Christine White subconsciously took a step back, “You’re awake?”
Baird Lane turned his head slightly to look at her, his voice husky and hard, “It’s you?”
“Is it me who’s disappointed?” Christine White dropped her eyes and laughed softly.
Baird Lane wrinkled his nose, “What do you mean?”
“Nothing, are you thirsty?” Christine White asked.
Baird Lane body moved again, this time, his face instantly changed, already pale face, this time white even more, forehead sweat came out.
Seeing this, Christine White’s heart followed and she hurriedly held his shoulders down, “Don’t move, you’ve got a wound on your back!”
Baird Lane didn’t expect Christine White to suddenly care about him, and was momentarily stunned, staring at her all the time, making her look a little uncomfortable.
“What are you looking at?” Christine White asked, frowning.
Baird Lane’s eyes flashed and he pulled his gaze back, “Nothing, can you untie your hands now?”
Christine White only then reacted to his own hand is still holding down his shoulder, small face red, hurriedly removed his hand, and then turned his back, a little stiff, “You’d better not move, or the wound cracked, you deal with it by yourself, grandpa, but he said, he will not let you go to the hospital, at that time, I will see what you do, I will not help you. ”
Hearing this, Baird Lane didn’t know why, but he felt a bit amused, especially looking at her somewhat squirming figure, he could even still imagine her expression at this moment.
Unable to help it, Baird Lane felt like he was in a much better mood for the moment, “You’re concerned about me, huh?”
Christine White’s little face flustered, but luckily her back was to him and she wasn’t worried about him seeing it.
“No.” She returned with a stiff upper lip.
The corners of Baird Lane’s mouth quirked slightly, “Well, since there isn’t one, there isn’t.”
Christine White pursed her lips and didn’t answer.
Baird Lane also put his smile back on and asked, “How long have I been back?”
“It’s been an hour.” Christine White returned faintly.
Baird Lane hmmm’d and asked, “What made you suddenly think of going to the old mansion?”
Christine White’s eyes flickered, “Nothing, just going to talk to Grandpa about something.”
“Say what happened recently?”
“No, I didn’t tell Grandpa a single thing that happened recently, he found out on his own.”
Baird Lane was a little surprised when he heard that, “So what did you tell Grandpa?”
“It’s none of your business, anyway, get some rest, I’ll go downstairs and bring your food up later.” Christine White finished speaking, picked up the dirty clothes he changed out of and went downstairs.
Baird Lane looked in the direction she had left and pursed his thin lips thoughtfully.
She must be hiding something from him!
Although he didn’t say that he knew her 100%, he knew quite a bit, in these three years, she never took the initiative to set foot in the old mansion, even if she looked for the old man for something, she just called him.
But now that she suddenly went to the old mansion in person to talk to the old master about things, there must be some secret that he didn’t know about.
At the thought, Baird Lane rose from the pain, fished for his bedside cell phone, and called his old man.
However the call was answered but not picked up, and undeterred, he called again, and this time the phone was actually turned off.
By this point, Baird Lane already knew in his heart that this was the old man deliberately not answering his phone call.
At the same time, he knew that the old man was a little disappointed in him.
Baird Lane pinched his brow wearily and just gave up trying to contact the old man and called Leo Bort instead.
Leo Bort quickly answered the phone, “Ah Baird, what can I do for you?”
“Uncle, what’s Molly’s condition now?” Baird Lane inquired in a cold voice.
Leo Bort’s eyes lit up when he heard him mention his daughter, and he responded with unbelievable enthusiasm, “Molly, ah, she’s still in good spirits and recovering well, without any half-rejection, I believe she’ll be able to get out of bed and walk around in a short while, and then I’ll have her come over to thank Ms. White.”
“There’s no need for thanks, you know better than anyone in your heart where that bone marrow came from, and you think she’ll welcome you when you show up in front of her?” Baird Lane sneered sarcastically.
Leo Bort choked on an awkward smile, “Baird you have a point.”
Baird Lane grunted, “Since Molly’s getting better, you should hurry up and get her out of the country.”
“Leave the country?” Leo Bort froze, “Why do you want Molly to go abroad for good reason? She’s not even healed yet.”
“Grandpa already knows what you’ve done, and you think he’ll let Molly off the hook if she doesn’t leave the country?” Baird Lane said as he narrowed his eyes.
Leo Bort’s expression instantly tightened, and imo panic emerged in his eyes, “Master Lane knows?”
“Grandpa would have known sooner or later, you should have been able to think of this moment when you did it.”
Leo Bort swallowed, “I did think of it, but I didn’t think the old man would know so soon, O Baird, who told the old man? Was it Miss White?”
“No, it was the old man himself who sensed it, but even if Christine White had told grandpa, so what? You did this to her, and you still won’t allow her to tell?” Baird Lane said with an unhappy expression.
Leo Bort hastily shook his head, “No, no, I don’t mean that, I just … Hey, I don’t know what to say, Baird, you tell uncle now, what does the old man plan to do?”
“Grandpa wants The Bort Family to cease to exist!” Baird Lane didn’t hide it from him, and simply repeated what the old man had said at the time.
Leo Bort soul are scared flying, a face white bloodless, holding the phone’s hand is trembling, “What? The old man he … He …”
“You know you’re scared now?” A flash of disgust crossed Baird Lane’s eyes.
If you’re scared now, why didn’t you think about this outcome when you did it?
“Baird, Baird,” Leo Bort shouted Baird Lane’s name in a panic, “Baird, you’ve got to save uncle, uncle did all this to save Molly’s life.”
Baird Lane did not take a position.
His silence made Leo Bort panic even more, “Baird? did you hear me?”
“Heard that.” Baird Lane returned with a grimace.
Leo Bort was a little angry in his heart, but on his face he was in a begging posture, “Baird, since you heard it, you must help me ah, don’t ever let the old man deal with The Bort Family , you also know that The Bort Family was founded by me, I can’t let The Bort Family will be in the hands of the destruction of the hands, so Baird, you must save me, save Molly!”
“There’s nothing I can do to save you, it’s Grandpa’s orders, but if you leave the country with your family and never come back, I’m sure Grandpa won’t hold on to you.” Baird Lane said with a deep look in his eyes.
The old man is trying to bring down The Bort Family, he doesn’t like Leo Bort though either.
But he knows that if The Bort Family really is overthrown, then Molly must not survive it either.
So all he can do is get The Bort Family to leave the country with their family, so that he can account for it on the old man’s side.
“Leave the country and never come back?” Leo Bort froze, it took him a long time to get over it, “Baird, how can that be, our roots in The Bort Family are all in the country.”
“You can stay in the country if you want, then you can wait for The Bort Family to be history from here on out.” Baird Lane snorted coldly and was about to hang up.
As if he knew what he was going to do, Leo Bort shouted to stop, “Wait Baird, don’t hang up yet.”
“Have you thought this through?” Baird Lane asked him.
