Chapter 185 Back to Be Friends?
Phillip took the opportunity to hug Ann and pull her closer, leading her to hug his waist automatically.
His two hands wrapped around her slender waist and shoulders respectively. Their bodies were closely connected in the dark blue water.
Ann finally recovered from her shock and found the two of them in an intimate position.
Her heart skipped a beat and she subconsciously reached out to push him away.
However, Phillip released her before Ann could push him away. He placed a hand on her waist to prevent her from sinking into the water again. "Do as I say. I guarantee that you will be able to learn how to swim in a limited time."
Ann raised her eyes.
His face and hair were wet with water. The sunlight came in and his face therefore shone.
His handsome face was peaceful and even cold.
Phillip looked at Ann with his emotionless eyes as if there was nothing between him and her. He did nothing but teach her how to swim.
Her face was red and her heart was beating so fast. It seemed that Ann was the only one that couldn't get over their lost love.
Ann's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she felt a sense of loss in his heart.
Ann pursed her lips and smiled. "Then... Thank you."
Phillip's thin lips curled into a faint smile as he slowly explained the simplest swimming movements to Ann.
Then he taught Ann, but Ann was indeed not a talented swimmer.
Phillip's eyes were full of tenderness when Ann couldn't master the skills.
He sounded calm, though. "It doesn't matter. Let's change the method."
Therefore, Phillip, with an upright face, held Ann's waist with one hand and her fair thigh with another.
In the name of teaching, he took advantage of her.
He hadn't been so close to Ann for a long time.
At the same time, Fred turned to Aydan who was sitting across from him. Fred usually wore a smile, but not at that moment.
"Aydan, is this what you do in the Moore Group?"
Aydan felt a little guilty because he had been tricked into coming over. He rubbed his nose.
"Mr. Fred, it's interpersonal rather than intercompany..."
After a pause, Aydan straightened up and looked at Fred with guilt inside.
"Besides, Mr. Fred, you did take advantage of this opportunity well. What's so different?"
Although he was not very contented to see Ann as his future sister-in-law, it was Phillip's choice after all.
Aydan couldn't stand it when another man was trying to take his brother's woman away.
Not on his watch!
Fred tapped his long fingers on the table and looked at Aydan for a long time.
Fred smiled and returned to his normal smile.
"Do you think they will patch things up this way?"
Looking at Fred's profound look, Aydan frowned.
He hated dealing with people who looked innocent on the surface, yet was sophisticated deep down.
"That's between my brother and Ann. It has nothing to do with you!"
Fred raised his eyebrows slightly and did not say much.
Ann successfully learned to swim. Although she didn't swim well, the shooting didn't require a professional swimmer. She only needed to look pretty.
When Ann was doing the filming, Phillip was lying on the hospital bed and receiving another examination from the doctor.
Aydan stood to the side and muttered with a frown.
"I told you to restrain yourself. You know that your body has not fully recovered yet, and you have been with her in the water for such a long time. That man, Fred, is very sinister. If your body shuts down, how can you compete with Fred physically..."
Phillip was lying on the hospital bed, feeling so annoyed by Aydan's mumbling.
"Aydan, are you an old nun?"
Aydan felt wrong. He turned to Phillip.
"Isn't this good for you?"
A handsome young man in his youth could make great achievements.
Yet Aydan spent most of his time going to the hospital or going after a girl for Phillip. And he was just called an old nun by Phillip!
Phillip pinched the space between his eyebrows with his long fingers and waited for the doctor to finish the examination.
"How's the filming going?"
Aydan said gloomily, "I heard that it's alright. The progress was quite smooth."
When Phillip thought of the scene where he taught Ann to swim yesterday, he couldn't help but smile gently. He picked up the documents on a table in a good mood and began to deal with them happily. He was waiting for Ann to visit him in the afternoon.
Aydan saw a smile on his brother's face. He wished he hadn't seen that.
A man in love was so blind!
The filming ended because Fred still had follow-up work to handle.
Ann took a taxi to the hospital.
When Ann arrived at the hospital, she saw Melinda's car parked at the side.
Ann paused when she saw the red Maserati. The car window slowly lowered, revealing Melinda's pretty face.
Taking off the sunglasses that covered half of her face, Melinda gazed at the thermal container in Ann's hand. Ann subconsciously tightened her grip.
"Ann, get in." Melinda smiled.
The window rolled up again. Melinda looked at Ann and chuckled.
"I heard that Phillip said that he had decided to give up on you and you two are going back to be friends?"
Ann did not speak.
It was easy for Melinda to be on the watch of their life.
Melinda tapped the steering wheel in front of her with her manicured hand.
The time that had passed seemed long yet brief at the same time.
"It sounds nice. Phillip has ended up in the hospital several times. As a mother, I feel heartbroken."
Ann froze and turned to look at her.
Melinda had a smile on her face. Her eyes were gentle and there was a sense of helplessness. Even the enchanting and charming plum blossom mark at the corner of her eyes seemed to be tinged with sadness.
"Ann, Phillip is my child. I know him. For what he wants, he will either completely occupy it or destroy it. He will never allow himself to be like this."
Ann played with the hem of her clothes. She said nothing with her lips pursed.
Melinda took Ann's hand and patted it.
"Ann, I get it that you are the reasonable one between you two. Phillip has been hospitalized several times. I also understand Phillip would be more unstable if I sent you abroad."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
