Trapped with a Doctor

Chapter 190 Appetizers

How could he let off the vicious person who dared to put such a dangerous thing to harm his

sweetheart in his own hospital?

After the phone call, Arvin went out of the R and D department, holding Angela.

A few colleagues who were working overtime saw them. Greeting Arvin rather politely, they were

surprised at his intimacy with Angela.

Not having recovered from her fear, Angela was at Arvin's disposal and followed him out of the

building.

They got into Arvin's car. When Angela's senses finally came back to her, Arvin asked, "What

happened?"

Angela told him all that she had seen.

She recalled that the whole thing happened when he phoned her. She was just about to take out her

white coat, only to find a snake hanging inside. Startled at the sudden light and Angela's movements,

the snake popped out its head. She stepped back upon instinct, lucky enough to have avoided the

attack.

Having heard her narration, Arvin fell silent. Letting Angela lean on his shoulder, he stroked her hair to

comfort her.

Back at the Oujing Apartment, Angela found Aunt Shelley busy in the kitchen.

Seeing them come back, Shelley greeted, "Mr. Gu, Miss Si, dinner is ready, but the soup may still need

a moment. Would you like to have the other dishes first?"

Arvin nodded casually and led the frightened Angela to the bathroom.

"Angela, it's okay now. You are safe here. Don't be afraid anymore." Heart aching, he embraced her

and kept kissing her long hair gently.

Angela nodded, "Big Wing, I don't like your ties with patterns."

They just looked like... snake skin.

She wanted to tell him that long before. However, she could try to ignore it if Arvin liked them.

Nevertheless, having experienced this horrible thing tonight, she could no longer bear those ties.

Arvin nodded, "Okay, I won't wear them if you dislike them."

He would say yes to anything she asked for within his ability, let alone such small things.

When they got out of the bathroom, the dishes were neatly laid on the table.

Even with all the delicious food, Angela had no... appetite.

She ate some porridge with a soup spoon but tasted nothing. It seemed that all her taste buds had

failed to work.

Stirring the porridge with boredom, she didn't even touch the chopsticks at all. Arvin noticed all this and

told Aunt Shelley to make some appetizers.

Hmm? "Isn't the food enough for you?" Angela asked in a daze.

Arvin cast a look at the dishes, saying, "Enough for me, but since you dislike the food, I'll have Aunt

Shelley make some appetizers."

"Don't bother. This is enough for me." Alas! Angela put a piece of tender tofu into her mouth.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

It was hot and delicious!

She tried hard not to think about anything that happened that night and focused on the food.

However, still haunted by the thought of it, she only ate a third of the porridge, not willing to have any

more.

Having finished his meal, Arvin wiped his mouth and hands with a napkin and took Angela away from

the table.

Seated with Angela on the sofa, he said, "It doesn't matter if you don't want any more of these, but

have some soup. I had Aunt Shelley make it for you."

Angela nodded and asked, "Big Wing, do you know... why that thing was there?"

This was something she couldn't figure out. How could such a creature appear on the 10th floor of the

R and D department?

Arvin played with her fingers, saying, "I have had Kent look into that. I will let you know as soon as I

find out."

"Hmm." She leaned on his shoulder, grabbing his arm tight.

The soup was ready. Arvin spoonfed her a bowl of it.

He wouldn't hand the bowl to Aunt Shelley until it was all finished, and he wouldn't let her go until she

complained that her stomach was full.

He then told Aunt Shelly a few things and took Angela out of the apartment.

"Where are we going?" Seated on the passenger seat, she watched him fasten the seatbelt for her.

Showing a faint smile, he said, "You'll know when we arrive." He then kissed her on the forehead,

started the engine, and drove out of the estate.

Forty minutes later, Angela opened her sleepy eyes and looked at the darkness outside, bewildered.

She realized that they had arrived at a mountaintop the moment they got off.

Looked down from here, the whole J City was in their view. How beautiful it was at night!

Seeing her mood improve, Arvin led her to the other side. After a five-minute walk under the street

lamps, they saw a nameplate that read "Glassy Lake Hot Spring".

So, were they here for the hot spring?

When they arrived at the reception room, there were already two private housekeepers waiting. "Good

evening, Mr Gu and Miss Si. Welcome to Glassy Lake Hot Spring!"

Angela smiled at them, while Arvin simply nodded.

"Mr Gu, the check-in procedure is done. Now please follow me."

The housekeepers took them to the elevator and pressed the "-5F" button.

The elevator went down, leading them to a hillside.

The bamboo hot spring was located deep into the seemingly boundless bamboo grove. They could

enjoy the bath, the bamboo trees, and the city landscape all at the same time!

It was late at night.

With Angela within Arvin's embrace, they watched the scenery from afar and were filled with joy.

However, Angela realized something and stared at the grove, frightened. "Do you think there's a... a..."

She was too afraid to utter the word.

Arvin hugged her tighter, "No, there won't. It's safe here."

Oh. Okay. She trusted him.

A moment later.

"Won't we go back tonight?" Angela looked up at his handsome face.

"No. We will go back tomorrow." Feeling her gaze, Arvin gave her a swift kiss on the lips.

"Oh. Why the hot spring?" She was not prepared for this. Luckily, the housekeepers had prepared

swimwear for her.

Turning his arms, Arvin had Angela sit on his lap, facing him.

"Lay me down, you bad boy."

"I want to know whether you're fine now." If she was, then it was the right time for them to have things

settled.

Not knowing the danger looming, she said naively, "Yes, I am totally fine now." Her mind could be at

peace as long as she was with him.

"But... I'm not." Grabbing her waist, Arvin moved his hands along her body.

"What's the matter?" She became nervous.

"What's the matter? Angela, you had Fabian take you to his home, remember? Now, it's time for us to

address that issue..."
