Chapter 297 Stop Pretending

"What do you mean? You need to come to the hospital today! Otherwise, I'll cause a scene at your school and expose you as being a heartless person who wouldn't even save her own mother!" George was in "It's been a while since we last spoke, and it seems like you've become even more shameless." After Angela finished speaking, she abruptly ended the call.

George hadn't expected Angela to have the audacity to hang up on him. He was on the verge of exploding in rage! He tried calling Angela a few more times, but each time, she ended his call. Later on, he could been blocked!

"The audacity! How dare that brat block me!" George was fuming. He left the hospital in a rush and headed to Angela's residence. He knew Angela's address in Springgate Estates, but upon his arrival, Oliver in With a stern expression, Oliver set down his meal and questioned George. "What's the matter?"

"I need to see Angela!" George was still seething, and his demeanor turned even more hostile after being stopped by Oliver. "Mrs. Lawson does not wish to see you." After Oliver spoke, he resumed his meal at the table in the yard.

George was taken aback by the other man's words. "I am Angela's father! How dare she refuse to see me? Let me in immediately!" he exclaimed angrily. However, Oliver completely disregarded him and contin He didn't seem to care about the potential ridicule or embarrassment he would face then. He simply demanded to see Angela immediately.

"Shush!" Oliver eventually stood up and opened the gate. Just as George was about to enter the gate triumphantly, Oliver lifted him up and tossed him several meters away from the gate. "You can continue sh "Ouch! Ouch! It hurts!" George lay on the ground, howling without any concern for his

dignity. With no one else around, he howled even louder. "Stop pretending. Why are you clutching your stomach? You fell on your bottom!" Oliver found it rather amusing to watch the man howling on the groun George ceased holding his stomach. His bottom was indeed a bit sore, but he was too

embarrassed to clutch it. The fact that he was lying down on the ground and howling showed how desperate he was-the police

had practically cornered him into this. Since he was unable to swallow his pride and nurse his bottom, George began to threaten Oliver once more. "You better bring Angela out! Otherwise, I'll make sure you pa

"You-!" George had no choice but to call James. James was surprised that George had personally gone to Springgate Estates to look for Angela, and he didn't understand why he had to call Angela to inform he However, when James called Angela, the call went unanswered. His assistant alerted him of a meeting that he had. He didn't hesitate to proceed directly to the conference room, as he figured that Angela woul Meanwhile, George continued shouting outside Springgate Estates even after telling James to give Angela a call. After Oliver's harsh treatment, George made sure to keep some distance. However, he continu Oliver told him that the house had good soundproofing, but he thought that someone would still hear him in the end. But to his surprise, no one came down to get him even after an hour. Didn't James notify Ang James felt like no one in the family was reliable at that moment. George, in particular, was unreliable not only because he abandoned the company, but also because he kept involving himself in embarrassing i "I just finished a meeting, and I forgot to call her. Give me a moment." After saying that, James hung up and called Angela.

Meanwhile, in Springgate Estates, Angela closed her book after reading for a while. She was feeling anxious over the banquet that was happening the next day. Although she had only met Cassandra a few tim

In an attempt to clear her mind, Angela decided to practice her acupuncture techniques. She had learned medicine from her grandmother since she was young, and over the past decade, she had perfected he Often, practicing needlework allowed her to calm her mind and focus solely on the tiny needles. It helped her to block out distractions coming from the outside world. After half an hour of practice, Angela felt a t After a quick wash-up. Angela noticed several missed calls on her phone. All the missed calls were from James, so Angela returned the call. "Is everything okay?" Angela's tone was not warm- she was just concerned that there might be an issue with Zacharias. That was what prompted her to call back.

"Dad is looking for you. He's downstairs. Also, you should unblock his number." George only came to bother James because he couldn't reach Angela on the phone. This was giving James a headache, and he But what could he do? Angela seemed to have disappeared, and she wasn't answering his calls. If Angela hadn't called him back, he would have thought she had blocked him, too.

"What's with the attitude? Mr. Kins, are you ordering me around?" she snapped. As soon as ames heard Angela's words, he knew something was wrong. He quickly tried to remedy the situation. "Please, for Jonathan's sake, don't argue with our dad. Just unblock his number."

'He's

your dad, not mine." Angela replied. She had drawn clear boundaries after leaving the Kins Family. She could still recall vivid memories of how they had looked at and treated her. How can James choose to co Alright, he's downstairs now. Just go meet him. He wants you to go to the hospital to see mom. I promise he won't cause any trouble!" James uttered.
