Seize His Little Wife

“It’s none of your business, anyhow you hurry up and call me the money, I’m in a hurry!” Mick White urged with a hundred impatience.

Christine White narrowed her eyes, more than a hint of skepticism in her mind, “I’m not going to pay you until you make it clear.”

She wouldn’t give it even if she made it clear that she didn’t have a penny left anyway.

“Why are you so troublesome, didn’t I tell you that I need it urgently? Why are you still asking questions!” Mick White, upon hearing that Christine White was unmoved and how she wouldn’t let go of the money, immediately stormed and yelled.

Christine White gripped her cell phone tightly and also got angry, “Am I the one who has to ask questions? You take money from me, I should at least know what to use it for, you don’t even tell me what to use it for, why should I give you money?”

“Just because you’re my sister, it’s only right that you pay me, and don’t forget, I’m the only male in our family, and you’ll be relying on me to back you up in the future.” Mick White snorted smugly.

Christine White couldn’t help but roll her eyes, “Say it like you backed me up.”

“I …” Mick White choked, being blocked by her sentence, his face red with shame and annoyance, “That’s because I don’t have the ability right now, as long as I wait until I’m developed, my brother-in-law will surely be impressed with me, that way he won’t dare to be so cold to you.”

He was hard-mouthed and sophomoric.

Christine White expressionlessly laughed twice, “Developed? Then tell me, the last time you invited a client to dinner, did the business come through?”

Mick White’s eyes rolled and he returned without changing his face, “Yellow, the quality of the product was not up to standard for those clients.”

“Well …” Christine White’s small lips pursed, “Is the quality not up to par, or are you simply lying, Mick White you know it in your heart of hearts, you think I’m easy to fool?”

She did have chills for her parents and this brother.

But she never really gave up on the idea of them because they were ultimately her family, and she really wanted them to change their ways if she could, but now it seemed as if she had been naive.

She wasn’t stupid enough to not hear that this brother was lying to her.

“Christine White, are you saying I’m lying to you?” On the other end of the phone, Mick White jumped up like a cat that had its tail stepped on after hearing Christine White’s words.

Christine White tiredly rubbed her eyebrows, “Mick , is it fun to be tough-talking? I know very well what kind of person you are, and I also know in my heart whether it was true or not that you said you invited your clients to dinner last time, I just didn’t break you down.”

Mick White was silent, after a few seconds he spoke in a grim voice, “I admit, I lied to you, I didn’t go into business, but so what, the money is mine if it’s given to me, it’s none of your business how I want to spend it, so just plainly say whether or not you’re going to give it or not!”

“I don’t have any money, and I can’t give it out, and if you want the money for something really serious, I’ll get it together for you no matter what, but you …”

“Alright!” Mick White bellowed interrupting Christine White, “What are you talking so much about, to put it bluntly, you just don’t want to pay me.”

“I don’t have …” Christine White sighed with a tired heart.

She’s literally out of money.

“No money? You’re lying to the ghost, anyway, I remember you Christine White, if you don’t give me money now, don’t expect me to back you up in the future, a selfish woman like you who doesn’t even support her brother to take care of him, it’s no wonder that your brother-in-law looks down on you!” Mick White hung up the phone with disdain.

Christine White was so angry, her eyes were red.

Is that what a brother should say to his sister?

It’s a knife to her heart. If she was selfish, she’d still be penniless.

Plus Baird Lane can’t see her, not because of that, but because he has someone else in mind …

Thinking about this, Christine White only felt aggrieved and even a little breathless.

She dropped the phone and curled up on the couch, wrapping her arms around her legs and burying her head in her knees with a small sob.

I don’t know how long it took, but footsteps sounded outside the door, followed by the door opening and a tall figure walking in.

“What’s wrong with you?” Baird Lane couldn’t help but ask at the sight of the woman on the couch who was dripping with gloom.

Christine White heard his voice and slowly looked up, “You’re back.”

She forced a smile at him.

Baird Lane nodded down and stared at her face for a moment, “You’ve been crying?”

“No. …” She wiped the corners of her eyes a few times in a panic.

Baird Lane grunted, “What are you wiping your eyes for if you haven’t cried.”

Christine White stiffened and pulled at the corner of her mouth in embarrassment.

“Tell me, what’s wrong with you?” Baird Lane asked again as he took off his jacket and dropped it on the hospital bed, pulling a chair across from her and sitting down.

Christine White took a deep breath, “It’s not much, just some stuff going on in my family.”

“What is it?”

Christine White shook her head and smiled bitterly, “It’s my brother, he came to ask me for money again, I couldn’t give it and he scolded me.”

“Being scolded by your brother?” Baird Lane raised an eyebrow and eyed her strangely, “Then you’re really out of your league!”

“I …” Christine White bowed her head in speech.

Baird Lane withdrew his gaze, “Does he do that to you often?”

“Pretty much.” Christine White sighs.

When she was younger, her brother was actually quite nice to her and would defend her when her parents scolded her.

But then, I don’t know what happened, but all of a sudden her brother, like her parents, started to turn his nose up at her, disliking her and hating her and scolding her.

She didn’t know why until now.

“So you haven’t thought about fighting back?” Baird Lane wrapped his arms around himself.

Christine White was stunned, “Resistance?”

“Well, I looked you up a little bit three years ago, and I know about your family, you grew up not being treated well by your parents, who in turn have always taken from you, and in your case, it’s possible to rebel against that.” Baird Lane stated lightly.

Christine White’s lips twitched slightly, “I never wanted to rebel against them, and they were my parents, so how could I …”

“Stupid!” Baird Lane snorted, “Parents aren’t kind, you don’t even have to care that much, just a certain amount of alimony every month.”

“It’s not that simple.” Christine White’s gaze dropped bleakly, “I don’t have the power or the capital to defy them, and what I would face if I did do that I don’t even dare to think about, not to mention the fact that they were always my parents.”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

She remembered that her parents actually liked her and had been kind to her before her brother was born.

Though everything changed back there, they raised her after all.

For that matter, she couldn’t leave them alone.

Seeing Christine White reject her offer, Baird Lane narrowed his eyes, “Are you sure you won’t resist? Aren’t you afraid they’ll drag you down one day?”

“I’m sure they won’t, even if they don’t like me, there’s always a chance they won’t actually harm me as their daughter.” Christine White smiled confidently, not taking his words to heart.

Baird Lane’s thin lips pursed, “Whatever, but hopefully you won’t regret it.”

The White Family That couple, in his opinion, are not good people, and have no affection for Christine White, their daughter, at all, and it’s only Christine White, a stupid woman, who can’t see that.

But he’d already mentioned it, and the stupid woman herself wasn’t even on board, so what did he care?

Despite this thought, Baird Lane clearly felt annoyed in his heart, annoyed at Christine White for not listening to his admonition, so he was blushing badly at the moment.

Christine White saw the low air pressure around the man and knew he was angry, and for a moment was a little timid, “Baird, can you do me a favor?”

She looked at him cautiously.

Baird Lane looked back at her, his eyes cold, “What favor?”
