Chapter 151 "You go ahead, then. I've made plans." I wanted to eat and shop with Cecilia.
"Good job! Your husband is in the hospital and you're still in the mood to dine out with others. Do you even have a conscience?" I was irritated and did not want to talk to him any longer. "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now." "I'll give you 20 minutes. If you're not here by then, you'll bear the consequences." He lowered his voice threateningly.
"I'll bear it, then." I was unfazed as I hung up the phone immediately.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI was already irritated before. Now, I was annoyed. Another phone call cin and I thought it was Theo once again. When I lifted my phone, it was an unknown number.
After a moment of hesitation, I answered the call.
"Wandy, I've missed you." A lazy drawl was heard from the other end of the line.
I shuddered. Tyler Schuman! 1 There was a tingling sensation on my scalp as I tried t o calm myself down. "Anything important?” He had disappeared after the fight last time. I thought he would leavealone, but now, it seemed like it was impossible.
"I just miss you." His tone was slightly bratty, but it could still send chills down one's spine. 1 "If you're bored, go get a girlfriend. Stop usingas your pastime." I was sulky. Theo alone was enough to makefrustrated. Now, there was Tyler Schuman too? Just killalready.
He chuckled. "I won't date if I can't find anyone as adorable as my sister." "Lunatic." I was annoyed, and my head was pounding furiously. I did not want to waste any more twith him. I hung up.
As I was about to get in my car, Keith appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of my car door. His face was solemn as he stood upright. "President Lane, President Grant has askedto escort you to the hospital." "When did I say that I was going to visit him and asked him to fetchover?" I knew now that the consequences Theo had mentioned earlier were to resort to brute force.
Keith was silent, but he was adamant as he stood in front of my car door. He did not allowto get inside my car.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"How annoying can all of you be? I said I'm not going! I'm not going!" I could not take it anymore as I bellowed at Keith.
Keith did not even flinch. He was persistent." President Grant orderedto cget you. Please don't make it difficult for me, President Lane." "You..." I wanted to yell at Keith once more, but I thought that it would be unreasonable ofto take it out on him. Hence, I held it in. "I'll just drive there. Can I do that?" "I'll send you there, President Lane." "Fine, I'll go, I'll go. Where's the car?" Alas, I gave in. It was no use trying to reason with Theo. Keith would do whatever he could and achieve his task by hook or by crook. This was also why Theo had trusted him for so many years.
"My car is here, President Lane. Please watch your steps." It was like Keith had not just witnessed my outburst. He still ledto his car with a straight face.
Bam! I slammed the car door shut, taking out my displeasure on it.
It was a silent journey all the way to the hospital.
Keith practically abandoned his car right at the main entrance of the hospital and escorteduntil I got to Theo's ward.
Hah. How much distrust did he have for me?
