Chapter 142 Someone Fell into The Water
Chapter 142 Someone Fell into The Water
Her mother had to support her once she found out that Angela had fallen in love with Arvin
wholeheartedly.
But her father, on the other hand, only wanted her to stay away from him! Oh damn the fates that be!
The only thing she knew clearly in all this pandemonium was that anything her father said was
supposedly for her own benefit.
Chuck cast a glance over to his wife, who staring eagerly at him, and responded to Angela with a
vehement growl to his usual soft-spoken tenor. "Let me tell you the truth. I'm calling because your
mother asked me to do so! But fine! I won't care a fig about you any more! Don't ask me for my help if
you get into trouble someday! So long!"
Chuck slammed down the phone quickly; Daisy didn't have time to take in what had happened.
She inquired, "Hey! It was your idea to call Angela! I had nothing to do with it, and couldn't have
stopped you if I tried. Why would you tell her something like that?"
Chuck didn't answer her question and just murmured, "Our daughter is a grown woman now. Or so she
thinks. And she takes that to mean, never listen to her elders anymore. No, I won't let this happen! I'll
call Arvin right now!"
Arvin had been lucky to meet Chuck at the airport that day because under no circumstances was it
permitted to board an airplane with dangerous medical equipment like scalpels.
Were he to have taken his scalpels, that's a different story, and Arvin may not be alive today to tell it.
Daisy couldn't speak for a moment, the fervor of it hit her all in one go. But then, mustering her
strength, she said, "Don't call him! What are you going to tell Arvin? Remember that they're not
engaged yet! Who do you think you are? Are you his father-in-law?
Chuck had nothing to say.
Chuck was persuaded by Daisy and he gave up the idea of calling Arvin.
As noon approached, Angela heard that their hospital would hold a ball to celebrate Arvin's
inauguration. The employees of the R and D Department were encouraged to prepare a performance.
'How to prepare a performance?' Angela felt ridiculous about this idea. She thought it much better to
give Arvin a gift at night.
After lunch, Angela wandered around the yard of the hospital. Seeing the sun in the sky, somehow she
felt frustrated.
She got restless every time she thought about her uncertain relationship with Arvin.
She had never imagined such a strange relationship between her and Arvin. They were not a couple
yet but they had done something close to being a couple.
Uh... How was it possible to put a label on their relationship properly? Yes! She got an idea. They were
closer than friends but not as close as a couple.
She believed that this state perfectly reflected her relationship with Arvin.
"Angela!" A strange voice interrupted Angela's reverie.
Then she saw several men running towards her. The leading one was Baron whom she had just met
last night!
'He must come for me with malicious intention, ' Angela guessed.
Pretending that she hadn't noticed him, Angela stood up and walked towards the R and D Department
in a fast pace.
"Wait! Stop, Angela!" Baron was annoyed to be ignored.
But Angela didn't care about his importunes and kept moving forward. Angela's manner infuriated
Baron.
"Angela, I will catch you and throw you to the lake!" He threatened her.
How could Baron be so hateful! He always harassed Angela like some puny fly.
"Stop Angela! If you dare take another step, I swear I'll squash you!" Angela stopped at once, with
Baron close on her heels coming to a screeching halt too.
Angela secretly cast a scornful glance at Baron, then she restrained her emotion and smiled with
recalcitrance at him. "You're an animal, you know that?"
"What animal?" Baron demanded of her rudely. Strange, he mused. 'Angela is usually not so usually
free-spirited, but today she's acting as if she can walk high on air and treat everyone else like garbage.
That is so unfair, he wondered in confusion. Why does she think she can treat me this way?'
Angela told him in a contemptuous tone. "The fly!"
Then she walked forward as if to accost him.
Baron felt humiliated because nobody had ever dared to speak with him in such an insolent manner.
He lost his temper and commanded his two assistants to follow Angela. "Quickly! Catch her and throw
her in the lake right now!"
One assistant reluctantly told him, "Boss, not here! This is Angela's place of work. And Angela is your
cousin's girlfriend. I'm afraid..."
Recollecting Arvin's cold face and bad temper, he couldn't help trembling like a dog with diarrhea.
Baron snarled and grabbed his assistant's head abruptly, commanding, "Just do as I order! Don't worry
about him!"
"Fine. Let's go and catch her!" The two men ran fast towards Angela.
Hearing the sound of the hastening footsteps, Angela stopped suddenly, which was unexpected for the
men.
"What are you going to do?" Angela demanded of them. 'Baron is also a member of the Gu Family like
Arvin, so how could he be so different to Arvin? Maybe that's because he only shares a little blood of
the Gu Family?' Angela wondered.
The first man, who was wearing a colorful coat, told her, "Our boss asked us to throw you in the lake!"
Angela sneered, "Look around you. Who are all these people you see on the road?"
"They are just ordinary people!" This man answered in puzzlement.
"Exactly, ordinary people like you and me. So how dare you try to catch me with so many people
present?"
Angela had never expected that Baron could be so shameless. Baron told her arrogantly, "Of course
they can't catch you! But I can! This hospital is my family's possession and nobody will dare stop me
here, no matter what I wish to do with you!"
Angela couldn't bear his harassment but she didn't want to cause trouble for the hospital, so she was
ready to call Arvin.
"What are you going to do?" Baron realized that she wanted to ask for Arvin's help as she took out her
cellphone. He grabbed Angela's cellphone without a care.
Looking at her phone, Baron knew that she was going to call someone called Big Wing. But he was
confused. Who was this Big Wing?
"Give my phone back! Otherwise I'll beat you!" Angela warned him and stretched out her right hand.
Baron wasn't concentrating on her warning. "Throw Angela in the lake now!" He commanded. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Then the two men came forward and were ready to execute his order.
Angela realized that it was time to take action.
In a flash, she had knocked out the two assistants before Baron noticed what happened.
Then she grasped Baron's ears tightly and dragged him to the bank of the lake without concerning
herself with his crying and moaning for mercy.
According to Arvin's plans, this artificial lake was going to be filled with dirt and sand.
Angela got her phone back from Baron's hand, then she walked behind him and kicked him heavily in
the direction of the lake. "Go to the lake!" she shouted at him as he fell backwards with nothing to save
the fall.
Baron gave a sharp scream; the lake was aroused by huge waves, and Baron was seen no more
floating above the surface. Angela indifferently put her cellphone in her pocket, then she shouted,
"Someone fell into the water! Help! There is a man jumping into the lake to commit suicide!"
Hearing her scream, the workers who were operating excavators jumped into the water at once to save
Baron, who was sinking further into the grainy water.
Angela left when she saw someone came to save him.
Later on, Angela was informed by her director to go to the sixth ward of the VVIP Department.
She had figured out what this was about before she arrived.
As she came to the VVIP Department, Angela gave a big hug to Lucy and Xenia.
