My billionaire husband spoils me too much novel Chapter 445

Christina and the others stayed for dinner at the Shepherd family. Ms. Hopkins rushed to call people in the Hopkins family to report. She glared at Christina with her phone in hand, as if warning Christina not to be a snitch.

On the other end of the phone, Senior Mr. Hopkins felt sorry when he heard that Brianna and Charles's blind date was ruined, but he couldn't do anything.

Mrs. Shepherd liked to cook by herself, but she was afraid that the home-cooked dishes may not be enough. In order to satisfy Ms. Hopkins and Judy, Mrs. Shepherd ordered the meal from a hotel. Ms. Hopkins and the others enjoy the sumptuous dishes delivered very much.

Mr. Shepherd was gentle and always had a faint smile. Charles obviously inherited his father's personality. His second and third brothers, on the other hand, were more like Mrs. Shepherd. One of them claimed that he didn't know whether he liked men or women, and the other often went to excavate ancient tombs. And Shepherd, who was absent today... His seat was empty.

Christina noticed that the guests of the Shepherd family tried to look happy. There seemed to be something that worried the whole family.

Finishing the meal quickly, Charles' second brother stood up and nodded at the elders including Ms. Hopkins and Judy. "Enjoy your meal..." He was in a hurry and strode out of the door to make a phone call.

After a while, the second brother came back again and whispered to Mr. Shepherd. Then Mr. Shepherd's face darkened... The father and sons in the Shepherd family then left the table and went to the study together.

"What happened?"

Ms. Hopkins also saw that the family members were a little strange. She looked dissatisfied and thought that the Shepherd family was indeed not as disciplined as the Hopkins family. They should treat distinguished guests like this.

Mrs. Shepherd looked a little embarrassed. "There should be news of my eldest son. Sorry about that."

In fact, Mrs. Shepherd had already regretted agreeing to a blind date with someone from the Hopkins family. Recently, their family was worried about the loss of contact with their eldest son. But since the Hopkins family asked them for a blind date, they could not refuse, especially when they had to ask Patrick to help her eldest son.

"Has Peter been found?"

Christina cut in anxiously, ignoring the elders' conversation.

Ms. Hopkins immediately glared at her again and shouted, "It's not your turn to speak. Don't embarrass the Hopkins family!"

Christina took her for air and jumped up from her chair. She ran to Mrs. Shepherd and asked again, "Mrs. Shepherd, has Peter been found ..."

"I, I don't know." Mrs. Shepherd was also nervous because of Christina's anxiety. Mrs. Shepherd looked in the direction of the study and sighed, "Your uncle told me not to worry too much. They will find a solution..."

Ms. Hopkins couldn't bear for Christina's ignoring her. Ms. Hopkins was so angry that she banged the table with her hand. "You really don't know to be polite. My dad will hear about this when I go back..."

Christina was angry as well, "Ms. Hopkins, you're an old lady who is almost sixty years old. Get rid of the Princess sickness!"

"How dare you!"

Ms. Hopkins had never been called "Old lady". She was so angry that she almost couldn't breathe.

Being too angry to remember the etiquette, Ms. Hopkins screamed, "You little bitch, let me teach you a lesson today..."

Seeing Ms. Hopkins make trouble, Mrs. Shepherd didn't know what to do for a moment. Fortunately, Charles strode over from the study. "Christina." He called.

When Ms. Hopkins saw Charles coming over, she calmed down to realize that she was at the Shepherd family. She had to be polite. Then she heard Charles shout, "Patrick wants to talk to you." As Charles spoke, he raised his phone.

Charles's behavior made Ms. Hopkins grit her teeth. Her arrogant nephew was a real handful.

"Why is it so noisy over there?"

Christina took the phone. Before she could speak, Patrick asked in a low voice.

"Nothing." She held her phone and walked to the french window.

Of course, Patrick recognized that it was Ms. Hopkins's voice, which was sharp and harsh.

Christina would never tell Patrick about these things. Even if he asked, Christina would muddle through coldly. Patrick hoped that she could complain to him, but she didn't like to do so.

"Why are you looking for me?" Christina asked him as he remained silent.

Patrick couldn't answer for a moment. Christina had already fallen asleep when he went back last night. In the morning, he went out again before she woke up. When he got home in the afternoon, she was in the Shepherd family.

"The cook is preparing Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."

His words were confusing for people at the scene, but all the Hopkins family knew that Christina liked this dish.

"I'm full." She didn't understand why he said such a boring thing. Actually, she didn't have a preference for food.

Patrick didn't seem to have anything important to say to her but suddenly Christina remembered that she needed his help for an urgent matter.

"Patrick, could you please send someone to look for Shepherd and Derek... I'm afraid they're in danger."

Patrick, who was on the other end of the phone, was silent for a while. He was probably surprised by her sudden request.

Christina sounded anxious. "Get someone to check if the two of them have entered and left Italy..." She then emphasized, "Derek has been out of contact for two months."

"I know." Patrick's tone was complicated.

He had always sent people to locate Derek's whereabouts, but every time she said the name "Derek," it made his mood complicated. The two of them remained silent.

"Come home early." Finally, Patrick said this to her on the phone.

Christina said yes and then hung up.

"Christina, how did you know that both of them have gone to Italy?" Charles walked up to her, overhearing their conversation.

Christina returned the phone to him and perfunctorily said, "I guessed ."

Charles didn't ask more. Ms. Hopkins at the table looked angry. She said coldly to Mrs. Shepherd as if she had been badly treated.
