Her great ardor was destroyed by his indifference, "I haven't seen you for several days... I... I... miss you!"
Arvin lifted his right arm. Angela thought he would hug her. However, he didn't. Instead, he rubbed his eyebrows, "Don't come here if there's nothing important to report. One week later, I have to run for the Director of the hospital. Don't bring me any troubles!"
Angela was greatly shocked once she heard this! The shyness and excitement on her face disappeared immediately.
Suddenly, she found... Arvin didn't like her anymore!
When Angela entered Arvin's office, Nita had already gotten the news.
Therefore, Nita went to Arvin's office and knocked on the door when Angela was still standing there with a broken heart.
Originally, the door of Arvin's office was half closed, but now Nita appeared in the room soon after she knocked.
"Arvin... Angela? Why are you here?" Nita almost leapt out of her skin when she saw Angela.
Angela glanced at her and said nothing. Instead, Arvin said, "She's reporting her work in the research department." After this, he went to his seat and sat down directly in front of his desk.
"I... am not!"
"Angela, I got your idea. Go back to your work. I have notified the research department."
Angela was shocked again!
'No! Something was wrong! What did Arvin mean?'
Nita smiled listening to this exchange. She stepped closer to Arvin and said, "My mum is going to cook dinner tonight. She wants you to have dinner with my family."
'Nita's mum is going to cook dinner for Arvin?'
Angela looked at them in surprise. Finally, she understood everything when she saw Nita's attitude towards him.
She rushed to Arvin at once and shouted, "Big wing, please don't do that! I'll cook for you!"
The room became silent. Two women were waiting for Arvin's answer.
However, he glanced up and said, "I'll go to Nita's home tonight. You can go back now. Don't forget your work at the research department tomorrow."
Arvin's answer about the research department told Angela something was up. "Do you think I really care about the work in the research department?!"
Arvin put down the documents and said coldly, "It totally depends on you! Now go and do your job."
"No! I'm not going to work in the research department! Arvin, tell me why you are going to Nita's home!" She wouldn't leave until she had some answers.
This change in Arvin's attitude was unacceptable.
At that moment, Arvin seemed estranged.
And perforce, Angela was terribly upset.
"Angela, my mum likes Arvin very much. It's quite normal to ask him to have dinner with us. For example, Arvin's mum also likes me. We always have dinner together."
Nita's words hurt.
Angela always knew that Teresa didn't like her. However, she liked Nita very much.
Angela looked at Arvin. Her sadness made Arvin feel terrible. At last, he stood up and went to her, "I'm a little busy these days. I'll contact you when I'm free."
