Trapped with a Doctor novel Chapter 159

"I didn't call you. I'm calling the man who loves me. Aren't you that man? If you don't love me, I'll just hang up!" How was Arvin to know for sure what was on Angela's mind? Well, when he heard her say these words, all doubt evaporated, and he didn't feel angry anymore.

He was speechless, and in lieu of his response, Angela continued, "Arvin, I'm really angry with you. You have to apologize to me!"

At this moment, a soft voice came through the receiver, "Arv."

The voice was so soft, in fact, that Angela didn't even notice it on the call, but Arvin did.

He turned round and saw Nita rushing towards him.

He glanced at her, but then returned to his important phone call as if he hadn't seen anything.

Because of his delayed response, Angela knew instinctively what was up. She was about to hang up after saying goodbye a few times squeamishly.

"Look, what do you want me to say? Except apologize?" It was Angela who had committed the wrongdoing, so he believed, so there was no reason why he was responsible for the first apology.

Upon hearing his voice, Angela wiped her tears away with a Kleenex, and put her cell phone back to her ear. She pouted and said, "I just want you to apologize!"

"Nope. It'll have to be something else." If he apologized now, she would expect an apology each and every time there was the slightest hiccup, so he wished to do right by her and not spoil her...

"Come on! It's just a goddamn apology! You haven't been in touch with me for two days. I'm worried sick, and you won't even say sorry."

In face of Angela's little trick, Arvin had no recourse but to surrender. He closed his eyes and kept silent for half a minute, and then he finally said, "Sorry."

"You're not being sincere at all. I want you to say it again, but with meaning!" Angela was really testing Arvin's patience...

Arvin nodded and blurted out, "Good for you!"

"Thank you. I'll accept your praise!"

Arvin was speechless again. Then he said, "Angela, how about coming to J City! Let me apologize to you face to face, why don't you?"

For the truth was that if Angela was right in front of him at this exact moment, then he would definitely reply to her with the sincerity she demanded of him...

But unfortunately, that was not the fate that awaited them. He would surrender anytime as long as Angela pouted. She would always get her way because she was manipulative and unabashed about it.

Angela tried to take advantage of the current situation, so she said, "Big wing, I want you to apologize again, otherwise, I will not miss you! You'll be dead to me."

"... Don't you dare!"

Angela replied with a pouting but avaricious smile on her face. "Big wing, see? I'm taking the initiative to call you. How could you be so cruel to me after all we've been through..."

Angela said it as if she were the wronged party in all of this hodgepodge.

Arvin couldn't help but smile. He actually recognized and appreciated Angela's talent for sophistry, so he replied, "Baby, I'm so sorry. It'll never happen again."

"Okay, big wing. That's all I wanted, I'm not angry any more!" Angela was so happy when she heard Arvin surrender to her will. She threw herself onto the bed and even rolled for a few circles on the bed, elated that her boyfriend was so easy to crumble into dust.

She found that her heart almost melted like a candy bar when Arvin called her baby.

"Angela, let me ask you again. Have you kept anything hidden from me?" Kent had gone to fetch the surveillance camera of the community according to the address given by Fabian, so the answer was about to be released, with any hope.

Angela felt a little confused about the question. She answered, "No. Oh, do you mean the two pieces of chocolate I ate in the middle of the night yesterday?"

"..."

Arvin didn't notice that Nita was still there until he hung up the call.

Her face was pale as she listened to her amour talking so tenderly with Angela over the phone.

It was the first time that Nita had seen Arvin so enwrapped in a perfect vision of bliss. She had never seen him laugh or act tenderly, like a warm paternal figure would. It made her insurmountably jealous.

And he called Angela "Baby". It seemed that they were inextricably tied to each other...

Ah, how happy would she be were he to treat her with such endearing names too.

Thinking this over in her mind, Nita felt even more jealous.

"Anything you want to tell me?"

Nita, "..." Why? Why was Arvin so cold in front of her? He had never been so cold to her before.

Before Arvin had ever met Angela, Nita was the closest woman to his heart besides Rosa.
