Chapter 142 Confuse Relationship
Phillip straightened his back, grabbed her shoulder, and sat face to face with Ann.
"What about you? I'm not a good boyfriend, I'm too aggressive in everything, and I got a lot of family
issues. You will have to face gossips and troubles more than you can imagine. Do you feel tired?"
Ann looked at him in a daze, her eyes slightly turning red. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
She kept asking herself the same question. 'Am I tired?'
Although Ann was scared and nervous, she never felt tired when she was with Phillip.
A hint of hope flashed across Phillip's eyes as he saw Ann shake her head.
He smiled happily and pulled Ann into his arms.
"So, from now on, stop blaming yourself. It's me who dragged you into this. I'm the one who should
figure this out."
...
Phillip told Ann that William was only temporarily unconscious.
But Ann still felt anxious and asked Phillip to stay up at his bedside. Ann went to consult the doctor
about William's health.
The doctor told Ann that William was in poor condition.
His heart disease had reached stage three, and he was already in bad shape because he had spent
many years in prison.
After he experienced several heart attacks, the success rate of William's surgery was low.
If they chose to go with conservative therapy, William could live like a normal person for some time.
Ann ran out of the doctor's office and leaned against the wall that was as cold as ice, but she was
numb.
"Jenny calls you sister, and you take it seriously. How old are you? Three? Look at you. You're a jinx
born with an evil spirit. Stay away from Jenny!"
"Look, she is Jenny. I heard that her mother left her for a rich man when she was born. My
grandmother said that pretty women are unreliable. Like mother, like daughter."
"You are a jinx! Your mom left you for another man, and your dad is in the hospital because of you!"
Ann closed his eyes, shook his head slightly, and tried to put those painful memories behind.
She got back on her feet and returned to the ward.
...
Her phone suddenly vibrated in her pocket.
Ann was hesitant when she took out her phone and saw the name on it.
She pursed her lips and answered the phone.
"Mrs. Moore..."
"Where are you? I have to talk to you!" Melinda sounded commanding and even a little urgent.
Ann slightly squeezed her fingers.
She knew what Melinda wanted to talk about.
"Sorry, I'm busy now. Can we talk over the phone?"
"No, this is very important. It's about Philip, William, you, and me. I must ensure it is flawless! If you're
busy, I can come over. Tell me where you're."
Melinda sounded serious and determined.
'What exactly is it? How is it related to four persons?"
Ann was confused, but at this moment, she felt butterflies in her stomach.
She didn't know what Melinda was going to say, so she was nervous.
"Then... let's meet at the restaurant next to the Harmony Hospital."
Melinda arrived at the restaurant earlier than expected.
Ann sat opposite Melinda, and she politely refused Melinda's invitation for a meal.
"Sorry, Mrs. Moore, I can't stay for a long time."
Although Phillip was in the hospital with her father, Ann was still worried. William disapproved of Ann's
relationship with Phillip.
She was afraid that William would be angry if he woke up and saw Phillip.
Melinda did not insist because that was not her purpose.
"Your father was in the hospital again?" she asked casually.
Ann was stunned, pursed her lips, and nodded.
Melinda was no longer the amiable and beautiful woman Ann used to know, so Ann had no intention of
telling her about William's condition.
Melinda's lips curled into a meaningful smile. "William was in poor condition when he was young. He
has gone through a lot these years, and now, he becomes a burden!"
Ann looked at Melinda with confusion.
"Mrs. Moore, what does my father have to do with you?"
