Matthew had already stood up before Anna could react. "I haven't, eaten yet, let's go to lunch together," he said to Anna.

There was a dining table in the office in the corner by the window. When Anna and Matthew went in, they saw many foods on the table, all of Which were Anna's favorite. She had treated patients in the morning and had rushed there at noon, so she was starving.

Wayne said, "Sorry for being late, I just had a meeting. I heard the secretary say there was an accident just now."

"I know her personality well enough to know she won't be bullied by others so easily. Furthermore, your mom has always despised the Turners," Wayne said.

Matthew felt that Wayne should not say that. "If you don't want to eat with us, I can take my mommy out to eat," he grumbled. He appeared imposing and not at all vulnerable as he had earlier.

Anna immediately said, "Okay, stop it. Nobody is bullying me. And thank you, Matthew, for arriving on time to get me out of the awkward situation. Let's eat now."

Matthew said, shaking his head, "Dad, if you need to change your bandages right away, you should go to the hospital. The fact that you're so late shows that you're not in a hurry at all. My mother came here to eat with me, not to serve you."

"Ouch! That hurts. Are you really my son?" Wayne asked.

Anna suddenly thought of Peter's condition and asked, "So, how about Peter? The chief of the cardiology department said they were going to do a heart bypass for him. But because of his age, we can also just give him medication. What do you think?"

After a few seconds, Anna said, "Peter suffers from a heart condition. Although he has been in the hospital and he's doing fine, his physical exam revealed that he was not in good health. He will go into shock if he becomes emotional. And sometimes, he won't even wake up if it gets serious."

Neither Wayne nor Matthew responded right away. After a brief silence, Wayne handed Anna the juice and said, "We both thought it would be better to operate on him, but he didn't want to."

"Well, | quite understand him. Peter's getting older, so he's a little nervous and hesitant to make a quick decision. In fact, having this surgery can be quite dangerous" Anna nodded and echoed.
