In the senior ward.
When Gilbert woke up again, it was already twilight outside.
He looked around and only saw Donna sitting on the edge of the bed, who was manicuring. Then he asked with a poker face, "Why are you the only one here?"
"Oh, I let Madge and her mother go back first!" Donna said lazily.
"I see." Gilbert nodded.
When Donna saw that he was about to get up, she stepped forward to help him up. "How do you feel now? Should I call the doctor?"
"No, I'm much better!" Gilbert waved his hand and obviously had recovered quite a bit. He snorted and said, "As long as you don't piss me off, I will always be healthy!"
"It's all because you're easy to get angry. They came here to see you, and you kept yelling at them!"
"It's his fault to bring that woman here! He's deliberately trying to show off to me!"
"Brother, I didn't mean to say that. You're an old man, and you're still so narrow- minded and negative!" Donna curled her lips and deliberately said, "I was worried about your health at first, but it seems that nothing serious will happen because you're still a real pain in the a*s when it comes to lecturing people!"
"You want to piss me off?" Gilbert frowned.
"How dare I!" Donna immediately tried to please him.
"Humph, I know what you've done. I haven't settled with you yet!" Gilbert glared at her and lectured. "Have you recently acquired a company? I threw Charlie into Lim City to give him some punishment. And what did you do? You sent that woman to him on business! You're working together to make me angry!"
"Oh! Nothing can be hidden from you!" Donna said with an expression of admiration.
"Don't make fun of it!" Gilbert became serious.
"Okay, I will not!" Donna shrugged her shoulders and became serious. She tentatively said, "Brother, Charlie was basically raised by me. I know him better than you. I can see that he can't live without Wendy... Well, can you just let them go?"
Gilbert suddenly looked terrible and raised his voice. "Donna, do you know what you're talking about? Charlie and Madge's engagement was between the Hogg family and the Gray family, and Madge likes Charlie and she's just waiting to marry him! A few days ago, she tried to kill herself with sleeping pills. If her family hadn't saved her in time, she could have died! The Gray family didn't say anything, and there was no complaint! So, don't ever let me hear you say that again."
Donna furrowed her long, thin eyebrows.
She still wanted to say something, but when she saw Gilbert's undulating chest, she said in a hurry, "Fine, you win, I just stop talking!"
Since the timing was not right, she was afraid that it would make Gilbert's condition worse. She thought Charlie and Wendy still got a long way to go, so it was impossible to solve it overnight. Donna no longer talked about this topic. She stood up from her seat, walked to the table, and opened the cover of the lunchbox.
The fresh aroma of chicken soup suddenly spread in the ward.
"Well, this chicken soup tastes really good!" Donna got closer to smell it and murmured, "It's still hot. Brother, let me get you some chicken soup and have a taste. Wendy is really good at cooking. It's a pity that she didn't even get a thank you and got beaten up!"
There was a trace of embarrassment on Gilbert's face, but he insisted, "I don't eat what she sends me!"
"You don't?"
"No!"
Donna didn't insist anymore. She sat on the sofa with chicken soup in her hands and said, "Okay! Then I'll eat it for you!"

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 😩...
