Chapter 946 Who's Calling (Part Two)

"Wait for me in the underground parking lot. I will reach there in ten minutes," Lawrence replied, as he

stepped on the gas.

Hearing that, Aria basked in delight. She said gladly, "Okay. See you soon."

Lawrence ended the call. He grasped the steering wheel with hands glee shining in his eyes. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Aria stood in the parking lot waiting anxiously. As Lawrence's car appeared in her sight, she waved her

hand at him cheerfully.

Lawrence drove in her direction and parked his car as soon as he could.

As he got out, he made his way towards his girlfriend. Coming close to her, he glanced deep into her

eyes.

"I've missed you so much, Larry," Aria blurted out. Losing all control on her emotions, she stretched out

and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Instead of replying, Lawrence softly pressed his lips on hers.

After a long time, Lawrence let go of her. His passionate kiss expressed how much he had missed her.

Looking at Lawrence dotingly, Aria said, "Although you have left me just yesterday, I feel as if we have

been seperated for a month."

He cupped her face gently, and said calmly, "Perhaps we won't be able to meet every day."

"Have you been busy recently?" Aria asked.

"Yes. I have to handle the stuff in the company. Besides, my parents just came back. They might need

me at any time," Lawrence answered. At present, he thought that he had little time to keep Aria

company. He had no intention of introducing her to his family now.

"I see," Aria replied in a low voice. She understood that Lawrence needed to spend more time with his

family. But at the thought she couldn't meet him frequently, she couldn't help but feel upset.

"Are you angry at me?" Lawrence asked. He could tell by her expression that she was slightly

disappointed.

"No, I am not. I feel a little depressed because I have to live alone in the apartment," Aria replied

frankly. She hid nothing from Lawrence for he knew all about her flaws and nature. "We usually live

together. Even when we fought, we still lived together. But you have moved out suddenly and I don't

know when you will come back. I feel insecure," she added with grief.

Lawrence knew her thoughts. 'She has been accustomed to having me by her side. Even I hate to

leave her. It must be hard for her to take, ' he mused.

"I will find an opportunity and tell my parents about us. If they agree, we can live together. This way, we

will be able to meet every day," Lawrence responded.

"Really?" Aria exclaimed, her eyes shining with excitement.

"It's true. Believe me," Lawrence reassured her. 'Even though I can't give her any promise, I will try my

best to persuade my family to accept her and thus make her happy, ' he resolved.

"Oh, Larry," Aria said as she gave him a tight hug.

The couple spent some more time in the parking lot and then parted their ways.

Hand in hand, Greg and Violet exited one of the former's sister hospital. The two then swiftly moved

towards Greg's car.

Greg opened the car door for Violet. After helping her enter the car, he walked around the car towards

the other side, and took the driver's seat. Looking at the files in her hands, Violet gushed with an

expectant expression, "Now you have got all the documents. Do you have other plans this morning?"

"Yes, I have," Greg replied instantly. "I have got a full schedule this morning. I don't even have time to

take a break."

"So you have no time to spend with me?" Violet said, leering at Greg. As her husband didn't reply, she

continued, "Now that you don't have time, I will go and visit my friend."

"You can't go anywhere," Greg opposed. Looking fiercely at Violet, he instructed, "You stay in my office.

When I'm done with my work, we will go to Uncle Wilson's house."

"It's so boring to wait in your office alone," Violet grumbled, pursing her lips. She could just imagine

how dull it would be to wait the whole day in Greg's office.

"Who said that you will be all alone?" Greg corrected, "I will work there, and you can give me

company."

With a snort, Violet pursed her lips in displeasure. She then turned her gaze away from Greg and

peered outside the window.

Greg raised a corner of his lips silently. 'What should I do with her?' he thought.

As they reached the XS Hospital, they went straight to Greg's office. On the way, Violet studied the

ambiance around them.

"Good morning, Doctor Greg," one nurse greeted as she paused.

Greg nodded at her as a sign of replying to her greeting.

Violet followed closely behind Greg. As they kept moving, she observed the passers-by, including

nurses, several patients and their family members. They were all staring at Greg. 'Are you taking

pleasure in admiring his face?' she wondered.

On the way, she found most people who were greeting Greg were women, ranging from young, female

nurses to female doctors.

As they emerged into Greg's office, Violet couldn't hold back her anger anymore. She strode to her

husband's chair and sat down on it. Focusing her gaze on Greg who was putting on his white coat, she

grilled, "Isn't it a torture to be surrounded by so many hot girls and yet concentrate on your job?"

"What makes you say that?" Greg countered just to make her feel jealous. "I think it's a very good

thing. I can see so many pretty girls every day."

"Oh, really?" Violet was too angry now and she decided not to utter another word.

"Wow," Greg exclaimed. With a sly smile, he approached her slowly. He stopped and took a seat

opposite his wife. Gazing at Violet sitting in his chair, he teased, "When did my Queen become so

jealous?"

"What? You must be kidding. Why would I get envious? I am okay with all that. But be careful that their

boyfriends do not get back at you," Violet snapped, turning her face away.

Violet's phone in her handbag vibrated, which drew her attention. After picking up her bag, she took it

out. When she saw the number on the screen, she put on a bright smile on her face.

"Whose call is it?" Greg asked alertly. Now it was his turn to feel nervous.
