Chapter 57 The Feud Is A Dead End
"It's not good. But my friend's brother came to H City for an academic exchange meeting. He is an
authority in this field. We can contact some foreign experts. I want to ask them to make a detailed
consultation for my father in a few days and see how to treat him."
It never occurred to Celia that she had told Hans too much on the phone, which had caused him to
destroy her plan to treat her father. And it resulted in an unsolvable feud between her and him.
Countless grudges, one after another, could not be solved. In the end, she wished she could die to get
rid of them.
"Well, that's good. If you need any help, you can tell me."
The person on the other end of the phone pondered for a moment and then said gently. For this, Celia
was only a little stunned, but she didn't think it was strange, because she had been used to the
fickleness of Hans. However, when he talked to her in a gentle tone, she couldn't speak ill of him.
"Celia, who called you just now? Is it Ryan?"
Seeing that Celia hung up the phone, Alina looked at her curiously, shaking her arms. Celia frowned
slightly. She took a look at Jim, who was driving the car, and found that he was just staring ahead, as if
he didn't care about their conversation. Then she shook her head and replied, "No, it's a friend."
Alina didn't believe her and wanted to ask more, but Celia had changed the topic. She had a stronger
idea to introduce Alina to Ryan, thinking about a convenient time.
Since that night, she didn't see Ryan and didn't even call him once. But her brother told her that Ryan
was sent to a branch company in another city by his father.
As soon as Jim sent them to the shopping mall, he received a call for temporarily matter. Celia didn't
care about it and said that she would take a taxi back later.
To her surprise, she ran into Tom when she was shopping with Alina. She had only seen him twice.
One was when she signed the contract with Hans, and the other was at the banquet half a month ago.
Although they had only met twice in a hurry, Celia could recognize him at a glance.
"Miss Celia, why are you here?"
"Mr. Tom, are you shopping here too?"
It was Tom who greeted her first. He looked very gentle and elegant with a smile on his face. When he
saw Alina who was with her, a touch of doubt flashed through his eyes. He asked politely, "Is this Miss
Celia's friend?"
When Celia was thinking about how to introduce Alina, Alina had reached out her hand to Tom and
introduced herself directly, "My name is Alina Liang. I'm Celia's classmate and friend. Nice to meet you,
Mr. Tom."
Alina was beautiful, cheerful and elegant. Different from the refined and indifferent Celia, at a glance,
Tom was in a trance for a moment, and his heart seemed to palpitate inexplicably.
Was this so-called love at first sight?
"Hello, Miss Alina. My name is Tom. You have bought a lot of things. Come on, let me help you carry
them. "
As a man, he should have gentlemanly manner. Moreover, Tom had fallen in love with Celia's friend at
the first sight, so he had to restrain his hostility and disgust towards Celia. Surely Tom is a freak. Celia
was the enemy of Hans. It was unreasonable for Tom to hate her.
Celia was about to refuse, but she didn't speak it out when she saw the gentle smile on Tom's face and
the hand he reached out to Alina. She only criticized him in her heart. Besides, it seemed that Alina
didn't want to be polite to him. She gave him the two bags in her hands.
"Where are you going? I'll drive you there."
Walking out of the mall, Tom said gentlemanly with a mild smile on his face. Alina told him the address
of the hotel. Tom was a little surprised, but then he understood and asked, "Miss Alina, aren't you a
local?"
"No, I'm from A City. I come here with my brother for a business trip and meet Celia by the way."
Alina, who was outgoing, said frankly. Hearing this, Tom continued, "Really? H City is a tourist city.
Since you're here, you must go to those scenic spots."
"Well, I have lived in H City for four years, and I have visited all the scenic spots here. If Mr. Tom know
any other interesting places, I would like to have a try!"
As a gentleman, Tom opened the car door for the two beautiful women. Along the way, he kept chatting
with Alina. Celia was indifferent by nature and didn't like to talk. She just listened to them quietly and
occasionally joined the conversation. Most of the time, she was just an audience.
With his silver tongue, Tom and Alina was closer to each other. When they arrived at the hotel, he was
more familiar with Alina than with Celia.
Alina had asked Celia to go into the hotel with her, but unexpectedly, Celia received a call from Emily,
saying that her father had entered the resuscitation room.
"Celia, come to the hospital as soon as possible. Your father fainted again and entered the
resuscitation room!"
"Alina, I have something urgent to deal with. You go back to the hotel and have a rest. I'll call you later."
After hanging up the phone, Celia said goodbye to Alina and left.
"Miss Celia, let me take you to the hospital."
As soon as she took a few steps forward, Tom caught up with her.
"Okay!"
Worried about her father, Celia agreed to Tom's suggestion and had a ride in his car to the hospital.
On the way, Celia remained silent, and Tom didn't say anything either. He just focused on driving, and
from time to time, he could see the frown between her eyebrows from the rearview mirror.
Twenty minutes later, Tom's car stopped at the gate of the hospital. Celia simply thanked him and
opened the door to get out. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Celia!"
Coincidentally, Joe just arrived at the hospital. As soon as Tom's car was parked at the roadside, he
waited for Celia at the gate of the hospital.
"Brother, let's go inside. I don't know how Dad is now."
"Okay. I hope he is alright."
With a worried look on his face, Joe walked into the hospital side by side with Celia.
Sitting in the car, Tom watched the two of them disappear at the gate of the hospital. A hint of cruelty
flashed through his eyes, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"Mom, why did dad faint?"
The two of them rushed to the emergency room. Only Emily was sitting on the bench in the corridor.
Seeing her heavy makeup, Joe immediately frowned. He could not tell whether he was angry or painful.
Glancing at Celia who came with Joe, Emily said sharply and bitterly, "It's all because of her."
Celia was shocked. She frowned and had doubts in her eyes. She didn't understand what Emily meant.
It was none of her business that her father fainted. Her father was fine when she left last time.
"Mom, what does it have to do with Celia?"
With a straight face, Joe defended for Celia instinctively.
However, as soon as he finished his words, Emily snorted with contempt and said coldly, "It's none of
her business? Your father knows what happened to Nancy now, and Celia spoke ill of me in front of
your father..."
"Mom, don't go too far."
Before Emily could finish her words, she was interrupted by Joe suddenly. His face was dark and blue
veins stood out on his forehead. Joe looked at the other end of the corridor with resentment.
Looking in the direction of his sight, Emily found it was her lover, Johnson Zhao, the big belly man who
was said to be useless by Joe.
Emily's face turned pale and a hint of panic flashed through her eyes. She instinctively winked at the
man. She had just asked him to leave, but why did he come back?
Anyway, she didn't want her son to know that the reason why Ned was in the emergency room was that
he was stimulated by her and Johnson Zhao together.
"Emily, I've thought about it. There's nothing we should hide from your children. I'll be here with you."
Johnson glanced at Joe and Celia indifferently. Of course he knew them.
Being ashamed into anger, Joe pursed his lips and swung his fist at Johnson Zhao.
However, the man was alert and dodged with his head tilted.
"What are you doing here? Get out!"
Seeing that, Celia frowned and reached out her hand to pull Joe away. Meanwhile, Emily stood in front
of Johnson angrily to block her son's second punch.
"Mom, you'd better take this man away. Even if you really want to find the happiness for the rest of your
life, you shouldn't come to the hospital to piss dad off on purpose."
Celia said in a cool voice, with a cold light in her eyes. She was sensitive enough to see through the
reason why her father was in a coma. He was probably stimulated by these two people.
Celia had got the answer from the panic in Emily's eyes.
However, she thought that the reaction of Johnson was somewhat strange.
"You bad girl, what qualification do you have to scold me?" Although Emily was a little timid when
facing Joe. She was still bitterly sarcastic when talking to Celia.
Johnson Zhao looked on coldly. He glanced at Celia, who was grabbing the arm of Joe, and said
seriously, "Well, Emily, if both your son and daughter object to our relationship, we won't contact again.
I'm leaving. Take care of yourself."
After saying that, he turned around and left without a trace of nostalgia and reluctance.
"Johnson, don't go!"
Emily's face turned pale and she hurried to chase after him.
Joe was angry and wanted to say something. At the same time, the door of the emergency room
opened. Seeing the doctor come out, he rushed up to the doctor with Celia, regardless of the leaving
Emily.
"Doctor, how is my father?"
The two asked at the same time, their eyes were full of worry.
The doctor looked tired. He shook his head and said, "We've tried our best."
Hearing this, both of Joe and Celia stiffened. The next moment, a strong sadness overwhelmed them.
Celia's tears rolled down. Although Joe didn't cry, his face was as pale as paper.
Emily, who had just taken a few steps, obviously heard the doctor's words. She stopped in hesitation,
and watched Johnson Zhao strode away. She couldn't move her feet for a moment.
