“Thank you for your great kindness, Auntie. Dr. Roland is excellent, but our relationship is just ordinary doctors and patients.
Maybe we'll be friends in the future. But Dr. Roland should have no feelings for me, the same of me for Dr. Roland."
Angela didn't miss the flash of reluctance under Eleanor's eyes.
Hearing this, Eleanor smiled, "That's a pity. I took you as my daughter-in-law ever since Susan talked about you.""
"Angela," Auntie Susan's face was not very good, and she said sharply, "Roland is so good to you, but you don't like him. Are you still thinking about Mr. James in your heart?"
The smile on Eleanor's face stiffened for a moment and quickly returned to its natural state.
"Mr. James is now Miss Angela's boyfriend,"
Roland stretched his hands, "Auntie Susan, even if you like Miss Angela, you can't ask me to be a male mistress, right?"
Auntie Susan stood up directly. Her face was ugly as she intended to say something. But when she saw Eleanor and Roland, she swallowed what she wanted to say, "Angela, come with me first!"
With that, she turned and went into a room.
"Fine." Angela answered, said sorry to Eleanor and Roland, and then followed Auntie Susan into the room.
Auntie Susan slammed the door shut and leaned against it with a sullen face, but she kept silence.
"A person like me is not suitable to be with Dr. Roland." Angela said. "I don't deserve him, and I don't have feelings for him."
"How many love-at-first-sights are there? I've never met my husband before we got married, but we've been doing well ever since." Auntie Susan said.
"Don't be angry."
Angela knew that Auntie Susan was doing it for her good, "It's better for everyone if I don't stay with Dr. Roland."
Dr. Roland was an adult and had his thoughts. So if he was forced to stay with her like this by Auntie Susan, it was sure he would have a grudge against Auntie Susan.
And judging from the reaction just now, Eleanor shouldn't be happy with her either.
The so-called beauty treatment took an extra half hour should just be an excuse to indirectly tell her that she didn't like her.
"You, you!" Auntie Susan poked her head with her finger. And she was almost angry with her, "You always think for others, why don't you think for yourself?"
Angela smiled and tugged her hand, "I thought about it for myself. I don't like Dr. Roland. If we are forced to live together, neither of us will be happy."
Auntie Susan poked her on the head a few more times and was so angry that she couldn't speak.
"Auntie Susan, if you keep poking me like that, my face will be marred by a scar," said Angela.
Auntie Susan came back to her sense and said without a smile,
"I didn't even use my strength; you don't even have a red mark on your head!"
"But you kicked me today, with real force," said Angela.
"Stop it!" Auntie Susan was in a hurry and didn't forget her business, "Roland said you are Mr. James’s girlfriend, what is going on?"
Angela clenched her fist, bowed her head, and said,
"... it is nothing."
"Nothing?
If it is nothing, how did James become your boyfriend?"
Auntie Susan was angry at her reply, "Angela, you treat me like an outsider, don't you?"
Angela tugged at her lips, "You can't be my insider either."
“Angela!” Auntie Susan pinched her waist and yelled at Angela.
"James has a bad temper. Auntie Susan, you don't get involved in these bad things in the future, and don't get Dr. Roland involved for my sake, it's not worth it.
It's getting late, Auntie Susan, I have to leave now."
