Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 1705
Desmond's expression was a bit funny. "Such a coincident, how did their bone marrow match? It can't be like the romantic drama in the TV that Isla is actually my cousin's lost daughter, right?"
He almost thought he was the screenwriter.
Tina gave her tacit approval.
"I actually guessed right?" Adam was stupefied.
He just went abroad for a business trip for half a month. When he came back, the whole world was like having been turned up side down!
Desmond swallowed his saliva. "Tina, what's wrong with you? You sneakily had an affair with my cousin so many years ago?"
Tina felt a little awkward. "Ahem..."
She paused and briefly told him the whole story. Five years ago, they happened to spend a night together. Wilson performed parent bone marrow transplant operation for Isla and fought for the custody right with her.
After Desmond finished listening, he was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.
After a long while, he sighed with a particularly sorrowful tone. "It's all over! So, I have a blood relationship with your little girl and I am her uncle. Now it is impossible for her to call me brother!" Tina's mouth twitched.
The brain circuit of this playboy was always so strange.
In the end, Desmond still accepted this fact and once again regained his vitality.
He swung the curly hair on his forehead and snorted angrily, "Tina, my second cousin definitely didn't fight with you for the custody right out of good will. I think maybe it's because of Abby Amery..."
Tina remained silent.
She lowered her eyes and her heart curled into a ball.
The next day, it was still a work day.
Tina had taken a long leave previously, and most of her work was done with the help of her colleagues. The remaining parts had been piled up, and it was not a small workload.
She decided not to go to the hospital to see Isla this night. The next day was the weekend, and she had a lot of time to accompany her during the day, so she wanted to stay in the office to work overtime and finish all the work she owed.
The sky, which was supposed to be sunny, began to darken since evening.
The sunset was completely blocked by the dark clouds. It later drizzled.
The lights in the office were on, and Tina was working on a news draft in front of the computer.
The other people in the department were getting off work one after another, with only the sound of her taps on the keyboard. Therefore, the ringing of the cell phone was very clear.
The call was from Malee.
Malee told her, "Tina, you rest tomorrow. I have something need your help with!"
Tina asked, "Malee, what's the matter?"
Malee said, "It's that Old Madam Chiang lost an important painting and she's in a bad mood. The painting isn't expensive, but it was a present from Old Master before he passed away. It's an oil painting of a sunrise by the riverside. As you know, in the Chiang family, Old Madam is the only one who treats me well, so I want to draw a new painting for her! As a memorial!"
Tina answered with understanding.
Malee continued, "I checked the weather forecast and the rain will stop in the middle of the night. The sunrise tomorrow morning will be a perfect scene to draw. But I'm afraid that I can't do it alone, so I want to ask you for help!"
Tina said without hesitation, "No problem. I'll go with you!"
They were best friends. When they needed each other, they would do their best to help.
Malee felt warmth in her heart. "Thank you, Tina. I'll wait for you at your place tomorrow morning!"
"Sure!" Tina smiled.
After hanging up, she continued to work.
The phone rang again.
Tina thought that Malee was calling again, so she picked it up without even looking at the screen.
A deep voice came through the speaker. "Tina, why didn't you come to the hospital tonight to see our daughter?"
Tina paused for a moment before replying, "I'm working overtime!"
In the evening, she called the hospital and asked the nurse to inform Isla that she was busy with work this night and she would go to see Isla the next day. Wilson went to see his daughter every day. He should have known.
"Just now the doctor came to say that I will be discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow!" Wilson's tone showed languidness and a trace of deliberate resentment. Tina pretended that she didn't sense that. She smiled and said, "Really? Congratulations, President Chin. It must be very boring to live in the hospital these days!"
In fact, she had already inquired from the doctor and knew when he would be discharged from the hospital.
But at this time, her tone was calm and very polite, like a stranger who didn't care.
Wilson said in a deep voice, "Tina, you are heartless!"
Tina's finger bent slightly.
Although he sounded like rebuking, he did not really get angry. From the speaker, it sounded a little ambiguous, more like the sentimental whispers between lovers. Wilson said at last, "I still want to have the porridge cooked by you tomorrow!"
"Mmhm. I will cook for you!" Tina replied.
She promised him, but she would still let the nurse help to deliver it.
Tina had been engrossed in her work since the end of the call.
After the last interview material was sorted out, she shut down the computer. It was raining and it was getting darker outside.
Tina turned off the light, and walked out of the office.
Coming out of the office building, the rain was intertwined in the neon lights, and everything got a little blurred.
Tina frowned.
The rain suddenly fell at sunset, and she didn't bring an umbrella.
She looked up at the falling rain. Although it wasn't pouring, it was still very heavy.
At this time, no colleagues could lend umbrellas to her. She raised her bag above her heard and wanted to rush to the roadside to stop a taxi, but she didn't expect that she couldn't get an available taxi for a long time.
Just as she was about to be soaked, a black luxurious car stopped in front of her.
The door opened and Terry came over with an umbrella.
Tina was surprised. "Mr. Terry?"
Terry said, "Miss Hall, it's raining so heavily. I'll drive you home!"
Tina said gratefully, "Okay, thank you!"
She was really lucky to meet Terry on such a rainy day.
After sitting down, Terry handed her a dry towel.
Tina thanked him.
The car drove in the rain, and the windscreen wiper stirred up waves of water.
Due to the rain, the car wasn't fast. For fear of making her bored, Terry took the initiative to talk to her. "Miss Hall, why are you still working at this time?"
Tina explained, "Yes, overtime. I've taken days off for Isla's surgery and piled up a lot of work!"
"Miss Hall, I thought that after the Grand Fashion Design Contest, you would directly transform to a clothing designer. After all, your design is so good and you were the champion!" Terry said in a praising tone. Tina smiled shyly.
Terry blurted out, "Speaking of the contest, I suddenly remembered that after the finals, President Chin specially asked me to transfer two million into your account..."
