Chapter 74 He Cared a Great Deal for That Girl
Angela was able to prepare various kinds of strange liquid medicines. At the age of thirteen, she managed to make a liquid medicine that could cure eye disease, which could bring high efficacy in patients. This invention had made a stir in the medical field. Because she was too young, Chuck didn't want her to get too much attention. He feared that it would bring her some troubles, so he told the public that Sven invented the medicine.
Until now, recurrent disease or complications had not been found or reported among the people who used that medicine...
Angela thought about many formulas. However, Chuck didn't allow her to prepare medicines by herself. In addition, she was lazy, so she failed to invent anything later on. Now, she just threatened Randal that she could poison him which would make him mute. Without a doubt, she could definitely make Randal unable to talk for several months. They all graduated from the same medical university. Susie knew Angela's capabilities and everything that she did before. Of course, Randal had no idea of that.
Susie said slowly, "I believe that Angela is able to do that. After all, she once poisoned my laboratory rat to death."
This statement didn't make Angela angry. Instead, she smiled at Susie. "Great!"
After this, she turned away from them.
Susie didn't know why Angela reacted like that. Could it be possible that she had no idea of her ironic words?
Angela couldn't get through Arvin and she was unaware of the time when he would be finished, so she wandered slowly around the hospital.
Two hours later, she took out her phone and shared an update, "Annoyed."
She included a picture and then posted her mood right away.
It was reasonable why Angela felt annoyed. She was worried about whether Arvin liked Nita or not, or if he would follow his mom's arrangement and marry Nita.
In the operating room...
Arvin took off his gloves and mask, and asked the doctor beside him in an upfront manner, "What's the time?"
"It's already nine o'clock right now, Doctor Gu."
'Nine o'clock? Angela has been off duty for 4 hours! My phone is in the office. Did she call me?'
Thinking of this, Arvin cleaned himself as fast as he could and walked quickly to his office.
Upon looking at his phone, he found a missed call from Angela. It was about one hour ago. Although it was only one call, he knew that she wanted to contact him... Therefore, he called her back immediately. When Angela answered, he asked her in an urgent tone, "Where are you?"
It was all his fault. He forgot to tell her about the emergency before entering the operating room.
"Are you finished?" Angela waited for a long time that she almost fell asleep.
"Yes. Where are you? I'll pick you up!" Arvin entered the restroom and was about to change clothes.
Angela looked around and replied, "I'm in the park near the hospital..."
After saying it, the call was cut off. Angela's phone battery suddenly died because she was playing on her phone while she waited for Arvin.
Arvin checked his phone and became doubtful whether it was unintentional or not, so he made an attempt to call her back. Then, he found out that her phone was powered off. 'Is it really off? Or anything else...?'
Anyway, he changed his clothes as quickly as possible. Then, left his office and drove to the park near the hospital.
There were two parks near the hospital, which were at the eastern and the western areas respectively.
After driving around for twenty minutes, Arvin finally found Angela. A girl stood on the road and waved at him excitedly when she saw his car.
After the car stopped, Arvin got off his car and walked straight to Angela.
It was already late autumn. Her face and nose were red because of her thin clothing and the cold weather.
"Arvin, are you finished?" Now, when she looked at Arvin, she didn't feel annoyed. Instead, she was very happy and excited to see him.
Arvin said nothing. He took off his own coat and put it on her shoulders. As soon as his coat was put on her body, it made her feel warm. When Arvin looked at her, all he wanted was to care a great deal for her...
Right at that moment, he knew that he already fell in love with her and he wanted to care about this little girl standing in front of him.
With his coat on her, Angela felt extremely warm and she smiled sweetly at him.
Apart from that, Arvin held her numb hands to keep it warm. However, he thought that holding her hand would not be enough in keeping her warm, so he pulled her into his arms.
A cool breeze blew the leaves off the tree. A leaf slowly fell on top of Angela's head. Arvin blew it with his breath and it fell onto the ground.
He looked down and immediately found her sweet smile. "How silly you are! Why not wait for me in my office?"
Angela stared at him and protested, "I was going to, but..."
'At the moment, it might spoil the moment if I would mention Nita!'
So, she changed her tone suddenly. "It's great to enjoy the night!"
Arvin didn't say anything.
He kissed her hair and whispered, "Sorry. The operation was too urgent. I didn't have the chance to tell you."
He thought Angela might kick up a row and force him to apologize, but now... she didn't.
Angela shook her head and said casually, "Never mind. I have nothing to do anyway, so, it's not a big deal."
Chuck and Sven usually had emergency operations. She had been used to it and understood that this has become a part of being a doctor. A doctor had no right to refuse a patient. They must do everything that they could to save the patient's life.
When she waited for Arvin, she wished that she was a doctor like Arvin and Sven. Then, she would help Arvin with his operations...
Angela was a simple and honest girl. She was not a double-dealer. Arvin knew that Angela didn't blame him.
However, her consideration made Arvin feel more guilty. "Next time, go to my office."
"No. It doesn't matter!" Much to her disappointment, Angela grasped his shirt and refused his suggestion.
She was afraid someone would use the video surveillance and share it on the internet. It would bring them some unnecessary troubles again.
Arvin totally understood her worries. "Listen to me. I'll solve any troubles! Don't worry!"
Angela blinked her eyes when she heard this. 'He means... he would solve the problem for her like the last one?'
"Don't think too much! Since you have chosen to... make friends with me, you have to believe in me!" Actually, he meant more in his words.
Angela had an instinct that Arvin meant more in what he said. However, she had no idea if it was true. She nodded her head and promised, "Okay."
"Get on the car!" He held her shoulders as he walked her to the car. Later on, they left together.
Meanwhile, in the house of Gu family...
When Teresa was reading in the study room, her phone started to ring. She looked at her WeChat and checked the message.
Taking off her reading glasses, she immediately opened the message. As she looked closely at her phone, her face suddenly changed when she saw the pictures.
In the lamplight, a man and a woman were hugging each other closely. The man was her son, Arvin, and... Angela.
Right at that moment, Teresa felt sure that the woman in Arvin's apartment must be Angela!
She rubbed her painful temple and wondered, 'Angela... How should I deal with that girl?'☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
