Facing Anna’s inquiry, Rupert’s throat was dry and he didn’t know how to answer.
“Talk, pimp!” did not get a response, Anna could not help but to urge out.
Half a day, Rupert finally spoke, “I will see to it.”
Anna was very dissatisfied with this answer.
What do you mean by “I’ll take care of it.
This is a matter of life and death, why does it seem so light from Rupert’s mouth?
Isn’t Rupert always dutiful?
How come when Mrs. Robertson is sick, this is the attitude.
Anna could hardly recognize the Rupert in front of her.
When she couldn’t get the answer she wanted, Anna simply grabbed the nurse passing by, “Nurse, what is Mrs. Robertson’s condition now, is she very sick and can be cured, right?”
The nurse recognized Anna, “Mrs. Robertson you first take it easy, now Mrs. Robertson’s condition has been controlled, temporarily not life-threatening, the follow-up can also be cured, as long as …”
“Enough!”
Not waiting for the nurse’s words to finish, Rupert will out loud reprimand, “This is my family business, busy with your own things on the line.”
The elegant and gentle face was now full of hostility and horror.
A chill spread from the bottom of the nurse’s feet upwards, she shivered fiercely and ran away without hesitation.
“Rupert!” Anna also had a fire in her heart, “Do you think I can’t find out what ails my mother-in-law this way? I can still go ask other nurses and doctors.”
“If you ask one, I’ll fire one.” Rupert said faintly.
Anna: “…”
Crazy, this man!
“Am I some kind of beast that you need to be so wary of?” Anna tone incredulous with a hint of hurt, under the eyes vaguely wet light in the flow, “Rupert, I am your wife, the person lying inside is my mother-in-law ah.”
Rupert is silent.
It was because Anna was his wife, the Robertson family’s daughter-in-law, that he could not say anything.
“Anna, I’m in a mess, I’ll ask my assistant to take you home first, okay?” Rupert changed the subject.
Anna’s expression sank, “You are determined not to let me know, right?”
“Go home first, be a good girl.”
If it was before, this word “good” would make Anna feel spoiled.
But now, it had become a substitute word for coercion and concealment.
He didn’t even bother to perfunctory, a good word, just to make her obey.
But she was never anyone’s canary!
“Mrs. Robertson…” the assistant came forward, full of torment, “Or I’d better send you back first?”
Anna coldly refused, “No need! I have my own hands and feet, I can go back.”
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the elevator.
After taking a few steps, she stood again and turned her head to look at the assistant, “I advise you not to come to see me off, otherwise I can’t help but ask you something, and you won’t be able to keep this job.”
The assistant smiled sarcastically, “Why Mrs. Robertson, Mr. Rupert actually said just now are just angry words.”
“Angry words?” Anna also followed and laughed, only the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes, “Then do you want to bet with me, I’ll ask these nurses and doctors in the hospital now, if they are fired, you will be responsible?”
This-
The assistant’s expression instantly became embarrassed.
Scratching his head, he didn’t know whether to look at Rupert or Anna for a while.
Anna had long expected this result, pursed her red lips, and turned to leave.
“Mr. Rupert,” the assistant looked at Anna’s back and spoke weakly, “Mrs. Robertson seems to be really angry, what should we do?”
