They had just taken a few steps out of the ward when Ann was pulled into Phillip's arms.
A familiar smell of cologne filled in Ann's nose. The scent made her feel at ease.
Ann hugged his waist and looked up at him.
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming back earlier?"
It seemed like she was complaining, but her eyes were filled with joy.
Phillip's tired face broke her heart.
"You must be tired. Why don't you go back and take a rest first?"
Phillip looked down at her. Seeing the concern in her eyes, he became gentler and he kissed her smooth forehead.
"I want to persuade my future father-in-law and marry you as soon as possible."
The man, who had countless assets and stood at the top of power, went straight to the hospital to visit his girlfriend's father right after he finished his work.
He just wanted to tell William that he really cared about Ann.
Because of his words, Ann's heart skipped a beat. Her long, curly eyelashes trembled slightly.
"Then ... what did you tell my dad?"
"I make an oath and show my determination."
"And then? What did my dad say?"
Ann stared at him with watery eyes, which filled with tension and anticipation.
She did not tell Phillip about William wanting them to break up. Today, because William was present, she didn't mention it.
But if Phillip could convince her father...
Phillip lowered his head to press against Ann's forehead. He smiled and felt Ann's fast breathing. He pretended to sigh.
"It seems that your father has a prejudice against me. He has always felt that I am a macaroni who does not cherish what he has."
Ann's eyes darkened, and she looked down.
Although she was not surprised by this answer, she was still a little upset.
She did not intend to listen to her father and give up on Phillip, and she still hoped to get her father's consent.
Seeing Ann's depressed expression, Phillip lifted her chin and made her look into his eyes.
"Ann, I don't think there's anything wrong. Your father is doing this precisely because he cares about you. As long as I treat you as the apple of my eye, I'm confident that he won't object anymore."
"Phillip, I'm sorry." Ann blinked his eyes with sadness and held Phillip tightly.
