to Senior Mr. Hopkins.


    My grandfather often mentioned that the two of them had fought like cats and dogs in the past. They


    have known each other for a long time, but General Eisenhower was in politics and seemed to despise


    Senior Mr. Hopkins and my grandfather’s businesses…”


    Speaking of this, Charles giggled and touched his nose.


    He didn’t know if it’s true or not that General Eisenhower had looked down on the Shepherd and


    Hopkins family. They were all arrogant people, naturally, they rarely contacted each other.


    “My grandfather used to have some connections with General Eisenhower.”


    Because Old Master Shepherd was a gentleman, as hister generation, Charles was gentle as well,


    along with being a little stubborn.


    “I heard that General Eisenhower had raised a little girl on his own. My grandfather saw her once and


    bought a lot of gifts for her, saying that he wanted that girl to be my wife in the future. That girl was


    General Eisenhower’s granddaughter, who was loved by the Eisenhower family. I bet that she must


    have been adorable, for my grandfather’s eyes sparkled when he saw her and insisted on taking her


    home as his grandson’s wife.”


    Patrick’s expression changed slightly, and his mood fluctuated when hearing Charles’ words.


    Charles did not notice his strange behavior at this moment and continued.


    “Unfortunately, the Eisenhower family turned up nose at us. General Eisenhower had told my


    grandfather to stop dreaming with a long face. He was too arrogant, right? If not, maybe I already had a


    baby wife when I was a child.” Such a pity


    “Oh, what a pity, Patrick answered in an odd tone,


    Charles stopped talking and started to feel awkward. Why was Patrick suddenly in a bad mood across


    the table?


    Just now,” Charles was thinking about what he had said wrong, and when he met Patrick’s unkind


    gaze, he was


    stunned and began to say nonsense, “I saw a girl just now. She really looked like Mary, the most


    rumored socialite in my father’s generation, General Eisenhower’s eldest daughter.”


    Patrick seemed to be reminded of something. He suddenly raised his head again and looked around to


    find her in the restaurant carefully, but he failed.


    Charles muttered to himself,” It’s strange that General Eisenhower, who is so old-fashioned, gave birth


    to such a mboyant daughter as Mary. I heard that Betty Eisenhower, another younger daughter of


    him, was quite docile and a talented woman. She is almost 50 years old now and hasn’t married yet.


    The Eisenhower family seemingly didn’t have good luck on bringing heirs.”


    After the meal, they left the restaurant.


    Walking out of Central Square, Patrick asked coolly, “Do you know the Eisenhower family very well?”


    Charles grinned. “That’s because my mom is too jealous, worrying that Mary may be her rival in love,


    so we have done enough research in private.”


    When Charles lowered his head, he realized that Patrick had a brown paper file in his left hand, which


    looked


    confidential.


    Charles asked curiously, “Patrick, what’s that?”


    It seemed that Patrick was guilty by his sudden question. He clenched the file in his hand even tighter


    but answered coldly. “Nothing.” It was obvious that he didn’t want to tell him.


    The papers Patrick had were about the Eisenhower family and Dickens family.


    Since Patrick refused to say anything more, Charles didn’t have the guts to inquire. He shook his head


    and sighed, “I heard that Mary had died a few years ago. Her husband, Donald Dickens, also married a


    new woman.. General Eisenhower’s beloved granddaughter is now estimated to be abused by her


    stepmother. Oh, if she was willing to marry me back then, she would have a good life.”


    Patrick nced at him coldly.


    Charles thought that he himself might have talked too much about the granddaughter of General


    Eisenhower that Patrick was not interested in. He chuckled, Patrick indeed didn’t like to listen to the


    gossip.


    No matter how thick skulled Charles was, there was one thing that he clearly noticed. When they went


    back to the hotel they were staying and passed by a small milk tea shop beside the gate, Patrick


    especially looked into the milk tea shop


    Charles caught his unusual behavior and was in a daze for a moment.


    Patrick became weird after he came back this time.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    Charles was not interested in participating in the campus activities jointly organized by several ordinary


    high schools and decisively chose to have fun in a fancy nightclub in the C City.


    Patrick was originally invited to get high with him. However, he actually refused him with three words,


    “Prepare for ss,” which had shocked Charles out of his wits.


    At 7 p.m., night fell.


    Spotlights were focused on the stage in the middle of the school’s event square, and the campus


    activities began in earnest.


    Christina was wearing a long, dark blue v-neck evening dress tonight. The upper part of the dress was


    dark blue satin decorated with sparkling diamonds. The tight design set off her exquisite figure, which


    wrapped her arms across her bosom with a deep v-neck. Her long legs were revealed from the dress’s


    hemline with blue yarn, which was fancy and dreamlike.


    The evening dress seemed to have been tailor-made for her as if it was not a campus activity at all, but


    rather the most eye-catching top performance on the big screen, bringing out her cold elegance and


    nobility to distinguish the gap between her and the male host beside her.


    “I sympathize with the man next to her.” Cindy tittered under the stage.


    “I didn’t expect him to be even more miserable than Sonnyst year.”


    Christina had been the hostess of several important school events, and generally, the male host


    standing next to her became cannon fodder. This year, her evening dress was surprisingly high-end.


    Although the male host was the most handsome sophomore, there was no match for them. It was


    tragic.


    The teachers and students below the stage were full of seats. The open-air football field became the


    camp for them to watch the performance, and many students from other schools entered either.


    There were ten performances in total, including short ys, crosstalk, second-dimensional inte


    songs and dances, piano and violin ensemble… And a chorus in the end. The teacher judges in the


    front row would rate the performances and awarded the prize for which had won the ce.


    Christina was not stressed. She had been familiar with being the hostess. She only needed to


    memorize the speech and interact with the male host. Every time a new performance was on, she had


    to go on stage and then go backstage to wait.


    The only expectation was to wait for the event to end as soon as possible. She had watched the


    rehearsals many times and was tired of it. Women’s Day was so grand on campus that she felt that it


    was not appropriate, but the leaders paid special attention to it,


    Looking at her expensive evening gown, she felt that it was worth at least 50000 dors. If it was made


    by a famous designer, the price would double or even triple. The school’s sponsors were too generous


    this time.
