The person outside the door didn’t answer and still kept knocking.
Christine White got a bit of a headache from the knocking on the door, and after knocking her head, she casually threw on a shirt and got out of bed to go out and open the door.
As soon as the door opened, before she could come to ask who the visitor was, she was held tightly in her arms.
“Ma’am, I’ve missed you.” Aunt Lucy said excitedly.
Christine White was confused and hurriedly pushed her away, looking at her incredulously, “Song ….. . aunt Lucy?”
“It’s me ma’am.” Aunt Lucy smiled and nodded.
Christine White swallowed, still surprised in her mind, “What are you doing here?”
“Mister brought me here.” Aunt Lucy said, pointing to the back.
Christine White saw her move and a bad feeling rose in her heart, “Baird Lane is here too?”
“Right.” Aunt Lucy nodded.
Christine White immediately crossed to her and looked behind her.
Sure enough, not far away stood a tall figure, looking faintly this way.
Christine White was stunned in place, her heart couldn’t tell what kind of mood she was in, there was surprise, but it was more of a shock.
“You …” Christine White opened her mouth to say something, but didn’t know how.
Baird Lane came this way on two long legs and walked until he reached her before stopping, “Surprised?”
Christine White nodded softly, “How did you find this place?”
She didn’t tell anyone she was back in the country, as she recalled.
Nope …
Seems like she talked to Debby York! Did he ask Debby York?
Baird Lane looked down slightly at Christine White, whose eyes shifted uncertainly, and about guessed what she was thinking at the moment, and lightly opened his thin lips and said, “I asked Mick White.”
Christine White was slightly startled, “Mick ?”
Baird Lane nodded.
“He … And how did he know I was back here?” Christine White was a little puzzled.
Baird Lane didn’t hide anything from her, and gave a general account of what was going on.
A dawning realization crossed Christine White’s eyes, “So that’s it, so what’s the reason for your sudden visit?”
She looked at him.
“Such a Mrs. …”
“Aunt Lucy!” said Baird Lane, stopping Aunt Lucy.
Aunt Lucy immediately said nothing.
Baird Lane spoke up then, “I came here to take you back.”
“Take me back?” Christine White frowned.
Baird Lane nodded, “That’s right.”
“I’m not going back!” Christine White refused outright.
Baird Lane looked at her, “Why don’t you go back?”
“Haven’t I told you many times already? I’m getting a divorce, and if that’s the case, why would I go back, and you tell me where I’m going back to? Is The Lane Family my home?” Christine White asked him.
Baird Lane thought nothing of it and blurted out, “The Lane Family is your home!”
Christine White’s expression froze, “What did you say?”
“I said, The Lane Family is your home, now do you hear me?” Baird Lane repeated.
“Hear me.” Christine White nodded subconsciously.
The corner of Baird Lane’s mouth hooked slightly, “Now that you’ve heard me, come back with me.”
“No way!” Christine White refused once more.
This time it was Baird Lane’s turn to frown, “Christine White, what do you want?”
Christine White got a little upset, “What do I want? Isn’t it you, Mr. Lane, who wants something? You’re the one who disliked me, you’re the one who treated me with indifference, and you’re the one who wants me to go back, so tell me, what do you take me for? Why should I do anything you say?”
“Just because I’m your husband!” Baird Lane stared at her, word for word.
Christine White sneered, “Husband? I still say, have you ever done your duty as a husband? Do you know what a husband is?”
Baird Lane pursed his lips, “I know, I won’t be like that again.”
“Later?” Christine White grunted, “There is no later, and I don’t want to have a later with you, I’m afraid I’ll still not be able to keep my baby later, so Mr. Lane you go.”
When she finished, she made a move to close the door.
Baird Lane saw this and put out a hand against the door panel.
His strength was so great that Christine White could not resist him at all, closing the door and shutting it for half a day, and instantly became a bit angry, “Mr. Lane, please let go!”
“Come back with me!” Baird Lane repeated.
Christine White took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart, “I told you, I am not going back, I just want a divorce, divorce don’t you understand?”
“But I also told you that I’m not getting a divorce, so Christine White, you have to come with me!” Baird Lane stared at her intently.
The two were at a standstill, and the air froze a bit.
Aunt Lucy couldn’t help but stand out as she watched with an immense headache, “Ma’am, sir, will you guys stop it for a moment?”
“Was I the one who wanted to make a scene? It’s obvious he came over here somehow and told me to go back with him, and I said I wasn’t going.” Christine White looked away and sulked.
Baird Lane grimaced and said nothing.
Aunt Lucy cried and laughed, “There’s no rush to get back, it’s okay to talk about it later, ma’am, can you let us in? We were in a hurry last night, we didn’t sleep a wink, and we’re a bit tired now.”
“Up all night?” Christine White froze.
Aunt Lucy nodded, “Yeah, right now me and mister are both a little tired.”
Hearing this, Christine White subconsciously looked towards Baird Lane’s face, and saw that there was a faint fatigue on his cool face, and a layer of darkness tinting the underside of his eyelids.
With such heavy dark circles under her eyes, it really looks like she hasn’t slept all night, just like Aunt Lucy said.
Thinking about this, Christine White was a little angry inside.
Does he even know what his body looks like now?
Drinking before he’s healed from that severe whiplash, and now not resting all night, even if he’s physically strong, he can’t make it!
“Mrs. …” Seeing Christine White fuming, Aunt Lucy called out to her gently.
Christine White’s eyes flickered back, “You guys came over here and didn’t make any pre-arrangements for a place to stay?”
Baird Lane spoke with a cold face, “You’re my wife and I need to arrange other accommodations for my visit?”
Christine White ignored him.
If he had said that before, she would have been happy.
Because she felt that he truly considered her as his wife, and only then would he say such domineering words of swearing sovereignty.
But now, all she felt was ridiculous, if he really thought of her as his wife, how did she end up in this situation?
“I’m sorry Mr. Lane, I can’t accommodate a big Buddha like you under my family’s temple, not to mention that we’re still getting divorced and it’s no longer appropriate for us to live together, so you’d better go and ask the folks if there’s any extra room there.” Christine White was ruthless in her efforts to drive people away.
Baird Lane how also did not expect that they have personally come over, but also to be driven by her, the heart can not help but also some uncomfortable, was about to open his mouth, behind the sudden ringing of a high voice, “Christine girl, these two are …”
Christine White’s expression changed slightly when she saw the visitor, finally settling into a smile, “Grandpa White, they’re my …”
“I’m her husband.” Baird Lane cut her off and addressed the village elder.
Seeing this, Aunt Lucy also hurriedly introduced herself, “I’m Mr. and Mrs.’s housekeeper.”
“You guys …” Christine White froze.
Aunt Lucy was fine with it, she didn’t think Baird Lane would actually admit to anyone that he was her husband.
Didn’t he hate letting people know about their relationship?
So what does he mean now?
“Oh? Husband Steward?” The Mayor looked at the two men in surprise, eventually fixing all his eyes on Baird Lane.
He was first stunned by Baird Lane’s appearance, and then by the aura and vaguely revealed aura of Baird Lane’s body.
He had never seen such a handsome man in all his years of life, and the man’s demeanor was still extraordinary, with his eye for people, this man was not an ordinary person ah!
“Christine girl, is this really your husband?” The village chief looked at Christine White skeptically.
