Christine White stretches and explains, “It’s so she can come and fight Molly Bort for the inheritance of The Bort Family and …”
“Stop!” Aunt Lucy made a stopping motion, “Ma’am, I know what you mean, snipe right?”
Christine White but smiles.
Aunt Lucy rolled her eyes, “It won’t work ma’am, not to mention if people are lying to you or not, even if they aren’t, Molly Bort has such a sister, but they’re real sisters, do they really fight over each other instead of loving each other?”
Christine White somewhat disagreed with this statement, “If I were the daughter of Leo Bort’s ex-wife and knew that this sister’s mother had killed my mother, I wouldn’t be in love with her, I’d just grab back everything that was mine.”
“That said, ma’am, you wouldn’t be Leo Bort’s daughter.” Aunt Lucy smiled and stroked her head.
Christine White grunted, “I don’t want to be his daughter either.”
“So yeah ma’am, wash up and don’t get any bad ideas.” Aunt Lucy finished crying and laughing and went back to the kitchen to work.
But Christine White isn’t dead in the water.
She wanted revenge, desperately, and while she still wanted to make Molly Bort pay before when Leo Bort was in prison, the thought hadn’t been as strong as it was now.
Now that Leo Bort had been rescued, it meant that her previous revenge was in vain, and there was even the possibility of Leo Bort’s retaliation, in that case, there was no need for her to let Molly Bort go.
What’s more, it’s not only her father-daughter hatred with The Bort Family, this hatred has also spread to the three families, The Bort Family is on the side of The Lane Family’s enemies, and it’s clear that they also want to be at loggerheads with The Lane Family, so Baird Lane won’t show any mercy to The Bort Family anymore. Baird Lane won’t show any mercy to The Bort Family anymore, so she wants to do something for Baird Lane.
“Hugh Dong …” Christine White whispered the name.
Hugh Dong must know what’s at stake since he dared to say Molly Bort had a sister.
Looks like we’ll have to find a chance to meet him and ask him about it.
Thinking about this, Christine White drank all the water from the quilt in one gulp and got up to go upstairs.
Baird Lane continued to come back at night, returning with a frown on his face and a tired look on his face.
Christine White took the briefcase from him, “Tired?”
Baird Lane pinched the bridge of his nose and his voice was very raspy, “There’s a mole in the company.”
“What?” Christine White exclaimed, “A mole?”
Baird Lane hmmmed softly, “How could there be a mole, is the company okay?”
“It’s fine for now, except that the mole stole some of the company’s secrets, and the person who got those secrets afterward might use them to fight The Lane Family,” Baird Lane said in a deep voice, the bottom of his deep eyes filled with ice.
Christine White didn’t expect this to happen and couldn’t help but get anxious, “So has the mole been found?”
“Ran away, but I already know who it was.” Baird Lane closed his eyes wearily.
Christine White looked at him, then walked behind him and squeezed his shoulders.
Baird Lane craned his head to look at her with some surprise.
She looked down slightly and met his gaze, “What’s wrong?”
The corner of Baird Lane’s mouth quirked lightly, “It’s okay, a little heavier.”
“Is that appropriate?” Christine White asked with some added intensity.
Baird Lane closed his eyes up comfortably, “Nice.”
Christine White smiled, reassuringly bold with that intensity, “That mole, he was paid off by the old man, wasn’t he?”
Baird Lane replied with thin lips, “Maybe, after he ran away and my men didn’t locate him, there’s no second possibility except that he’s been hidden.”
“What about the stolen secrets?” Christine White was a little worried.
Baird Lane raised one hand to prop his forehead, “I’ve asked Gates and the others to produce as many new company secrets as they can to weed out the ones that were stolen, I just hope that whoever got those secrets will be a little late in making a move on The Lane Family, but even if they aren’t, it doesn’t matter, that little bit of secrecy won’t be able to take down The Lane Family.”
“But how could it hurt The Lane Family some, right?” Christine White guessed.
Baird Lane pursed his lips and said no more.
Christine White sighed darkly as she saw this and knew she was right, “Baird …”
“Well, that’s my business, don’t worry about it, and from what Gates said, you saw Molly Bort with Toby Dean when you got back?” Baird Lane changed the subject, obviously not wanting to talk much about the company.
Christine White looked at the top of his dark head and couldn’t do anything about it, so she had to go along with it, “See, there’s a fight on the side of the road, I’m a little surprised, doesn’t she love Toby Dean so much, what’s the fight about.”
“Toby Dean is getting engaged.” Baird Lane quipped.
Christine White paused in all her squeezing of his shoulders, “It’s not with Molly Bort, is it?”
“Engage her and she’ll argue?” Baird Lane sneered.
Christine White choked and thought about it for a moment, “And with whom, exactly?”
She was curious.
Baird Lane opened his eyes, “A well known model. ”
“Modeling ah … Molly Bort she, then, would have been upset, wouldn’t she?” Christine White’s lips pursed at the thought.
Molly Bort How possessive that woman was, she’d learned the hard way.
Even if they didn’t love Baird Lane, they wouldn’t let Baird Lane have another woman around, let alone Toby Dean.
“Who knows, whether she’s willing or not is none of my business, and this time Toby Dean’s not in C-City for her, it’s for a fashion show.” Baird Lane waved his hand, signaling Christine White not to press further.
Christine White let go of the release and walked around the couch to sit next to him, “Fashion show, isn’t he a jewelry designer.”
“The fashion show was a high fashion evening gown show and needed to be outfitted with jewelry in the same theme, and he was the designer responsible for the show’s jewelry.” Baird Lane explains.
Christine White squinted at him, “How do you know that Toby Dean’s whereabouts so well?”
“Don’t you like costume design, spied on Molly Bort and learned more about it in passing, the fashion show happens to be in three days, want to go see it?” Baird Lane fished aside his briefcase and waved two door tickets from it at her.
Christine White saw these two tickets and couldn’t take her eyes off of them any longer.
The obsessive look on her face made Baird Lane frown slightly, something not right in his mind.
It’s just two tickets. Why the frenzied look?
She claimed to love him, but she hadn’t seen her look at him with those eyes!
At that thought, Baird Lane blanched and suddenly felt that the decision to let Gates buy these two was wrong.
He was a little tempted to tear up both tickets.
“Yes!” Christine White, unaware of what was going on in Baird Lane’s mind, lost even her reserve after coming back from her excitement and very boldly snatched the tickets from him, “Baird, thank you.”
She’d thought about going to a fashion show sometime before.
But expensive tickets and a thinning wallet dissuaded her.
Unexpectedly, he had actually realized this wish for her now, and she was really too happy.
“Thank you?” Baird Lane’s eyes trailed off, “This is one of the top fashion extravaganzas and a thank you is all it takes?”
Christine White’s smile slowly solidified as she carefully turned her gaze from the tickets to him, “So … what do you want me to be afraid of?”
Baird Lane pointed to his cheek.
Christine White understood what he meant and was relieved instead.
Turns out it was just a kiss, she thought he was going to excuse himself to have that with her again.
It seemed that he should have been concerned about the injuries she had on her body, and that was why he only let her kiss his face.
With that in mind, Christine White took a deep breath, pouted slightly and moved over to give Baird Lane a kiss on his perfect face.
After kissing her, she immediately retracted again and asked, “Is that okay?”
