Chapter 140 He Must Hold On
After hearing Daisy's words, Ann had seriously reflected on herself.
She had always been unconfident in this relationship.
Because of what happened five years ago, she had always been self-abased.
Although Phillip had tried to dispel the uneasiness in her heart and give her security from time and time, she just failed to get rid of the self-abasement.
She had tried to respond. At that time when she was in face of Melinda's oppression, she had firmly asserted that she would not give up.
She thought that she had come out already.
But that was only because she knew that Melinda would not do anything for real.
However, when William said that he would renounce her, Phillip was also at the end of his tether.
At that time, inferiority and cowardice in her heart just flooded over Ann.
It reminded her that she was not worthy of him at the beginning. It had already reached the limit as she had enjoyed his affection and gentleness for such a long time. He was so outstanding that he should be with a girl who was his match.
It was just that when she thought this way, she had already let him down for what he had done for so long...
At least, within the deadline given by William, she should try to seek a solution with him.
She knew that everything William did was for her own good.
Perhaps he did this out of some difficulties.
Ever since Melinda saw the agreement that Phillip had prepared, she had been uneasy all the time. She had given up a lot in raising Phillip! It was until now did he had finally gained his current position.
Just one more step, Phillip would be able to take over the Moore family completely.
At that time, she would be the head of the Moore family and would not be looked down upon anymore.
And she didn't have to worry about things being exposed at that time...
But if Phillip continued to stay with Ann and was discovered by someone, then everything would be ruined! Thinking of this, Melinda's beautiful face blazed with ferociousness.
She would never allow that to happen!
William had just gone downstairs and was about to go to the school to pick up Nikki when he received a call from Melinda.
"William, what exactly did you tell Ann? Do you really want them to become a joke?"
Although Melinda had deliberately suppressed her anger, her voice was still a bit sharp. She was in huge anger.
William was slightly irritated in face of Melinda's immediate query.
"Are you kidding me? It was you who heartlessly abandoned Ann out of vanity. If you haven't done that back then, how could you be in this situation?" Hearing this, Melinda spat on the phone.
"William, stop dredging up. Tell me, did Phillip bring you an agreement? Are you trying to retaliate against me with this?"
Melinda couldn't help think that if William had signed that agreement, then she would have to live slavishly dependent on him and Jane.
William sneered, "Melinda, no one will abandon their children for wealth except you."
Melinda took a deep breath and said as if she had made up her mind.
"William, cut the crap. I am just calling to tell you that if Ann doesn't break up with Phillip, I will go to her myself!"
William was in great rage hearing this.
He could even think of what Melinda would say if she talked to Ann personally.
"Melinda, why are you so iron-hearted? No matter what, Ann is your daughter. Why did you do it to her?"
"They must break up. If I am indecisive like you, things will never go well."
"Melinda..."
The phone was hung up.
William glared at the phone in his hand.
Suddenly, his chest heaved violently that he couldn't help have his mouth widely opened and cover his chest with one hand. His face turned extremely pale.
He slowly leaned against the wall, trying to calm his breathing.
Then he called the ambulance with a trembling hand.
When he finally heard the ambulance, William uttered a sigh of relief before he closed his eyes.
He told himself that he must hold on, at least, to the day when he could see Ann achieve happiness.¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶
