Chapter 166 Getting Rejected
Chapter 166 Getting Rejected
After hanging up the phone, he recalled that Melinda had taken him to the Clear Water Town when he
was a child and that there was indeed an old acquaintance there.
That acquaintance must be William.
But every time Melinda brought him over, she never allowed him to meet this man.
Thinking of William suddenly asking them to break up, Phillip began to put things together.
Perhaps, this matter was related to the grudge between William and his mother.
...
When Ann woke up, she found that Phillip was still in a coma.
She shook her head and woke up a little.
She felt so annoyed that she had fallen asleep.
She then took out her phone and was about to look at the time when she found that there were several
missed calls which were all from Emery.
The time was already five in the afternoon.
She started and hurriedly tried to get up.
Then she noticed that Phillip was holding her hand. She tried to struggle, then she found that Phillip
was not holding on so tightly.
Heaving a sigh of relief, she quickly pulled out her hand and prepared to leave.
Out of the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of the half-empty bottle beside her. After a
moment's hesitation, she reached out and slowed the drop a little bit.
Out of the ward, Ann called Emery as she walked towards the elevator.
"Hello Emery, where are you now? I'm sorry, I just had something to do. Have you arrived at the
hospital? I'll pick you up now..."
"Miss Scott, I'm in the middle of a blind date. What I need is someone who is committed to marriage.
Since you can't let go of your ex-boyfriend, it would be better if we stopped seeing each other!"
After that, the other side directly hung up the phone.
Ann was in a daze, not understanding what was going on.
A blind date?
In other words, she didn't answer her phone for a few hours, and he quickly moved on to the next date?
Moreover, the reason was that she could not let go of her ex-boyfriend and would be unfaithful to Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
marriage?
It was just because she did not answer the phone, so he came to this series of conclusions?
Was that how college professors think?
Although she didn't feel too attached to this man, she was worried about how she would have to
explain to her father and be set up on another blind date.
'Ding'
The elevator doors opened. As she was about to enter, she was pulled from behind.
Ann turned around and saw Aydan with a disgruntled look on his face.
"Aydan."
She was being so polite to him that made him feel very annoyed.
"Why aren't you taking care of my brother in the ward? Where are you going?"
Ann was silent for a moment, then she looked up at Aydan,
"Aydan, me and your brother... Mr. Phillip is no longer related. I think there's no reason for me to stay
there and take care of him," she said, neither servile nor pushy.
When Aydan heard this, he became even more annoyed.
"Why are you so heartless? If it wasn't for you, my brother wouldn't go to work every day like he was a
machine, and drink himself into hospital."
Also, why did my brother faint today? Wasn't it because he went to look for you? Because you've been
so ruthless, he hasn't cooperated with treatment or eaten much for the past few days. My brother
treated you well, right? Now he's sick, what's wrong with you taking care of him?"
If the doctor had not said that the disease would be worse if it went on like this, he would not have been
willing to let this hard-hearted woman take care of his brother!
Ann clenched her fists, but she forced a smile on her face.
"Aydan, I think you have overestimated my influence on him. He is the president of the Moore Group,
and he has professional staff to take care of him when he is in the hospital. And you don't want me to
be entangled with him anymore, do you? Wouldn't it be better for him to think I'm a hard-hearted
woman?"
After saying that, Ann politely nodded at Aydan and calmly entered the elevator to leave.
Aydan stood where he was. He clenched his fist and held it to his lips. He walked left and right several
times and was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
He saw Ann crying in front of the bed, which showed that this woman was still in love with his brother.
However, he didn't expect that this woman would remain unmoved after he said so much!
How irritating!
Calming his mood outside, Aydan pushed open the door and entered.
He originally thought that his brother should still be asleep at this time, but when he entered the room
he saw Phillip leaning against the headboard, looking at him coldly.
"Phillip... you're awake." Aydan felt a chill down his spine.
"Who told you to tell her that?" Phillip was expressionless.
"You heard it all?" "Since you heard it, you should be able to see what kind of woman she is. It is not
worth torturing yourself for such a woman!" Aydan curled his lips and was somewhat dissatisfied.
"How's the matter I asked you to do?" Phillip was too lazy to talk nonsense with him.
"It's about time. We have settled the terms of the contract. If everything goes well, we just need to wait
for the other party to come back and formally sign the contract..."
At the mention of work, Aydan's expression also became a little serious.
"However, in addition to the sky-high reward this time, Gael Group asked that our people be banned
from any part of the filming process. We don't even have a plan yet. Isn't it too risky?"
Phillip, on the other hand, was pretty cool about it.
"Anything in the world is accompanied by risks."
...
The Moore Group
Now William's condition had improved a little, and Ann's leave from the company was over so she
decided to return.
When she was having lunch in the staff canteen, she accidentally heard something from colleagues.
To completely open the brand market, the company spent a lot of money to hire Fred Anderson, who
was known as a perfume genius, to film the commercial MV for the next season.
Fred Anderson?
Ann was surprised, he was going back?
Her deepest impression of Fred Anderson was that
He was always gentle and polite to people, but at his mother's funeral, he cried like a child.
Ann still remembered that Fred said that she was the first person to see him cry.
Later, she was thrown into his hands by her mentor to study.
The two of them were truly familiar with each other.
At this moment, Daisy, who was sitting opposite her, knocked on the plate in front of her.
"Are you really going to keep dating?"
Ann came back to her senses and looked at Daisy weakly, "Yes."
She had already made an appointment after work today, and the location was close to the hospital.
After the blind date, she could directly go back to the hospital to take care of her father.
"Have you ever wondered why Emery would suddenly reject you?" Daisy asked.
Speaking of this, Ann also wondered.
"Maybe he is unhappy that I stood him up, or maybe it's because the train of thought of these high
intellectuals is different from ours."
Daisy couldn't say anything.
For Phillip to do such a thing, it left no trace.
Ann sighed, "But it doesn't matter. I just need to spend more time to get to know new people, even
though it's a little troublesome."
