Chapter 722 Female Assistant
“I’ve been here for a while, I didn’t want to give you a surprise, how is it, is the surprise here?” Christine White sat up and asked with a smile.
Baird Lane favored and scratched her nose, “Indeed was surprised.”
He had thought at the time that some ungrateful woman had run into his office.
Must be Cici Jagu or something.
Christine White, unaware that Baird Lane had misunderstood her, rubbed her brow, “Honey, want some water.”
“Good.” Baird Lane answered and got up, going outside to pour her water.
After pouring the water, he returned to the lounge and handed her the glass of water.
Christine White took it with both hands, “Thank you husband.”
“Verbal thanks?” Baird Lane raised an eyebrow.
Christine White narrowed her eyes, “So what do you want?”
She knew that this man liked to get his way and try to take advantage of him at every opportunity.
Baird Lane pointed to his lips, “Give me a kiss.”
Christine White rolled her eyes breathlessly, but still obeyed and kissed him.
Baird Lane then hooked his thin lips in satisfaction, “In the future, when you come, just go straight into the rest room to rest, don’t sleep outside, beware of catching a cold.”
“I know, it’s just that I was too sleepy at that time, I simply didn’t have the spirit to walk to the rest room, you also know, I’m getting more and more sleepy lately.” Christine White said helplessly as she sipped her water.
Baird Lane touched her stomach.
Her stomach was soft and flat, it was hard to imagine that Lima actually had a child.
And this child was their second love child after Bo.
“What for.” Christine White slapped Baird Lane’s hand down in no good mood.
Baird Lane smiled, “I’m touching the baby.”
Christine White rolled her eyes, “He’s just a dot now, where’s the touching.”
Baird Lane put his hand back on his lap, “I know, but I just want to feel him.”
At that, Christine White smiled, “He hasn’t started to develop yet, wait until you’re four months old and you’ll almost have a slight fetal movement, you’ll be able to feel it then.”
“Fetal movement?” Baird Lane raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously finding the term new for the first time.
Christine White hmmm’d, “That’s right, it’s him inside my belly, moving.”
Baird Lane’s pupils zoomed slightly.
So, the baby was moving when he was inside his stomach.
He thought it would only do so when it was born.
It seemed that he had to learn more about pregnancy before he could take care of him.
He’d missed the birth of Little Treasure, this child’s, and he didn’t want to.
“What’s on your mind?” Christine White couldn’t help but wave her hand when she saw Baird Lane’s eyes lowered as if he was thinking about something on his mind.
Baird Lane’s eyes flickered back, “Nothing.”
He grabbed her hand in his, “Well, are you going home, I’ll have someone take you back?”
“I’ll wait for you to join me.” Christine White stretched.
Baird Lane squeezed her hand, “I can’t go, I’ve got a couple of clients coming over from abroad tonight that I have to socialize with.”
“So.” Christine White nodded her head, indicating that she knew, “That’s fine then, I’ll go back first, come back early in the evening, don’t drink too much wine ah.”Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Uh-huh.” Baird Lane nodded.
Christine White lifted the covers and prepared to get out of bed.
Baird Lane squatted his body, picked up the shoes on the floor, and put them on her personally.
Christine White was not surprised by his action, but instead just sat on the edge of the bed and watched him put them on her.
It clearly showed that she was used to him putting her shoes on.
“There.” Baird Lane stood up as he put Christine White’s shoes on.
Christine White got off the bed as well and stepped on the floor.
Baird Lane handed her her bag, then took her hand and walked out of the break room.
Once outside in the office, Baird Lane calls an assistant over.
Gates had gone below and was now out of The Lane Family group, and now it was a couple of assistants sharing Gates’ duties.
Once these assistants are fully up to speed, Baird Lane will select the best assistant to take the position of Chief Assistant, which is where Gates was before.
The one who came in this time was a female assistant, re-recruited following the departure of Cici Jagu.
“Chairman, what are your orders?” The female assistant respectfully inquired.
Baird Lane put his jacket on Christine White, “This is ma’am, you take ma’am back.”
The female assistant gave Christine White a surprised look.
So this was the wife of the chairman of The Lane Family Group.
She had only heard of it, not seen it, and now that she saw it, it was quite beautiful.
“Okay chairman.” The female assistant quickly adjusted her emotions and returned without being humble.
Christine White smiled, “Hubby, this assistant of yours is good, much, much better than that Cici Jagu.”
The female assistant smiled and responded, “Thank you ma’am for the compliment.”
Who that Cici Jagu was, she also knew, although she hadn’t met her either, but the gossip about that woman in the group was not at all small.
Everyone said, that woman came in, not at all to be an assistant ah, but rushed to the position of the chairman’s wife it, took over being kicked out of The Lane Family Group by the president.
Now the real chairman’s wife complimented her, obviously shows that the lady likes her very much, also rest assured that she is working beside the chairman.
Baird Lane also understood Christine White’s meaning and was slightly relieved.
He was afraid that she would mind having a female assistant beside him.
Of course, if she minded, he would naturally transfer the person.
But now it seemed obvious that there was no need.
“Madam, let’s go.” The female assistant made a gesture of invitation.
Christine White hmmmed and looked at Baird Lane again, “I’ll go first, don’t drink too much.”
“Good.” Baird Lane nodded.
Christine White waved at him and followed the female assistant away.
Back at the old mansion, Aunt Lucy greeted her and took the bag on her shoulder, “Ma’am, why are you back so late?”
“Went over to Baird’s for a while.” Christine White said rubbing her temples.
Aunt Lucy nodded her head, “I see, are you hungry ma’am?”
Christine White rubbed her stomach, “A little.”
“Alright then, let’s get dinner started then, I’ll have someone go get Bao over here.” Aunt Lucy said.
Christine White smiled and answered, “Good.”
Aunt Lucy left.
Christine White walked towards the dining room alone.
Soon, Aunt Lucy came over holding Little Treasure.
When Little Treasure saw Christine White, her eyes lit up and she opened her arms to let her hold her.
Aunt Lucy, however, hurriedly said, “Little Young Master, no, mommy bad little brother or sister, can’t hold you for a while, oh.”
Hearing this, little baby’s eyes instantly dimmed.
Christine White, however, smiled and stretched out her hand, “It’s okay Aunt Lucy, I’m not a porcelain doll, it won’t be okay to hug Little Treasure.”
Little Treasure heard this and her bleak eyes lit up again.
Aunt Lucy also didn’t have to isolate mother and child, so after hearing Christine White’s words, she handed Little Treasure to her.
After all, if she really didn’t allow Christine White to get close to Little Treasure, what if mother and son became estranged in the future?
Christine White smiled as she took Little Treasure and gave Little Treasure a kiss on the cheek.
little baby’s face reddened and she buried her head in Christine White’s arms, shy.
Christine White touched Little Treasure’s head and then asked about his learning today.
Little Treasure slowly recounted it, describing it better and much more fluently than last time.
“Mistress, young master, let’s eat first.” Aunt Lucy reminded.
Christine White put Little Treasure on the chair next to her and put a napkin on Little Treasure, “Alright baby, eat.”
“Daddy?” Little Treasure picked up her chopsticks and looked at her, clearly asking again why Baird Lane hadn’t come back for dinner.
Aunt Lucy also froze for a moment before asking, “Yes ma’am, isn’t mister coming back tonight ah?”
