Inside XS Hospital
Standing in front of Kate's hospital bed, Greg said cordially, "Auntie, you rest here and if you have any concern then we are here to take care of it. Within no time you should be fit and fine and well on the path to recovery. If you have any doubt, call the nurses and they will help you solve it."
"Okay," Kate felt very gratified after seeing the concern in Greg's tone. "Thank you very much!"
"It's my pleasure!" Greg answered politely and gave her an encouraging smile, saying, "You should rest now and I will take your leave."
He quietly walked out of the room and closed the door gently. As soon as he lifted his head, he saw a beautiful and innocent girl approaching him. She was very thin and her hair was tied into a ponytail. Dressed in a simple T-shirt and jeans, she appeared plain yet pure.
"Hello, Is this a VIP room?" asked Aria, her eyes widened with surprise.
"Yes. And may I know who you are?" Greg asked. It was obvious that the girl had no idea about his identity and thought that he was just another doctor on duty that day.
"I am Aria, daughter of the patient," Aria replied politely. 'Since this man has come out of my mother's ward and he is also wearing a white gown, he must be her doctor-in-charge, ' thought Aria.
Greg immediately understood after she introduced herself. With a faint smile, he greeted, "Hello, Aria! You must be Lawrence's friend, aren't you? I am Greg! Lawrence had asked me to arrange this VIP room for your mother."
"Wait. Are you...Greg Xiao?" Aria's?hand flew to?her mouth in shock and disbelief. Her eyes were reflecting the confusion she was going through. Wasn't Greg the owner of XS Hospital? It seemed that Lawrence was quite a well-to-do man if he could ask the president of the most prestigious hospital to take care of her mother.
"Yes, it's me!" Greg replied. The girl standing in front of him reminded him of Violet in more than one ways. Both of them had the same kind of temperament, that is, they were both pure and si
"You're my wife in name only, on paper only. My heart and love will never be yours."
Edward made it clear to Daisy that she was nothing to him. They were both victims of family greed -- the marriage was arranged for them.
Six years passed. She remained quiet, gaining a reputation in the army as a tough-as-nails colonel. When she walked into his life again, Edward fell in love with this woman...
lected the name of the person immediately: Sally! Sally He! The woman who almost stole his father away from his mother, Cherry!
Lawrence put down his glass on the table, stood up and moved ahead to check whether he was right. But he couldn't see that face anymore because there were so many people drinking and dancing there. The dim light also weakened his eyesight.
Just as he thought that he should go inside to find her, Lawrence heard someone call his name.
"Hi, Lawrence, I am here!" Aria stood beside Lawrence, happily.
Lawrence turned his head and he immediately felt at ease after seeing Aria.
"Follow me!" Saying that Lawrence grabbed Aria by the arm and pulled her out of the bar swiftly giving her just no time to react.
They soon got into a car and Lawrence ordered the driver, "Now, move!"
Hearing his order, the driver started the engine immediately and they left the bar.
Aria was still a little puzzled and she asked, "Wait, didn't you ask me to meet you at the bar? Why are we leaving and where are we going, can you please tell me?"
Instead of replying her, Lawrence held her hand tightly and kept feeling the warmth from her palm. Actually, he had got flustered after seeing Sally and now that Aria was close to him he had relaxed. His going away from there was just so he could spend some time with Aria.
