Angela was totally confused. She wondered if Stanley was interested in Nancy.
"If he does not respond, you should make the first move and send him a ssage. You can ask him what he is busy with, " said Angela, offering Nancy her cell phone. According to Angela, Nancy should not just wait and do nothing. Opportunities like this don't co twice.
"What if he is busy at work?" said Nancy, nervously taking the cell phone from Angela's hand.
"Oh, co on! It's just a ssage, not a phone call. He won't be bothered! He would just read the ssage, respond if he wants to, and that's it."
That sounded reasonable, thought Nancy. "Okay then, I'll send him a ssage!"
Nancy searched for Stanley's WeChat account on the cell phone and then tried to type sothing. But she was still too shy to take the first step and send him a ssage. Angela beca anxious. She took the cell phone back from Nancy and started typing herself. "What are you busy with? I am all alone at the hospital and am getting really bored!"
Angela was at least right about that. Gage was so busy that he could spend no more than an hour every day with Nancy in the hospital.
What about the remaining ti? Usually the caregivers and nurses of the hospital gave her company.
Nancy wanted to take back her cell phone. She said, "Angela, I don't feel ssaging him would be right..."
"Don't worry. It's just a casual ssage... Emm... If he asks why I sent him the ssage, I'll say that I was going to send it to Arvin, but accidentally sent it to him!"
Nancy looked at Angela. She was sure that it would not be that easy to fool Stanley.
"Look Nancy, what's done is done. I can't retrieve the ssage now!" Anyways, she wanted to see Stanley.
After the ssage had been sent, the two girls continuously willed the cell phone to ring. After a long while of waiting, each secretly wondered why Stanley had not responded. Angela had been so sure that he would respond.
As ti passed, they beca more and more disappointed. They had waited quite long for his reply. Maybe he didn't want to reply. Knowing that the certainty of not receiving a reply from Stanley had saddened Nancy, Angela started feeling that she should have restrained herself from sending the ssage. Maybe, he was not interested in Nancy.
Seeing that it had been quite so ti, Angela got up to leave. Just as she was wishing her a speedy recovery, the door of the ward flew open. Surprised, the girls looked at the door and were delighted when they saw a panting Stanley standing there.
Happy to see him, Angela ran to him and gleefully patted his shoulder. "Why didn't you ssage back! Nancy has been waiting for you, " Angela smiled.
"Angela! Please stop!" admonished Nancy turning very red. She stopped Angela from saying anything more.
Stanley took a deep breath and glanced at Nancy with his beautiful eyes. He liked the way she was blushing. "I was on duty out
“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.
“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagent. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlent,” said Rachel Ruan.
Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagent a hundred years ago...

When Angela entered the pub, she found that the music was very loud. Grimacing, she found a table in the corner and ordered the most expensive wine the pub had to offer.
Once the waiter had served her drink, she looked around to see if anybody was looking her way. Seeing that nobody was paying attention to her, she took out a small white packet. She tipped the powder in the packet into the wine and stirred it with her finger while looking around to see if sobody had seen her.
As far as she had learnt, Randal and so of his colleagues regularly ca to that pub to relax themselves after hospital hours.
She had ordered the most expensive cocktail in the house because she knew that Randal was a stingy and greedy man. If he knew that the cocktail was the most expensive one in the bar, he would definitely be tempted not to refuse her offer.
While Angela was waiting for Randal to make an appearance, a lot of the other guys had approached her for a dance and drinks. But, she had rejected everybody as she was on a mission! Just then, she saw a familiar figure enter the bar.
She looked at the person and panicked, "No, no, no... No! Why hasn't Randal co yet?" she angrily thought to herself.
Angela did not want the man to see her there. She lowered her head, hoping that the man wouldn't notice her.
However, as the man got closer to her, she had no choice but to raise her head. Once her eyes settled on Arvin's cold face, she tentatively smiled.
"Big... Arvin, hey! What a coincidence!"
"Not exactly!" he angrily replied. "I have co to get you!" Arvin, a handso man wearing a well-tailored business suit, attracted the attention of the many won present at the pub. Angela stared at two won who were desperately trying to catch his attention.
How dare they? He was her man!
"Emm...I've got sothing to do here." Angela tightly held the cocktail in her hand, scared that her dirty trick would be disclosed.
