Trapped with a Doctor novel Chapter 142

Her mother had to support her once she found out that Angela had fallen in love with Arvin wholeheartedly.

But her father, on the other hand, only wanted her to stay away from him! Oh damn the fates that be! The only thing she knew clearly in all this pandemonium was that anything her father said was supposedly for her own benefit.

Chuck cast a glance over to his wife, who staring eagerly at him, and responded to Angela with a vehement growl to his usual soft-spoken tenor. "Let me tell you the truth. I'm calling because your mother asked me to do so! But fine! I won't care a fig about you any more! Don't ask me for my help if you get into trouble someday! So long!"

Chuck slammed down the phone quickly; Daisy didn't have time to take in what had happened.

She inquired, "Hey! It was your idea to call Angela! I had nothing to do with it, and couldn't have stopped you if I tried. Why would you tell her something like that?"

Chuck didn't answer her question and just murmured, "Our daughter is a grown woman now. Or so she thinks. And she takes that to mean, never listen to her elders anymore. No, I won't let this happen! I'll call Arvin right now!"

Arvin had been lucky to meet Chuck at the airport that day because under no circumstances was it permitted to board an airplane with dangerous medical equipment like scalpels.

Were he to have taken his scalpels, that's a different story, and Arvin may not be alive today to tell it.

Daisy couldn't speak for a moment, the fervor of it hit her all in one go. But then, mustering her strength, she said, "Don't call him! What are you going to tell Arvin? Remember that they're not engaged yet! Who do you think you are? Are you his father-in-law?

Chuck had nothing to say.

Chuck was persuaded by Daisy and he gave up the idea of calling Arvin.

As noon approached, Angela heard that their hospital would hold a ball to celebrate Arvin's inauguration. The employees of the R and D Department were encouraged to prepare a performance.

'How to prepare a performance?' Angela felt ridiculous about this idea. She thought it much better to give Arvin a gift at night.

After lunch, Angela wandered around the yard of the hospital. Seeing the sun in the sky, somehow she felt frustrated.

She got restless every time she thought about her uncertain relationship with Arvin.

She had never imagined such a strange relationship between her and Arvin. They were not a couple yet but they had done something close to being a couple.

Uh... How was it possible to put a label on their relationship properly? Yes! She got an idea. They were closer than friends but not as close as a couple.

She believed that this state perfectly reflected her relationship with Arvin.

"Angela!" A strange voice interrupted Angela's reverie.

Then she saw several men running towards her. The leading one was Baron whom she had just met last night!

'He must come for me with malicious intention, ' Angela guessed.

Pretending that she hadn't noticed him, Angela stood up and walked towards the R and D Department in a fast pace.

"Wait! Stop, Angela!" Baron was annoyed to be ignored.

But Angela didn't care about his importunes and kept moving forward. Angela's manner infuriated Baron.

"Angela, I will catch you and throw you to the lake!" He threatened her.

How could Baron be so hateful! He always harassed Angela like some puny fly.

"Stop Angela! If you dare take another step, I swear I'll squash you!" Angela stopped at once, with Baron close on her heels coming to a screeching halt too.

Angela secretly cast a scornful glance at Baron, then she restrained her emotion and smiled with recalcitrance at him. "You're an animal, you know that?"

"What animal?" Baron demanded of her rudely. Strange, he mused. 'Angela is usually not so usually free-spirited, but today she's acting as if she can walk high on air and treat everyone else like garbage. That is so unfair, he wondered in confusion. Why does she think she can treat me this way?'

Angela told him in a contemptuous tone. "The fly!"
