Arvin was concentrating himself on performing a CPR on Rosa, so he failed to notice that Angela had been hurt. He blamed himself for having been so careless.
If he had known that Angela would be in any danger, he would've definitely saved her first.
The fire was set by Randal. He hid on the second floor and listened carefully to their conversations. He knew that Arvin would come back to save Angela, so he wanted to burn the both of them alive.
Randal set fire to the electrical wires on the second floor, and soon the fire started growing and spreading throughout the building.
Angela confronted, "If Fabian Li hadn't come to save me in time, your child and I would've... been dead. Have you thought about that?" In her moments of despair, Angela hazily recognized Fabian's figure. She felt a bit of relief before she finally fainted.
'My child?' Arvin was so happy to hear that. He kissed her long hair, and said, "'My child', what a beautiful word! Please don't add the other words to it. I won't allow you to leave me, nor will I allow you to marry some other man, and moreover, I won't let you die!"
He would save Angela from harm's way, no matter how dangerous.
Regarding Fabian, he had saved Angela and the baby's life, so Arvin was in debt to him. He would find some way to thank him in the future.
"Mr. Gu, you are so good at saying sweet words. But, this time, I am not going to give in." Angela would never admit that she was actually touched by his words just now.
Arvin lowered his head and was about to kiss her again, but someone knocked on the door. Angela heard Daisy's voice, so she hastily struggled out of his arms and ran to open the door.
"Angela, are you still awake? I've cooked some bird's nest soup for you." It was already late so Daisy had only cooked a small bowl of soup for Angela.
Angela didn't know how to reacted, and she said, "Mom, I've only been pregnant for less than two months. I don't need to drink this..."
But Arvin came over and took the bowl of soup from Daisy's hands and said, "Mom, please give it to me. I will feed it to Angela."
Daisy smiled as she handed it to Arvin, saying, "Arvin, you don't need to spoil her. Let her drink it herself!" Nonetheless, Daisy was quite satisfied to see Arvin spoil Angela like that.
Angela was speechless. She glared at Arvin. 'Huh! I don't need him to feed me!'
As soon as Daisy left, Angela took the bowl from Arvin's hands and demanded, "Please go away, I will drink it myself."
Arvin paused, and then nodded, "Okay."
Then Arvin walked out the door. Angela was in a daze, as she looked at the closed door. 'He... left? Just like that?
Fine! I'll leave him be. He can go wherever he likes. It's none of my concern, ' thought Angela.
The next afternoon, Angela was amazed to see the people chatting happily at the living room. 'Grandma... and mother, when did they come here?'
Daisy was the first one to see Angela come downstairs. She said, "Angela, you are awake. Come here, Arvin's grandmother and mother are here."
Angela was taking a nap, so they decided not to wake her up.
