Seize His Little Wife

“In my room.” Hugh Dong returned.

Baird Lane nodded, “During this time, little baby will be in your care, you have the least contact with Christine, I am relieved that you are taking care of little baby.”

Hugh Dong’s minimal exposure to Christine White means it’s even less likely that he’ll catch the virus, and with Bao in his care, he can focus on Christine White.

Hugh Dong also understood what he meant and gently answered, “I will take care of little baby.”

“Go to your room then, I should go.” With that, Baird Lane pushed open the door to his room, changed his clothes, and left again.

Hugh Dong sighed inwardly as he watched him come and go.

Baird Lane left the old mansion and went to The Lane Family Group first to get The Lane Family Group’s affairs in order and then to Christine White’s company to help her with her affairs.

Those people at Christine White were happy to see him.

Because he’s the president and chairman of The Lane Family Group, him being with their director means they’re backed up against the tree that is The Lane Family.

Although they were a subsidiary of The Camp Family, The Camp Family’s home base was abroad, so in case something happened, the headquarters couldn’t rush over to help.

So having to rely on The Camp Family is not as good as relying on The Lane Family.

“President Lane, here are today’s papers.” Lisa cradled a stack of papers and placed them on Christine White’s desk.

Baird Lane, now sitting in Christine White’s office, saw the pile of papers and gave a faint hmmm, “Don’t worry about it.”

“Yes.” Lisa let go, but didn’t go out.

Baird Lane looked over at her, “What’s up with you?”

“Chief Camp called me in the morning, he was trying to find the Superintendent, but the Superintendent had quite a few contacts, so he called me, I didn’t tell Chief Camp about the Superintendent, but if Chief Camp hadn’t been able to find the Superintendent, surely he would have sent someone over.” Lisa said.

Baird Lane pinched his brow, “I see what you’re saying, get out, I’ll contact Bess Camp and talk to him.”

“Good, then I’ll trouble President Lane.” Lisa bent her head in delight and turned to go out.

After she left, Baird Lane exhaled in person, put down the pen in his hand, and picked up his cell phone to call Bess Camp over the transatlantic phone.

It’s nighttime on the foreign side, but it’s only eleven o’clock at night, and Bess Camp shouldn’t be asleep yet.

Sure enough, Bess Camp wasn’t sleeping.

The phone rang for a moment and Bess Camp listened to answer it, “Why is President Lane calling me all of a sudden?”

Baird Lane calling did surprise Bess Camp a bit.

Baird Lane was silent for a few seconds before speaking, “I wanted to tell you about Christine.”

“What happened to Christine?” Bess Camp frowned.

Baird Lane pursed his thin lips as he spelled out Christine White’s current situation.

He hadn’t planned on telling The Camp Family people that.

But having just thought about it, I decided to say so.

After all, The Camp Family had been kind to Christine White, and he shouldn’t have kept it from them.

Bess Camp’s entire body is shocked after hearing Baird Lane’s words, and after the shock comes the anger.

“Baird Lane, why didn’t you protect her again?” Bess Camp questioned.

Baird Lane squeezes his cell phone, “This is the kind of situation that no one could have predicted!”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

He admits he didn’t protect Christine.

“Unpredictable? Yes, it’s true that a lot of things in this world are unpredictable, but why can’t you predict anything no matter what?” Bess Camp was furious.

Baird Lane closed his eyes, “I’m telling you this so you know what’s going on with Christine right now.”

“Is Christine still saved?” Bess Camp took a deep breath and barely composed herself.

Baird Lane’s eyes sank, “Ives is doing his best to research the serum.”

“So you’re saying that Christine is currently unsaved?” Bess Camp’s volume rose again.

Baird Lane didn’t deny it, “I won’t let her die.”

“Heh, who can’t talk big, and now that the serum hasn’t even been researched, what makes you so sure!” Bess Camp yelled down.

Baird Lane looked serious, “Just because I’m willing to die with her.”

“What?” Bess Camp froze for a moment before asking uncertainly, “Baird Lane, you’re kidding, right?”

“I never joke about it.” Baird Lane said.

Bess Camp’s lips twitched, “So you’re saying that if the serum really isn’t worked out in the end, you’ll accompany Christine to her death?”

“Yes.” Baird Lane nodded.

Bess Camp was suddenly speechless, and all the anger, too, dissipated at once.

There was really no reason for him to be angry at someone who was willing to accompany someone to their death.

After a moment, Bess Camp rubbed her temples, “How’s Christine doing now?”

“It’s okay now, but as time goes on, she’ll get worse.” Baird Lane replied.

“I know, I’ll come to your place right away.” Bess Camp said.

“Okay, I’ll arrange for someone to pick you up at the airport then.” Baird Lane didn’t stop.

Maybe Christine White will be happy when Bess Camp comes to town.

What’s more, Bess Camp and her are really just siblings, and there’s no reason for him to stop it.

The call ended and Baird Lane dropped his cell phone, picked up his pen and started working on the paperwork.

After the treatment, he had to rush to the hospital.

It was noon the next day when Bess Camp arrived.

Gates took him to the hospital.

Baird Lane was waiting for him at the hospital gate.

As soon as he saw Baird Lane he rushed forward, “Come on, take me to Christine.”

Baird Lane nodded slightly and turned toward the front.

Bess Camp saw this and followed him.

The two changed into protective suits and took full measures before heading to Christine White’s hospital room.

Christine White is sort of sober at this point.

It was sort of, and that’s because her mind was completely scrambled and foggy right now, and she couldn’t think at all, couldn’t think about things without getting nauseous and wanting to throw up.

“Christine,” Baird Lane said as he gently walked over to Christine White’s hospital bed.

Christine White looked over at him, her voice growing hoarse, “Why are you here again? Didn’t you just see it? Get out, don’t come in, I’m getting worse now, you’re coming in more and more often, it’s dangerous, get out!”

Although she was driving people away, the anxiety and worry in her tone was not hidden at all.

Baird Lane knows she’s worried he’s infected and that’s why she’s in a hurry to get rid of him.

It warmed his heart, but at the same time it hurt even more.

“I’m leaving in a few minutes, I came in just to surprise you.” Baird Lane said.

Christine White was puzzled, “Surprise?”

“Uh-huh.” Baird Lane nodded, then pointed aside, “Look who it is.”

Christine White then realized that there was actually someone else with him.

She craned her neck to see someone as wrapped up as Baird Lane in a protective suit and mask and gloves and shook her head, “Don’t recognize them.”

“You really don’t recognize it? Brother I’m sad about that.” Bess Camp spoke up.

At the sound of his voice, Christine White froze for a few seconds, then stared incredulously, “Brother?”

“It’s me.” Bess Camp nodded.

If he could take off his mask, he would have taken it off by now.

Christine White’s eyes reddened, “Brother, is it really you?”

“It’s me.” Bess Camp replied again.

Christine White was thrilled, “What are you doing here?”

“I heard about you from President Lane and was worried about you, so I came over to see you.” Bess Camp replied.

Christine White turned her attention to Baird Lane, “How do you …”

“Don’t blame President Lane, I’m the one who wants to know, and even if President Lane doesn’t say anything, I’m going to come over here and ask what’s wrong with you if I can’t find you, and I’ll find out then too.” Bess Camp said.

Christine White drifted off, “So it is.”

Baird Lane looked at the two siblings happy, and without interrupting them, lifted his foot and exited the hospital room.
