Trapped with a Doctor novel Chapter 73

One of the nurses replied, "Fine. It's about work, but do they really need to discuss about work every day? Even at lunch time?"

Angela just kept nodding.

It turned out Nita and Arvin worked together every day, even during meals!

While she thought of this, Angela immediately lost her appetite for lunch.

Seated opposite to Angela was Nancy. She held Angela's hand and comforted her. "What are you thinking about? They are talking bullshit. Just leave them alone!"

Angela shook her head. She knew what they said might be crap, but she still felt uncomfortable upon hearing it.

What's wrong with her?

Besides, Angela found something weird. When she went out of the restaurant and was on her way to VVIP inpatient department, she could hear people talking about Arvin everywhere.

She heard some nurses who were seated at the pavilion saying, "You know what? Mr. Gu's birthday is coming in next week!"

"Wow. How do you know that?"

"A friend of my uncle's nephew knew Mr. Gu's uncle, and he told me about it!"

"Maybe we should give Mr. Gu something as the birthday gift."

"Come on, have you seen Mr. Gu receive gifts from any women? You see. Angela had to sneak into Mr. Gu's office to give him the shirts!"

Angela was lost for words.

She really wanted to ask them why she was always involved in any topic related to Arvin? How could she always get attacked verbally without doing anything wrong?

Because she was eager to meet Arvin, Angela felt an extreme suffering during her working hours.

In an attempt to ease up her stress, Angela called Arvin immediately when she was off work, but the phone kept ringing for a long time. He didn't answer her call.

Someone else did.

"Hello. Mr. Gu is in a surgery right now. May I have a word for you?"

It was a woman who answered the call, and the voice sounded much like... Nita's.

Why would Nita pick up Arvin's phone call? And judging from what Nita had said, it seemed that Arvin had not saved her phone number at all.

In this case, things would be much easier. Anyway, Nita didn't know it was her, so Angela replied instantly. "Yes. I'm waiting for him to get off work, and I wonder when he would be available."

This time, it was Nita who got silent. She glanced at the number saved with the name little girl and wondered who this little girl could be. Why would she wait for Arvin to get off work?

She put her left hand inside the pocket of the white coat and asked carefully, "Why are you waiting for him to get off work?"

"He promised that he would... go shopping with me!" Angela began to talk uncontrollably. After all, she thought that she couldn't tell her that Arvin promised to bring her home.

When she became sure it was Nita on the other line, Angela was suddenly trapped into a hostile mood.

Such hostility was triggered for no reason. Even Angela herself didn't notice its existence.

"Shopping?" Nita sounded a little suspicious about it. As far as she knew, Arvin was very busy everyday and she had never seen him go shopping ever. So, she couldn't help but doubt if the little girl was just bluffing.

"Yes, I asked him to take me to catch dolls!" Angela showed off deliberately.
