Seize His Little Wife

“It’s me.” Baird Lane stood in the doorway of the research lab.

Ives Norton looked at him and walked over, “What brings you here?”

“Is there anything I can do to help? I want to work on the serum in thirteen days.” Baird Lane looked at Ives Norton, his tone serious.

Ives Norton knew why he must study the serum in thirteen days.

Because Christine White is only thirteen days away.

“You think the serum is that easy to research?” Ives Norton blanked him.

Baird Lane clenched his fists, “Can’t it really go any faster?”

“Yes, as long as you get a couple professors in virology to come over and work with us on the serum, I think it should go faster.” Ives Norton said seriously.

Baird Lane looked at him for a few moments, “I see, I’ll arrange it right away.”

Although this kind of professor was a talent on the national side that he couldn’t necessarily hire, he had to try anyway.

“Well, then, as soon as you can.” Ives Norton nodded.

Baird Lane turned away, and when he got outside, he called Gates and told him to find a professor in the field and make sure he got the professor here, no matter what the promises were.

Finally those professors made an offer to Baird Lane to go over there and help out if Baird Lane would allocate $50 million a day to sponsor the Academy of Sciences.

Baird Lane agreed.

So the next day, the hospital’s research lab was filled with a few more professorial bigwigs in virology.

When Christine White found out, she realized that she had a much better chance of surviving, but she still didn’t have the confidence in her heart that she would survive.

She now wakes up each day feeling worse than she did yesterday.

Yesterday’s head was only mildly groggy, today’s, well, it’s groggy as hell.

She was quarantined and couldn’t take half a step away from the ward, she had to stay in the ward and the only way she could see anyone was by cell phone video.

Right now, she’s videoing Bo.

Po probably knew what was wrong with her now, and a few moments of worry showed in her light brown pupils.

Christine White’s heart warmed and sank when she saw it.

Warmed by the fact that Bao cared about her, and sour because she really didn’t know if she would survive.

She doesn’t want to die, she wants to live and watch Po grow up.

But the odds are too slim!

“Have some water.” Baird Lane poured a glass of water for Christine White.

Christine White huffed and took the glass of water, “Thanks.”

Baird Lane hmmm’d and took her phone away, “Don’t video, you need more rest now.”

“I know.” Christine White sipped her water and returned with a hoarse voice.

Baird Lane looked at her, “Don’t worry, it’s fine.”

Christine White lowered her head, “I hope so, but it’s time for you to get out, you’ve been in here for ten minutes.”

Baird Lane took the glass of water from her, “It’s fine, I can stay for half an hour, and ten minutes.”

He’s not going anywhere, and Christine White is going along with it.

The half-hour viewing was arranged by Ives Norton.

It shouldn’t matter if he doesn’t go.

But when the half hour was up, she would kick him out even if he didn’t leave.

“Lisa came over to see you yesterday and found out how you were doing.” Baird Lane said suddenly as he pulled a chair over and sat down.

Christine White wasn’t surprised by this, “I haven’t been going to the office, she’s always going to be looking for me, and when she finds me, doesn’t she know what’s going on with me right now.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of your company for you.” Baird Lane looked at her.

Christine White gave a puzzled hmmm, “What do you mean?”

“After you fell asleep yesterday afternoon, I left the hospital for a while, went to your office, and helped you approve the paperwork.” Baird Lane said.

Christine White was surprised, “You approved the paperwork for me? And those people at the company approved it, and Lisa didn’t stop you?”

“No, I told them that you are my wife and took out your papers, they believed it so they agreed, not to mention that our two families were already working together, there is no reason for them to disagree, as for Lisa, you can’t handle a lot of things the way you are right now, and she can’t do it on her own, so she can only rely on me.” Baird Lane explained.

The corner of Christine White’s mouth twitched, “Looks like I have you to thank for that.”

Baird Lane’s thin lips slightly hooked, “You are my wife, isn’t it right to help you?”

Christine White gave him a blank look and didn’t bother to speak.

Baird Lane is in an even better mood.

Looks like she agrees with what he just said.

In the past, if he had said she was his wife, she would have retorted.

There was no rebuttal this time, clearly a compromise.

Soon the half hour was up.

Christine White rushed Baird Lane out.

She didn’t want to infect him herself.

Baird Lane didn’t stay much longer and went straight out.

Once he’s gone, he’ll have to wait until tomorrow to see her again.

Once Baird Lane was out of the hospital room, he went to the sterilization room and disinfected himself all over, then took another trip to the research room.

Even though those professors had only just joined and he knew by thinking about it that they must not have researched anything yet, he just wanted to go over there and ask about it or he wouldn’t feel comfortable with it.

Sure enough, the result of the questioning was what he thought it would be, no research was done, and he left.

Back at the old mansion.

Hugh Dong cuts Baird Lane off, “How’s Christine doing now?”

He’s worried.

Everyone in the old mansion, in quarantine, was not allowed to come out, and all he could do to find out about Christine White was to wait at the door of Baird Lane’s room.

Wait for Baird Lane to return and cut him off.

He didn’t know how long he’d been waiting, but thankfully, now it was finally time.

“You should call your sister-in-law.” Baird Lane looked at Hugh Dong and corrected in a serious tone.

Hugh Dong’s expression was bleak for a moment, then he grunted, “It’s not like you’re related to her now, I’m not going to call her sister-in-law.”

Baird Lane, if he didn’t know, Hugh Dong was deliberately antagonizing him, his thin lips pursed, “When she’s well, we’ll have a wedding right away, and by then, she’ll still be your sister-in-law.”

“Christine agreed to be with you?” Hugh Dong was surprised.

Baird Lane lifted his chin, “Or what?”

Christine White was talking about giving him a chance, but wouldn’t giving a chance mean getting back together with him.

“Hmph, I really don’t know why on earth she had to be blind to see you.” Hugh Dong said sarcastically with some reluctance.

Baird Lane frowned, “What did you say?”

“Nothing, you haven’t answered me, how is she now?”

“She’s fine.” Baird Lane replied.

He won’t tell them the specifics of Christine White’s situation.

If they say it, they can’t help and will only worry for nothing.

“It’s really good? But I just started watching her video with Bo, she suffered a lot… that virus, what are the symptoms? Can it be cured?” Hugh Dong asked again.

He knows very little about the outside world because he has been doing rehab.

He knew about the virus, and had heard Christine White mention it, but there was nothing about the symptoms, the incubation period, the danger period.

Just know that being infected with that virus is a serious matter or they wouldn’t have been quarantined.

“That’s not something you care to concern yourself with, the most important thing for you right now is to get back on your feet, other than that, you don’t have to care, all I can tell you is that Christine will heal.” Baird Lane looked at Hugh Dong and returned indifferently.

He wasn’t going to tell the truth, it wouldn’t do any good to tell it.

It’s just going to be more of a wake-up call.

“I’ll be able to stand up in a little while, but I want to know now, can I go see her?” Hugh Dong asked.

Baird Lane refused outright, “No way! You’ll stay at the old mansion and not go anywhere, it’s for your own good.”

Hugh Dong frowned with some dissatisfaction.

At this point, Baird Lane asked, “Where’s Bo?”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
