Cheat With My Boyfriend Best Friend

Chapter 467 Poor Mr. Morris

I rarely heard Maria speak to me like this

In fact, during the time they lived in the Morris household, Maria kept a low profile that she hardly seemed like Mr. Morris's wife or Aaron's stepmother. I even occasionally had a feeling that she was still Mr. Morris's mistress kept outside because her behavior was so understated. Even when she had some emotional fluctuations, she never showed them in front of others, making one can't help but describe her as "obedient"

In short, as Mrs. Morris, her conduct and behavior were not magnanimous enough

But today, even through the telephone receiver,

I could still perceive the subtle changes in her attitude

Behind her calm tone was a composure that belonged to a housewife, perhaps after Mr

Morris was hospitalized, she finally realized what role she should play

I adjusted my hair in front of the mirror inside Cinder's car, looking at the delicate makeup I had just done at the TV station. After thinking for a few seconds, I replied to her, "Okay."

The news of me, as the spokesperson of GHY Group, going for an interview must have reached Mr. Morris. He came to me at this crucial moment, and I couldn't refuse, lest he became angry and spoke unfavorably about Aaron and GHY to the media after not being able to see me

This is not me baselessly defaming him, but rather the fact that he deliberately removed Joe from the business trip list before has left me unable to come to a conclusion. I can only speculate the worst-case scenario and assume that he has already targeted Aaron, who refuses to help him restrain his brother Joe

However, when I arrived at the ward of the cardiology department in the hospital, the state that old Morris presented before my eyes indeed resembled that of an elderly person with a sudden illness

His hair was no longer meticulously combed as usual, with a lot of white hair mixed in, and it was being held up by Maria as she helped him drink water. When he saw me enter, although Mr. Morris immediately straightened his body, he quickly frowned and paused for a moment, then weakly asked his wife beside him toCopyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

support him again

"Olive, have a sit first. Your father is like this, always maintaining a respectable image in front of the children, no matter the situation."

Maria helped Mr. Morris up while smiling and gestured for me to sit on the sofa. Her tone was so gentle that it almost made me feel dazed, as if she was truly Aaron's biological mother, always so warm towards me

However, I didn't say much and simply nodded politely with a smile, and sat down as instructed

Actually, I had my doubts that old Morris was using some trick to test his two sons again with this hospitalization, but now it seems that he was really sick

The so-called tumor, whether benign or malignant, was mostly not a good thing. When I was in college, I had taken some medical-related courses. The appearance and breath of a person after falling ill are usually hard to fake

Therefore, at this moment, my previous guard, which I had before coming here, was also lifted by the attitude of old Morris

Until he sat down with great effort and had Maria close the door behind her, the first thing he said to me was, "Olive, look at how pitiful I am now, struck by illness without any children by my side to take care of me. I don't know where Aaron is, and Joe has to attend to various matters in the company. To be honest, I am very grateful that you came to visit me today after receiving the phone call."

Perhaps his intention was really to use self-deprecating humor to bridge the gap between

us, but such words were really uncomfortable

The slight sympathy I had just ignited for him instantly dissipated

Aaron didn't know where he was. Perhaps he was the one who knew best where Aaron was!

I thought he didn't deserve to recetve comfort from me as Aaron's wife, and couldn't help but retort mockingly, "If you had treated your sons with normal fatherly love from the beginning, you wouldn't have ended up in such a situation now."

However, as soon as the words were spoken, I realized that such wording seemed a bit too straightforward

After all, before this, we had never confronted Morris face-to-face about his actions

So I suddenly became a little worried that he would angrily rebuke me on the spot, which might attract some malicious people from outside the ward and spread rumors about the conflict between Aaron's wife and his father, inevitably causing another big trouble

But what I didn't expect was that, after my mockery, Mr. Morris not only didn't get angry, but instead started looking straight at me

He stared at my eyes thoughtfully until I awkwardly looked away, then he smiled and spoke again
