He made such a light remark, but it made Molly Bort go as cold as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and her face began to turn white at a rate visible to the naked eye, “Baird … What are you talking about, what Toby Dean?”
“Won’t admit it will you?” Baird Lane’s eyes narrowed dangerously, “Did you think that when I let you Leo Bort out of the country that I wouldn’t send someone to spy on you? I already know everything that’s going on between you and Toby Dean, it’s always been Toby Dean you’ve loved from the beginning, am I right!”
“I …” Molly Bort subconsciously stepped back, but being too distraught caused her legs to have no strength, and after two steps she fell on her butt.
He actually knew!
He actually knows everything!
No wonder he had treated her so coldly when she came back this time.
Baird Lane looked at Molly Bort’s flustered appearance and a cold glint crossed his eyes, “It does seem that I was right that
You never loved me, and when you were with me, you were only trying to borrow The Lane Family to get The Bort Family going, and this time you came back to me sick to use me to find the right bone marrow.”
“I … I …” Molly Bort’s eyes twinkled sheepishly, and not a word of explanation could be uttered.
Baird Lane closed his eyes slightly and when he opened them again, they were cold, “It’s funny that I’m just learning about all this.”
“Baird …”
“Come on, don’t explain anything.” Baird Lane looked down at her coldly, “I don’t mean to get back at you for playing with my feelings either, I just don’t understand why you came back this time to meddle in my marriage and pay lip service to getting back together with me if you’ve always been in love with Toby Dean, what on earth did you have in mind?”
Molly Bort deadpans and doesn’t say a word.
Could she say she just simply didn’t want him around other women?
It was true that she didn’t love him, but she also wouldn’t allow any other woman to be around him, much less for him to fall in love with another woman.
He can only love her and be good to her alone! So Christine White, the one person who threatens her place in his heart, she must eliminate!
Seeing that Molly Bort didn’t say anything, Baird Lane also gradually lost his patience, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t say anything, but now that I know that everything you did was just to use me, there’s no need for me to treat you as I did before, so let’s settle the score again for the intentional idea that you had to kill my child.”
“What?” Molly Bort’s mind went blank, thinking she’d heard wrong.
Killed his kid?
Did he even know that it was her idea to do that?
As it turns out, Molly Bort guessed right.
Baird Lane stated out all the things she had just said to Christine White at the banquet.
Molly Bort blanched the more she listened, “Baird, this is what Christine White told you isn’t it?”
Baird Lane nodded, “Good, I asked her specifically about what happened at your party.”
“So you believe her?”
“Yes, I believe her.”
“How can you believe her!” Molly Bort screamed out of breath, “Baird, she can’t be trusted, she’s lying, I didn’t even say those things to her, she’s lying to you!” Molly Bort was agitated.
Baird Lane looked at her like she was a clown, “Did she lie to me, just pull up the surveillance and get someone who is proficient in lip-synching to find out if you said those words or not.”
Molly Bort was dumbfounded, her whole face ashen, and she couldn’t get excited anymore.
Baird Lane wrapped his arms around her, inwardly utterly disappointed in her, “Now what have you got to say for yourself!”
It never occurred to him that it was she, not Leo Bort, who was the real culprit who had Christine White’s bone marrow forcibly aspirated and aborted the child in her womb.
At best, Leo Bort is an executioner.
It’s a shame that he was going to let Leo Bort off the hook before in order to worry about whether or not she’d do something stupid, but now that I think about it, he’s so stupid!
“Baird…” Molly Bort’s eyes went bright and fuzzy several times before she finally suddenly climbed up and knelt in front of Baird Lane, crying with a contrite look on her face, “I’m sorry Baird, I know I was wrong, I shouldn’t have done it, but I had no choice, I wanted to stay alive, I had to do the next best thing.”
“You want to live so you have to let others die?” Baird Lane growled lowly at her words, his face instantly green and black.
Molly Bort was dumbfounded by the yelling, her body cringed and she cried much less, “I … I didn’t want Christine White to die, she was only having her bone marrow taken out, she couldn’t die at all …”
Baird Lane gasped and laughed, “What about my kids?”
Molly Bort bowed her head sheepishly, “That … It was an accident, who got her pregnant!”
“You mean she shouldn’t be pregnant, right?” Baird Lane kicked the coffee table over.
Molly Bort was so frightened that she immediately rose from the floor, cowering her shoulders and not daring to speak.
She knew that whatever she said at the moment would only make him angrier, so she might as well muddle through as a mute.
“You just said you want to live right?” Baird Lane asked suddenly.
Molly Bort’s heart stuttered, “Baird, what do you want?”
Baird Lane took a breath and said in a grim voice, “Molly Bort, remember, your life was traded for Christine White’s and my children’s lives, I’m not going to do anything to you, I’m going to let you live your life, but I’m going to put everything you’ve done on Leo Bort, and I’m going to make him pay double the price.”
Molly Bort shook her head in horror, “No Baird you can’t do this!”
“There’s nothing wrong with it, it’s all of your own making, you can’t blame anyone else, you can only blame why your mind is so vicious.” Speaking here, the cell phone in Baird Lane’s pocket suddenly rang.
He frowned, pulling his phone out to look at it and putting it back in, “It’s time for the auction, I’ve put the words in here for you, so take care of yourself.”
With that, he stopped looking at him and walked around her toward the door to the lounge.
Once, in his boring career as an heir, her appearance was like a ray of sunshine, making him fall in love with her uncontrollably, in his heart, she was such a kind and pure girl, he even wanted to give her everything good, but she finally left him alone.
Spare him the thought of hating her, but she had been using him all along, and doing such heinous things to stay alive.
Maybe Christine White was right, he never really recognized her!
Exiting the lounge, Baird Lane saw Christine White crouched in the hallway, staring at her cell phone in disbelief, and walked over to her and asked, “What are you looking at?”
“Reading a novel.” Christine White looked up at him, “You done talking?”
“Uh-huh.” Baird Lane nods.
Christine White gets to her feet, but stands shakily.
Baird Lane held her in a hug, “What’s wrong?”
“Legs are numb from squatting.” She said with some embarrassment.
Baird Lane raised an eyebrow, “How long have you been squatting?”
“I’ve been squatting as long as you’ve been talking in there.” Christine White returned.
Baird Lane pursed his lips, “Nonsense, why don’t you go find a seat in the ballroom?”
“I’m waiting for you.” Christine White looked him in the eye.
Baird Lane was stunned at first, then his heart warmed, “Don’t wait like that again, find a place to sit if you have to, let’s go, the auction is starting.”
“Good.” Christine White got out of his arms and pulled her hand into his.
On the way to the auction hall, her lips moved, wanting to speak several times.
Baird Lane sighs, “Say whatever you want.”
“There’s really not much I want to say, it’s just …”
“Just wondering what I talked to her about?” Baird Lane picked up on her words.
