Chapter 141 Is It Tiring
In the underground garage of the Moore Group.
Ann pulled open the car door and got on the passenger seat. Then she tightly clutched the seat belt with both hands.
She was thinking about how to persuade William to allow her to be with Phillip without stimulating his condition.
As Phillip turned his head to look at Ann, he happened to see her sitting there with a tense body, her fingers clutching the seat belt, frowning as she pondered.
He pursed his thin lips and stretched out his hand to grab Ann's. Her palm was sweating.
He spontaneously took a tissue and wiped the sweat off her palms.
The next second, he reached out and grabbed her hand with their fingers crossed.
Ann unconsciously bit her lower lips when she turned her head sideways and caught his gentle and delicate eyes.
"Phillip, what if Dad still disagrees with us being together?"
"Then I'll kneel and beg him."
Ann was so shocked that she looked up at him in disbelief.
Phillip did not seem to be joking.
His long fingers gently pinched Ann's soft palm. The look on his face was indifferent as if what he said just now was no big deal.
"William only wants you to be happy. What I need to do is to make him believe that I am the one and the only one who can bring you happiness!"
After a pause, Phillip curled his sexy thin lips into a faint smile, his black eyes on Ann as beautiful as pearls.
"If this can settle William's worries about us being with each other, then I will be more than willing to do so."
Hearing Phillip say this in such an indifferent tone, Ann was a little stunned. At this moment, she had mixed feelings in her mind.
Phillip was supposed to be respectable and always above others!
But he was willing to kneel because of her!
"So, all you have to do is trust me and stay with me."
Looking into Phillip's deep eyes, Ann nodded firmly, her long and curly eyelashes trembling.
"OK."
Halfway there, Ann received a call from the hospital.
"Is that William's family? It is the Harmony Hospital."
Hearing this, Ann's face instantly turned pale and she hurriedly held Phillip's hand.
"Phillip, drive to the Harmony Hospital. Dad fainted!"
At first, Ann was going to take Phillip's advice and hire William a private doctor.
But William insisted that he had no problems with his health and dismissed the private doctor.
Ann had no choice but to hire an assistant to take care of William during workdays.
William had been invalid all the time. So Ann couldn't help fell into deep concern when came to know he fainted.
With Ann's flustered hand in his hand, Phillip changed the direction.
"Don't let your imagination run wild."
Feeling the warmth in his palm, she tried to calm herself down.
"Right, maybe I am just thinking too much. Dad will be fine..."
When they arrived at the ward, William was still unconscious.
"How is he?" Phillip stopped the doctor who had just come out of the ward.
The doctor originally wanted to reprimand him. But seeing Phillip's serious face, he softened his tone.
"Fortunately, he called the ambulance in time. He is only temporarily unconscious now."
After a while, the doctor emphasized, "His body is already weak. And his heart disease has reached the middle and late stages. He must undergo surgery. You should have sent him to the hospital earlier." The doctor couldn't help sigh in his mind that nowadays many young people had a rotten interior beneath a fine exterior. They didn't even want to spend the money to take the elders to the hospital. What was wrong with the younger generation?
Phillip listened to the doctor patiently without explaining.
With all the doctor's instructions kept in mind, he saw the doctor away.
Then, he called the driver to pick up Nikki at the kindergarten.
After everything settled, Phillip entered the ward and sat down beside Ann.
Sensing him coming in, she shifted her gaze away from William.
Her sight fell on the infusion bottle on the opposite shelf. She quietly watched the transparent liquid slid down the thin pipe before dripping down.
With her eyes filled with blankness, she muttered with a soft voice.
"Phillip, if he fails to get through this, what should I do?"
Phillip reached out to hug Ann and let her lean on his shoulder.
His gentle voice came up, "He won't. The doctor said that William is only temporarily unconscious and will wake up soon."
Ann withdrew her gaze and lowered her eyes.
Her long eyelashes fully covered the expression in her eyes, hiding her mixed thoughts.
"Phillip, is it tiring to be with me?"
She was always timid, self-abased, and troublesome. He had to accommodate her all the time, right?
But even so, she still wanted to be with him.00000
