With a confused look on his face, Aron said, "What"s wrong, Angela?"
"Mr. Gu, my hands are sore. Can I have a break?"
Before Aron could speak, Arvin answered, "I"ve heard that you are skilled in taekwondo. How can it be so easy for you to feel sore? Brother, look at her. Is that the kind of person you"ve chosen to take care of you?"
...
Aron disagreed and shook his head. "She"s just a girl. No matter how skillful she is in taekwondo, she"s still a little girl..."
Angela Si nodded in approval. "Exactly, " she said.
"It"s quite normal for a girl to be cute. Don"t be picky, my little brother!" Aron replied.
Angela Si was speechless. Cute? Her? Angela Si? Finally, her stiff upper lip moved a bit, "Are you kidding me?"
Aron turned back and asked the man operating a machine. "Hey, are you okay? Anyway, which woman actually made your mouth hurt like this? It looks quite serious."
Arvin stared coldly at Aron, "Isn"t it normal?"
The other two people in the ward got stunned by what Arvin said. It took them awhile to realize what he actually meant.
Aron nodded and said, "Yes, it"s normal. Since you are in your late twenties now. It"s quite normal for you to date a girl."
It turned out Arvin really had a girlfriend! But just like what Aron said, he was almost thirty years old now. It was absolutely normal for him to be in a relationship.
Thinking of this, Angela couldn"t help but nod to show that she was supporting Aron"s opinion.
"Angela, why are you nodding!" The coldness of Arvin"s voice gave gooseb.u.mps all over Angela"s ears. She immediately looked at his direction.
Arvin wore a sullen expression on his face. He stared at her with his indifferent but very attractive eyes.
Angela shook her head immediately. "No, no, I didn"t!"
She should be grateful to him. After all, Arvin did a good thing for her when he sent her back to the hotel last night.
And the day when she fainted at the sight of blood, it was also Arvin who carried her to the ward next door.
When she thought of this, Angela suddenly looked at him with a smile on her face, and she tried to see through his handsome face.
It seemed that Nancy was right about this. Arvin was indeed
"You"re my wife in name only, on paper only. My heart and love will never be yours."
Edward made it clear to Daisy that she was nothing to him. They were both victims of family greed -- the marriage was arranged for them.
Six years pa.s.sed. She remained quiet, gaining a reputation in the army as a tough-as-nails colonel. When she walked into his life again, Edward fell in love with this woman...
etting deeper!" She had no choice but to turn to him for help!
She showed an awkward expression as she felt grateful but disgusted at the same time.
Without saying a word, Arvin strode off. Seeing the man"s back, Angela was surprised. She cried out, "You have no conscience! I look down upon you!"
This made Arvin stopped in his tracks. He kept thinking how she could be so rude. Anyway, he had already helped her twice...
Feeling embarra.s.sed, Angela lowered her head and said, "Sorry, sorry! I didn"t mean it... I"ll never say things like that again!" After saying the words, she dared not to look at Arvin anymore, and then she ran back to the nurse station.
She realized that Arvin would have every right to think that she was the one without a conscience. After receiving his help twice, she had not expressed thanks to him. Instead, she scorned at him. She felt so sorry for what she had done!
Right at this moment, she heard the sound of footsteps getting closer. She turned around and saw Arvin standing in the doorway.
Angela thought he was angry, so she flashed a nice smile and apologized, "Sorry, Mr. Gu. I was about to thank you... Please don"t be mad at me..."
"Tweezers!"
"Huh?" Angela was confused.
Arvin walked towards her and repeated, "I need tweezers!"
They stood not far from each other, so Angela could smell the mild musky scent of him. As she smelled deeper, her mind went blank. "What are you going to do with the tweezers?"
