Ives Norton’s pressure on her wound gave way, “Regret not listening to me or something?”
“Of course it was your counsel, counseling me to leave Baird Lane, I certainly didn’t take your words to heart, and worrying about thinking about it makes me really regret it.” Christine White tilted her head into the crack of her pillow, her voice choked with emotion.
A flash of heartache rose in Ives Norton’s eyes, “So you want to leave him, now?”
Because of her crying, Christine White’s body trembled slightly, “Yes, I want to leave him, I don’t know what to face him with in the future, and I don’t have the means to forgive him, and I’ve never been able to figure out how his heart can be so soft on Molly Bort, but why he has to be so hard on me and on our children, just because ours can’t get his love?”
Ives Norton’s mouth opened, wanting to comfort her, he didn’t know how to do so, and could only advise, “Don’t cry, crying too much isn’t good for your injury recovery.”
Christine White sniffled, “I don’t want to cry, but I can’t help it when I think of my poor baby, do you think if I had listened to you, my baby would have been saved?”
“This … Not necessarily.” Ives Norton mused back.
This thing, it was totally The Bort Family, father and daughter, not Baird Lane at all.
Baird Lane is just taking the fall for The Bort Family, but Christine White doesn’t know that, and is convinced that Baird Lane did it.
So even if she had listened to him and left Baird Lane in the first place, The Bort Family would still not have let her go, and would still have caught her forcing her to take her bone marrow.
Christine White was stunned for a moment when she heard Ives Norton’s words, then she quickly reacted and smiled sadly, “And yes, it’s not necessarily true… Baird Lane cares so much about Molly Bort… even if I leave, he’ll still find me, and then he’ll ask me to donate bone marrow to Molly Bort… I’m still really whimsical.”
“In fact, this matter, it is not Baird who did … it.” Ives Norton hesitated, but decided to tell the truth.
However Christine White couldn’t listen at all, she covered her ears and sneered, “Who is it if not him, I heard it all at the time, that’s his voice, he teamed up with someone known as the boss to do it, I’m his wife ah, and I have his child in my belly, how can he be so cruel!”
It was Baird Lane’s sinful voice at the time that got to her most.
How ironic that the child in her womb was a sinful child in his opinion!
Since he didn’t want this child in the first place, why did he agree to give her this child? Giving her hope, but then hardening her despair, she really hated it!
Thinking of this, Christine White gripped the hand towel tightly, with self-deprecation written in her eyes, “I had thought that even if I couldn’t get his heart right now, as long as I stayed by his side, he would always be able to see me, but now I realize that I was wrong, some people, his heart is born to be cold and hard, made of stone, and it simply can’t be melted or warmed! ”
It’s funny that it’s so obvious that she’s just now realizing it.
It shows how naive and stupid she used to be.
Ives Norton was a bit fuming when he saw Christine White looking like this, “So what are you going to do after that? You said you want to leave Baird, have you really thought it through?”
“Well, I’ve thought it through, he and I were meant to be two worlds, I never should have come into his life, I was the one who was so stupid before, I kept fooling myself into thinking that if I worked hard to become good enough, I could stand by his side, and now I realize just how wrong I was.” Christine White said miserably, laughing as tears slid down the corners of her eyes once more.
Ives Norton didn’t think much of it and pulled a tissue and just wiped her tears, “No, you’re not wrong, everyone has the right to choose their happiness and for you, Baird Lane was your happiness, that’s why you chose him, but that’s not why you’re wrong.”
“But now it seems to me that that was my fault, my fault for overestimating myself, my fault for not fantasizing about something that wasn’t mine, but I’ve come to my senses now, and left Baird Lane to go back to the world that was meant for me, and from now on, I’m going back to the bridge and back to the road with him.” Christine White said with determination.
Ives Norton was shocked by her determination.
How much she cared for Baird Lane, he’d seen it all over the last two months.
He’d even been envious and jealous of Baird Lane, to be loved wholeheartedly by a woman.
But now she wants to leave Baird Lane so badly, so it’s clear that Baird Lane has really hurt her this time.
“Now that you’ve made up your mind, of course I’m supporting you, but what are you going to do about Lane’s old man’s side?” Ives Norton asked as he looked at Christine White.
Christine White’s eyes darkened a bit, “On Grandpa’s side, I’ll talk to him.”
“Okay then, when are you going to divorce Baird?” Ives Norton asked again.
Christine White touched up her belly through the covers, “I can’t go anywhere in this condition, I’ll talk to him when I can get out of bed, but until then, can you keep my secret?”
“Good.” Ives Norton agreed readily.
Christine White smiled weakly at him, “Thank you.”
“You don’t have to thank me, I also want you to leave Baird, after all, Baird he … Never mind, let’s not talk about it, get some rest and I’ll see you later.” Ives Norton pulled the covers over her and gently left the hospital room.
Instead of resting after he left, Christine White braced herself with difficulty, fished for her bedside cell phone, and made a call out.
The call was quickly answered, and Mick White’s impatient voice came sashaying through the phone, “Christine White, what are you calling me for, I’m at work?”
“Let me ask you, were you kidnapped yesterday?” Christine White asked with an expressionless face.
Mick White was confused, “Kidnapped? Christine White you’re sick, you’re the one who’s been kidnapped!”
“I know.” Christine White hung up.
She wasn’t even remotely surprised by Mick White’s answer, because she’d had it in the back of her mind for a long time.
The call she answered at the villa yesterday, asking her to rescue Mick White, was simply a cover, a cover to trick her out of the villa, because the only way she could be kidnapped was if she left the villa.
The funny thing is that she was so desperate to save the day that she foolishly believed it and didn’t even think to call Mick White for confirmation.
“Baird Lane ah Baird Lane, you even used my brother in order to successfully kidnap me, so despicable!” Christine White deadpanned the cell phone in her hand as if she wanted to crush it.
Outside the door, Baird Lane gently closed the door, which had just opened a crack, and murmured in a low voice, “Stupid woman, if I really wanted your bone marrow, I should have just dragged you to the hospital for the operation, why go through all this trouble?”
He had just seen Ives Norton come out, and was going to go in and see her, but he had just opened the door a crack when he heard her say this, and then he never had the courage to go in again.
If you go in, I’m afraid she’ll kick you out too.
It was better to leave her alone, perhaps she still didn’t want to see him now.
“Why don’t you go in?” Ives Norton asked playfully when he saw Baird Lane back out.
Baird Lane swept him off his face, “You’re idle?”
“It’s okay, today was supposed to be my day off, you guys called me and I came over to work late.” Ives Norton said lazily, sticking his hand in his white coat.
Baird Lane sneered, “Since it’s your day off, you’re going back.”
“That won’t do, I’ve got to examine her in two hours, she’s had a miscarriage and had her bone marrow taken out, it’s a dangerous few days, besides Baird, I’d suggest that you’d be better off hiring a psychiatrist for her.” Ives Norton’s expression got serious.
Baird Lane pursed his lips, “A psychiatrist?”
