Saying this, he hurriedly walked out the door, his back stumbling as if he was fleeing in distress.
Phoebe Barnes looked at the heart of the doubt heavier, gaze slightly moved, looking at the side of the man’s taut face, those eyes like a deep cave of ice, very quiet, cold air but silent spread.
Her heart ached and she couldn’t help but reach out and hold his big palm tight.
The man seemed to feel something, very quickly converge the look under his eyes, retracted his eyes to look at her, casual light mockery, “You this sympathy and heartache expression how much do you mean?”
Phoebe Barnes bristled, “It means what you see, sympathy and heartache.”
She said, holding his handsome face, shaking her head regretfully: “People like you, in addition to a childhood of torture or late by women hurt too much, and you have both, no wonder the formation of the current perverted and distorted and indifferent psychology.”
“…”
The man’s face abruptly darkened.
This woman owes a lot.
Then, the little woman sighed again, very sullenly: “Anyway, you do not tell me how you were actually destroyed as a child, I can only sympathize with the heartache, there is no way to be able to empathize with it like Miss Gu.”
The man narrowed his eyes, “You care a lot about my past?”
Phoebe Barnes didn’t nod or shake her head, just said gently, “I was just thinking that if Miss Gu were here at this time, she would know how to comfort you.”
“…”
The man how not to guess her little mind, looked askance at her, snickered, “This you say is not false at all, you should call her now, so that she can come over to comfort me.”
Phoebe Barnes originally wanted him to take the initiative to talk about the past, but I did not expect him to go along with her, and suddenly depressed to the point of no return, pretty eyebrows tightened, gambling said: “Just do not fight, if you want to fight your own fight.”
Saying that, he got up from him and walked away without looking back.
Kemp Ross glanced at her, lips lightly hooked, and did not stop her, then picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number out.
“Ross General.”
The man took the phone, his voice instantly became low and cold, “Tell Genny Ross that since he likes the bar so much, he will live there in the future, and he doesn’t have to pay for next month’s living expenses.”
After saying that, and did not wait for the other party to have a response, directly cut the call.
Phoebe Barnes had actually been hiding in the kitchen doorway staring at him, and when she saw him reach for his cell phone, she really thought he was going to call Miley Gu. Her heart was half cold, and after hearing his words, she froze, walked over, and joked playfully, “I thought you said you didn’t care about her?”
The man said lightly, “Lacking a brain like you, letting her cause me trouble over there, is that it? You alone are not enough to annoy me?”
Phoebe Barnes, “…”
After a few seconds of aggravation, she sullenly said, “Then I won’t bother you, you can let me go back to the set tomorrow.”
She didn’t forget that there was a mess waiting for her in Lanzhou.
“…”
The man did not pay attention to her, nor did he respond, got up and went back to the study, and dinner did not come down to eat.
The next day, Phoebe Barnes got up early and was nowhere to be seen.
She stayed at the villa for another half day with nothing to do until the driver came to the villa for her at noon.
“Ma’am, Ross asked me to take you to the hospital now.”
Phoebe Barnes was memorizing her lines and froze at the sound of her voice, “He went to the hospital?”
“I don’t know, Ross just called to say I should take you to the hospital.”
“Well, you wait a minute, I’ll change my clothes and come.”
…
Ross’s Hospital.
When Phoebe Barnes arrived, she did not see Kemp Ross, and he did not answer her phone.
Not knowing what he was going to do, he had to go to King Pei first and wait.
Before King Pei could meet, he ran into Miley Gu first.
“Miss Barnes came alone?”
Phoebe Barnes wrinkled her nose slightly, not really wanting to be alone with her, and shook her head, distantly, “Kemp will be here in a minute.”
Miley Gu’s face was bland, “Then why don’t you just go to my section and wait and check back directly.”
“Check?” Phoebe Barnes was slightly stunned.
Kemp Ross brought her in for a checkup? How come I didn’t hear about it last night.
Miley Gu smiled lightly, “Kemp thinks highly of this child and does not want any hint of accident to happen to him, so he asked me to make preparations early in the morning, Miss Barnes come with me first.”
The implication is that Kemp Ross is only being nice to her now because of the baby.
Phoebe Barnes had some coldness in her eyes and refused in a light voice, “No, I’d rather wait for Kemp to come before we go over together, Dr. Gu go ahead and get busy.”
She said staggering her to leave.
Miley Gu laughs Rong lightens, his body does not move, just says: “Miss Barnes does not want to know Kemp’s past? He probably did not tell you, right? Many things may not even King Pei and Wind Rong know, if you want to know, I still have some time to talk to you now.”
Phoebe Barnes stopped in her tracks, her pretty face cold.
A mocking tug on his lips, not saying anything.
Showing off?
It is an experience worth bragging about, after all, unique.
But …
Without turning around, her tone light and almost non-existent, she asked rhetorically, “Dr. Gu, that’s all the connection you have with him nowadays, isn’t it? Having told me all about it, I’m afraid I won’t have any more opportunities to show off in the future.”
Miley Gu turned her back, her red lips pursed, her face suddenly became a little ugly.
Indeed, this is the only thing she has to show for herself nowadays. She is the only one who is involved in all of Kemp Ross’ past, even if King Pei and Wind Rong are so close to him, they can’t accompany him like she can.
Phoebe Barnes stood unmoving, not caring how she did, and smiled softly again, “He told me that he wasn’t a man who dwelt on the past and didn’t need my sympathy or comfort, could it mean that he didn’t want me to know about that dark history and didn’t want me to suffer the pain he had endured all over again? He’s just hurting for me.”
But it was to counter Miley Gu, talking herself into believing it, would Kemp Ross think so?
As a result, the cynicism in Miley Gu’s eyes deepened, her fists clenched and her lips pursed to death.
Phoebe Barnes shook her head in self-deprecation and walked away without looking back, “Dr. Gu, I’ll be there in a minute, bye.”
In the cold corridor, Miley Gu stood unmoving as the distance between them grew further and further apart.
Around the corner, Phoebe Barnes glanced at her, her small hands squeezing slightly.
How can you not care.
Everything about that man she wanted to know, but she was waiting, waiting for the day he was willing to tell it himself, Miley Gu was nothing, she didn’t care.
King Pei, who was looking down at the case, looked up to see Phoebe Barnes walking in with a not-so-good look on her face, raised a handsome eyebrow and smiled warmly, “Seen her?”
“You are so predictable.” She smiled bitterly and sat down, as if she had been steeply relieved and tired after a good battle.
“Heh …” King Pei got up and poured her a glass of water, hooking his lips, “Looks like you’ve returned victorious.”
Phoebe Barnes grimly bristled, “Where did you win? I lost a long time ago, haven’t you watchers seen it already?”
