Chapter 716 – Dripping Rain
Nana Dodge didn’t believe her, sneered, “Whether it’s called habit, or it’s just to appear that you and Brother Baird are close to each other in my place, I know it in my heart, but unfortunately, ah, fake will always be fake, can’t become real, you and Brother Baird, are not close to each other at all.”
Cici Jagu’s mouth opened, and then she didn’t say anything, dropping her eyelids to hide the darkness in her eyes.
I can’t imagine that Nana Dodge, this stupid bitch, has actually grown up and can’t even be fooled anymore.
It seems that it won’t be that easy for her to utilize Nana Dodge in the future.
“By the way, I also heard that you were kicked out of The Lane Family Group right?” Nana Dodge, unaware that Cici Jagu was calling her stupid in her mind, circled her arms to gloat.
Cici Jagu gave a far-fetched hmmm with a smile.
“Serves you right for going behind my back and coming here for an interview, don’t think I don’t know that you’re just as close as you can get.” Nana Dodge sneered.
Cici Jagu quickly denied, “I didn’t, I just went to work to pay back Chairman Lane because I owed him too much money.”
“Come on, you’re still trying to fool me, you think you can fool me? Even if you go to work, how much money do you earn? I’m afraid even if you earn for ten years, it won’t be enough to pay it back, you’re just trying to get close to Baird’s brother.”
Speaking of this, Nana Dodge couldn’t get enough of it and got out of the car and pushed Cici Jagu, “Do you think that you’re in The Lane Family group and you can make Baird’s brother fall in love with you and then marry into The Lane Family? Let me tell you, absolutely not, not to mention The Camp Family, we The Dodge Family won’t allow it either.”
Cici Jagu covered her shoulders with a bullied look and lowered her head so that no one could see the emotions under her eyes.
Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Nana Dodge thought that she had ripped off her false facade and was embarrassing her, and with a quick smile on her face, she reboarded her car and drove off.
After all, her purpose in coming here was to mock Cici Jagu.
Now that her purpose was accomplished and she was relieved, it was natural for her to leave.
Of course, she also wanted to go into The Lane Family Group to look for Baird’s brother, but Grandpa had said not to disturb Baird’s brother for the time being during this recent period.
After this period of time, Grandpa would help her and Baird’s brother create opportunities, she listened to Grandpa.
Watching Nana Dodge’s red car sports car far away, Cici Jagu’s fists on both sides clenched up.
She knew that after this farewell, her friendship with Nana Dodge was over.
But she didn’t regret it, love was selfish, even if her friendship with Nana Dodge didn’t end now, it would end later.
It was better that it ended now, so that they wouldn’t have to take the friendship into consideration as they fought for Baird’s hand.
With that in mind, Cici Jagu swept away the aggrieved look she’d had a moment ago, took a deep breath, wiped the corners of her eyes, and hailed a cab.
“Where to?” The cab driver asked.
Cici Jagu gave the address of The Lane Family’s old house.
Soon enough, The Lane Family’s old mansion arrived.
Cici Jagu went up to the door and knocked, indicating that she wanted to see Christine White.
Christine White was watching TV in her room and was a little surprised to hear the maid convey that Cici Jagu was looking for her.
“Did she say what she wanted to see me for?” Christine White asked as she put down the apple in her hand.
The maid shook her head, “No, she only said she wanted to see you ma’am.”
“Heh, if she says she wants to see me she’s going to see me? Tell her to go away, I won’t see it!” Christine White waved her hand in boredom.
The maid answered and went down to pass on the message.
Cici Jagu was not surprised to learn that Christine White was not willing to see her, after all, she said those words to Christine White in the morning, it was normal for Christine White not to see her.
In her place, she wouldn’t have met either.
However, it didn’t mean, she gave up.
“Please tell Mrs. Lane that I must see her, and if she doesn’t see me, then I will wait here.” Saying that, Cici Jagu sat down at the foot of the stone lion in front of the old mansion’s gate.
Seeing that she was so stubborn, the maid had no choice but to go find Christine White to convey it again.
Christine White raised her eyebrows, “She won’t leave until I see her?”
“That’s what she said, and she’s even sitting down at the door now.” The maid nodded.
Christine White was exasperated, “She’s clearly threatening me, you reply to her, even if she wants to wait, then so be it, I’d like to see how long she can wait.”
“Yes.” The maid answered and went out.
Christine White continued to nibble on her apple and watched the movie in front of her, a smile on her face, but the smirk reached the bottom of her eyes.
Although she didn’t know why Cici Jagu wanted to see her, but she could be sure that it must not be good.
She wasn’t in the mood to pay any attention to someone who was harboring a crush on her husband.
With that in mind, Christine White yawned, laid down on the couch, and fell asleep.
After sleeping for about another three hours.
Christine White was woken up by a knock on the door.
She rubbed her somewhat groggy head and walked over to open the door.
The person standing outside the door was Aunt Lucy.
It seems that there is something urgent, Aunt Lucy has an anxious expression on her face, “Ma’am, it’s not good, it’s raining outside.”
Christine White cried and laughed when she heard this, “It’s just raining, what’s the big deal?”
“No.” Aunt Lucy danced around for a while, taking a breath, before she added, “It’s that Cici Jagu.”
Hearing the words Cici Jagu, Aunt Lucy realized something and narrowed her eyes, “She wouldn’t have left yet, would she?”
“No, she’s still sitting outside.” Aunt Lucy shook her head.
Christine White looked through her and out at the pouring rain outside, her lips pursed up, “She’s still really persistent, it’s almost dark and she’s not leaving.”
“Yeah, the rain came down about an hour ago, which means she’s been in the pouring rain for an hour yet.” Aunt Lucy talked and chimed in.
Christine White frowned her pretty eyebrows, “An hour, so how is she now?”
That Cici Jagu’s body looked thin, Lin would definitely not be able to stand the rain for such a long time.
She didn’t care about the other party, it was just that if something happened in front of The Lane Family, it would be The Lane Family’s responsibility.
“I don’t know, we haven’t gone over to check.” Aunt Lucy shook her head.
Christine White pinched her brow, “Then have someone go over and check.”
“Yes.” Aunt Lucy answered and immediately went to arrange for manpower.
About ten minutes later, a security guard ran over in the rain, “Ma’am, that Miss Jagu has fainted.”
“What?” Christine White sank her face, “Fainted?”
“Yes, I probed her forehead, it’s hot, I think she has a fever.” The guard said.
Christine White sighed, “Carry the person in, arrange a guest room, and get a doctor, don’t let anyone get well or we’ll be harmed to pay for it.”
“Yes.” The guard nodded and left again.
“Let’s go over and take a look too.” Christine White said to Aunt Lucy.
Aunt Lucy took an umbrella and opened it, propped it on top of her head, and the two of them walked together in the direction of the guest room.
Soon, came to the guest room.
Christine White saw Cici Jagu lying on the bed and the maid was changing her wet clothes.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Christine White just stood aside and sized up Cici Jagu, and looking at her greenish-white face, shortness of breath, and cold shivers all over her body, she was sure that she was really sick.
“Has the doctor come yet?” Christine White asked.
“Coming coming.” The family doctor, wearing a white coat and running in with a medical kit, answered in a hurry.
Christine White moved aside a little to make room, “Doctor, give her a look.”
“Yes ma’am.” The doctor nodded and began to examine Cici Jagu.
Christine White spoke up and asked, “How is she?”
“Has a high fever and isn’t doing too well, needs fluids,” the doctor said.
Christine White lifted her chin, “Then set her up and make sure she’s fixed.”
