“Am I wrong?” Hugh Dong sarcastically spread his hands, “You just treat Christine as an accessory, so you don’t think about her feelings, you subconsciously think that she should follow the route that you plan for her, you think you are doing her good, but you never thought about whether she wants this kind of goodness from you or not, and I guess she doesn’t. ”
Hearing this, Baird Lane’s heart fluttered.
He couldn’t deny that he did decide on his plan to protect Christine White in this way without asking her what she wanted.
Is he, uh, wrong?
Hugh Dong could see that Baird Lane had some self-doubt, his narrow eyes narrowed for a moment and then passed away, “Well President Lane, I’m afraid Christine has gone far away after I’ve told you so much, I should go and find her, after all, I’m the one who brought her here, so naturally I have to return her in one piece. So President Lane, I’ll leave you to it.”
He turned his back on Baird Lane and waved as he sashayed away.
Outside the door of the auction hall, Hugh Dong found Christine White waiting there and jogged past, “Been waiting long?”
Christine White gave him a look, “What did you tell him all about?”
“You mean President Lane, huh?” Hugh Dong asked rhetorically with a smile.
Christine White pursed her little lips, “Who else do you think I’m asking.”
“Oh, just kidding with you.” Hugh Dong waved his hand in a dangling manner, “I, ah, didn’t say anything to him, just letting him know how low his emotional intelligence really is, in addition, I also mentioned him, let him apologize to you, as for whether he can figure it out or not, and whether or not he’ll look for you, I don’t know.”
Christine White sniffed, her eyes dropping, “I suppose not.”
“Oh?” Hugh Dong raised an eyebrow, “Why?”
Christine White shook her head, “I know his character, too high and mighty to keep his head down.”
“If that’s the case, then won’t you never be able to wait for President Lane to apologize to you, and won’t you never be able to make up?” Hugh Dong’s eyes rolled slightly.
Christine White didn’t see the difference in him and gave a bitter laugh as she looked down, “I don’t know.”
“Tsk, this tangled relationship of yours, according to me, why don’t you just get divorced?” Hugh Dong said as if he didn’t mean it.
Christine White immediately voiced her veto, “No, I promised Grandpa I couldn’t get a divorce.”
“Why can’t we leave? Lane senior is such a shrewd person, how would he make such a confusing request, isn’t he deliberately tying you up?” Hugh Dong asked tentatively.
Christine White was so preoccupied with the sadness of her old man’s death that she didn’t realize he was being deliberately condescending and rubbed her cheeks tiredly as she returned, “I’m sorry, I can’t talk about it. ”
“So mysterious?” Hugh Dong’s eyes flashed with essence.
Christine White sighed, “It’s not a mystery, it’s about something very important, that’s why I can’t talk about it.”
She wasn’t going to tell anyone about the shares, including Baird Lane, and she wouldn’t tell Baird Lane until he actually appeared to be in the situation that Grandpa said he was in, before she took the shares out for him to make a comeback.
If he hadn’t been in that situation, she would have kept the shares in the deepest recesses of her heart and been the most secretive shareholder in The Lane Family Group until her child with him was born, when she would have told him about the shares and transferred them to the child.
It’s just that with their relationship now, I’m afraid the baby will have to be put off again for who knows when.
At the thought, Christine White’s eyes darkened as she touched up her belly, bitterness on her face.
Hugh Dong watched her movements and stroked his chin, “Since you don’t want to talk about it, forget it, but the reason you promised Master Lane that you couldn’t get a divorce, does President Lane know about it?”
Christine White shook her head lightly, “I didn’t tell him.”
“So.” Hugh Dong laughed out, with a hint of gloating in his tone, “Even President Lane doesn’t know that I’m balanced.”
“What’s that got to do with you?” Christine White looked at him blankly.
Hugh Dong wiped the corner of his mouth meaningfully, “It’s okay, I’m just happy to see that President Lane isn’t as good as he wants to be, well, we should get back.”
Christine White hmmm’d and followed him towards the exit, “So you didn’t come all this way for nothing today?”
Hugh Dong eyes narrowed a bit, “No ah, at least saw President Lane’s joke, it’s not a waste of time, turn around and tell my father that the company didn’t film it on the line.”
Hearing him mention his father, Christine White frowned in confusion, “Father?”
“Yeah, what’s wrong?” Hugh Dong looked at her sideways.
Christine White laughed a little, “It’s okay, I just thought the title was kind of rusty.”
People, in general, don’t call out to their fathers in any way.
“It’s normal, I’m not on good terms with him.” Hugh Dong said lightly.
Christine White flabbergasted for a moment, then quickly remembered what Bess Camp had once said and hesitantly spoke, “That … I heard people say that you and Chairman Dong, are not biological father and son, right?”
Hugh Dong paused slightly in his steps, “Who did you hear that from?”
“Uh, Bess Camp,” Christine White answered truthfully.
Hugh Dong raised an eyebrow, “You know Bess Camp?”
“Well, casual acquaintance.” Christine White replied as she ruffled her short hair around her ears, while her small face was slightly red.
She couldn’t forget the awkward scene where she was calling out to Bess Camp’s brother.
Luckily Bess Camp didn’t hear it at the time.
Christine White’s blush fell in Hugh Dong’s eyes, causing him to instantly make some associations, and the color of his eyes were much colder, “By chance? Looking at you, it seems like you guys are quite close?”
“Uh, it’s okay, mostly because things are a little complicated between him and me.” Christine White said with some embarrassment as she messed with her neck.
Hugh Dong pursed his lips, “Complicated?”
“Well, I look a lot like his sister, so he was okay with me. “Christine White replied.
It would have been nothing that couldn’t have been said.
But Hugh Dong heard her answer, the whole person flabbergasted, did not expect her real relationship with Bess Camp is like this, he thought that she also moved to Bess Camp, after all, the way she blushed, really make people misunderstand.
“That what …” Hugh Dong touched the tip of his nose in slight embarrassment, “So he would actually tell you this, yes, my father and I, indeed, are not biological fathers and sons, I am adopted, a someone else don’t want illegitimate children!”
When he said this, his tone was noticeably aggravated, and there was a hint of gritted hatred.
Christine White was surprised that his true identity could be that, and reacted a little too quickly for a moment.
What he didn’t expect, however, was to be misunderstood by Hugh Dong.
Hugh Dong saw her delay in speaking and thought that she disliked his status, the expression on his face instantly became chilly, “What? Think my status is lowly?”
“Eh?” Christine White was just coming back to her senses when she heard him say this and was a bit confused, “Lowly? I didn’t think you were lowly.”
“Is that not what you just looked like?” Hugh Dong’s eyes were full of coldness.
Christine White finally realized that he was misunderstanding, and cried and laughed a little, “I was just surprised, and didn’t think that your identity … It’s you who thought too much.”
“Really?” Hugh Dong was still a bit unconvinced and narrowed his eyes skeptically.
Christine White bristled, “Believe it or not, does it matter to me what you are, does it matter to me?”
Hugh Dong didn’t answer anymore, after a few seconds, he put away the thorns all over his body and suddenly smiled, “It’s also true that my identity doesn’t matter to you, so I’ll trust you for now.”
“And tentatively.” The corner of Christine White’s mouth twitched.
Hugh Dong looked at her, “Why don’t you ask whose bastard I really am?”
