At that, Christine White’s eyes twinkled slightly for a few moments, “Something like that.”
Ives Norton’s grip on his glass of water tightened in vain, “So Baird really is with Molly Bort…”
Christine White pursed her lips and nodded.
Ives Norton thumped his glass of water on the coffee table, his face hard, “How could he do this, I clearly told him to treat you well, he actually …”
“Well, he was counted on in this case.” Christine White forcefully raised a smile, signaling him not to be angry.
Ives Norton’s fire lessened a little, but his face still stank, “Even if it was calculated, it’s still true that he cheated on you, and you don’t care?”
This is the second person who has asked this question.
The first is Hugh Dong.
Christine White cried out, “How could I not care, but what could I do? Can I travel back in time and stop that from happening?”
Ives Norton was dumbfounded by her words, after a long time, he let out a heavy sigh, “What’s your next plan? I know you, since you care about Baird cheating on you, you shouldn’t be able to forgive him so easily.”
Christine White hmmmed, “I’m going to move out of The Lane Family cottage, I promised Grandpa I wouldn’t divorce Baird Lane, but the way things are going, it wouldn’t be right for me to live with him, so maybe it would be good for both of us to separate for a while.”
“That’s fine, is there a place to go?” Ives Norton asked.
Christine White knew he was asking because he wanted to help her arrange a place to go, and while she was grateful, she didn’t want to bother him, so she lied without changing her face, “Yes.”
“That’s good, when are you moving there and do you need my help?” He asked again, not picking up on the fact that she was lying.
Christine White laughed a little, “No need to help, I don’t have much that I can handle on my own.”
“Alright, since you’ve said that, I won’t force myself, but I’ll say it again, if you need any help ask as soon as possible and I’ll try to help.” Ives Norton looked at her with serious eyes.
Christine White’s mind was stunned for a moment, and she subconsciously nodded her head.
Ives Norton looked at her dumbfounded and found only a few moments of cuteness, and couldn’t help but go up and stroke a handful of her hair.
Christine White was startled by his action and hurried to her feet, “You …”
“Sorry!” Ives Norton also reacted to what he had just done, and with a flash of chagrin in his eyes behind his glasses, he hastened to apologize.
Christine White couldn’t be bothered to hold onto it and shook her head slightly, “It’s fine.”
“It’s good that you don’t mind … I really didn’t mean it just now, really …”
“Okay Ives, stop it.” Christine White interrupted him.
Ives Norton’s eyelids dropped, “Okay, I’ll stop.”
He kept his mouth shut.
The lounge became quiet all of a sudden, and the atmosphere was vaguely awkward, making people quite uncomfortable.
But in the end, Ives Norton couldn’t help but open his mouth and break the silence, “By the way! When I went abroad to attend a seminar before, I heard from my assistant nurse that you came to the hospital to look for me a few times, right?”
He changed the subject.
Christine White nodded, “That’s right.”
“So what did you want to see me about?” Ives Norton looked at her.
Christine White pondered for a few seconds and spoke back, “It’s not really a big deal, I just heard someone say that you seem to know who Molly Bort’s sister is, is that true?”
“Who did you hear that from?” Ives Norton’s glasses snapped back up to a glow.
Christine White didn’t hide it from him and answered truthfully, “Hugh Dong.”
“Is he?” Ives Norton frowned.
This man, he’s really a god.
Not only did he know the whole thing about Molly Bort having a sister, he actually knew that he knew exactly who Molly Bort’s sister was.
Beyond that, what the hell does this man know?
“Yes that’s right, it’s him, I approached him earlier to tell me who Molly Bort’s sister really was and he said for me to ask you, so I went to the hospital twice to see you.” Christine White said with a smile.
Ives Norton pushed up his glasses, “What he said is true about Molly Bort’s sister, I do know who it is, but why are you so concerned, it shouldn’t have anything to do with you, should it? ”
Christine White nodded, “Yes, it does have nothing to do with me, the only reason I’m trying to figure it out is because I want to run Baird Lane, but for now it’s better to leave it alone, I don’t even know how I’m going to deal with my relationship with him right now, so what’s the point of talking about helping him.”
“Which means you don’t want to know who Molly Bort’s sister is?” Ives Norton raised an eyebrow.
Christine White hmmmed, “Something like that.”
“It’s better if you don’t want to know, knowing won’t do you any good, it’ll just make you sadder.” Ives Norton’s furrowed brow loosened.
Christine White looked at him in disbelief, “Sad? Why would I be sad?”
“Uh … I just said it off the top of my head, don’t take it personally.” Ives Norton waved his hand with a slightly mixed expression.
Christine White looked at him deeply for a moment and withdrew her gaze, “Really, I thought you meant that I had something to do with The Bort Family.”
“How!” Ives Norton’s eyes flashed slightly.
Christine White picked up the glass of water in front of her and took a sip, “I don’t think so either, if I did have anything to do with The Bort Family, it would just make me sick.”
As the words fell, the sound of a door opening suddenly came from the doorway of the lounge.
Christine White stops sipping her water and looks toward the door, which opens and Baird Lane walks in, followed by Furber.
Baird Lane’s eyes narrowed when he saw that there was more than one person in the lounge, an Ives Norton in addition to Christine White.
“Why are you here?” He questioned in a deep, questioning voice, asking about Ives Norton.
Ives Norton pushed his eyes up and stood up, “I was late, I checked with The Lane Family’s maid to see where you were, the maid said you were in the common room so I came over, who knew when I came over it would be Christine alone.”
Regarding this statement, Baird Lane is clearly not convinced and shifts his gaze to fall on Christine White.
Christine White, with a natural face and not the slightest hint of weakness, locked eyes with him, “He’s telling the truth.”
Baird Lane pursed his thin lips, “You go out first, I have some things I want to say to him.”
Christine White looked at him and then at Ives Norton and picked up her handbag aside and got up, “I see, I’ll be heading back to the cottage then.”
With that, she nodded to Christine White before walking out into the lounge.
About what Baird Lane was going to talk to Ives Norton, she wasn’t interested.
Her top priority now was to hurry back and pack.
Since she had decided to move out and separate from Baird Lane for the time being, she had no intention of dragging her feet.
So when she got back to the cottage, Christine White went straight upstairs and pounded a suitcase down.
Aunt Lucy came back with her, and when she saw that she had changed into a simple outfit and was carrying a suitcase down from upstairs, she couldn’t help but stutter in her heart, “Ma’am, what are you doing?”
Christine White didn’t hide from her the fact that she was ready to move out.
Aunt Lucy heard this and disagreed, “Move out? Where are you going to live?”
Christine White dropped her eyelids to hide the heartiness in her eyes and replied, “I have somewhere to go, so don’t you worry about it.”
“But it’s not safe out there, you’re …”
“Let her go!” Baird Lane’s voice suddenly came out in the direction behind him and coldly interrupted Aunt Lucy’s admonition.
Aunt Lucy looked behind her along with Christine White, Baird Lane was walking step by step towards them with one hand in his pocket, a tight and cold expression on his face that looked as if he was suppressing something.
“Sir, what are you talking about, letting the missus go?” Aunt Lucy looked at him with displeasure.
