Trapped with a Doctor

Chapter 191 Ouch! My Waist

'Crap! I knew something was up.' Angela thought for a minute and put on a pair of puppy dog eyes. "Do

you really have the heart to question me after all that I've been through tonight?" she pouted. She shed

a tear or two as she talked about the incident.

'He should let it go after seeing me like this, ' she thought.

"All right, this time I will let it pass. But I still have to ask, am I ever going to see you spend time alone

with him again?" This was what he was really concerned about. Arvin asked as he ran his hands over

Angela's body. She seemed to have gained some weight. Her skin felt soft.

Angela hurriedly raised her right hand and vowed, "No, you won't. I promise!"

"Good. And another thing... I see that you and Baron have gotten close recently. About the message he

sent you this afternoon…" Just as Angela had been worried about, Arvin raised another thing she'd

done that he thought inappropriate.

'Oh, that thing! God, this man really keeps track.'

Angela knew she shouldn't do things that would upset Arvin. Or, more precisely, she shouldn't do things

that would make him jealous.

Because once he got jealous, it would mean big trouble for her.

Case in point, Arvin was fuming right in front of her!

'What should I do?' Angela searched her mind for a way out. Finally, she blurted out under Arvin's

glare, "It seems like you have been misbehaving as well. You asked Nita out to dinner. What's worse,

you even took her home to meet your parents. Me? I've only dated one guy - Randal. We didn't even

do any of those romantic things you guys did, not to mention meeting the parents."

Arvin was stumped by the unexpected accusation. He froze for a minute and said, " Do you mean that I

am the one to blame?"

Angela nodded wildly and said, "Yes, you are. You have so many women around you. You are like an

emperor who has a houseful of women to choose from. And I said nothing about that! But now, you

have the nerve to bring up the fact that I texted another guy?"

Arvin rolled his eyes. He didn't shy away from the topic and said, "Okay, speaking of admirers, when I

first went to your place, I saw someone had a guy who was holding a bouquet of 999 blue

enchantresses and asking her to be his girlfriend."

Angela was shocked. How did Arvin know about that!

It's true that when she got home that night, there was a guy who went to confess to her. It was the son

of some doctor friend of her father's. The boy bought her a bouquet of 999 blue enchantresses and

tried to give it to her in front of her whole family. It was quite a scene.

However, back then, Angela was in a bad mood because she had a fight with Arvin, so she turned him

down bluntly and didn't even pick up the flowers before going straight to her room.

What Angela couldn't understand right now was why would Arvin bring it up when she was not even

responsible for it.

He was picking on her! Angela decided not to let him get away with it. If she did, he would have the

power to do it again. Therefore, she refuted, "If you must mention that, let me count all the women who

ran after you. There were like three thousand of them!"

With a worried face, Arvin squeezed Angela's arms and shook her. "Wake up, Angela. The era of

emperors is long gone!"

They were living in modern times, yet she still likened him to an emperor who had a houseful of women

to choose from. How hilarious!

At first, Angela didn't realize that Arvin was making a joke out of her description of his admirers.

After a while, she got what he meant and then burst into laughter. Apparently, there were more sides to

Arvin that she hadn't seen before. She was amazed to see that he, a man as serious as any man could

ever be, could be so humorous! Feeling intrigued, she decided to tease him some more. "I heard that

there are hundreds, if not thousands, of women who secretly admire you at Yao Hospital."

"I don't care if they admire me or not." The only person Arvin really cared about was the woman in his

arms right now - Angela!

Expecting to hear more, Angela put her arms around Arvin's neck and asked, "Then who do you really

care about, Mr. Gu?"

"Who do you think I care about?"

"I have no idea. I can't read minds, you know." Deep down, Angela knew that Arvin cared about her.

But she was too shy to say it out loud. On the broad shoulders of Arvin, she drew circles with her

fingers to avoid eye contact.

Seeing that Angela wouldn't confess her love for him, Arvin decided to play along using the same

tactic. He said, "Oh, you don't know? Well, maybe there really isn't anyone I care about."

Angela's heart sank at his words. She looked up at Arvin, eyes filled with distress and grief. "If it's true,

then why are you holding me like this? Let go of me!" She tried to break loose from his arms.

Arvin was amused that she was taking his joke so seriously. He couldn't help but smile.

With both his arms clasped around Angela, he pulled her near and covered her mouth with his. Angela

fought back and tried to break the kiss. But she couldn't. Arvin was too strong.

When she finally caught her breath after the long kiss, she demanded, "Why kiss me if you don't even

care about me? Do you do this to all women who fell for you?"

Angela felt depressed. 'Are all men like this? Pretending to love you but not willing to commit after

winning you over?' she wondered bitterly.

Her face glowed under the steam of the hot spring, making her look irresistible to Arvin. Eyes filled with

affection, Arvin grazed his lips over her cheek and took a gentle bite. "Stop it, Arvin!" Angela let out a

cry of protest.

Ignoring that, Arvin leaned over to her ear and whispered, "Do you really believe that I don't care about

you?"

Angela then realized that Arvin was just pulling her leg. With a triumphant smile, she replied, "Of

course not. I didn't buy it for a second. But I'm warning you. Don't you ever joke about our relationship

again. From now on, the only person you should care about is me, at least at the hospital!"

"Of course I care about you, Angela. I love you and I always will!" The rest of the world seemed to have

faded away, as they gazed into each other's eyes. Without another word, Arvin took Angela's lips and

started to peel off her swimsuit.

Hands sliding up Arvin's back, Angela rested her chin on his broad shoulder as he went inside her. Her

eyes wandered off toward the night scene of J City. Not a sound could be heard except for splashes of

water and a few muffled moans now and then.

The wind turned cold as the night deepened. Arvin looked down at Angela who was comfortably dozing

off in his arms. Grabbing a towel to cover them both, he stood up and carried her to the landscape

deluxe suite the housekeeper had reserved for them.

After they had entered the room, Arvin put Angela down on a lounge chair before going to the

bathroom to fetch her a hairdryer.

Half asleep, Angela thought she was on a bed, so she stretched her arms, turned…

And fell.

"Ouch! My waist! It hurts! Ow!" Angela was fully awake now.

Hearing the noise, Arvin hurriedly walked out of the bathroom to check on Angela, who was sitting on

the floor with her hand on her waist.

"What happened?" Arvin asked as he carried Angela back to the chair, eyes filled with concern.

"I thought I was on the bed, so I turned…" Angela shot Arvin a pitiful look.

Arvin was amused. Just in case she fell again, he picked her up from the chair and placed her on the

bed. "Stay here. I will get you a towel and a hairdryer. You have to dry your hair before going to sleep."

Arvin patted her head and left.

When he came back, he bent down to wrap Angela's hair with the towel he had brought and then

positioned her face-down flat on the bed. "Where does it hurt?" he asked.

Angela pointed her wrist on her back. Placing his hands there, Arvin gave her a massage.

Even though it wasn't his expertise, he knew some professional techniques. Soon, Angela was relieved Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

from the pain and fell asleep.

It was already past midnight when Arvin tucked Angela in and put away the hairdryer and towel.

Just as he was about to join her in bed, his phone rang. It was Kent.

He knew Kent would never call him at this hour unless it was very important, So he muted his phone

and walked to the balcony. "Yes?"

"Mr. Gu, I found out something about the incident. It was an intern at the Research and Development

Department who put the snake in the locker room. She was bought over to do that by Susan."

"Susan?"

She was Nita's assistant, he remembered.

"Yes. But her phone couldn't be reached right now. I've sent more people to look for her."

'Why would Susan want to hurt Angela?' Arvin furrowed his brow in confusion for a few minutes and

then asked, "What has Nita been doing lately?"

"After she left Yao Hospital, quite a few hospitals offered her high positions with decent pay, but she

turned them all down. Now, she mostly stays at home, barely leaving the house, " Kent answered.

"Does Susan still show up for work?"
