The bathroom door was unlocked, and he opened it with a slight twist.
Christine White was sprawled out on the sink, her upper body bowed, puking her guts out right into the sink, puking so hard that her face was bloodless, her eyes were red and watery inside, and she looked pathetic.
“What’s wrong with you?” Baird Lane came up behind her and peered into the sink.
It was only then that I realized the sink was clean and clear of any vomit.
So she’s totally dry heaving here.
“I’m fine.” Christine White asked weakly as she unscrewed the faucet and caught a handful of water to rinse her mouth.
Baird Lane pursed his lips, “Nothing would throw up like that?”
“It’s normal.” Christine White smiled at him, still pale, “It happens for the first few months of pregnancy, Aunt Lucy says it’s a pregnancy reaction.”
“Pregnancy reaction?” Baird Lane whispered the thought, then turned and exited the bathroom.
Christine White watched him walk away without saying a word, her heart sank, and the smile on her face could no longer be maintained and slowly disappeared, and she even still just had an urge to cry.
He’s leaving?
Coming in and leaving without a word of concern is just too sad …..
Christine White let out a bitter laugh as she looked at her bad looking self in the mirror.
Also, she just threw up like that, he did not show a disgusted expression has been considered good, just did not care about her, but it is not a big deal, in the past he did not care about her, she is still not over.
Despite this consolation, Christine White knew in her heart that she was saddened and aggrieved by Baird Lane’s departure.
She didn’t know what was wrong with her.
It’s as if since she got pregnant, she felt like she suddenly became pretentious and petulant all of a sudden.
It is clear that even if she is pregnant, Baird Lane will not take special care of her, and she often tells herself to be strong and not to care about this, but on the other hand she still has hope, hoping that he will look at the sake of her pregnancy and treat her better and care more about her, a contradictory mentality that she has never had before.
Thinking about this, Christine White laughed to herself in the mirror, “Christine White, Christine White, you’re getting greedy when you’re pregnant.”
What’s not greed if you’re pregnant and you desire Baird Lane to be kind and caring to her?
Christine White rubbed her face to compose herself, pulled a tissue to wipe the water from the corner of her mouth, and stepped out of the bathroom.
When she returned to her room, it was silent and empty except for her.
She looked around a little confused, “Baird?”
No response.
Christine White walked out onto the balcony again, and after confirming that Baird Lane wasn’t on the balcony either, it got even stranger.
Where did he go?
Is it possible to get a call from Molly Bort and leave again?
As he was thinking this, there was a sudden movement at the door of the room.
Christine White turns to look as the door to the room opens and Baird Lane walks in with a glass of brown water.
The sight of him was a huge relief, and her lifted heart fell back into place.
So he didn’t leave.
“What are you standing there for?” Baird Lane’s face sank when he saw Christine White standing at the mouth of the balcony.
The weather is turning cooler now.
She was actually standing there in her pajamas blowing off steam!
“I was looking for you.” Christine White closed the floor-to-ceiling windows of the balcony and smiled back.
Baird Lane set the mug in his hand on the coffee table, “What did you want to see me about?”
“You weren’t in the room, I thought you’d gone away again.” Christine White didn’t hide anything, and directly said what was on her mind.
“Where can I go this late.” Baird Lane returned her remark blandly, then pointed to the cup on the coffee table, “Drink this.”
“What’s this?” Christine White walked over curiously.
Without answering her, Baird Lane picked up a book on the couch and opened it.
Christine White saw him like this, her heart was a little lost, and she had to keep her mouth shut and not ask any more questions.
She bent down and picked up the cup he had just pointed to, first putting it under her nose and sniffing it, and after asking no questions about the flavor, she tried a sip of the brown water inside, and then her eyes lit up, “Sour plum juice? Did you get it especially for me?”
“I went downstairs to get some water, and it just so happened that Aunt Lucy was there, so I casually asked her how a pregnancy reversal should be suppressed, and she gave me this to send up to you.” Baird Lane returned with a slight twinkle in his eyes.
“Is that so?” Christine White looked at him with some skepticism, and pointed to the kettle on the coffee table, “Isn’t there water in the room, so why do you have to go downstairs to pour it?”
Hearing this, Baird Lane’s hand holding the book tightened violently.
The arc of his movement, though small, was just enough to be captured by Christine White.
She laughed, “Baird, you’re lying aren’t you, you didn’t even go downstairs to pour the water, you went specifically to ask Aunt Lucy for advice didn’t you?”
“No, you’re overthinking it.” Baird Lane snapped the book shut and headed for the king-sized bed.
Christine White didn’t follow, holding her sour plum juice still standing there, the smile on her face growing wider, “Baird, thank you.”
She misunderstood him, he had just suddenly left the bathroom, not because he was too lazy to care about her, on the contrary, he had gone to make sour plum juice specifically for her because he cared about her.
She even more did not expect, he did not want to explicitly say, but also had to mouth hard to say it is by the way, this kind of dishonest look and then matched with his cold face, but also give people a kind of contrast cute.
“Come on, hurry up and finish your drink and go to bed, it’s late.” Baird Lane lifted the covers and lay back on the bed, his tone somewhat impatient.
Christine White spat out her tongue, “Got it, coming right up.”
Could she categorize the way he looked now as him being arrogant?
Thinking about this, Christine White couldn’t help but cover her lips and snicker as she discovered another little known side of him.
The next day, when Christine White woke up, Baird Lane was gone again.
She wasn’t surprised; after all, he often left early.
“Ma’am.” Christine White was greeted by an unfamiliar servant as she descended the stairs.
Christine White was yawning and her head was still confused when she saw this servant, “And you are?”
“I’m filling in for Sister Song’s class, my last name is Liu.” The maid replied with a smile.
Christine White then remembered that Aunt Lucy had taken the day off yesterday.
“Hello.” Christine White returned the smile.
The maid inquired, “Does ma’am eat breakfast now?”
“Uh-huh.” Christine White responded.
She did get a little hungry.
“Then ma’am please, breakfast is ready, it’s made to your taste ma’am.” The maid made a gesture of invitation.
Christine White followed her to the restaurant.
Presumably Aunt Lucy told this maid all about her tastes when she left.
Christine White ate this maid’s breakfast, which felt no different from eating Aunt Lucy’s cooking, so naturally she adapted quickly.
After breakfast, Christine White went into the living room to watch TV while she waited for the English tutor Baird Lane had arranged.
But after waiting for about two hours, the English teacher did not wait, but waited for a strange phone call.
She didn’t want to answer it, but when she saw that the call was coming from the same city and had been ringing for so long, she answered it anyway, “Hello there, it’s me Christine White.”
“Are you Christine White?” came a somewhat menacing male voice on the other end of the line.
Christine White flinched, “I am, may I ask if you are …”
“You don’t care who we are, you just need to know that your brother is in my hands, if you don’t want your brother to lose a hand, come to the Golden Assembly House to save him, remember, don’t call the police, or I’ll directly take your brother’s life!” The person on the other end of the phone finished speaking and hung up the phone.
Christine White’s entire body was dumbfounded, her mind went blank, and it took a long time for her to react to the fact that her brother had been captured.
“How did this happen?” She was anxious to cry.
