Chapter 694 Returning to China
“No, I was trusting your vision.” Baird Lane looked down and kissed the corner of her mouth.
Christine White laughed and slapped him on the shoulder, “Behave yourself, I’m tying your tie.”
“You tie yours, I kiss mine, out of the way.” Baird Lane said in disbelief.
Christine White couldn’t do anything with him anymore, so she simply stopped caring about him and let him be.
As he said, the tie suits him.
I should say that any color that is darker suits him better.
Christine White looked at her tie and clapped her hands in satisfaction, “Nice.”
Baird Lane raised his hand and touched that knot in his tie and smiled in the same way, “That’s really nice, but take it off for me.”
“Why?” Christine White looked at him, “You hate it?”
“No, but it’s so late, it’s time for bed.” Baird Lane took her hand and put it on his tie.
Christine White rolled her eyes and removed the tie anyway.
That night, Baird Lane didn’t touch her because he knew she was tired after that long plane ride, so he just put his arm around her and went to sleep.
The next day, after breakfast, Christine White took Baird Lane over to Dr. Pitre’s.
Dr. Pitre saw them coming and got up and won over, “Miss Camp, it’s been a long time.”
“It’s been a long time.” Christine White extended her hand and shook his.
Then pointing to Baird Lane, he introduced, “Dr. Pitre, this is my husband, Baird Lane.”
“Hello Mr. Lane.” Dr. Pitre extended his hand towards Baird Lane.
Baird Lane shook his hand as well, “Hello Dr. Pitre.”
“Dr. Pitre, I heard from my mom that you asked me to come over specifically, is that what this is about?” Christine White asked with a wink.
Hearing her question, Dr. Pitre pulled open a drawer and pulled a piece of information out of it, “It’s like this, regarding Ms. Camp’s implant in the back, we may not be able to do it on our end for a while.”
“Reason!” Baird Lane frowned in displeasure.
Christine White pursed her red lips as well.
As soon as Dr. Pitre took a look at them, he knew that they had misunderstood and scratched his florid white hair and said, “Miss Camp, Mr. Lane, you’ve got it all wrong, what I mean to say is that we just can’t perform the surgery for Miss Camp for the time being, because we’ve got two new special patients on our side, and we need to perform the surgery on them first, and Miss Camp’s surgery will have to be postponed.”
“Special patients?” Christine White raised an eyebrow.
“Yeah.” Dr. Pitre sighed before pulling out two more pictures for her.
Christine White was shocked when she read it and jumped right out of her chair in terror.
Baird Lane hurriedly pulled her into his arms and calmed her down, while also taking the picture out of her hands.
He looked at the two pictures, and while he wasn’t as shocked as she was, his pupils contracted.
Because the two people in the picture were just horrible, there was no good skin anywhere on their bodies, they were wrinkled and horrible.
“That’s a burn too right?” Baird Lane returned the photo to Dr. Pitre.
Dr. Pitre nodded, “Yes, these two ladies, were severely burned by the fire, the burn area is up to eighty percent or more, as you can see, there is not a single place that is good, plus these two identities are not ordinary, so the above requested us, to operate on them first.”
Christine White was out of shock by now, “It’s okay, let’s operate on them first, I just have a few more scars on my lower back and abdomen, nothing serious, they’re a lot more serious than I am.”
At that, Baird Lane didn’t say anything anymore either.
He was thinking about the picture he had just seen.
The original people who were burned by the fire were that way.
Wasn’t his Christine, in the first place, like that?
At the thought, Baird Lane felt a little pain in his heart as it was gripped.
He squeezed Christine White’s hand.
Christine White looked back at him, “What’s wrong?”
Baird Lane shook his head slightly, “It’s okay, it’s nice to have you by my side now!”
Christine White wonders why he’s saying this and cries a little, “Silly!”
Baird Lane said no more, accepting her as a fool.
Christine White then looked back to Dr. Pitre, “Dr. Pitre, how long will it take, roughly, to operate on these two young ladies?”
“Maybe half a year, after all, this skin has to be made and operated on at the same time, so it’s definitely long time-wise, but don’t worry Ms. Camp, I’ll let you know as soon as their surgery is done.” Dr. Pitel said with an apologetic face.
Christine White waved her hand, “Okay, I know, so we’ll take our leave then, hubby, let’s go.”
She taps Baird Lane on the shoulder.
Baird Lane stood up and nodded to Dr. Pitre before taking her hand and walking out of the hospital.
Back at the manor, Timothy’s mother asked, “Well, what did Dr. Pitre say?”
Christine White took her hand and spilled the beans.
When Mother Toki heard this, she let out a sigh of emotion, “In that case, let’s talk about it in half a year.”
“That’s what we thought.” Christine White nodded back.
“Come on, let’s go inside first.” Timothy’s mother took her by one hand and Baird Lane by the other and headed for the manor.
Christine White and Baird Lane had been here almost a week when they decided to return home.
After being out for so long, it was time for them to go back.
Christine White misses Bo, and the company side of things, and it’s time for her to go back and take over, she can’t let Bess Camp continue to run things.
After all, Bess Camp’s own company, still needs him.
At the airport, Tim’s father had backed out of a special meeting to come and see them off.
Christine White hugged Timothy’s father and mother by the hand and followed Baird Lane into the ticket lane.
When she got on the plane, Christine White looked out the window, her eyes full of sadness.
Baird Lane saw it and gave her a hug, “It’s okay, we’ll come over to see them more often and bring Bo with us.”
“That’s what you said.” Christine White huffed.
Baird Lane kissed her forehead, “Well, I’ll say.”
“Stick your shoulders out a little, I’m going to lean and sleep!” Christine White put on her dress hood.
Baird Lane stretched his shoulders out, “Sleep.”
Christine White rested her face against his shoulder and closed her eyes.
This sleep, and then woke up again, it is already in the country yet.
She stretched and opened her eyes, “Arrived?”
“Arrived.” Baird Lane returned as he straightened her hair.
Christine White rolled her sleep stiff neck, “I didn’t realize I’d slept this long.”
“It was a bit of a long sleep.” Baird Lane said looking at her.
He’d been asleep since he’d gotten on the plane and slept for almost ten hours, not waking up once in the middle of it, and if he hadn’t made sure she was okay, he’d have thought she was sick.
And all this time, her sleep quality’s been getting better and better, how she sleeps like she doesn’t get enough sleep.
“What’s on your mind?” Seeing Baird Lane fuming, Christine White nudged him gently.
Baird Lane’s eyes flickered back, “Nothing, let’s go.”
He took her hand and led her off the plane.
As soon as she stepped out of the passageway, Christine White saw Aunt Lucy with Bo from a distance.
Her eyes lit up and she shook off Baird Lane’s hand straight away and ran towards Aunt Lucy and Bo.
Baird Lane saw it, his thin lips pursed, and with a dark, handsome face he pulled his suitcase and walked over as well.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
Christine White came to Bao and greeted Aunt Lucy before extending her hand towards Bao, “Baby, remember mommy?”
“Remember.” Po nodded his little head and held out his little hand as well.
Christine White took him from Aunt Lucy’s arms, “Baby, miss mommy, let mommy give you a kiss.”
With that, she kissed her way towards Bao’s face.
Baird Lane, however, suddenly coughed softly.
Christine White stopped moving to look at him, “What’s wrong?”
