Chapter 553
The bedroom door was slammed open.
Nanny Faang rushed out in a panic and even stammered. “The babies are missing.”
Christina was so scared by Brianna’s call that she didn’t come back to her senses. She looked at the nanny blankly for a while. “What?”
“What do you mean by missing?”
Nanny Faang pinched her thigh hard, trying to calm herself down as soon as possible. She dared not to cause any trouble, and then her voice became a little calmer.
“The two babies are not in their room. We are looking for them now.” her tone was still trembling.
This had never happened.
Everyone knew that the two babies in the Hopkins family were valued very much. They were surrounded by nannies and maids, and there were cameras everywhere to make sure that there was no danger for the two babies. Now the two babies should be missing?! Everyone became panicked.
“Where are the babies?”
It was late in the morning. Everyone was so tired that they felt a little confused. Christina was also dazed and couldn’t believe the news.
Nanny Faang was very guilty. With her head half-lowered, she did not dare to answer, “I don’t know.”
Now she could only hope that nothing bad happened. She hoped that the babies just crawled to a corner and hid themselves for a while. But if someone sneaked into the Hopkins family and took the babies away…
Then she really didn’t know what to do.
Nanny Faang had never been so anxious. Besides, the thing happened just after she heard the bad news about Lassie from the hospital.
Christina remembered that she had sneaked into the nursery many times and secretly carried the child out to play with them. Indeed, no matter how strict the management was, there would definitely be a chance for others to sneak in
“Search every corner of the house carefully. Don’t miss the back garden and lotus pond. Send a few people with sharp eyes to check the surveillance video, especially the video recorded around the time when the babies disappeared. Also, check the several gates carefully.”
Christina had some experience stealing babies.
“All personnel in Hopkins family are prohibited from leaving especially the nanny and maid in charge of the nursery. Go and interrogate yourself to see if there is anything unusual.”
Nanny Faang nodded repeatedly. “Okay, I’ll go now.”
Nanny Faang immediately turned around to leave, not daring to delay.
“Wait a minute.” Christina stopped her.
“Does grandpa know about this?”.
Nanny Faang’s expression was complicated. “I haven’t told the Senior Mr. Hopkins yet.”
When they found out that the children were missing, the servants at home immediately thought of reporting it to Senior Mr. Hopkins. But today, grievous news came that Miss Lassie had fallen from the rooftop into a vegetative state. Now no one knew what to do, so Nanny Faang rushed to Christina in a panic.
“Don’t tell grandpa. Do your best to search for the children now.” Christina told them so.
The babies of the Hopkins family were missing. It was a big mistake to hide it from Senior Mr. Hopkins, but now even if he knew it, it wouldn’t help.
“I’ll contact Patrick and others to come back to help. Don’t be nervous.”
When Nanny Faang heard that Christina was actually comforting herself in return, her eyes were a little wet. She nodded and immediately left to work without saying anything more.
It would be a lie if Christina said that she was not nervous.
Watching Nanny Faang leave the bedroom, Christina was so anxious that she immediately called Patrick.
(The subscriber you dialed is turned off.) There was only the cold mechanical reply.
Christina held her phone tightly, wishing very much that he had been at home at this moment. If Patrick was at home, she and everyone in the Hopkins family would be much more at ease.
She knew that Patrick was very busy. Sometimes when he attended important meetings, he was not allowed to bring in any communication equipment. Now she could only pray that he would know what had happened at home as soon as possible.
Christina took a deep breath and began to edit a text message. “Ms. Hopkins fell off the rooftop on the 9th floor of the hospital, becoming a vegetable. Now the twins have been missing. The family is looking for them.”
Just as Christina was anxiously thinking about whether she should call the police immediately and who else she could ask for help, her phone rang.
It was from Chandler.
Even if she didn’t have a good relationship with Chandler, he was Patrick’s friend. Maybe he could help.
Christina pressed the answer button. Just as she was about to ask him for some help, Chandler asked coldly.
“On the afternoon when Crystal was pushed downstairs in the hospital and had a miscarriage, you and Lucy happened to appear in the back alley near the hospital. Can you explain why the two things happened so coincidentally?”
Chandler was deeply hurt by Crystal’s miscarriage. He had been watching surveillance videos all night for several days, vowing to find the culprit who killed his child. He didn’t expect that he would see Christina and Lucy in these videos.
“Christina, I’m not suspecting that you hurt Crystal. It’s just that after a few days of investigation, the only suspicious thing we found is that you and Lucy were in a hurry that day. You seemed to be looking for something, and you appeared in the back alley of the hospital within 10 minutes the incident happened.”
Chandler seemed to make this call to question Christina.
Christina was surprised that he suddenly called to question her. Crystal already had a miscarriage. But right now, she was most anxious about where the babies were.
She was dazed by Chandler’s question. “Brianna.” She muttered the name with a confused expression.
At that time, she and Lucy ran all the way to the back alley of the hospital to chase Brianna.
Brianna gave her a weird call, in which she was sobbing.
Ms. Hopkins went to the hospital for no reason and fell off the rooftop.
The twins were gone.
Christina’s mind was in a mess. It seemed that if everything was connected, the truth was about to reveal itself, but there were many things that she could not figure out.
Chandler was even angrier when he heard that there had been no response from Christina for a long time,
“Let me say it again. I’m not suspecting that you have hurt Crystal, but I want you to explain why you happened to be there with Lucy. Christina, are you hiding something from us? We all know who Lucy is. Something big must have happened since you should ask her for help.”
Unable to vent he
“What am I hiding from you? I’ve been telling you that Brianna is very strange. But did you believe me? Did you hear me? You always blame me if something was wrong. I’ve told you that Brianna lied. I’ve told you that Brianna wanted Crystal to miscarry. Now I think she took the twins away!”
Christina was so anxious now.
Crystal was cruelly pushed down the stairs and miscarried, Ms. Hopkins fell off the rooftop. Now the babies were
gone…
Christina’s face turned pale.
Chandler’s call was cut off. He didn’t call back because he was in a daze.
The last sentence that Christina said was, “I think she took the twins away.”
Could it be that the two children of the Hopkins family were missing?
Charles walked over and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly. “It’s been a few nights. Go back and have a good rest. I’ll talk to Christina. I’ll ask her why she happened to be in the back alley of the hospital with Lucy.”
“Let’s go to the Hopkins family now.”
Chandler urged Christina, and immediately took the car keys. He said so as he walked.
“Don’t be so anxious. I know that you became furious about Crystal’s miscarriage. But it’s all over. Now, the most important thing for you is to take care of yourself. If you have stomach bleeding again, I’m afraid you’ll suffer from stomach cancer.”
Charles knew that Chandler and Christina failed to have good communication. He thought Chandler had had a misunderstanding with Christina over the phone just now so Chandler was about to go for Christina to cause her some trouble.
Chandler walked quickly without looking back, “Christina’s twins seem to have been taken away, Patrick is abroad. Let’s go and have a look.”
Charles’s eyes widened. His godsons were gone!
To find the missing babies of the Hopkins family was the top priority. Charles had better driving skills and was more familiar with shortcuts. Both of them felt heavy. Charles threw his cell phone to Chandler, asking him to call Christina.
After all, Charles and Christina had a good relationship. Christina would be more willing to answer the phone from Charles.
“The number you’ve dialed is busy.”
They didn’t know who Christina was talking to on the phone. None of the seven calls that they had made got
through.
“Come on!? Why didn’t you call me when such a big thing happened? Who are you talking to now? Charles cursed as he drove.
