He scolded Anthea so harshly that she nearly went ballistic.
By the time he finished, her cheeks had already puffed up like that of squirrels, and she left hastily in anger.
She was so pissed off!
Anthea suspected that he was a fake.
Last night, he was holding her in his arms, watching the stars and the moon, and saying that he would take her to camp and watch the meteor storm. But today, he, who suddenly kept scolding her harshly, looked like a different person.
Anthea's chest heaved convulsively.
She went back to the medical center in furious and threw her life jacket heavily on the ground.
"He has gone too far!" Anthea roared angrily.
Leonardo stepped forward and picked up the life jacket from the ground. He patted off the dust on it. Although he did not go to watch the scene of bustle just now, he had a rough idea of what had happened.
He said with a shrug, "Well, it's a shame to be
scolded in public!"
Not only did she feel humiliated, but also Anthea wanted to go ballistic!
"How could he treat me like this? I've just agreed to be his girlfriend for only two days, and he was so heartless that he lectured me while pointing at my nose. I can't endure him any longer!"
Leonardo listened to her rumbles of resentment but smartly did not echo her.
Once he chimed in, she would rage at him and ask him to stop criticizing Adam with her!
The more Anthea thought about it, the more she felt that Adam had gone too far. She snorted coldly and said, "Unless he apologizes to me and admits that he was wrong, I won't pay attention to him!"
Leonardo made a bow with hands folded in front. "Well, if you can do that, you're a woman of guts!"
Anthea rolled her eyes at him.
In the evening, the red sun was already slanting to the west.
After Adam reprimanded Anthea, she had been staying in the tents of the medical site. She never went out and did not even go to the toilet.
Upon finishing her work, she sat there with her arms around her shoulder.
When the sun sank below the horizon, and the last glimmer of the sunset glow had disappeared, steady footsteps were coming over.
Anthea did not look up, but a pair of black military boots appeared in his line of sight.
She saw a pair of military boots stop before her.
Adam looked at the untouched milk and ham on the table and frowned. His voice was no longer as cold as before as he asked, "Why didn't you have dinner?"
How could she in the mood to eat? She was full of anger!
"Aren't you hungry?" asked Adam with concern.
Anthea turned away from him and snorted to express her dissatisfaction.
Now the unpleasant look on her elfin face told him one important thing: she was still outraged!
Adam put his hands in his pockets and kept silent. After a while, he said in a low voice, "Come out with me. I have something to tell you."
However, Anthea sat there steadily, like a monk who had entered a meditative state.
"I'll be waiting for you under the tree, like last night."
As soon as Adam threw out these words, he strode out of the tent first.
Anthea looked at his tall back and gritted her teeth.
When he disappeared from her sight, she suddenly stood up, thinking that she had to go there and give him a chance to apologize and please her!
As she walked out angrily, she saw Adam, who was waiting for her under the tree in the distance.

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 😩...
