Seize His Little Wife

Baird Lane snapped to a halt, “You know?”

Who told her that?

“Well, I know.” Christine White looked at him as if she could see what was going on in his mind and smiled forlornly, “Miss Molly Bort called and told me.”

“Molly?” frowned Baird Lane.

Christine White nodded, “She told me that you went to the hospital to be with her last night and that you’ve been seeing her there a lot in the past two days, Baird, didn’t you say you wouldn’t see Ms. Bort as much as you wanted? Why did you go back on your word?”

It was a question she was nervous about asking.

Baird Lane went cold, “It’s none of your business.”

“I know, but I just can’t get over it.” Christine White bit her lip.

Baird Lane narrowed his eyes, “You’ve got something over your head.”

“Of course it’s too much for you to go and see another woman, Baird, and you know, as I’ve told you before, I mind Miss Molly Bort.” Christine White bowed her head, and a low mood radiated around her.

Baird Lane pursed his thin lips, “You don’t need to mind Molly, and as I said, it’s not going to happen with me and Molly.”

“But I’m scared.” Christine White gripped her shirt around her chest, her voice catching a little, “Can you give me something to feel safe about?”

“What security do you want?” Baird Lane looked at her.

Christine White took a breath, “The security I want is simple, I just want you to be able to tell me where you’re going from now on so I don’t have to worry so much.”

In fact, she wanted more, but she was afraid to say it.

I’m afraid that if I say it, he’ll think she’s greedy and won’t promise her any of it.

“I know.” Baird Lane responded faintly.

A flash of surprise crossed Christine White’s eyes, “You promise?”

“Uh-huh.” Baird Lane returned, “Anything else for you?”

“No more no more.” She waved her hand.

Baird Lane turned and walked into the bathroom.

A small smile slowly spreads across Christine White’s face as she walks over to the rack next to her bed and hangs up his clothes before returning to her bed and beginning to sleep.

She was afraid that if she didn’t go to sleep, Baird Lane would come out later and try to have that with her, and she was afraid that it wouldn’t be good if she couldn’t find any reason to say no.

However Baird Lane didn’t have that mind either, and I don’t know what he’s been up to lately, there’s always a faint tiredness on his cold face.

So he got out of the shower and went back to bed.

Christine White wasn’t even asleep when he fell asleep.

She turned sideways, lifting her eyes to surreptitiously survey him, and a wave of heartache rose in her as she looked at the dark bruises beneath his eyelids.

Christine White reached out from under the covers and gently touched Baird Lane’s face, her fingers tracing his brow.

She never thought that she would marry such a wonderful man in her life.

It was also because he was so good that she lived every day on edge, afraid that she wouldn’t be able to hold on to her marriage.

Especially when Molly Bort appeared, her sense of crisis was elevated to the extreme, in fact, even if he said he would not get back together with Molly Bort, her heart is still not assured, after all, the whole life is still so long, who knows what will happen in the future?

In this moment, Christine White is uncertain and apprehensive.

So much so that when I woke up the next day, my whole body was drained.

“Aunt Lucy, good morning.” She yawned and came downstairs.

Aunt Lucy was pouring water for Baird Lane when she heard her voice and smiled back, “Good morning ma’am.”

Christine White smiled and was about to ask what she was having for dinner this morning when she saw Baird Lane on the couch, and her eyes went wide with utter incredulity as she spoke, “Why are you still here?”

Baird Lane’s face darkened at her comment, “This is my house, why can’t I be here?”

“No, that’s not what I meant.” Christine White knew that he misunderstood, and hurriedly explained, “I mean, why are you still at home at this hour today, don’t you usually leave early?”

“There’s nothing going on at the office today.” Baird Lane returned coldly as he closed the chore.

Christine White gave an oh-so-subtly, unasked question.

Baird Lane glanced at her and added abruptly, “In two months, when the company is completely stabilized, I’m going back to The Lane Family headquarters.”

“What?” Christine White’s body shook, “Back to headquarters?”noveldrama

“Good, when I was in the process of acquiring this company, it was because it still had value, and now that the company has pretty much stabilized, it’s only natural for me to go back to the headquarters and sit on it.” Baird Lane returned.

“So.” Christine White’s eyes dimmed.

She actually knew this day would come, she just didn’t expect it to come so soon.

Two months later, ah in the blink of an eye.

That meant she would only be able to work with him for another two months as well.

Aunt Lucy, who hadn’t said anything, read Christine White’s mind and rolled her eyes, “Sir, when you go back to the headquarters, why don’t you take your wife with you?”

“Take her?” Baird Lane raised an eyebrow.

Christine White looked at Aunt Lucy in surprise.

Aunt Lucy winked at her, “Yes sir, the missus has been your secretary for so long, don’t you think it’s a shame you don’t take her?”

“What’s the pity.” Baird Lane’s face was cold, “She was a secretary for a few months, but it doesn’t mean she’s fully qualified for the position, the requirements of the headquarters are different from those of the subsidiaries, and the secretaries at the headquarters are not within her reach in terms of either education or talent.”

It was a bit of a solid statement on his part, but Christine White also knew that he was right.

She was a graduate of an ordinary university, and The Lane Family’s headquarters, from the various executives down to the basic staff, were almost all students from well-known universities, so she really wasn’t qualified to enter the headquarters as a secretary, not to mention that she didn’t even know a single foreign language.

She wanted to follow him, but she didn’t even have the capital to do so!

Christine White’s head hung low, feeling utterly useless.

How could Aunt Lucy not see what was going on in her mind, her heart was written all over her face, and she couldn’t help but sigh, “Sir, you’re talking too much, aren’t you?”

“I’m telling the truth.” Baird Lane stood up and headed for the dining room.

Christine White tugged on Aunt Lucy’s sleeve, “Well Aunt Lucy, Baird is right, he has promoted me extraordinarily to be a secretary now, come on, breakfast first.”

“Go.” Aunt Lucy nodded.

After breakfast, Christine White lifted her own bag and prepared to go out.

Baird Lane passed her with the car keys, “Get in, I’ll drive you.”

“Huh?” Christine White froze for a split second.

Baird Lane frowned, “What are you still standing there for.”

“Oh, coming.” Christine White snapped back to her senses, her face beaming as she hurried to follow him.

Baird Lane still dropped her off at an intersection not far from the office and drove off himself.

Christine White stretched and was just about to lift her foot to the office when suddenly another car pulled up beside her.

The car window rolled down and Hugh Dong’s seductive and provocative face was imprinted in her eyes.

What’s he doing here?

Christine White frowned a little and pretended not to see the man, keeping her head down as she continued on her way.

Hugh Dong, however, slowly drove his car and followed her while smiling and greeting her, “Christine, good morning, why are you here alone? Why didn’t President Lane take you to the company with him? I just saw him leave you here and go by himself, tsk, this kind of husband is really speechless.”

Christine White covers her ears and pretends she didn’t hear him.

But Hugh Dong didn’t let her go and still kept talking, “Christine, is this marriage between you and President Lane really normal? Don’t you think President Lane is too much? Are you really willing to let him do this to you?”
