"Okay. Good night, Nancy."
"Kisses to you, babe. Good night."
"Kisses to you, too"
...
The two girls exchanged an instant smile before they separated.
When Nancy returned to her room, she opened the photo gallery of her cell phone. Her lips curved into a smile when she saw a photo of Stanley in his police uniform. As she stared at him, her eyes watered.
"Would he... be the one?"
Tears fell down her cheek. She would like to model herself on Angela and take the initiative to Stanley, but she dared not to do it.
Of course, he was Stanley! He was different from other men. He was so strict that his poker face always frightened her.
As the night got darker, the two girls fell asleep eventually.
Early next morning
Angela got up early and gave Sven a call. While his wife was still asleep in his arms, he was woken up by the ring of his phone.
"Sven, good morning. Could you please help me find a professional to carve my two pearls?"
Sven replied, "Didn't I already find you two carvers before?"
Angela always liked pearls with patterns, so Sven had introduced two professional carvers to carve the pearls as she wished.
"Yes, but these two pearls are really valuable. So could you please find me a high-class carver?"
Angela tossed her fluffy hair and walked out of her room with her cell phone in her hand. She knocked the door of next room, "Wake up, Nancy! You have an early shift today!"
Hearing her loud voice, Sven gently touched his ear. "What kind of pearls are these?"
"Two pearls from Tahiti!" Angela replied.
Sven was surprised. "Didn't I buy you one? You shouldn't be so fussy about this."
"Because someone gave it to me. That's why it's so special." The corners of Angela's mouth turned up. At the same time, she pushed Nancy's door open. Nancy was waken up by the sound and looked at her sleepily.
"I see flying pigs, Angela. Why are you up so early?" Sven heard what Nancy said on the other end of the phone and imitated her words. He was wondering why Angela was so early this morning, too.
Angela scratched her head, feeling awkward. "Just get up quickly, Nancy. Brush your teeth and wash your face. Let's go to work early!"
Then she told Sven on the cell phone, "So will you find me one or not, Sven?"
"I think I'm not..." Sven didn't mean it. He was joking at her as a punishment for her waking up them in the morning. However, his plan was interrupted by Nicole, who seemed to be awake now and heard their conversation. She grabbed his cell phone and told Angela, "Don't listen to him, Angela. There is a professional in this field in SL Group. I'll give his contact information to you later."
"Kisses to you. You are so good to me, Nicole. I love you so much."
"You're welcome."
Angela was so excited that she almost jumped up.
Making Angela happy like a little girl, Nicole felt the joy for her, too. "Well. I'll get up and get it for you. Just wait."
"Okay. Thank you so much, Nicole. Why did you marry Sven? You're such a beauty and Sven's such a beast!"
"Ha ha!" Nicole couldn't help laughing.
Sven frowned and shouted at Angela, "Don't you dare talk to me like that, Angela! Hello? Angela? Are you still there? You hung up on me! How dare you!"
With their sleep interrupted by Angela, they couldn't go back to sleep now. So, Nicole got up and headed to the closet to select her outfit today.
Whe
n she opened the closet, she saw the orange coat which Angela bought for her. She remembered shopping with Angela that day.
The coat was bought when she was shopping with Angela and Emily. While Angela picked up coats for her, Emily secretly asked Nicole, "Chuck and Sven pamper Angela so much. Why are you so good to her too, Nicole? Don't you feel a little jealous and uncomfortable when your husband pampers her?"
Nicole replied with a smile, "I won't be jealous. Because I'm loved by my parents, father-in-law, mother-in-law, and my husband. Sven loves me so much. I'm pampered by them, too. Of course, I don't mind sharing the love with Angela. She is younger than me and she's so lovely!"
Yes, she never felt happier! Because her beloved ones were super nice to her, especially her husband. He was a few years younger than her, but he was always good to her. Sometimes, her husband pampered her more than Angela.
She was very content and did not mind sharing the love to Angela, who was kind to her, too.
People's kindness were mutual. There was no drama between her and Angela.
"What's in your mind, dear?" Sven yawned and gazed at Nicole who was staring at space in front of the wardrobe.
Nicole pulled back her thoughts and smiled. "I don't understand why a strict man like Chuck could have such a lovely daughter."
"She is lovely? She's a little evil, okay?"
Nicole gave him a frown and took the orange coat out. She defended, "Well, I know you didn't mean it."
"Fine. No more talking about her. Now, wash yourself and then let's see our son." Sven caught a hold of her waist and kissed her gently on the lips.
As for Angela, although she got up early, when she parked her car in the parking lot, there was no much time left before signing in at work.
Angela rushed out of her car as soon as she pulled over. She quickly grabbed Nancy's hand and rushed towards VVIP of the inpatient department.
Angela was hurrying all the way so Nancy kept reminding her, "Slow down, Angela! Act like a lady. Don't run into someone!"
"Never mind. There's only 5 minutes left. Come on!" Angela kept running.
A silver-gray Pagani stopped in front of the outpatient building. A man and a woman got off the car.
Two lines of doctors and nurses stood at the entrance of the building and greeted the people who just arrived. "Good morning, Dr. Gu and welcome Director Zhen!"
Arvin handed his car keys to his assistant, Adam, while Nita smiled politely at everyone.
When Adam was about to receive the key from Arvin, a force hit him and he fell onto the ground. This person couldn't slow down and also ran into Arvin.
"Ouch!" Nancy, who was following Angela almost crashed into Angela as well. If Angela hadn't grabbed Arvin's sleeves, she and Nancy could have fallen to the ground.
Everyone looked at the luxurious car key on the ground. There was a sense of embarrassment in the air.
Angela felt ashamed too. Earlier, she saw the distance between Arvin and Adam. She definitely miscalculated it. She thought she could run past Arvin but she didn't expect that Arvin would pass on the car key to Adam.
Arvin stared coldly at Angela, who was rubbing her nose due to the crash onto his back.
He snarled at her, "What are you doing? Angela!"
Everyone turned their eyes to Angela. Thanks to Arvin's words.
Oh... Angela's cheeks turned red. She felt so awkward.
