Chapter 1737
In fact, Wilson did it deliberately.
Desmond was completely sure of this point.
Looking at the mess of porridge on the floor, Desmond felt extremely annoyed and regretful. The servant used a broom and a mop to clean the floor, and Desmond's heart was twitching. He hadn't even had a single spoonful of the porridge!
As there were so many elders present, while today was the Mid-Autumn Festival, Desmond didn't dare to lose his temper on the scene. His plan of showing off the porridge in front of Wilson turned out to be a complete failure. He was so annoyed that he didn't want to eat the dinner. He then found an excuse and leave the villa. He needed to go somewhere else in order to recover from the mental blows he had suffered tonight.
After the incident of Desmond and his porridge, the dinner party went on smoothly and happily.
At the end of the party, Wilson announced briefly the marriage between the Chin family and the Amery family.
Bellamy was astonished and delighted at the same time.
This was good news. After all, Wilson had reached the marriageable age, and there was once gossips about he and a movie star being together. Compared with the movie star, Abby Amery was a graceful young lady from a rich and powerful family. She was indeed a better choice in the mind of Bellamy.
Meadow was not as happy as her husband. She was afraid that this so-called "marriage between the two families" might turn out to be in vain in the end.
In all fairness, Meadow didn't dislike Abby, and she even liked the latter very much.
Abby was a beautiful young lady, yet she was mature and shrewd in her nature. Her behavior was graceful and decent, and she was good at pleasing the elders. However, Meadow still favored Tina more than Abby. Most importantly, her son's preference was also Tina.
Meadow had clearly observed Wilson's eye expression when he looked at Tina, which confirmed that Wilson treated Tina as s soul mate.
After the whole family of Wilson's uncle left the villa, the car of the Amery family arrived soon afterward.
After the guests were all left one by one, standing in the hallway, Meadow tilted her head and looked at her son, who was beside her. She hesitated for a moment, and then asked. "Wilson, why didn't you bring Tina back home tonight?"
Wilson looked into his mother's eyes.
He recalled what happened on the Chinese Lovers' Day. At that time, he and Tina were dating in a restaurant, and happened to meet Meadow.
At that time, Wilson even had an illusion that his wife was having a cordial conversation with his mother...
However, now he only felt as if his heart had been frozen by the icy feeling of separation from Tina, whenever he thought of the happy moments of the past.
Wilson pursed his lips in silence.
Without saying anything, he went upstairs, and Meadow could only see his back figure which was tough and cool.
Bellamy, who had come out of the side hall with a cup of tea in his hand, saw that his wife was standing there with a worried expression. He asked, "Honey, why do you look worried? Isn't it a good thing for Wilson to marry Ab by. Aren't you constantly nagging about having a grandson or granddaughter as soon as possible?"
Meadow glanced at her husband meaningfully.
Noticing the confusion in his eyes, she said angrily, "It's none of your business!"
Bellamy was petrified."..."
The sun hung high in the sky and shone brilliantly. The three days of holiday break had come to an end.
Although the holiday break was only a short one, it had still caused a sense of laziness in many people. After the morning meeting, the working pace in the office was relatively slow, and some of the female colleagues gathered together to gossip when the editor-in-chief was absent for a while.
When Tina went out of the tea room after making a cup of coffee, some of her colleagues were discussing a piece of news that had just been edited.
Seeing that Tina was approaching, Bonnie's expression changed slightly. She quickly blocked the computer screen with her body and clicked the mouse to shrink or turn off the webpage.
But it was too late.
Tina had already seen the content of it.
The news report was about the marriage between the Chin family and the Amery family. The text at the bottom of the screen said that Abby Amery had gone to the Chin family as the fiancee of Wilson yesterday.
Although the reporter didn't take any photo of Abby in the Chin family yesterday, it was still enough to reveal a lot of information.
Tina pulled out her chair and sat down.
Bonnie knew that there was a special relationship between Tina and Wilson. She couldn't help but approach Tina and whisper, "Tina, are you all right?"
Tina smiled. "It's fine. I knew it a long time ago."
Before the news was released, she overheard it inadvertently in the Amery's Group, and Abby also had told her about it in person.
Therefore, Tina was not surprised by the news report.
Bonnie was stunned when she heard this. Seeing that Tina's expression was natural, Bonnie felt relaxed.
Tina's eyes demonstrated no emotional change. She woke up the computer and continued to work as if nothing special had happened.
But the tips of her fingers, which were originally pink, had become white as her fingers were pressed against her knees very tightly.
In fact, Tina was sadder than she appeared to be after hearing the news.
It was in the evening.
After getting off work, and before going to the private hospital where Isla was hospitalized, Tina went to another hospital in a different direction.
When she got off of the taxi, she saw that Dylan was waiting near the entrance.
He was wearing a casual suit, and his expression was cool and proud. After seeing her, he smiled gently. "Tina, come over here!"
"Uh-huh!" Tina nodded. "How's Uncle doing?"
Dylan replied, "Not bad. He has recovered a lot, and becomes more energetic now!" Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Tina said, "Well... Let's go. I want to have a look at him!"
Then, the two of them took the elevator upstairs.
In the high-class ward, Lilith Yuen was sitting in front of the hospital bed and feeding Aspry, her husband, with a fruit tray virtuously. She tried her best to behave nicely and occasionally attempted to persuade her husband to give up the idea of letting Dylan and Tina get married.
If Tina was really married into the Koo family, Lilith would be extremely annoyed by it.
She didn't like Tina from the bottom of her heart.
This prejudice was deeply-rooted in Lilith's heart, and could not be changed easily.
However, Aspry's attitude was very determined. As her persuasion lasted, he was more and more vexed.
When the door of the ward was pushed open, Aspry smiled again. "Tina, come in!"
When Lilith saw Tina, the corners of her eyes twitched slightly. She was afraid that her husband might become angry if she behaved impolitely. For this reason, she could only maintain a fake smile on her face.
"Uncle!" Tina also smiled.
In comparison with last time when Tina was here, Aspry looked much better today.
He was now sitting on the head of the bed. His eyes had become bright again, and his cheeks were rubicund.
However, Tina still felt bitter at the thought that Aspry had been diagnosed with an incurable disease.
Aspry saw that Tina and Dylan were standing side by side, and he nodded with satisfaction. "I'm very happy to see the two of you standing in front of me intimately, just like when you were young! Five years of mistakes and hardships have passed. Fortunately, I could finally make up for you!"
Dylan reached out and took Tina's hand.
Tina pursed her lips.
In consideration of Aspry's feelings, she didn't break away from Dylan's grip.
Dylan said, "Dad, don't worry. Tina and I won't let you down this time!"
Aspry's eyes were filled with tears, and he sobbed, "Well... Even if I died now, I could still be able to rest in peace!"
He said this on purpose. He wanted his wife to understand his stance.
As pry didn't want the sad story of five years ago to occur again.
At this, Tina said quickly, "Uncle, don't say that. As long as you cooperate with the medical treatment, there will always be hope!"
However, Tina was not very confident in her words.
She had asked the doctor.
The doctor told her that Aspry would not be able to live for a long time. In other words, these were his last days.
After saying goodbye to Aspry and leaving the ward, Tina broke free from Dylan's hand.
As Aspry had emphasized a number of times that Dylan should drive Tina back home, Tina got into the white Porsche.
Halfway through, Tina said, "You can stop the car at the commercial center ahead. I'll go to the supermarket first!"
Dylan said gently, "Tina, shall I accompany you?"
"No!" Tina shook her head.
Dylan didn't want to give up easily. "You can't carry the things by yourself. Or I'll wait for you here, and then I'll send you back to the hospital!"
When Tina frowned, her expression became impatient. "Dylan, I don't need this!"
Seeing this, Dylan didn't say anything else.
After the Porsche stopped, Tina opened the door of the car. When she walked into the commercial center, she was petrified.
