"Phil, thank you, I'm finally free from misery." After Morgan left, Lorie thanked Phil.
Without Phil's help, she could not have gotten rid of Morgan so easily.
Phil put his arm around Anya beside him and said with a light smile, "We are a family, so no need to be so polite."
Anya glared at him, thinking, 'Nonsense, we've been divorced!"
Phil read her mind but did not say anything.
Lorie noticed the affection in their eyes as they looked at each other, then she said, "Phil, It's rare for you to be back. You must get a lot on your plate, so go take care of your business."
Lorie remembered Phil was going to propose to Anya tonight, so she created a chance for Phil to take care of it.
Anya echoed, "Yes, go do what you need to do."
Phil had received a lot of calls since he got up, and Anya could tell the calls were about work. She thought he should take this rare opportunity to go to the company to take care of business.
"OK," Phil responded, then explained, "I'll come back at noon and we'll have lunch together."
Anya and Lorie agreed, then Phil left.
He went to see Dr. Choffard first to confirm if Lorie could leave the hospital to attend the proposal ceremony at the hotel he had booked in her current condition.
Dr. Choffard smiled and reassured Phil, "No problem."
"She's recovering well, and she did way better than expected."
"That's good." Phil sighed with relief.
He wished Lorie to attend the proposal ceremony tonight and witness Anya's happiness.
But he was worried that it was not suitable for Lorie to go out in her current condition.
After all, Lorie's health was the most important to Anya.
Dr. Choffard said, "If it were anyone else, she could have been discharged and gone home for recuperation. But since Lorie doesn't have trouble affording medical fees, it'll be much better for her to stay in the hospital to receive specialized medical care."
Specialized medical care in a hospital cost a lot, and average families could not afford it. But it was a piece of cake for Phil. He had paid Lorie's medical fees in advance since Lorie fell into a coma.
If Phil had ever given up, Lorie wouldn't have recovered yet.
"Let her stay in the hospital to recover until Anya and I return home to stay long. Or we will be worried about her when only nannies look after her at home."
"When Anya finishes her studies and we return home, we'll take her to live with us."
Phil said so and believed Anya would rejoice in such a decision.
Dr. Choffard gave Phil a thumbs up. He witnessed Phil's love and care for Lorie, so he wished Phil and Anya could live happily together.
Phil left the hospital to prepare for the proposal, while Anya stayed at the hospital with Lorie.
At the same time, Morgan and his family were restless.
News about Gracie's mother being a mistress who broke up the family was still a trending topic, another negative news about Gracie was made – Gracie lied about her age.
