Christine White pursed her lips.
To be honest, she wasn’t sure if she wanted to say hello to Baird Lane.
By status, she was supposed to go over there.
But she couldn’t get past that in her mind.
Just as Christine White grabs the corner of her coat and wrestles with it, Baird Lane suddenly sees them and walks toward them, coming to a stop in front of them.
“President Lane,” Hugh Dong greeted Baird Lane warmly.
Baird Lane nodded in response before turning his attention to Christine White, “Time to come back with me?”
Christine White didn’t want to talk to him and didn’t respond to him.
Baird Lane frowned and this time his tone became a little more emphatic, “Do as you’re told and come back with me.”
“Chief Dong, you can give me a ride.” Christine White directly requested to Hugh Dong.
Hugh Dong, of course, begged for it, and immediately nodded his head, “Alright then President Lane, I’ll take care of seeing Christine off, you go back on your own.”
With that, he headed in the direction of his car.
Christine White naturally follows him, only to be yanked by Baird Lane’s wrist not two steps behind.
“Christine White!” said Baird Lane, blushing hard, “I’m in front of you, and you follow another man?”
Christine White shook his hand away, “What do you mean follow another man? I’m just asking Chief Dong to take me back.”
“Let him take you back? Christine White, have you forgotten who is the husband?” Baird Lane’s face was so grim it was dripping.
Christine White bit her lower lip and stubbornly said, “You soon won’t be.”
“You …”
“Okay, okay.” Hugh Dong claps his hands together, interrupting Baird Lane’s anger, “President Lane, you take Christine back, but I hope you’d better not get angry with Christine, because the very things you did to Christine mean that you have no right to be angry at her at all. ”
“The things I did?” Baird Lane narrowed his eyes and stared at Christine White, “What did you tell him?”
“Hey President Lane,” Hugh Dong pulled Christine White behind himself, “Did you just question the prisoner? Don’t say that Christine didn’t say anything to me, even if she did, so what? That’s just her telling me about the unhappiness in her heart, furthermore, the things you President Lane have done can’t stand up to scrutiny at all.”
“You checked me out?” Christine White looked up at Hugh Dong’s back in dismay.
Hugh Dong quirked his head and winked at her, “I was just curious about what happened to you so I looked into it a little and I’m sorry I didn’t tell you.”
“It’s fine.” Christine White waved her hand carelessly.
Those things, in and of themselves, aren’t anything worth hiding, so check it out.
Looking at Christine White being so pleasant to Hugh Dong, a nameless fire rose in Baird Lane’s heart for no apparent reason, “Even if I did something, that has nothing to do with you Hugh Dong.”
“So let me ask President Lane, is Christine related to The Bort Family?” Hugh Dong wrapped his arms around himself and looked at Baird Lane with a leathery smile.
Baird Lane’s fists tightened, “What the hell are you trying to say?”
“I’m just saying, since I’m okay with you, President Lane, and you don’t want me to get involved in your business, President Lane, then Christine is okay with The Bort Family, so why should Christine have to give her bone marrow and her own child for Molly Bort ?”
Speaking of this, Hugh Dong sneered, “And you, the husband, don’t do her any justice at all, President Lane you have really opened my eyes.”
When Christine White heard his words, the aggression in her heart surged up once again, and the tip of her nose and her eyes soured.
Yeah, even Hugh Dong knows the truth, but it’s the man who is her husband who has turned the tables on her!
“President Lane, why don’t you say anything?” Hugh Dong hooked the corners of his mouth, seemingly smiling but not laughing as he looked at the gloomy Baird Lane, “Did I poke your sore spot? That’s right, I’ve torn President Lane’s true colors apart, after all, there are not many husbands like President Lane, so I naturally have to talk about it.”
“You shut up!” Baird Lane’s voice was cold as ice.
Hugh Dong grunted, “I’ll shut up when you tell me to shut up, how humiliating would that be for me, besides President Lane are you trying to hide something by telling me to shut up? And President Lane, do you think you really deserve to be a husband?”
Baird Lane’s pupils trembled slightly as Hugh Dong’s words reminded him of what Aunt Lucy had said before he arrived.
Aunt Lucy said he wasn’t a proper husband, and now this Dong guy says the same thing.
Is he really that unqualified?
Baird Lane looks at Christine White with a mixed expression, trying to see her reaction.
But Christine White just looked away and didn’t meet his eyes, clearly not wanting to pay him any attention.
Baird Lane’s heart was suddenly a little upset and a little astringent, a feeling that was, well, bad.
“President Lane, you also don’t mind me speaking harshly, as a husband, he is supposed to care for and protect his wife, not to leave his wife aside and instead care for and love other women, all of these President Lane you just happen to have taken up, that’s why I said you don’t deserve it, in that case … ”
Hugh Dong dragged out his tone, his eyes rolled a few times, then he took Christine White’s shoulder, “You divorce Christine, how about if you don’t love and care for her, I’ll love and care for her?”
Christine White’s eyes widen and she’s just about to say something when out of the corner of her eye she suddenly sees Baird Lane charging forward with his fists raised.
Bang!
Hugh Dong has been knocked to the ground.
Christine White was all confused and stayed there for a moment, forgetting to react.
Baird Lane walks up to Hugh Dong and looks down on him from above, his eyes are horrible, “This punch is just a warning, next time you let me know that you have a mind that you shouldn’t have, don’t blame me for making a move on Dong’s.”
After saying that, he pulled Christine White away with a dark and cold face.
Christine White would have broken away from him to check if Hugh Dong was hurt.
But Baird Lane pinched her wrist so tightly that she couldn’t break away, and she could only take one step and turn back three times, looking at Hugh Dong with a worried face.
Hugh Dong covered the corner of his mouth and stood up from the ground, he could see her worry and wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth before smiling at her, “Christine I’m fine, you go back, if he bullies you you call me, I’ll go over to pick you up anytime.”
“You don’t have that chance!” Baird Lane threw out coldly before pulling open the car door, shoving Christine White inside and starting the car to leave.
On the road, Christine White had been worrying about Hugh Dong’s injury, so naturally she didn’t have the heart to talk.
Baird Lane noticed her absentmindedness, and although he was furious in his heart, he suppressed his anger thinking of Hugh Dong’s last words.
“Why don’t you ask me how I know where you are?” Baird Lane was the first to speak, breaking the frozen atmosphere in the car.
Christine White didn’t look at him and blandly returned, “There’s nothing to ask, my whereabouts are just a matter of your word.”
“Since you won’t ask, I’ll ask you.” Baird Lane turns the steering wheel.
Christine White simply closed her eyes, “What do you want to ask?”
“I told you before to stay away from other men, especially Hugh Dong, why didn’t you listen and get into his car and have dinner with him?” Baird Lane questioned with a somewhat displeased look.
Christine White laughed softly mockingly, “No reason, I got a ride when I got a ride, I got a free meal, it’s as simple as that, and as for Mr. Lane you said not to let me have contact with other men, I listened to you before, but did you? Did you do it?”
“What do you mean?” Baird Lane frowned.
Christine White scrunched her neck, feeling a bit of a chill on her body, “Not much of a point, just that Mr. Lane you’re kind of double standard, you tell me not to get in touch with other men, but you yourself are in love with Molly Bort, did I say anything about any of this?”
