Divorce Clock Ticking (Kenneth and Angela)

Chapter 64

"Of course, Leif. You know. I never lie."

Leif gave her a withering look and said angrily, "You always lie to me. If it weren't for treating Keh's legs this time, would you come back?"

Angela stuck her tongue out guiltily. "Isn't it because I didn't inherit the mantle of you that I dare not come back?"

"You know it, huh? Then when will come back and inherit?"

Angela didn't speak.

Joseph changed the subject. "Leif, let's not talk about unhappy things. What are we going to eat tonight?"

Leif snorted, "We eat roast chicken, and you only have salad."

Angela said sweetly, "Leif, you won't just give me a salad, right?

"Stop talking nonsense. Laura is in the kitchen. Go to help her."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Seeing Angela skipping to the kitchen, Leif couldn't help but sigh, looked at Joseph, and asked, "How is Angela doing now?"

When the Lewis family came to her seven years ago, Angela was learning medical skills from Leif. She was the most talented and the hardest- working among all Leif's apprentices. Because she was the youngest, her seniors all doted on her.

Joseph remained silent for a moment and said in a low voice, "Not good. She doesn't laugh as much as before."

Leif snorted coldly, "Humph, I knew it! The Lewis family is inhuman. They cruelly left Angela at the door of the welfare home because of a prophecy. "Later, they brought her back just to let her donate bone marrow to the daughter they raised. They are simply heartless beasts."

Joseph comforted Leif. "Don't get angry, Leif. It's all in the past."

Leif waved his hand. "Forget it, let's not mention this. Someone will deal with the Lewis family."

Joseph was surprised. "Who is it?"

"The Collins family in Willard."

If the Collins knew Angela's grievances over the years, they would not let go of the Lewis family.

Joseph looked shocked. How could Angela be related to the Collins family?

But seeing that Leif didn't intend to continue, he didn't ask anymore.

"Leif, I have recorded many difficult and complicated diseases in the past few years. I want to ask you for advice."

Joseph took out his notebook for recording complicated diseases and handed it to Leif with a guilty look. He was afraid that Leif would smash the notebook on his head and scold him for being too dumb.

But Leif was in a good mood today and didn't scold him. He picked out a few typical ones and told Joseph, then threw the notebook back to him.

"You can get the analysis in my study for the rest of the questions. Find the book and read it yourself."

Joseph said, "Okay, thank you, Leif."

Laura Brouwer was Leif's granddaughter. In the kitchen, she and Angela chatted while cooking.

Laura looked at Angela with envy. "Angela, I really want to go out. But my grandpa said that I can go out when I am 20."

Angela smiled, "Leif is doing it for your own good. Although it's fun outside, there are also many bad guys. He is afraid that you will be bullied."

"I can come to you and Joseph. With your protection, no one dares bully me."Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Angela couldn't help but touch her nose, saying, "Only two years are remaining, and they'll pass in an eyeblink. Besides, Leif no longer accepts apprentices. If you are not here to accompany him, he will be lonely."

Laura said, "He is not lonely. He said that after I leave, he will live a leisurely life and do whatever he wants."

"Leif lied to you. If you leave, he doesn't even have anyone to talk to. How pitiful!"

Laura frowned and sighed, "Then he can return to Willard. Anyway, many people hope him to go back."

"Some people hope he goes back, but some people don't."

Upon hearing this, Laura asked Angela with a puzzled look, "Why? Grandpa has always treated patients. Shouldn't others respect him?" Angela smiled, "You'll understand when you're older."

"Alright."

While the two were chatting, Leif walked into the kitchen with a straight face and asked, "Is the food prepared? Don't chat and chat. The roast chicken will be burnt."

Angela knew Leif was just looking for trouble, so she smiled helplessly. He became more childish as he got older.

But she didn't know how long they could live such a relaxing life.

After all, Leif had to return to Willard one day. Perhaps he would return to Willard when Laura could be independent and care for her.

Seeing Angela and Laura cooking seriously, Leif nodded with satisfaction and left with his hands behind his back.

As he walked out of the kitchen door, Angela and Laura looked at each other and burst out laughing.

The next day, Leif let Angela and Joseph deal with the patients, claiming that he wanted to see if their medical skills had deteriorated in the past few years, but in fact, he just wanted to be lazy.

Angela and Joseph had to treat hundreds of patients every day, and Laura took the medicine according to the prescriptions they wrote. One week before they were to leave, Leif finally let them rest.

After reading the diagnosis records and prescriptions they wrote, Leif couldn't help but nod with satisfaction. "Good. You didn't forget what you learned before."

Angela asked, "Leif, have you treated so many patients every day these past few years?"

She remembered that Leif had made a rule in the past. He only treated twenty patients a day, so some people who came to seek treatment could only wait until a year later.

Leif touched his beard and smiled, "No. The patients you treated these days were the appointment patients for the next two months. You treated them for me, then I can take two months off."

Angela was stunned. "Are you kidding?"

It was said that the mysterious doctor, Leif, had a bad temper and often shut his clinic when displeased. But if others ever learned about his true nature, they would be shocked.

Thinking of being able to rest for the next two months, Leif smiled, "Of course, if you come to see me every two months, I can retire."

Angela and Joseph looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

"If we come back every two months, you will think we are annoying."

Leif nodded in agreement. "Right. Go to pack your things. You have to set off tomorrow morning."

When Angela was packing her clothes, Laura came to her with a box and said, "Angela, Leif asked me to give this to you."

Angela took the box and opened it. There was a precious herbal medicine inside.

"Angela, Leif said that this is the last one you have planted. If you encounter an emergency in the future, you must come back to him. Don't make your own decisions and plant this herbal medicine secretly."

Seeing Laura's solemn expression, Angela nodded. "I understand."

"Well, keep packing up. I'll go."

After Laura left, Angela put the box away and finally breathed a sigh of relief. With this herbal medicine, Keh's legs could be cured.

In the evening, Leif cooked a table of dishes for Angela and Joseph and even took out the wine that had been collected for many years. Angela and Joseph drank a few drinks with Leif, and Leif left on the excuse that he was drunk.

Laura's eyes filled with tears. She looked at them and said, "Grandpa can't bear to leave you. Although he didn't tell you how happy he has been, I know he is thrilled to have you back."

Angela and Joseph were also reluctant to leave. After all, they had lived here for several years, and Leif had become a family to them.

But no matter how reluctant they were to leave, they had to go.

When Angela and Joseph left the next morning, Leif did not come out to see them off.

Angela and Joseph looked at Leif's door for a while before leaving.

They felt a little heavy on the way back to Lavinia and remained silent.

As soon as they arrived at Lavinia Airport and got out of the car, they were stopped by several men in black.

"Ms. Lewis, Mr. Harrison, please come with us."
