Chapter 361 What Are You Going to Do?

Having wiped his sweat, Roland suddenly thought of something and explained, "Miss Angela, please

don't get me wrong. You are not among what I called irrelevant people."

Angela replied, "Oh."

"It seems that Angela is special to Dr. Roland," Luna joked.

Roland laughed, "Of course. My auntie regards Miss Angela as the apple of her eye. She urged me

once and again to take good care of her. So surely she's different from others."

"Nowadays, there are seldom young people who would listen to their seniors as Dr. Roland does,"

Luna said. "My parents always remind me to try to get along with what they call the children of their

friends.

"But if I don't hit it off with them, I can't force myself to take care of them or get along with them."

Roland rolled several silver needles and said, "What Mrs. Chante said does make sense. If I couldn't

get on with Miss Angela, I'm afraid I wouldn't treat her as my friend."

He emphasized the word friend.

Luna responded with nothing but a smile.

Meanwhile, Roland was asked to leave for a while for some work. An hour later, the young nurse came

to pull the needles out for Angela.

As she was doing it, the young nurse moaned all the time, "This time Dr. Roland was really irritated by

me. He didn't smile at me as usual when seeing me ... Miss Angela, since you are close to him, could

you please intercede with him for me? I didn't mean to annoy him literally."

"Don't get so nervous. Dr. Roland is not a narrow-minded person. As long as you keep doing what he

tells you to, that will be alright," Angela answered.

The young nurse nodded gloomily, remaining a worried look on her face.

Not knowing when Roland would be back, Angela went to the operation room with Luna instead of

waiting.

The doors were closed. Lorenzo's operation was ongoing.

The two sat outside waiting, as Luna asked, "Angela, what do you think of Dr. Roland?"

"Luna, are you wondering whether I would fall in love with Roland if I hadn't met James?" Angela

questioned.

After a short hesitation, Luna nodded.

"But there is no if at all. The fact is James occurred and I like him. For now, I haven't thought about

having a crush on anyone else." Angela answered bluntly.

Luna sighed and didn't say anything.

"Luna, you started with blaming James for not taking good care of me today, and then you went on to

lavish praise on Roland. Are you trying to get Roland and me together?" Angela had intended to avoid

this question, but there was always something you couldn't avoid no matter how eager you were.

After staring at her for a while, Luna looked away and said, "... I do have that intention."

Angela tucked her lips with her head hanging down and pinched the corner of her coat with her fingers

repeatedly.

She thought Dr. Roland was excellent, yet she didn't expect their relationship that way.

"Angela, the netter chatting with mom claimed that Mr. James asked him to do that ... they are not

murderers exactly, but they contributed much to mom's suicide. What are you going to do?" Luna said.

Angela's brow furrowed with a mess in her mind.

What was she going to do?

She wanted to know it too!

"Your brother knew someone had been persuading mom to give up getting treated, but the moment

that guy admitted this concerned Mr. James, he was not present.

"I dare not tell him about it. Once he knows, he must go to Mr. James and make a mess. Angela, I'm

afraid you would get caught between your brother and Mr. James." Luna said seriously yet sincerely.

Angela licked her lips and clenched her fists, "Every action has its motive. So, what do you think

James's motive was for doing this?"

It's utterly silent in the hospital.

With the extreme silence as well as the endless white walls, Angela felt she could barely breathe as if a

heavy rock lay on her chest.

"I don't know what his motive was, but the netter told me that in person. Do you think that guy needed

to frame Mr. James?" Luna stood up and looked down at her.

Angela was sweating in the palms of her hands, and she rubbed them on her clothes. Without

confronting Luna's gaze, she said, "There were a good many people unwilling to see James and me

together. Maybe it was Lawson, or Jessica ... Anyone of them could do this and pin it to James."

"Angela ...." Luna's look on her face conveyed both resignation and bitterness.

Angela felt her throat constricting, "Luna, it's enough. If you don't have other conclusive evidence, I

would not believe that James had done this."

Luna sighed softly before she sat down again.

"Luna, could you please keep this from my brother?" Angela added hastily before she could answer, "If

there's hard evidence to prove that James had done this, I will not shield him definitely!"

Luna stared at her with a mysterious look. Finally, she let out only a long sigh.

Angela fixed her eyes on the ground, arms by her sides, her hands grasping the corners of her clothes

unawares.

Though she promised Luna solemnly, she had no clue at all whether James had done it or not ... If that

netter was indeed ordered by him ... She shuddered to go on thinking about it.

"Mr. James owed you a lot before, why do you still want to be with him?" Luna asked.

Angela raised her head and whispered, "Because you don't see how much he has given up for me and

how much he has endured for me."

Besides, in the current situation, how could it be easy for her to extricate herself? With family interests,

unspoken rules of business, and all kinds of individuals' desires mixing up, it's impossible for her to do

whatever she wanted to.

Luna hesitated for a while, and then said, "Our mom had lived a hard life, so I want to make her rest in

peace. I can keep it from your brother for some time, but in two weeks at most, I will tell him about this."

"... OK," Angela agreed.

Both didn't speak again, leaving a slightly frightening silence, with the occasional footsteps being

clearly heard. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

"Angela," Luna broke the silence, "both the Harvey family and the Brown family are more than complex.

What's more, since Mr. James treated you so badly, don't you afraid that he would become crueler to

you once he has any other misunderstanding about you?"

Angela opened her mouth, yet couldn't figure out a word.

After all, she was worried about the same thing.

Given her ability, it would take a miracle for her to confront James! That's why she joined the company,

to become as powerful as possible.

Luna's voice weakened, even with a trace of begging, "Angela, could you please not be with James?

OK? Even if you don't want to marry any other man, I, along with your brother, would like to support

you for your entire life!"

"It remains to be seen if James is behind mom's case," Angela replied distractedly, as she wouldn't like

to talk about it at all.

It happened that the doors of the operation room opened. Without a glance at Luna's complex

expression, she stood up and said, "Let me see dad first."
