Callum decided to take Angel to the hospital. However, he did not tell Angel the purpose of going to the hospital. Instead, he just mentioned that he wanted to visit his friend.
On the way, Angel had been muttering to herself. Callum’s attitude toward her had been very cold during these days. She was wondering why did he suddenly want to take her to see his friend today?
Angel could only wonder, she didn’t dare to ask either. Callum was the one who drove the car, he even stopped to buy flowers and fruits on the way.
When they arrived at the hospital at noon, Angel took the initiative to hold the flowers while Callum take the fruits and walked toward Emily’s ward.
In the ward, Emily was making a call with her brows furrowed. On the other end of the phone, Azalea said in a tearful voice, “Emily, I really can’t live any longer. If my mother didn’t find out earlier, I would have died already. I don’t know what Thomas said to you. I know that you must be angry at me and think that I was threatening you but I really didn’t do that! If my mother hadn’t cried and said that she would kill herself if I died, I would not stay alive. In fact, I am living for the sake of my mother!”
Emily didn’t believe Azalea’s words anymore. She then said in a harsh voice, “Everyone knows that it’s better to live than to die. Think about your mother before you want to kill yourself, think about how painful she would be if you die. I hope such a stupid thing will never happen again!”
“Emily I was wrong! I will live well for my mother. But Emily, what can I do now? Wolf Group banned me already, I have no movie to film, no advertisement, and no variety to shoot, how can I support myself and my mother?”
“Is there no other way apart from being an actress?” Emily asked.
“For a top student like you, there are surely a lot of choices for you. However, I am different from you, I am not as studious as you. When I was in school, my grades were not good. I was able to go to college because what I learned was to act, so I don’t know how to do anything but act.”
Emily was extremely speechless when she listened to Azalea’s words. When she was in school, she was a genius, her grades had always been top. Needless to say, Callum was also an extremely clever person. Why didn’t Azalea inherit any of their traits?
Emily thought to herself. Azalea was still crying on the other side, “Emily, I’ll never try to kill myself again. I’ll work hard to earn money to support my mom and you. But now, my career as an actress has been terminated by Wolf Group. Can you please help me one more time? Can you tell Wolf Group to remove me from the blacklist?”
“This…” Emily didn’t agree. She already felt very embarrassed when she went to beg Rammos the last time. How could she go to beg him again this time? Besides, Callum was abroad last time. Emily thought that she scolded Callum yesterday, what would he think about her if Callum found out she went to beg Rammos again?
Emily was in deep thought and she did not speak. Suddenly, the door of the ward opened before Callum and Angel came in.
Emily didn’t expect Callum to come to visit her again, and she didn’t expect that Angel would come along with him.
Emily was extremely surprised and then she quickly said to Azalea, “I have something to do, I’ll talk to you in a few days.”
After hanging up the phone, Emily looked at Callum and Angel. Although Angel was raised by Veronica, she actually knew Emily. Veronica’s intention wasn’t good either, she just wanted to take advantage of her. So when Angel was growing up, she always tried to play some tricks.
One of the things was to stab Emily in the back. Veronica purposely made Angel find out what happened between Callum and Emily. She also smeared Emily in front of Angel on purpose.
Angel knew that Emily was her biological mother, but she did not have a good impression on her. Instead, she hated Emily from the bottom of her heart.
Seeing that the person Callum brought her to see was Emily, Angel’s heart dropped.
Angel wondered if Fandrey and Deborah knew that Callum had brought her to see Emily.
Angel knew that it was obvious that Callum still cared about Emily since he brought her to visit her. Angel figured she had to take advantage of this opportunity because Callum was mad at her.
As she thought, she walked to the side of the bed with the flowers in her arms. Then, she greeted Emily affectionately, “Hello, I am Angel! I came to see you with my dad, this is the flower for you!”
She handed the flowers to Emily with a smile on her face. Emily was stunned for a moment before she reached out to take the flowers. It was not good to scold Callum in front of Angel so she could only say, “Thank you, that’s very kind of you!”
When Callum saw that Emily did not show that she was unhappy, he was relieved and put the fruits on the table.
Knowing that Emily wouldn’t embarrass him in front of Angel, he immediately asked, “Are you feeling better?”
“Yes,” Emily replied faintly.
“Have you had your lunch?” Callum asked again.
“Yeah, I’ve eaten,” Emily was still indifferent, she did not spare a look at Angel and Callum at all. Instead, she fiddled with the mobile phone in her hand.
Callum thought when Emily saw Angel, she would be as affectionate as a mother who saw their daughter and would take the initiative to talk to Angel in closing the gap.
So when Callum saw that Emily didn’t take the initiative to talk to Angel and never inquiry about her, he knew he had to do something, “Angel, give Emily some fruit to eat.”
Angel immediately picked up an orange and peeled it, “Emily, here you go!”
“Thank you,” Emily did not refuse to take the orange. She reached out to take it but she did not eat it. Instead, she put it on the bedside table.
When Angel saw that Emily didn’t eat the orange, she picked up an apple and began peeling it. Callum was very satisfied with what Angel did. After peeling the apple, Angel quickly handed the apple to Emily, “Emily, here, eat the apple instead!”
Emily reached out to take it and smiled at her, “Thank you, Ms. Floyd. My stomach is not feeling very well so the doctor asked me not to eat cold food.”
Emily’s voice was very soft, and her tone was also very gentle, there was also a tad of apologetic in it. If someone was not familiar with her, they would think that she was really sorry.
But Callum knew Emily very well since he used to be very in love with her. It could be said that he knew Emily like the back of his hand.
When Emily was speaking to Angel gently, he could clearly see the coldness in her eyes.
Callum was a little stunned. He could understand why Emily hated him, but there was no reason for her to hate his daughter, right?
No matter how Angel was innocent and she had nothing to do with it. Callum really couldn’t understand why Emily would treat Angel like this.
At first, he wanted to tell Emily about Angel and let her get closer to Angel. If Emily liked Angel very much, he would then tell Angel the truth.
But now it seemed that Emily didn’t want to admit that Angel was her daughter at all.
Callum was extremely puzzled. He couldn’t understand why Emily was being like that, but he understood one thing. He knew that bringing Angel to see her was a waste of time.
He stayed in the ward for a while but after seeing the growing impatience on Emily’s face, Callum had to say goodbye.
