Chapter 464 – The Eve of Parting
Time is running out so fast ah …
Christine White’s eyes dimmed as she looked into Baird Lane’s face, her heart full.
Outside the door, Land’s assistant saw that she didn’t respond and thought that she didn’t hear it, and reminded again, “Miss, we need to hurry up, there will be doctors and nurses coming over to check on the room in a while, and when they see them, they’ll surely tell President Lane that you’ve been here.”This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Hearing this, Christine White closed her eyes hard and removed her hand from Baird Lane’s face.
“I know, you were waiting for me for a minute, just a minute!” She said back to Land’s assistant.
Assistant Land agreed.
Christine White turned her attention back to Baird Lane, tears falling from her eyes, “Goodbye Baird, wait for me when I come back, be sure to wait for me when I come back!”
The words fell out of her mouth, and with trembling hands, she ruthlessly pressed the button on the arm of her wheelchair.
The wheelchair turned immediately, taking her toward the door.
The door opened and Land’s assistant saw her come out and took the initiative to walk behind her and help her push up the wheelchair, “Let’s go back, Miss.”
Christine White didn’t answer, just craned her head and looked at the door behind her with red eyes.
She looked at him for about ten seconds before she bit her lip and withdrew her gaze turning her head back, “Let’s go …”
Assistant Land knew she was upset and thought about comforting her, “Don’t worry miss, when your injury heals, you’ll be able to come back to see President Lane.”
“I know, but that will be a long time from now, but thank you.” Christine White barely squeezed the corners of her mouth.
Land’s assistant laughed nervously and didn’t say anything more, pushing her in the direction of the elevator.
After walking about a short distance, Christine White suddenly heard footsteps, which happened to originate from the elevator side.
Soon, the sound of footsteps came closer and closer, followed by a tall and slender figure carrying a thermos walked out from the corner and caught Christine White’s eye.
Christine White’s body instantly tightened when she saw who was coming and she slapped the armrest in panic, “Assistant Land, don’t let her see me.”
“Hey?” Assistant Land was flabbergasted for a moment, somewhat unresponsive.
Miss White was more anxious when she saw that he didn’t move, “She’s Molly Bort!”
At the sound of the words Molly Bort, Land’s assistant finally snapped back to her senses and pushed Christine White through a random hospital room door and in.
The ward looked at them curiously, “Who are you guys?”
Christine White kept her head down and didn’t reply, her body trembling slightly.
Assistant Land had to smile and reply, “We’re here to see our friend, but it seems we’re in the wrong ward, sorry sorry sorry, we’ll be right out.”
With that said, he opened the door and pushed Christine White out of the others’ hospital room once he heard footsteps go by outside.
Once outside, Assistant Land glanced back and saw the figure push open the door to Baird Lane’s hospital room and walk in, which was a huge relief, “Miss, the man’s gone.”
“Gone?” Christine White’s eyes wavered, finally focusing.
Assistant Land nodded, “Yes, she’s gone.”
“Where did she go?” Christine White glanced back, but saw no sign of Molly Bort, and had a sneaking suspicion.
Assistant Land did not reply.
Christine White gripped the armrests of her wheelchair and her volume drew up, “Was it in Baird’s ward? Did she go to Baird’s ward?”
Assistant Land’s expression was all over the place, “Yes …”
Christine White’s heart instantly went much colder, “Why? Why would she come here and go to Baird’s hospital room?”
“This …” Assistant Land rubbed his nose, seemingly unsure of what to say.
Christine White sensed something was wrong with him and bit her lip dead center, “Are you hiding something from me?”
“Miss, you’d better not ask.”
“No, I’m going to ask!” Christine White got emotional, “I just want to know why Molly Bort can come here and see Baird Lane.”
“About that, I don’t know what to say, Miss, let’s go back and let Chief Camp speak, okay, he knows a little more than I do.” Assistant Land kicked the ball to Bess Camp.
Christine White took him at his word and took a long breath before barely suppressing the excitement inside, “Good.”
“Let’s go then.” Assistant Land sighed in relief and pushed her on to the elevator.
Christine White’s head was bowed and her breath was low around her, making it hard to tell what was going on in her mind.
Ding, the elevator’s here.
Christine White finally responded, “Don’t go back yet, go to ICU.”
“What’s the point of going there?” Assistant Land was a little puzzled.
A twinge of guilt appeared in Christine White’s eyes, “Going to see someone.”
In her life, she owed three people the most, her previous children and Bess Camp.
The last one is Hugh Dong, who is still lying in the ICU.
Previous children aside, what she owes Bess Camp, she pays back by being a stand-in for the rest of her life, while what she owes Hugh Dong, she doesn’t even have a way to pay back.
Now half a month has passed and she hasn’t heard any news about Hugh Dong waking up, that is to say, Hugh Dong can’t wake up and has really become a vegetable, and the person who caused him to become a vegetable is her, Christine White.
He was the one who became like this to save her, and she was the one who had wronged him!
Got to the ICU and as luck would have it, no one was outside the ICU.
Christine White let Land’s assistant help herself up, and then she barely managed to stand still while bracing herself against the glass exterior wall of the ICU, looking straight inside.
The man inside had been removed from the ventilator, but still had several vials of suspension.
And she’d noticed how much weight he’d lost, skinny cheekbones bulging out.
Such Hugh Dong can be described as withered, where is the half of the former vigorous, seductive appearance ah.
“Miss, are you alright?” Looking at Christine White crying and blaming herself, Land’s assistant handed over a tissue and asked with concern.
He had also heard about that Mr. Dong inside, and knew exactly why Mr. Dong was lying here, so he wasn’t at all surprised that Christine White would cry like this.
Christine White took the tissue, “It’s okay, let’s go.”
“Won’t you watch a little longer?” Assistant Land was surprised.
This was an ICU, not an inpatient unit, and he wasn’t worried about people coming in until he did.
“Don’t look.” Christine White wiped a tear from her eye and said in a low voice, “I’ll find a way to pay him back later for what I owe him, we’d better go now, Ives will be coming over a lot, he’s Hugh Dong’s attending, so it wouldn’t be a good idea if he happened to bump into us.”
“In that case, let’s go.” Assistant Land helped Christine White back into her wheelchair and pushed her away.
Back at the hospital where Christine White was staying, Bess Camp was already waiting for them in the waiting room.
Seeing them return, Bess Camp volunteered to take over Land’s assistant’s job of carrying Christine White from her wheelchair to the hospital bed.
“How’s that for not getting caught?” Bess Camp asked as she tucked Christine White in.
Christine White shook her head without saying anything, not looking very emotional.
Bess Camp noticed something was wrong with her and looked to Land’s assistant, “Is something wrong?”
Assistant Land scratched his head and didn’t hide it, telling everything that he said happened in the hospital.
After saying that, he also analyzed, “The lady either doesn’t want to part with President Lane or she minds Molly Bort, anyway, there shouldn’t be any other reason than those.”
“Isn’t that right Christine?” asked Bess Camp, turning her attention back to Christine White.
Christine White head nodded.
Bess Camp softly soothed, “Don’t worry, we’ll come back later, even if we’re abroad, I’ll have people always prying for news of President Lane to let you know, as for Molly Bort, you don’t have to pay attention to it, and when we come back in the future, you’ll seek revenge on her.”
“I understand.” Christine White bit her lip, “But I want to know right now, how did Molly Bort end up at the hospital?”
