Chapter 62
In the VIP ward, Kate Bishop was sitting on the bed with her face slightly pale. The doctor had given her an overall examination.
Mrs. Bishop immediately grabbed the chance to ask the doctor, “Doctor, how is my daughter? Is she all right?”
The doctor paused for a while and said “Mrs. Bishop, don’t worry. Miss Kate is indeed frightened. It is not serious…”Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“What do you mean by ‘it is not serious’!” Mrs. Bishop always took Kate as a treasure. She cried hurriedly, “Kate has a weak heart since she was a child. How can she suffer such a blow? If anything happens to my daughter, your hospital will also be tore down!”
The doctor did not dare to offend these rich and powerful people. “Mrs. Bishop, I really did not figure out what was wrong with Miss Kate. If you are worried, you can go to other hospital for more examination.”
“Is that your attitude?” Mrs. Bishop said coldly, “My daughter is now the fiancee of Mr. Ali. If anything happens to her, the Ali Enterprises will not spare your hospital…”
The door of the ward opened from the outside.
Zayn came in dressed up, tall and slim. “It’s okay since you had checked it. You are free to go, doctor.”
“Yes, yes, yes.”
The doctor was at a loss when he heard the words of Zayn. And then he hurried out because he didn’t want to get into any trouble.
The TV in the ward was on, reporting the news about the press conference of the Ali Enterprises this evening.
“According to the reporter back from the press conference of the Ali Enterprises, Miss Kate admitted that she had known Mr. Ali for a long time, and she also took the shares of the Bishop Family that were originally Miss Chloe’s…”
Kate’s father, Finn Bishop was listening to the TV with a rather twisted face!
Zayn turned off the TV directly. “If you have nothing else to say, you can go back first. I will take care of Kate.”
Kate’s eyes reddened. She held Zayn immediately when he was coming over to her, she said, “Zayn…”
Zayn looked at Kate who was holding him, the expression on his handsome face was difficult to understand.
Next to them, Mrs. Bishop and Finn quarreled again!
“Finn Bishop!” Mrs. Bishop shouted, “I told you not to let Chloe attend the press conference. Now, you are happy with your biological daughter being reported, aren’t you? Everyone is talking about Kate’s fault. You are the one to blame-”
“Shut up!” Finn turned around and pointed at Kate. “why did you say that Chloe splashed you wine when I asked you? Kate, why did you do that?”
Kate didn’t say anything. She buried her face in the chest of Zayn and sobbed gently.
It seemed that she was the one who felt the most wronged tonight.
“Didn’t you say that you fell in love with Mr. Ali after he and Chloe broke up?” Finn looked at Zayn and seemed to be tired to take on a kind expression. “Then how do you explain what’s in the recording pen of Chloe
tonight? Have you known each other and been together for a long time?”
“Finn Bishop!” Mrs. Bishop said, “It’s up to them young people. Why do you care so much? Now Mr. Ali and Kate have been engaged!”
“Mr. Ali.” Finn directly asked Zayn, “Have you been with Kate for a long time? Did you keep it a secret from Chloe? Now it’s you that have done something wrong to Chloe!”
Zayn’s lips twitched. “Mrs. Bishop was right. This is about me and Kate. President Bishop, you don’t have to ask.”
“I don’t need to ask?” Finn said, “I thought that Chloe cheated on you so I must keep my words and allowed the Bishop Limited join the Ali Enterprises. Now you…”
Finn Bishop pointed at Kate, who was holding Zayn. His embarrassment turned to anger, as if he had seen what had happened between them.
“Didn’t you say that Chloe cheated on you?”
“She really did.” Zayn said, “She did have an affair at our engagement ceremony.”
Finn said, “But last time, Chloe said that she was drugged…”
“Anyway, I was not the person who gave her the medicine.” Zayn looked at David sharply with firmness. “So the Bishop Family will still join the Ali Enterprises, won’t it?”
Finn pointed to Zayn and Kate, and then turned back to point at Mrs. Bishop. He was so angry that he couldn’t speak.
In the end, he flung his sleeves and went out.
Mrs. Bishop looked at Kate and Michael. She forced a smile to Zayn. “Mr. Ali, I believe there must be some misunderstanding about what happened tonight. Kate is not like that. You can have a good talk. I believe that you can handle the news in the media.”
Mrs. Bishop seemed to understand the Ali Enterprises’s power very well, so she wanted Kate instead of Chloe
to marry Zayn.
Outside the ward, as soon as Mrs. Bishop had came out, she saw Finn standing there with a dark face.
Finn looked back at her and said, “Mr. Ali said that it was not him that drugged Chloe. Rose, was it you?”
Mrs. Bishop surely would not admit it. She pursed her lips and said, “What are you talking about? Now the media has gone to Chloe’s side. You don’t believe me and Kate, do you?”
“Who else can it be except you?” Finn was very angry. “Didn’t you want Chloe to leave the Bishop Family all the time?”
“You! “Mrs. Bishop was also angry. “I indeed wanted her to leave the Bishop Family because of what happened between Eathen and her. But what evidence does she have to prove that I drugged her?”
“If I remember correctly, Alfred said that the wine Chloe drank that night was given by you.” Finn’s face trembled with anger.
“Alfred was always on Chloe’s side in the Bishop Family!” Mrs. Bishop said, “How can you believe his words?”
“Then why can I believe what you said?”
“I am your wife, and Kate is your biological daughter.” Mrs. Bishop said confidently, “You don’t even believe your closest relative. You actually choose to believe Chloe, an adopted daughter?”
Finn pointed at her and said, “You-”
“Finn, speaking of this, I would like to ask you something.” Mrs. Bishop raised her head and looked at her husband. “I have seen how good you are to Chloe these years. She is only an adopted daughter. But you gave her shares as many as Kate, sent her to a famous university, and even let her enter the company. You treated her better than your biological daughter…”
Looking at the change of expression on Finn’s face, Mrs. Bishop said, “I really doubt it if you adopted Chloe. Did you have an illegitimate child with a woman outside?”
“Ridiculous!” Finn roared. “Chloe was adopted by me from an orphanage. Don’t talk nonsense!”
Finn no longer cared about his wife and left the hospital angrily.
It didn’t matter if Zayn and Kate had known each other for a long time. The Bishop Limited had announced in front of the media that they had joined the Ali Enterprises and it couldn’t change in a short time.
In the ward, it became quiet again after Mrs. Bishop went out.
Zayn smiled lightly and sat in front of the bed. He looked at Kate and said, “Your mother is quite good at calculation. Doesn’t she want to rely on me to handle the mess for you?”
“Zayn.” Kate’s soft, jade-like hand covered his hand. “What happened tonight….”
Zayn sat in front of her bed and said, “I’m waiting for your explanation.” Kate’s lips moved.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly.
“Although I have said that I will teach Chloe a lesson. Zayn frowned and looked at Kate’s beautiful and pale face. “But it’s between me and her. It has nothing to do with you, Kate. Why did you do that?”
Kate put her fingers away.
She thought to herself, “Why does it have nothing to do with me?”
She pursed her pale lips and said, “Zayn, I admit being too imputuous. Don’t be angry.”
Zayn didn’t say anything. He took out a cigarette and wanted to light it. Thinking that Kate was a patient, he put it down again.
“Chloe, she…” Kate thought for a moment. “She told me that she attended the press conference tonight in order to congratulate us in front of the media and gradually eliminate her negative news.”
“So?”
Zayn looked at her.
He tacitly approved that Kate and Mrs. Bishop could drug Chloe because he was angry with Chloe.
He hated that Chloe pretended to be Kate and approached him. She took advantage of his feelings.
“She said that after her negative news disappeared,” Kate said, “She would tell the media that we had been together before you broke up. She wanted to take revenge on us.”
Zayn’s eyes narrowed, “…”
Did Chloe say so?
“That’s why I said I won’t let her regain her reputation.” Kate gently put her jade-like hand on the back of Zayn’s. “Zayn, I wanted to apply some pitiful methods to let the media continue to defame her, so that no one would believe what she said.”
Zayn didn’t say anything. He clenched his fists, and his sinister face was covered with a thin layer of anger.
“Zayn, it’s all my fault.” Kate looked pale and weak. “I didn’t expect that Chloe was so cunning and came to the press conference with a recording pen…
Speaking of this, Kate’s eyes trembled again. “No, she did it on purpose. She deliberately said those words to make me anxious, and then recorded what I said with the pen.”
Kate’s face became paler, her slender hands clenched, and a trace of hatred flashed in her clear eyes.
She had always believed that Chloe was not thoughtful. Chloe couldn’t defeat her When she recalled that she had been fooled by Chloe tonight, her face darkened.
“Don’t worry about Chloe in the future.” Zayn stood up all of a sudden.
Kate quickly grabbed his hand. “Zayn, you can’t just watch Chloe fool me like this. She must have hooked up with Aman. That’s why he was watching me and Chloe on the second floor of the banquet hall…
Speaking of Aman, Zayn’s expression changed again. “I said I would deal with it.”
When Kate saw that Zayn was angry, she suddenly pressed her chest and cried, “Zayn… Ah! It hurts!”
When he turned around, his expreesion changed. “Kate!”
In the luxurious Ninth Dragon Villa of the Shallow Bay.
The next day.
Aman sat on the open balcony of the villa, drinking his morning tea. The sun was shining around him. He wore a white shirt and a vest, looking extremely elegant!
Bucky put down the red teapot and asked him, “Young Master, would you like me to wake up the Young Madam?”
“No need.” Aman’s voice was faint. “It doesn’t matter whether she comes or not.”
The golden sun shone on his breathtakingly beautiful side face, with sword-shaped eyebrows and brown eyes. He was peerlessly indifferent.
