My billionaire husband spoils me too much
Chapter 448

"Peter, wake up. I'm asking you, where is Derek?"

Christina lowered her voice and wanted to shook him up, but he did not even move.

At this moment, Mrs. Shepherd, who had been out for dinner, suddenly returned. When she walkedinto the ward, she saw Christina standing beside the bed.

"He's not awake yet..." She muttered in a low voice.

Christina took a step back and calmed down, but she couldn't hide the disappointment and deepworry on her face.

Originally, she was not worried. Derek was autistic and didn't like to talk, he was elusive and didn'tlike to report to others, so he was often nowhere to be found. However, over the years, he didn't gethurt easily, and very few people could hurt him

But the old coin said he was dead.

Christina got nervous again. Her eyes could not help but turn red. She could not believe thosevoices...

Mrs. Shepherd noticed the change of her emotion and looked at Peter on the bed. It suddenlydawned on her that Christina seemed to be worried about someone else.

"I really hope Peter could wake up soon. Christina, you'd better go back to the Hopkins family andhave a good sleep. If Peter is awake, I'll call you immediately.”

Seeing her haggard face, Mrs. Shepherd tried to persuade her to go back to rest.

"You don't have to wait here. If you wanted to ask him something, I can help you ask it..." Mrs.Shepherd guessed that she had something urgent to ask Peter.

Christina suddenly held her hand and begged, "If Peter wakes up, Mrs. Shepherd, could you ask himthat if he was with Derek at that time and since he has escaped successfully, how about Derek?Where is him?"

She didn't hide anything on purpose. In her mind, there was nothing dirty between them to hide.Mrs. Shepherd was surprised. The people Christina worried about turned out to be the son of theFisher family.

Derek was an illegitimate child of the Fisher family. Insiders always liked to say that he was anautistic fool, but Derek and Charles were friends, and it seemed that Derek and Patrick were alsogood friends. Mrs. Shepherd knew more or less about their relationships. Moreover, Christina andDerek seemed to have been good friends since they were kids.

"Okay, go back and rest. Staying up late is not good for your health..."

Christina thought that Nanny Faang might have told Mrs. Shepherd things like she was in a badstate of mind or had hallucinations. She lowered her head and walked out of the ward. "I'm notsick..." She said to herself.

Mrs. Shepherd patted her kindly on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I think I still have to go withyou until you get in the car before I can rest assured. My four sons were all educated well by me,but it seems you are the naughtist one.”

Christina smiled awkwardly.

They got off the elevator together and walked out of the hospital lobby. As Christina walkedtowards the parking lot, she did not forget to remind her again, "As soon as he wakes up, call meimmediately...”

"I know, I know.” Mrs. Shepherd assured her and nagged, "I didn't realize you were so stubborn.”Christina was amused by her. Mrs. Shepherd was very humorous, she was almost thirty, but Mrs.Shepherd seemed to treated all the younger generation as children who were not growing up.

She was really tired and sleepy. She nodded at Mrs. Shepherd and said, "I'll go to the parking lotmyself. You can go to the restaurant and look for Mr. Shepherd and the others..."

Mrs. Shepherd saw that she had calmed down and was going back, then agreed, "Be careful on theroad."

Christina was thinking about going back to sleep for a few hours and setting an alarm clock. Shewas about to open the door with the car key in her hand, someone bumped into her while sheturned around

She was astonished. "Charles..."

As soon as she spoke, she saw Charles's angry face, which was a rare expression for him.

"What's wrong with you?" She stepped forward and asked him.

Charles seemed to be furious. He pushed her away as if he was venting his anger on her. "Christina,don't interfere in this thing no matter what!"

She was a little confused. There was a noise behind her. She turned around and saw that the backdoor of the sapphire blue Lamborghini was opened in a hurry. A man in a white shirt and blacktrousers was rudely pushed out...

Then Patrick and Chandler also came out from the same car. They carried a man together, or morespecifically, dragged a man, who seemingly very weak. The man lowered his head and his messyshort hair covered half of his face. But seeing his fair and beautiful face...

Christina could recognize him at a glance.

Derek.

It was Derek.

At this moment, her heart beat faster. She rushed over immediately. "What are you doing?" Shescolded angrily, "Did you hit him?"

Derek's face was pale, but there were obvious bruises from fighting on his beautiful and flawlessface, and the corners of his mouth were torn and bleeding. Several buttons were torn off on hiswhite shirt, which revealed the bruises from heavy objects on his chest. And even his black trouserswere stained with dirt...

"Christina, I told you to stay out of this!" Charles seemed to have known that she would over-reacted and immediately grabbed her from behind.

But Christina pushed him and shouted at Patrick in front of her, "What are you doing? Let him go..."Patrick and Chandler did not turn around and continued to carry Derek to the hospital building"Why was he injured? Did you hit him?" Christina glared at Charles and grabbed his collar toquestion him.

"Have he ever do anything bad to you? Why did you guys hit him together? Tell me why!"

Charles looked sullen as well "Christina, I've already told you that Derek is not a good guy.” He waseven angrier when seeing Christina's anxious and concerned face.

"I don't care what the outsiders said about him, but you can't...”

"Derek is most likely the one who caused Peter's disappearance. He has been hiding in the dark andwe finally found him. I want him to come to the hospital to confront Peter now. I won't wronglyaccuse him, but if he did it, we won't let him go!"

Christina's mind went blank for a second. She looked at Charles's angry face in front of her and thenturned to watch Derek...

Derek was dragged by them step by step. He lowered his head and had no strength to resist.

"You can't do this to him..."

Christina looked at them and said angrily. "I don't give a shit. I won't let you touch him!"

She shook off Charles, ran over, and rushed into the same elevator as Patrick and Chandler, whowere caught off guard. She almost threw herself into Derek's arms and shook him anxiously. "Eric,how are you?"

Her eyes were red with anxiety. "Answer me. Talk to me, please!"

"Eric, I told you to talk!" She was still as domineering as before.

Derek seemed exhausted. His eyeballs rolled slowly with his eyes tightly closed, as if he was tootired open his eyes.

It was like his instinctive reaction to call out in a low, low voice, "Bae..."

Christina didn't like others to call her by this nickname, but it seemed that no one else could call herby that, except him.

Patrick looked at them with a mixed feeling...
