Chapter 18: She's My Wife
"Don't run! Catch her:" The footsteps behind her were approaching.
After hearing that rough voice, Christina ran away in panic in the direction of the elevator...
"Let me go."
She kept pressing the elevator nervously.
As soon as the door opened, she wanted to rush in.
Unexpectedly, on the other side of the stairs, a tall and ferocious man rushed over and caught her.
The man roughly grabbed her by the neck and warned her, "You heard it just now.It was Patrick who said the child should be aborted.You'd better cooperate, or else don't blame us for being rude!"
When Christina heard the man mention the name Patrick, her eyes reddened and she retorted, "No! It is my child.I won't abort it!"
"Mr.Hopkins said that you have no right to bear his child!"
Aman in doctor's robe rushed over, he shouted impatiently at the other two men, "Hurry up and do it!"
"Don't." She was so scared that she almost burst into tears.
"Let me go, I don't want an abortion..."
She was so frightened that she trembled and kept struggling and writhing.
She cried out in shock, "Help.Help me, I don't want that.Let me go."
"What's that sound?"
It was the hospital shift time, and the corridor of the inpatient department was relatively quiet.
Two nurses happened to pass by and looked around in confusion.
"What are you doing?"
The nurses walked towards the source of the sound and saw three men sneaking around the stairs.
"We're cleaning up some special medical waste..."
Then there was a loud bang, and two men in white doctor's robes heavily covered a large lid.
The nurse felt a little strange, but the three men opposite had already pushed the white bucket into the elevator.
"I don't think I've seen these doctors.Which department are they from?"
"Never mind, our hospital is big with many interns..."
The other nurse watched the elevator doors slowly close and said casually.
The elevator doors closed and it quickly descended to the underground parking lot.
Christina was thrown into the big bucket of dirty bed sheets and the lid on her head was pressed tightly.
She was suffocating, breathing stiffly, losing oxygen, and losing consciousness...
‘Why is Patrick so cruel?’ "Why doesn't he listen to my explanation...
She was depressed and desperate, and her mind was in a mess.
Before she fainted, she heard a sinister voice, "We got the money, we should get rid of her as soon as possible.’’
"Have you done?"
The door was impatiently pushed open, and Patrick's cold voice came. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Charles had just hung up the phone and looked up at him.
Patrick looked aggressive and furious.
No wonder he was so angry at the hospital.
It was because of this video.
"All relevant videos on the Internet have been removed, and the major media have been notified to keep an eye on users from uploading and spreading...’’ Charles said and casually asked, "By the way, how is Christina now?"
Patrick looked gloomy when he heard the name.
Charles lowered his head to avoid provoking Patrick.
He swiped his phone and opened a video he had saved.
He couldn't believe that Christina had the guts to jump into the river to save Cory.
When Charles saw Christina crawling up the river with a soaked body, he whispered, "I didn't know she was so hot.No wonder this video is so popular..."
When Patrick heard Charles muttering, his face immediately darkened and he gave Charles a warning look.
Charles shrank and quickly deleted the video.
Charles quickly changed the subject.
"Patrick, it seems that every time something happens to Christina, you will receive an anonymous message.Did you find out the source…’’ Charles asked a serious question, which was very rare for him, but Patrick looked a little absent-minded.
He was thinking about something else.
Charles secretly looked at him and was very curious about what Patrick was thinking.
All of a sudden, Patrick stood up.
He said coldly with an irritable expression, "Send the anonymous information to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to check, we'll know the situation tomorrow.’’
With that, Patrick strode straight towards the door with mixed feelings.
Charles looked at his back and shouted at him, "Are you really going to ignore Christina and go back to A City on your own?"
Patrick had never been patient with women.
He would leave Christina alone under such circumstances, but...
After spending a few days together with Christina, Charles somewhat took Christina as his friend.
So he muttered, "Christina must be very weak after being soaked in the river during the winter..."
Was he really going to leave her alone? Patrick's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Inexplicably, the thought of Christina being scolded by him in the hospital upset him.
The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became.
Just then, the front door was forced open.
"Where is Christina now?"
Cory's eager voice came, and his sudden appearance surprised Charles and the others.
Charles remembered the video in which Cory was rescued and suddenly confessed to Christina for forgiveness.
Was he concerned about his ex-wife? Patrick stared at his girlfriend's ex.
There was no need for Patrick to speak.
The bodyguards outside the door quickly ran in.
Then two bodyguards grabbed Cory from both sides.
"Take him out!" Patrick ordered impatiently.
Normally, Cory was a little afraid of his cousin.
However, he didn't care now.
He just struggled desperately and shouted at Patrick, "Where is Christina now?"
"Patrick, I admit that I betrayed her.But you slept with her and made her pregnant.Christina herself was not willing to have this child.Then what did you do? You forced her to marry her.You never respected her wishes.You're no better than me..."
Charles was shocked that Cory dared to say those words to Patrick.
He turned his head to look at Patrick.
As expected, Patrick was holding back his anger.
It seemed like he would explode at any moment.
He immediately urged the bodyguards, "Get him out of here!"
Cory was pulled by two tall bodyguards, looking livid with anger and asking anxiously, "Patrick, where's Christina?"
"Patrick, she's so weak now.I can't believe that you've asked someone to abort her child.She's been nothing to you but a tool for you to have a child, right?"
Patrick was on the verge of exploding.
Suddenly, he reached out his right hand and grabbed a fruit knife from the table.
Without hesitation, he threw it at Cory.
The fruit knife narrowly brushed past Cory's head, cut off a strand of his hair, flew straight over, and suddenly settled on the carved solid wood door.
Its blade was gleaming with cold light.
Cory seemed to be frightened by the sudden move.
He immediately shut up and a drop of cold sweat slid down his forehead.
"You have no right to judge what I did to her!"
Patrick's suppressed voice sounded cold and deep.
The words were squeezed out of his teeth word by word, and his eyes were filled with something, like jealousy.
Even Charles was a little shocked.
He had known Patrick for so many years and had never seen him act that way.
He had always been indifferent to anything.
It seemed that something very important to him was being invaded, which agitated him.
‘‘Patrick would be jealous too?"
‘‘Cory said that Patrick had Christina's baby aborted’’ Charles thought it was impossible.
Patrick only said that because he was in anger.
Charles was the first to come back to his senses.
He looked at Cory thoughtfully and asked, "Isn't Christina in the hospital?"
Why did he keep asking where Christina was?
"Hospital?" Cory sneered.
"Patrick, the nurse at the hospital said that you went to look for Christina at noon.When she woke up, you even told her to have an abortion.You only did this to her because she jumped into the river to save me."
"You said that she was not qualified to have your child.Okay, after she aborts this child, she is done with you.Now tell me, where exactly did you hide Christina?"
Patrick was so angry that he was stunned by the words.
He immediately grabbed his cell phone and called the hospital.He looked gloomy and surprised.
"She's not in the hospital!"
"Patrick, don't pretend to be innocent.I checked at the hospital an hour ago.Not long after you left, three men took Christina away.Besides you, no one else dares to do such a thing openly!"
Cory yelled at Patrick angrily.
Patrick was ruthless.
Within just over a month after he returned home, he had reformed the company.
Even when the top management of the company was dissatisfied with him, they dared not say anything.
Patrick ignored him and looked at Charles behind him.
The two immediately hurried out of the room.
As Patrick walked, he said to the bodyguards beside him.
"Send someone to the cemetery to see if Christina is there.’’ Charles became anxious, and he went into the elevator side by side with Patrick.
"Patrick, who dared to openly kidnap Christina? I think that the people who know us would not dare to hurt her..."
After all, Christina was the granddaughter-in-law of the Hopkins Family.
Whoever intended to hurt her would be doomed.
Cory saw them in such a hurry and immediately rushed into the elevator.
"Didn't you send anyone to take her away?"
He glared at Patrick and questioned.
If it wasn't Patrick, then who was it? Patrick didn't even look at Cory.
Instead, he continued to order coldly on his phone.
"Send someone to contact the local head of the gangs and say I’m looking for someone…’’
If it was not done by the people who were in their circle, then it was done by the gangs.
The bodyguards noticed their young master's impatient tone over the phone and did not dare to delay for a moment.
They said yes and immediately sent someone to do it.
The elevator arrived on the first floor.
Patrick, Charles, and Cory quickly walked out of the lobby.
The car outside was already waiting.
"To the Dickens Family!"
He ordered in a cold voice.
It was C City, and the Dickens Family was the most powerful in C City.
The car sped all the way to the Dickens Family.
To their surprise, the door of the Dickens Family was already crowded with media reporters.
Donald was being questioned by reporters.
He seemed to be annoyed and shouted, "Christina is not my daughter! Her shameful things have nothing to do with me..."
"She's my wife!"
Patrick strode out of the car with a darkened face.
The reporters turn around surprisedly after hearing the cold and gloomy voice…
