Anthea looked up in surprise and saw the door of the ward being pushed open. A boy in school uniform came in.
"Leonardo?¹¹
As she spoke, Leonardo had already walked to her bed. He threw the bag casually on the sofa and then sat down lazily on the side of the bed. "How are you? You didn't go to school yesterday morning. I thought you skipped classes, but the head teacher said today that you are sick and hospitalized!"
Needless to say, Adam must have asked for a leave for her.
Looking at her good friend, Anthea couldn't help frowning. "Today is Monday. You should be in morning class at this time. Why are you here?"
"I took sick leave." Leonardo shrugged his shoulders.
"Sick leave?" Anthea was not convinced, as she saw him shaking one of his legs frivolously and showing no sign of illness at all.
Leonardo was very complacent. "Well, I have a stomachache, too!"
Anthea rolled her eyes at him.
Needless to say, this guy definitely skipped classes.
Then she thought of something and asked doubtfully, "But how did you know I was in this hospital?"
Leonardo raised his eyebrows, arms crossed, and said with his chin up, "It's easy. I can find it out simply by giving an order!"
Hearing this, Anthea nodded her head.
Leonardo was born with a silver spoon, and his family also had a very powerful background. From the time he entered Vaden High School to now, he had been arrogant all the time.
It was also because of his rebellion and bad academic performance and making trouble all the time that his parents punished him and sent him to the town, where they could get to know each other.
Suddenly, the door of the bathroom was pushed open, which made the two people outside stunned.
Adam's tall and strong figure came out. The stubble on his chin had been all shaved off. His facial features were strongly defined, which made him look more masculine.
"What the f**k?" Leonardo was shocked and bounced up from the hospital bed. "Who are you? Where did you come from?"
Anthea lowered her voice to warn him. "Hey, he's my
uncle!"
Leonardo suddenly put on a smile and said, "Sorry, I just overreacted!"
"It's okay." Adam said calmly.
Leonardo stepped forward, reached out his hand like an adult and said solemnly, "Hello, uncle, I am the first love of Anthea!"
"What are you talking about?" Leonardo's words almost made Anthea choke.
She didn't expect this guy to mention the history between the two of them again. She was very nervous and hurriedly explained, "Uncle, don't listen to him! We’re just good friends. I knew him when I was at school in the town! He is like a big brother to me."
"All right." Adam said in a low voice.
Anthea observed the expression on Adam’s face. She was very nervous and feared that he might misunderstand. But when she saw his expressionless face, she felt a little lost.
Adam's eyes fell on her, and he said deeply, "I have found a female nurse for you. She will come over later to take care of you."
"Are you leaving?" Hearing this, Anthea immediately asked and bit her lips.
"Yes, I have to go to attend a meeting." Adam nodded and looked down at the watch on his wrist. The schedule had been arranged a long time ago, and this was also the reason why he had just asked Carter to go downstairs to wait for him.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
