Hugh Dong’s heart floated with great uneasiness, “My father …”
“Yes, it was your current father Owen Dong who did it, only at that time The Lane Family didn’t know that it was Owen Dong who did it, they only knew that it was The Lane Family’s enemy, so it was not until now that we are sure that it was Owen Dong who moved, and for the sake of the so-called revenge, he even went so far as to pull on the the whole airplane, how ironic!” The corner of Christine White’s mouth pulled out a cold arc.
Hugh Dong’s body trembled, seemingly struck by this matter, his mouth opened, half unable to speak.
Christine White put him like this, rubbed her cheeks, and softened her tone a bit, “I’m telling you this because I want you to know what kind of devil the person you’re following is, he’s harmed your parents, he’s harmed you, he’s harmed a lot of innocent people, such an unforgivable person, do you really still intend to help him?”
She looked at him with an unmistakable seriousness.
Facing this sharp look from her, Hugh Dong inwardly chickened out for the first time, wriggling his lips and finally only saying, “You let me calm down and calm down …”
“Good.” Christine White agreed cheerfully.
She knew that her words had had a great effect on him.
It’s the most normal reaction for him to be like this right now.
It would surprise her if she immediately agreed to betray Owen Dong back to The Lane Family.
“Hungry?” Christine White asked suddenly, remembering something.
Hugh Dong shook his head, “I’m tired and want to rest for a while.”
“Go to your room and rest then, can you walk?” Christine White looked at his pale face with some concern.
After drinking so much wine, the strength of the wine is not expected to pass, and it is not certain whether there is any strength.
Hearing Christine White’s question, Hugh Dong cupped the armrests of the sofa with both hands and tried to stand up, but soon, due to the weakness of his legs, he fell back to sit down again.
Christine White sighed softly at the sight and stepped forward to hold him up, “I’ll do it, where’s the key to your room?”
Hugh Dong lowered his head to look at his pockets, but realized that the clothes he was wearing had been changed, and immediately frowned, “My clothes …”
“Don’t worry, someone else changed it for you.” Christine White thought that he was dissatisfied with the clothes she had changed for him, and hurriedly explained.
Hugh Dong laughed softly, “I wish you had changed it for me.”
“Hmm?” Christine White froze slightly, then pursed up her lips and lectured in a serious manner, “Hugh Dong, I’m your sister-in-law now, so don’t mouth off to me in the future.”
“Sister-in-law …” Hugh Dong’s eyelids drooped lightly, hiding the gloom under his eyes, and he laughed at himself in his heart.
Yeah, sister-in-law!
In the past, when he thought he was the illegitimate son of The Lane Family, she was also his sister-in-law, but because he hated The Lane Family and hated Baird Lane, he didn’t put much stock in her sister-in-law status, and even thought it would be a great pleasure to snatch her away from Baird Lane.
But now that Baird Lane is his own brother from the same father and mother, and she is his real full sister-in-law, those thoughts he had before can no longer be moved.
Thinking of this, Hugh Dong’s fists clenched once again.
He didn’t understand why God played with himself so much, why he was given such a rough fate!
“What’s on your mind?” Feeling the restless breath coming from her side, Christine White twisted her head to look at Hugh Dong.
Hugh Dong closed his eyes, pushed down the emotions in his heart, and returned as calmly as possible, “Nothing.”
“Yes?” Christine White wasn’t convinced and stared at him silently for a moment before finally letting him go, “Since it’s nothing, where’s your room key?”
“In the one I came in.” Hugh Dong replied.
“I see then, wait here for a moment while I get the keys.” Christine White said, releasing him to stand against the wall so he wouldn’t fall, and then heading towards the laundry room.
Soon, she found the key out, but there were several on it, and she couldn’t tell which one was the one for his room, so she had to ask him all together.
Hugh Dong looked at it and pointed to a key with a blue pattern on the handle.
Christine White nodded knowingly and used that key to unlock the door to his room.
It was the first time she’d ever been in his room, and she couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth a few times as she gave it a cursory glance.
Sure enough, the setup and décor, full of luxury, and the purple bedspread curtains, just as tawdry as the others.
This aesthetic, really … It’s hard to explain!
Christine White wrinkled her nose and pulled her gaze back, not looking anymore for fear of looking even hotter.
“Well, go to sleep and call me if you need anything.” She lifted the covers and helped the man into bed, her mouth barking instructions.
Hugh Dong gave a mental hmmm, pulled the covers over his head, and didn’t move.
Christine White looked at him like this, her lips parted slightly to say something, but in the end said nothing and left his room gingerly.
Once outside, she took out her cell phone and called Baird Lane.
The call was quickly answered, and Baird Lane’s cold, deep voice came through with a hint of anger mixed in, “Hello?”
“Are you all right?” Christine White inquired nervously, “Did something happen to you with Molly Bort?”
She could feel that his anger was not directed at her.
Baird Lane took a breath and pushed his anger down for the moment, “It’s fine, not a big deal, you’re not okay?”
“It’s nothing much, just wanted to tell you that Hugh Dong woke up just now.” Seeing that he was unwilling to answer, she did not force herself and stated the purpose of her call.
Baird Lane’s tone changed as soon as he heard, with undisguised concern, “How is he?”
“I made him sobering soup and he drank it, he’s not so drunk.” Christine White called back.
“Uh-huh.” Baird Lane nodded, and a hint of softness colored his cool eyes, “He …”
“What?” Christine White wondered.
Baird Lane’s thin lips quirked, “Has he come to terms with who he is?”
“It hasn’t quite sunk in yet.” Christine White sighed softly as she glanced at the door to the room behind her.
Baird Lane frowned, “You didn’t persuade him?”
“Persuaded, and I’ve talked to him so much about the past, it’s just that this issue of his identity shifting is hitting him a little too hard, and it’s going to take time for him to come to terms with it.” Christine White said.
Baird Lane’s brow relaxed, “I see, where is he, you give him the phone.”
“I can’t give it, he just said he was tired and wanted to rest so he’s asleep now, so let’s wait until he wakes up.” Christine White shrugged her shoulders apologetically.
Baird Lane pressed his temples, “Okay, you’ll contact me when he wakes up.”
“You’re not coming over tonight?” Christine White was slightly surprised.
Baird Lane’s eyes narrowed, “No, I found out the route Molly Bort was rescued from and I’m going to take my men after her.”
Maybe we can find Owen Dong’s home base.
Even if you can’t find it, find Leo Bort.
Christine White knew what Baird Lane was planning to do and was a little worried, “Are you really going to go after them?”
“I can’t wait to make these people pay.” Baird Lane said coldly.
Christine White bit her lip, “Well, since you’ve already decided, I won’t try to talk you out of it, so be careful and protect yourself.”
At that, the corners of Baird Lane’s mouth lifted, “Well, I know.”
The call ended and Christine White put down her cell phone with an inward sigh.
She knows that Baird Lane chased after them with the aim of finding out Owen Dong and the others, but she thinks that he probably made a wasted trip this time, and that Owen Dong is not that easy to catch.
It had to be said that Owen Dong was really an old fox that had become refined, and she had only seen him once when she came to C City for so long, and it was still at the old man’s funeral.
Although Hugh Dong says that Owen Dong is managing the current Dong’s Group, strangely enough, Owen Dong has never shown up at Dong’s Group, or else they would have caught Owen Dong long ago.
I wonder where Owen Dong is hiding.
