It was then, in the parking lot of the nursing home, that Molly Bort’s harsh words before she left were for her to experience betrayal from those around her.
So now Debby York isn’t betraying her?
Thinking about it, Christine White’s breathing became a little more rapid, and she stared at Debby York’s cell phone, itching to dive in and give Molly Bort two slaps in the face.
“So I’m your tool to get back at Christine White.” Debby York laughed out loud in self-deprecation, her laugh filled with sadness, “So you were lying about saving me and letting our family settle abroad?”
“Or what?” Molly Bort ruffled her wig and responded languidly, “I don’t have the skills to get you out of C-City, where The Lane Family is in control, and say you’re stupid and believe it, dumbass!”
When she finished, she hung up the phone without mercy.
Debby York was quiet for two seconds before suddenly grimacing and slamming her cell phone hard against the wall.
With a snap, the cell phone was shattered into pieces, rotting and finished on the spot.
This turn of events took Christine White by surprise.
She hastened to look toward Debby York, only to see Debby York crouched down on the floor, again curling herself into a ball and burying her head in the hollow of her knees as she had done earlier in bed, bawling her eyes out.
She knew why Debby York was crying, but didn’t know how to comfort it, nor did she want to.
After all, it was Debby York’s own choice to get to this point; she sympathizes, but that doesn’t mean she forgives.
So why should she even bother to comfort if she wasn’t even going to forgive.
“Debby York, now you know what you did, how wrong it is, right, you not only betrayed our friendship, but also almost harmed a human life, and even more still, your uncle and aunt dragged their sick bodies to have a country they can’t return to, and have a home they can’t go back to, such a result, are you satisfied with it?” Christine White looked down at Debby York without expression and said coldly.
Debby York stiffened for a split second and didn’t answer, but cried louder.
Christine White sighed and shook her head as she headed for the door.
After excepting the suite she looked at Baird Lane, “Baird, I know you’d love to get back at Debby York, but let’s forget it for today, she knows the truth and is emotionally devastated at the moment, and you showing up out of the blue might make her do something stupid, so come back tomorrow, and I won’t stop you from doing whatever you want to do tomorrow. ”
Baird Lane met Christine White’s eyes deeply for several seconds before withdrawing his gaze, “I hope that’s not an excuse for you to help her escape.”
“How come, I’m not the kind of person who can’t distinguish between right and wrong, when you do something wrong, you deserve to be punished, and I can’t let grandpa down, if you don’t feel at ease with me, you can send your own people over to keep this place under guard.” Christine White pursed her small lips and said with some unhappiness.
He actually thinks that she wants to give Debby York time to escape.
“No, let’s go.” Baird Lane turned toward the elevator entrance.
Christine White watched his back rather grudgingly.
What does he mean by that?
Did you believe her or not?
Unable to figure it out, Christine White didn’t have to, and after greeting the two bodyguards, trotted after them towards Baird Lane.
Back at the villa, it was already afternoon.
Baird Lane went upstairs to change his clothes before taking the call he was given and going out again.
Watching him so busy made her more than a little sad.
Because she can’t do anything to help.
“Ma’am.” Aunt Lucy came over with a glass of milk.
Christine White collected herself and raised a smirk at her, “What’s wrong?”
“How is His Lordship doing?” Aunt Lucy asked as she put the milk down.
Christine White shook her head slightly as she thought back to the old man’s frail body and pale face.
Aunt Lucy sighed, “God damn The Bort Family people.”
“Okay Aunt Lucy, stop it.” Christine White patted the back of her hand, “Grandpa will be fine.”
“Let’s hope so, I thought the lord had an organ cleansing operation.” Aunt Lucy worried.
Christine White lowered her eyelids, “When was that surgery?”
“It seems like the day after tomorrow.” Aunt Lucy replied thoughtfully.
Christine White rubbed her hair, “It’s a bit of a rush.”
“What can you do if you don’t rush it, that sodium nitrite stuff, it has to be cleaned off sooner rather than later, you can’t keep it, and it’s for his lordship’s own good.” Aunt Lucy said.
Christine White tugged at the corner of her mouth, “I know, I’m just worried that Grandpa won’t be able to handle the surgery right away when his body hasn’t recovered much.”
Old people, once their bodies can’t cope, the consequences will be very serious.
“It can’t be helped if …”
Before the words finished, a cell phone ringtone suddenly interrupted Aunt Lucy’s words.
Christine White smiled apologetically and hurriedly put down the milk in her hand and took her phone out of her pocket.
The incoming call was an unfamiliar phone number, but it was a local number.
She was puzzled for a few seconds Hu, but chose to answer, “Hello, this is Christine White.”
“Hello Ms. White, I’m from the oneworld hotel on my side.” The person on the other end of the phone introduced himself.
Christine White sniffed and straightened her back, “It’s the one called Debby York, is something wrong?”
The hotel side has been watching Debby York for a night as well, and never called her during that time.
It was hard not to wonder if something had happened to Debby York when she called now.
“Yes.” The person on the other end of the line replied, “That Ms. Debby York just called the police and is now being taken away from the station, before she left she asked me to tell you not to worry, that she was turning herself in,”
“What? She turned herself in?” Christine White rose from the couch in surprise.
Aunt Lucy looked at her curiously, “Mistress, the one who poisoned the Master?”
Christine White nodded in reply, then listened intently to the person on the other end of the line, “That’s right, she said she did something wrong and should take responsibility for her actions.”
“I know, thank you.” Christine White forced a smile.
The call ended and she put the phone down, sighing and exhaling, “She’s actually trying to open up.”
“It’s a good thing, too, that she turned herself in, at least it’s better than falling into the hands of Mr.” Aunt Lucy said.
Christine White sighed, “Yeah, if it had fallen into Baird’s hands, it would have taken the skin off her bones if she hadn’t died, but now that she’s gone to jail, what are her parents going to do?”
“That’s for her to think about.” Aunt Lucy shrugged her shoulders.
Christine White rubbed her brow, “I’ll talk to Baird about it, see what he thinks about Debby York turning himself in.”
With that, she picked up her cell phone again and dialed Baird Lane’s number.
Baird Lane was still on his way to the office when he got her call.
He slowed down his driving and put his Bluetooth headset on, “What’s up?”
“Debby York turned herself in.” Christine White returned.
Baird Lane frowned, “When?”
“Just now, I was informed by the hotel, so I called specifically to tell you, while Night wanted to ask you what you thought.” Christine White bit her lip.
Baird Lane turned the steering wheel with an expressionless face, “What’s my idea?”
“It’s revenge… She’s turned herself in now, and jail time awaits her… Are you still going to get back at her?” Christine White asked.
Baird Lane sneered, “You think I’m going to let her off the hook that easy just because she turned herself in?”
Christine White spat out her tongue, and mentally said it was true.
She knew it wouldn’t be that simple.
“So what are you going to do?” Christine White asked again.
Baird Lane narrowed his phoenix eyes dangerously, “I’ll have someone treat her right in jail, so Christine White, you better not plead for her.”
Christine White beamed, “I didn’t say anything about pleading for her, I was just wondering what you would do.”
“That’s fine.” Baird Lane pressed the button on his headset, snuffed out the call, and then removed the headset and threw it on the passenger side while turning the car around and changing course, diverting it in the direction of the police station.
Christine White doesn’t know that Baird Lane went to the police station, and she’s still upset that Baird Lane hung up the phone so abruptly because she still has some things to say.
“Ma’am, what did sir say?” Aunt Lucy asked looking at Christine White.
