Chapter 739 Christine White’s Decision
Back when she knew that Cici Jagu had that kind of idea about Baird Lane, she should have stepped in and nipped Cici Jagu in the bud.
But just because she didn’t want to be like Molly Bort and strike out at random people like a madwoman, she let Cici Jagu off the hook time and time again.
In hindsight, she was a fool!
“Where’s Cici Jagu?” Christine White looks at Baird Lane.
Baird Lane replied, “Locked up at the hotel.”
“Good, I want to see her.” Christine White said with murder in her eyes.
Baird Lane wasn’t surprised that she wanted to see Cici Jagu, but didn’t agree, “No.”
“Why?” Christine White blushed and looked at her with some displeasure, “You can’t spare her? Or do you want to harbor her?”
Baird Lane frowned and his face sank, “How could you think that about me?”
Christine White’s eyes flickered, then looked away, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it, I just …”
“I know.” Baird Lane’s face softened, and in the softness, there was also a hint of heartache mixed in, “Ives Norton told me, you’ve always had some mental problems, you’re prone to paranoia, easy to get angry, and easy to go to extremes.”
That’s why she said that when she heard him reject her to see Cici Jagu.
But that wasn’t her intention.
Christine White’s mouth dropped open for a moment before she made a sound, “So Ives already told you, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to keep it from you, I was just afraid that if I said it out loud, it would make you think I’m crazy.”
“No, you’re not crazy, you’re normal.” Baird Lane cupped her face and forced her to look at him.
He knew full well that he was inescapably responsible for what she had become.
“You don’t mind that I’m not sane?” Christine White asked with reddened eyes.
Baird Lane smiled, “Do you want me to resent you?”
Christine White shook her head.
Of course she didn’t want to.
Baird Lane kissed her forehead, “So that’s all that matters, I don’t dislike you, I’m just heartbroken.”
“Then you still won’t let me see Cici Jagu?” beamed Christine White unhappily.
Baird Lane rubbed her hair, “I won’t let you see, it’s because you’re still not well enough to move around, when you’re better, how about I accompany you?”
His tone of consultation made Christine White agree.
Although she was eager to take revenge, but all the same, for the sake of her child, she was willing to endure for a while.
While talking, Aunt Lucy arrived.
She pushed the door of the room in and looked at Christine White with tears of joy, “Ma’am.”
“Aunt Lucy,” Christine White smiled back.
Aunt Lucy set the thermos aside and stepped forward to check on her closely, her heart aching at her pale face.
Baird Lane stood up, “Alright Aunt Lucy, set out all the food.”
Aunt Lucy responded evenly, “I know, I’ll get it.”
With that, Aunt Lucy went to get busy.
Christine White watched her busy, and while watching, she asked, “Aunt Lucy, how is Little Treasure doing?”
She remembered that before she fainted and was sent to the ambulance, Little Treasure was also by her side.
Thinking back to the way little baby was crying and sobbing, Christine White’s heart throbbed.
Aunt Lucy brought a bowl of soup to Christine White, “Don’t worry ma’am, little master is fine, before I came, little master also wanted to come, but the little child is too good to come over, so I said, I will bring him tomorrow.”
“Thank you Aunt Lucy,” Christine White took the soup bowl and was relieved.
Aunt Lucy lowered another pair of chopsticks for Baird Lane, “Sir, let’s eat.”
“Uh-huh.” Baird Lane nodded slightly and pulled over a chair to sit down and start eating.
He had been accompanying Christine White since he arrived and had not eaten.
The couple began to eat.
Aunt Lucy just stood and watched with a kind smile.
After watching for a short while, the knock on the door came again, quite urgently.
Aunt Lucy walked over and opened the door, just about to greet the person outside.
The person outside the door then directly crossed over her and came in, going straight to the side of the hospital bed, “Christine are you alright?”
The person who came was Hugh Dong.
Hugh Dong didn’t know that something had happened to Christine White, he had been out socializing all day, or he had just returned to the old mansion from work, and found that none of them were there, and it was only when he asked Uncle Fu that he realized what had happened.
So, he came over in a hurry.
Christine White looked at Hugh Dong who was breathing rapidly and his hair was a bit messy, she knew that he came in a hurry or ran all the way here, and was touched in her heart.
“I’m fine.” Christine White replied with a smile.
Hugh Dong breathed a sigh of relief, “It’s good to be fine.”
He then sank his face and looked at Baird Lane with displeasure, questioning loudly, “I’ve heard it all, Christine’s accident was all because of that go-getter of yours!”
At that, Baird Lane was noncommittal, drew a tissue and wiped the corner of his mouth, “I know, I won’t let her go.”
“Hmph, if you’re going to spare him, then you don’t deserve to be a husband or a father.” Hugh Dong sneered.
Baird Lane ignored him and went to look at Christine White, seeing that she had put down her chopsticks and frowned slightly, “Eat some more?”
“No more, I’m already full.” Christine White touched her stomach.
Seeing this, Baird Lane no longer advised her and took the chopsticks and bowls in her hands and put them aside.
Hugh Dong saw that they hadn’t eaten, and only then did he ask the others, “How is Christine’s situation?”
“Nothing much.” Baird Lane replied casually.
He did not intend to tell the truth about Christine White’s situation.
Saying it out would just poke at people’s hearts.
Hugh Dong was precisely because he could see this, and in his heart, he also realized with a jolt that perhaps the situation was very serious, or else Baird Lane would not look like this.
For a moment, Hugh Dong’s heart was filled with anger.
“That Cici Jagu, what do you want to do about it?” He looked at Baird Lane.
Baird Lane, in turn, looked at Christine White.
Christine White lowered her eyes and didn’t say anything.
Only after a moment did she speak slowly, “Baird, Grandfather’s whip, is it still there?”
“You want the whip to beat her?” Hugh Dong’s eyes widened in surprise.
Baird Lane was also a bit stunned.
How could he not expect that her way of dealing with it, was actually this.
Christine White coldly hooked her lips, “That’s right, but it’s not that simple.”
“Then you want to …”
“You guys will know by then.” Christine White waved her hand, not intending to explicitly state the decision she had in mind.
It was true that she wanted to whip Cici Jagu, but it was definitely not as simple as just whipping.
Seeing that Christine White didn’t want to say it, Baird Lane didn’t force her and nodded slightly, “The whip is still there, let Hugh Dong bring it to you tomorrow.”
The corner of Hugh Dong’s mouth twitched, “How do I know where the whip is?”
“Find Fubar.” Baird Lane throws out these three words.
Hugh Dong shrugged his shoulders, “Alright, I got it.”
“Thanks.” Christine White thanked her.
Hugh Dong waved his hand, “No, it’s a small thing.”
Christine White smiled and didn’t say anything else.
Baird Lane gave an expulsion order to drive people away, “Alright, you go back first.”
Hugh Dong originally did not want to, but seeing Christine White’s pale face, and tired brow, he finally agreed, “Okay, then I’ll go back first, and I’ll see you tomorrow.”
He came in a hurry today, he didn’t buy anything yet.
“Okay, take care on the road.” Christine White waved her hand.

Aunt Lucy didn’t stay here much longer either and didn’t take long to leave as well.
Not long after they left, Ives Norton came over to give Christine White a checkup.
By the time the checkup was done, the time was fast, and it was nine o’clock in the evening.
Christine White looked at Baird Lane, “Baird, why don’t you go back too.”
Baird Lane shook his head, “No, I’ll stay here with you, I don’t feel comfortable with you being alone.”
Christine White looked at his face which was also a bit tired, “But you still have to go to the group tomorrow.”
“It’s fine, I’ll take a few days off, when you’re past these dangerous days, it’s fine for me to go again.” Baird Lane tucked her in, “Sleepy?”
