Molly Bort didn’t expect Christine White to make a sudden move, so she was hit square in the face and fell straight to the ground.
This turn of events caused the entire banquet to fall silent, and everyone looked this way.
But Christine White was so completely in a rage at the moment that she couldn’t care less about the stares of the others, and just looked indignantly at Molly Bort on the floor, who was covering her face, “You’re so evil!”
She’d always thought that Leo Bort had done it all.
So while she hated Molly Bort too, she wasn’t trying to make Molly Bort pay for anything.
But now she realized how foolish she had been.
“I’m vicious?” Molly Bort stood up, “Yes, I admit I’m vicious, but you forced me into this! I gave you a chance to get out of Baird, you didn’t, so you can’t blame anyone else!”
“You mean this is all still my own fault?” Christine White pointed to her nose and looked at her incredulously.
Molly Bort stuck her neck out, “Yes, it’s your fault!”
“You are unbelievable!” Christine White shook her head and took two steps back, “You’re only doing this to me because I’m married to Baird Lane right?”
Molly Bort rubbed her tingling face and smiled coldly, “Yeah, it’s because of you that Baird doesn’t want me, it’s because of you that I’ve ended up in this situation today, I told you I’m going to snatch Baird back from you, and getting rid of your child is just the first step, there’ll be more tricks waiting for you in the future.”
“You’re crazy!” Christine White picked up her wine glass and threw it on her face, “You are simply crazy, what do you mean because I Baird Lane don’t want you, obviously it was you who made a fool of yourself back then and left him behind, that’s why you guys broke up, I got married to him and it was also after you guys broke up, who are you to say such words as you want to snatch him back! ”
“Just because I love Baird,” Molly Bort said rightfully as she wiped the liquor from her face.
Christine White gasped and laughed, “Love? Do you really love him?”
Molly Bort looked at her with a stony expression and a tentative look, “What do you mean?”
“You know in your heart that you just enjoy how good he is to you, you just don’t want another woman around him because you’re possessive, you just want him to love you with all his heart and you don’t love him at all, you’re just treating him as a spare tire, am I right?” Christine White said coldly.
Molly Bort blushed slightly as waves of shock rippled through her mind.
How does this woman know she doesn’t love Baird Lane and is just using him as a backup?
Seeing Molly Bort’s silent and slightly vain expression, Christine White knew she had hit the nail on the head and was sure that what Baird Lane said was indeed true.
Molly Bort doesn’t love him, loves, really, someone else.
At the thought, Christine White’s eyes rolled and she slowly spat out two words, “Toby Dean!”
“You!” Molly Bort snapped her head up, her face horrified, “What did you just say?”
“Toby Dean!” repeated Christine White.
Molly Bort looked tense and her breath caught, “How do you know? Who told you?”
“Guess.” Christine White deliberately teased her.
Molly Bort was so flustered by now, how could she withstand Christine White’s behavior of selling out like this, instead she was still irritated and rushed over to Christine White and grabbed her by the shoulders and shook her violently, “Tell me, who told you that?”
The fact that this woman knows about Toby Dean means that she also knows everything about her and Toby Dean.
This is definitely not a good thing for her.
She had to ask who had told this woman.
Christine White was shaken by Molly Bort with a wave of dizziness and nausea in her stomach.
Resisting the urge to throw up, she made a break for Molly Bort’s hand.
But because the strength used to break free was too great, the moment she broke free, she herself lost her center of gravity, and her feet were unsteady as her body fell backward.
She was expected to fall to the ground as Molly Bort had just done, yet to her surprise, at the critical moment, a strong arm suddenly reached out and caught her steadily and took her into its arms.
“Baird?” shouted Christine White subconsciously as she stared blankly at the man who had caught her.
Baird Lane glanced at her and nodded slightly in response before turning his gaze across the room to Molly Bort with a furrowed brow.
Molly Bort’s sanity snapped back, and the expression on her face changed from the ferocity of a moment ago to one of resignation, “Baird …”
Baird Lane ignored her aggravation and only opened his mouth expressionlessly to cross-examine, “What were you doing just now?”
Christine White’s lips twitched without answering.
Instead, Molly Bort gave her a cryptic sidelong glance and lowered her head to explain in a whisper, “Just now we …”
“Alright!” Baird Lane interrupted her, “I don’t care what you guys were doing, this is Elder Chan’s charity gala, have you guys thought about what will happen if you make trouble here, if someone hadn’t gone to notify me, are you guys still planning to fight here?”
At that, Christine White was bashful and a flash of apology rose in her heart.
She didn’t mean to cause trouble, much less make a scene on this occasion.
It was really because she was so irritated by Molly Bort that she couldn’t help it.
Thinking about it, Christine White took a deep breath and got out of Baird Lane’s arms, “Baird, can you take me to see Elder Chan? I want to apologize to Elder Chen in person.”
Baird Lane couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow when he saw how aware she was, “Yes.”
“Thanks.” Christine White sighed in relief.
Molly Bort saw the situation and was anxious, “Baird, you’d better not bring Miss White, we just made a mess, Chen Lao definitely won’t be happy to see Miss White, in case Chen Lao also relents to your … anger.”
“That’s not for you to worry about.” Baird Lane glanced at her coldly, “Go wait for me in the lounge, I’ll have something to ask you later.”
After saying that, he dragged Christine White to meet Elder Chen.
Watching the backs of the two as they left, Molly Bort stomped her feet in anger and jealousy.
He actually did take Christine White.
Then wouldn’t what she had just done be for nothing.
That old man Chen, like that old man The Lane Family, didn’t treat her well, surely he would see what was going on, what to do?
Christine White had no idea what Molly Bort was worried about at the moment, and she was now apprehensive.
After all, one is disrespecting one’s host family when one makes a scene on their occasion.
I also wondered if the host family would accept his apology.
“Elder Chen.” Baird Lane pushed open the door to a suite and called out politely to the door.
Chen Lao and his wife were drinking tea inside, when they heard this sound, they both put down their teacups and looked at the door.
The difference is that Chan looked a little less than stellar when he saw Christine White and Baird Lane.
Instead, Mrs. Chan had a kind smile on her face, which eased Christine White’s uneasiness a bit.
“Elder Chen, I brought my wife to apologize to you.” Baird Lane pushed Christine White in front of Elder Chen.
Christine White bowed knowingly, “I’m sorry Elder Chen, I didn’t mean to cause trouble just now, I’m sorry …”
“Hmph!” Elder Chen coldly grunted and did not speak or accept her apology.
Christine White, with a small blush, peeks over at Baird Lane and asks what he should do now.
Baird Lane sighed and was about to help her out when she saw Mrs. Chan cover her lips and laugh twice before pulling Christine White to her feet.
“Girl, this is the first time I’ve seen you, right?” Mrs. Chen sized up Christine White and inquired with a smile.
Christine White nodded curtly, “Yes.”
“Don’t be nervous.” Mrs. Chen patted the back of her hand, “You’re really just like what Old Lu said, so simple and easy to bully.”
“Eh?” Christine White was a little confused.
Baird Lane narrowed his eyes, “What do you mean by that, Mrs. Chan?”
