Chapter 301 Let's Make An Agreement (Part Two)
Aisha's words made Mary's blushing face turn pale. After being reminded by Aisha, she seemed to have regained all her memories and pain that she had suffered before.
The videos, deception, Sansa, concealment, the slap...
As William noticed the sudden change of expression on Mary's face, his heart broke into pieces. He knew he was wrong. Also, he had been regretting his past actions for the longest time. Could Mary still forgive him?
Silence hung in the air so Victor broke it with a cough. "Ahem. William, when will you go back to the company? Your company is on the verge of collapsing because of me."
"Victor, good for you!" Archer deliberately put his shoulder on Victor's and smiled. "Since when are you in charge of William's company?"
Victor glared at Archer in response.
After thinking for a while, William explained in a cold tone, "Victor is the second largest shareholder of our company."
"Five percent of the shares could make him the second largest shareholder of your company?" Barry was stunned. "How many shares do you have, William?"
"It was originally ninety percent. After giving five percent to Victor, I now have eighty-five percent. " William shrugged. In fact, he almost sold eighty percent of his shares to Adam Chen four years ago. At that time, he really planned to sell the company. Fortunately, he did not.
"This is the dictatorship of a capitalist," Lucas remarked while shaking his head.
Ignoring the ridicule of Lucas, William turned to Victor. "I don't have the time or the energy to manage the company now. Just do whatever you want. If you think it's going to collapse, just earn it back by shooting a movie."
Victor shrugged and said, "Then I want more money."
"Elissa!" As they continued their conversation, Ray pushed the door open and walked in. He looked for Elissa with questioning eyes.
"Ray, I'm here!" Elissa waved her hand.
"Barry, is this your son?" William raised his eyebrows and remarked, "I think he looks more like Selah Shen."
"I think so too!" Jazlyn chimed in.
Barry touched Ray's head, his eyes full of fatherly love. "There are also parts that look like mine. Ray, say hi to Uncle William." "Hello, Uncle William!" Ray greeted obediently.
"Howdy?" William smiled at the little boy.
"Dad, I'm going to play with Ray outside." Elissa let go of William's hand and held Ray's instead. Together, they walked out hand in hand.
"Hey, I haven't agreed yet..." William's mouth twitched. He could not do anything but watch the two kids run out of the ward.
"Alas," said Lucas sadly, "I have no place in my dear Elissa's heart anymore. She used to love me the most, but she was later snatched away by Victor, then by William, and now by Ray!"
"The two kids look like a good match," said Jazlyn, with a look of expectation on her face. Ignoring what Lucas had said, she asked, "Mary, can you arrange a betrothal for them?"
"That's a good idea," Aisha nodded in agreement. "For the first time, I think you're a little clever."
"I agree as well." Barry smiled brightly, as if he was a flower blossoming.
"What? A betrothal?" said William unhappily. "I don't agree. Mary, please stop them!"
"Hmm?" Mary heard someone call her so she looked up at the crowd in a daze. "What did you say?"
William pursed his lips and unconsciously clenched his fists. Just now, Mary must be thinking about what Aisha had said when she came in.
"Mommy, are you tired?" Alick asked as he stood aside. "Grandma said pregnant women get tired easily. Mommy must be tired so she did not hear what Dad said just now."
"Yes. You are right." Mary nodded blankly. "I just woke up so I feel tired!"
"You should sleep now. We are relieved to see you're fine," Aisha said in a hurry. "We will come to see you again after you have a good rest."
"Okay." Mary nodded in agreement. "Go back and have a good rest as well, Aisha." All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
The crowd walked out of the ward in succession. Even though everyone else was leaving, William chose to stay behind. Aisha was about to pull him out, but Archer prevented her from doing so. Instead, it was her that was led out.
"Give them some time alone. They can handle it themselves," Archer said seriously.
"But as soon as I saw William, I got angry when I remembered what he had done!" Aisha shook her head desperately.
"Then how do you feel when you see me?" Archer stared at her with his meaningful eyes and asked, "I haven't seen you for days." She swallowed and felt his dark eyes suck her in like a deep whirlpool.
"Do you miss me?" Archer held Aisha in his arms and breathed heavily. His forehead was pressed against hers.
She was totally attracted by his charm and nodded without hesitation.
Archer chuckled and kissed her soft lips right away. He closed his eyes and savored the moment.
"Hee hee!" Little did they know, Jazlyn and Lucas were watching them from the corner of the corridor. They stared at the two lovebirds while snickering.
Standing beside the two while blushing, Alick tugged the hem of Lucas's shirt. "Daddy Lucas, let's go!"
"Wait a minute!" Lucas stared at the couple kissing in front of him. His saliva almost flowed out in envy.
In the ward, William put his hand on top of Mary's. His heart ached when he felt that her hand tremble.
"Mary..." A touch of bitterness spread in William's heart. "Are you still unwilling to forgive me?"
Mary stared at him for quite some time and shook her head slowly. "For the past two months, I looked forward to your awakening. I didn't want to see you in pain. Of course, I don't want to live alone either. But until now, I still feel uncomfortable. I need time."
"I understand." William nodded with sincerity. "As long as you don't leave me, you can take as much time as you want. I can't live without you, Mary."
She just sighed and nodded in response.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
"Come in, please," William said loudly. The door opened and Watts entered.
"Sir, the doctor said he would give you a general check-up. They are waiting for you in your ward, " announced Watts respectfully.
"I see." William nodded.
"You should go now," said Mary, who was about to get out of the sickbed in a hurry. "Go and let them check you up again."
"I can go there by myself." William hurriedly held her by the arm and added, "Wait for me here. I'll be back."
"But I-"
"Don't move." Shaking his head, he added, "Wait for me. Be a good girl."
"All right." Mary nodded and let him kiss her forehead. She watched as he left the ward with Watts.
After a while in the quiet ward, Selah came in a hurry. After two months, Selah's hair had become longer. Her current hair style made her look cute and at the same time, hot.
During the period of time when William was in a coma, Selah and Mary had established a comradery. They shared their similar experiences in life and parenthood. From time to time, they
also shared the love sparks between Ray and Elissa which made them chuckle. They got along with each other easily, as if they had known each other for a long time.
"Selah, why are you here? Didn't you go to the filming set for a shooting?" Mary asked as Selah sat down.
"I've already finished my shooting." Looking at her belly, Selah said, "I'm relieved to hear that you're fine."
"I made you worried." Mary stuck out her tongue playfully, and Selah laughed.
"I heard that Mr. Lan has also woken up?"
"Yes, he is being examined in the next ward."
"That's good, that's good." Selah nodded in relief. "Is he all right?"
"Humph!" Aisha suddenly pushed the door open and walked in. Upon hearing Selah's words, she snorted. "That guy is very lucky. He's out of danger now."
Selah laughed. "Do you still have a problem with your brother-in-law?"
"Humph!" Aisha's face was full of annoyance and anger. "I haven't agreed making him my brother- in-law yet! I really feel sorry for my sister if I don't punish him."
"I will definitely support my boss's decision!" Jazlyn also squeezed into the ward. "Punish the bad guy!"
"That sounds good!" Selah echoed excitedly.
Mary was confused. It seemed her friends and sister did not want to let William go easily. "How are you going to punish him? He just woke up. Besides, he almost died saving me."
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't be fooled by him. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have been kidnapped in the first place, my silly sister!" Aisha shook her head in anger and
disappointment.
"That's right, Mary. We must give him a punishment, even if it's a little." Jazlyn said seriously, "As police officers, we punish the criminals in two ways. One is physically, and the other is mentally."
"Mr. Lan isn't in good health now. The first method is not working." Selah rejected the first method with a smile. "So you want to give a psychological blow to him?"
"Well said." Aisha nodded in agreement. "It's a more painful punishment to dissipate the enemy's will. What do you say, Mary?"
Mary blinked her eyes. She really wanted to get involved and see how it would go. "Is there any specific method?"
"Well, like this..."
The four women gathered around. Their tiny circle looked as if they were planning something extraordinary.
"Okay! That's it!" After five minutes of discussion, Aisha waved her hand and reminded them, "This task need to be successful!"
"Aww! Okay! Yes, madam!"
In the next ward, the doctor had just finished the general check-up for William. "Mr. Lan, you have fully recovered. However, you have to be hospitalized for a few more days for observation. If everything goes well, you can leave the hospital soon."
Hearing that, William was relieved. He could not wait to go to Mary's ward. As soon as he opened the door, he saw several women looking at him with dangerous eyes.
"What's wrong?" William asked with a frown.
"William," Mary called him in an alarming tone, "let's make an agreement.
