They were laughing and cracking jokes when suddenly Arvin bounded out of the elevator, followed closely by Kent and Adam.
Lucy and Xenia had been happy up until they saw Arvin and his retinue, and then they became weak and ran away as fast as they could.
Angela was left alone; she scratched her head in perplexity, and then walked towards them, "Hi, Dr. Gu, Kent, Adam!"
Kent smiled at her. Adam nodded his head politely to respond to her greeting. But Arvin just looked deep into her eyes.
Angela wondered whether he was mad. After all, she had pushed his cousin into the lake.
"Well… It was Baron who had…" Angela tried to defend herself, as she felt quite stressful when Arvin kept deathly silent.
Arvin looked at her; she was clearly nervous. So he comforted her, "Nice job!"
What? This was a shocking response to hear from the director of the hospital. At first, Angela kept her head down because of guilt. But when she heard this, she suddenly raised her head and looked at him, with her eyes shining brightly.
"What did you say?" Did she hear him wrong? Arvin was… praising her?
Arvin smiled, "Let"s get in there, how about it?"
They walked into the sixth ward together. The ward was already filled with people. They circled Baron, who was lying on the hospital bed, showing great concern for his conditions.
Around the bed were Zack and his wife Susanna, Teresa, Haley, Parker, Tessa, two nurses and two doctors. One of the two doctors was Nita… She was the director of Obstetrics, so it was absurd for her to be here right now.
Haley was helping Baron drink a bowl of ginger tea when Angela came in. When Baron saw her, he immediately pushed Haley away and shouted abuse at Angela, "b.i.t.c.h, how dare you have the nerve to push me into the lake! Do you want to die? I will teach you… Arvin, you are here."
His angry abuse vanished in Arvin"s commanding presence.
Seeing Baron recoiling, Haley put down
Jean Wen sacrificed herself for family interests. Before her husband divorced her, she made every effort to please him.
"You are inexperienced in bed," he said coldly.
"You! Give that land to my family, or I won"t agree to divorce," Jean replied furiously.
"Fine. It is exactly what I am thinking about," he sneered.
ron was Haley and Parker"s favorite child. If Angela didn"t admit her mistake and apologize to Baron, Haley wouldn"t leave the matter at that.
But Arvin wasn"t an easygoing person, so she had to persuade Angela to apologize.
What she hadn"t expected was that Arvin should treat her as other people. He took hold of Angela tightly in his hand and didn"t allow Angela to leave him.
He was persistent, "Mom, you can talk to her after Kent comes back."
Teresa was speechless, "…"
Everyone else in this room was also out of words, "…"
Hiding behind Arvin, Angela looked up at Arvin"s back with admiration. How could he be so handsome and charming!
She felt that she was in love with him each pa.s.sing day…
Soon, Kent brought two men into the ward.
Baron was anxious when he saw them. "Why are you here? f.u.c.k off!"
Kent brought Baron"s stooges here.
When they got in, you could see bruises on their faces. It seemed that… they"d been beaten.
The one who wore a colorful jacket gave Baron a glance, "Baron, we don"t want to come here either…" They resisted speaking the truth at first. But several people surrounded them and forced them to speak.
Kent told the nurses and the doctor to leave, and then turned to the two men he had brought here, "You may speak now."
