Anthea left in a hurry after receiving Victor's call.
In fact, only she herself knew that she was running away.
Because his embrace was so warm. Too warm that she could not allow herself to enjoy it.
Victor came to attend the seminar organized by the hospital. Anthea took him directly to the conference room.
The seminar ended at 3 p.m.
To show their respect, the Director and his team sent Victor downstairs.
Along the way, they talked and laughed a lot. Somehow, the topic became love and marriage.
The director said with a smile, "As far as I know, Professor Zanon is still single, right? How can an excellent young man like you be single? You and Director Lee have been friends for many years, and you are brother and sister of the same teacher. You both got your advantages. Why aren't you together?"
"Indeed. Director Lee is so beautiful. Professor Zanon, you two seem to be a perfect match!"
The doctors and nurses nearby echoed.
Seeing this, Victor said, "Since everyone said so... What say you, Anthea?"
Anthea didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she followed them, "Okay, I'll think about it!"
Everyone laughed out louder.
When they got out of the hospital lobby, only the two of them were left. Victor joked, "Have you made your decision, Anthea?"
"Stop it!" Anthea smiled and teased.
When she smiled, two small dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth.
Her whole face became bright and beautiful.
Victor was a little lost in her beauty but soon recovered.
When he first saw her smile, he fell in love with her. But it was unrequired love. He would not force her.
However, he asked again without any ambiguity, "Anthea, you really don't want to think about it anymore?"
Anthea almost rolled her eyes.
Victor narrowed his eyes slightly and sighed. "Six years have passed and you still couldn't forget him, right?"
Anthea made a muffle.
This was the second person who had asked this
question.
Anthea shook her head.
She shrugged her shoulders and said with a smile, "I don't want to date for the time being. I just want to cure the disease and save people!"
Seeing this, Victor knew that she had sealed her world once again, so he stopped asking and said, "Anthea, we agreed that you should treat me to dinner tonight! I'll leave in the morning of the day after tomorrow!"
"Okay, I haven't had a treat for you yet!" Anthea nodded happily.
Victor was a busy man and he didn't plan to stay long. He would go back to Country M after he finish all the work here. Anyway, they should have a meal together.
Victor said, "I'll come after I finish my work tonight. I'll have to find an expensive place then!"
Anthea smiled.
The door of room 305 was pushed open by someone from the outside. Carter held the door frame and panted, "Phew! Captain Chin, I'm...I'm back! I've tried my best to find out everything with my silver tongue!"
On the sofa in front of the window, Adam's fingers were tapping on the armrest.
Hearing the voice, he looked up and glanced at him.
Carter smiled wickedly, "Captain Chin, don't you want to know? If you don't want to, then I won't say it!"
Adam was silent.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Seeing that he was sitting steadily like a statue, Carter felt like his heart was being scratched by hundreds of claws.
He couldn't hold it in anymore. "Well, the professor Zanon is here for the seminar. He just finished it and was sent away by sister-in-law. He is sister-in-law's senior brother, and this Zanon is the son of sister-in-law's teacher Vincent Zanon!
Amelie was very confident. She was now the most suitable daughter-in-law for their eldest son in their eyes.
The sound of footsteps came from upstairs.
Adam, dressed in military uniform, was walking down quickly with one hand in his pocket.
As soon as Amelie saw it, she immediately went forward, "Adam, it's time to have dinner. Come and sit!"
Adam avoided her hand without hiding his intention to do so.
He said, "I have an appointment tonight."
Hearing this, Bellamy was not happy, "Amelie has been busy for the whole afternoon. The dishes were all ready and it's time to have dinner. Why are you leaving? It's so impolite."
Adam's face remained expressionless, "It's a gathering of comrades. We've made an appointment in advance."
After that, his tall figure disappeared behind the gate.
Bellamy was very unhappy and his wife was comforting him.
A comrade gathering?
Why didn't Amelie know that there was a party?
The smile on Amelie's face did not change. She returned to the table and helped the two seniors to sit down and enjoy the dishes.
Bellamy was still displeased.
He found that his son was getting more and more ignorant and impolite!
How should he ignore the guest at home! Two days ago, he even went to a college to give lectures!
Bellamy suddenly remembered that many years ago, Adam suddenly came back from Francis and went to work as some god-damn training officer in the college!
A simple thought of these made him angry!
Amelie knew the reason why he was infuriated and comforted him with a smile, "Uncle Bellamy, don't be angry. Adam is busy. I can understand! I cooked these dishes for you and Aunt Meadow!"
Bellamy's eyes were filled with admiration, "Amelie, you're a good girl. Sorry that Adam was so impolite!"
