Chapter 866 Conceal
"Tell me, what exactly are you hiding from me?"
What John said is filled with malicious malice. His aggressive tone frightens the director to the point of trembling. She does not expect this man to have such a powerful aura.
So she covers her mouth and cries, "Actually, I did it all for Rory."
John's cold eyes instantly softens when he hears Rory's name, but his expression is still a little gloomy.
"What do you mean?" John says again, his tone much calmer than before. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Seeing his reaction, the director's eyes turn red as she says, "Because that woman seems to have been pestering you all the time. She has used various methods. I am afraid that you will be seduced away by that woman. If so, what should Rory do without you?"
What the director said is true, so she reveals her true feelings in front of John. Seeing her be so sad, he stops questioning her. However, he had no choice but to ponder deeply. If things are really that simple, then she does not need to make such a big move. But he feels that the director is going to hide something.
What secret has she kept, and should he save that woman?
Seeing that her method works, the director adds, "I have no other choice. Actually, I just want you to be more determined. I don't want you to see that woman because I don't want my daughter to miss out on happiness."
The director says this from the bottom of her heart.
"That woman has warned me time and time again. She even ran into my office and caused a big fuss. I was quick-witted enough to escape in time." What the director has said is half-truths, because this is
the only way to confuse John.
Hearing this, John probably won't know what he wants to do anymore.
John frowns bitterly again. Why does the director do everything possible to stop him from saving that woman?
Seeing his furrowed brows, the director behaves like a great philanthropist. "Actually, I realize that I am wrong. I shouldn't have done such an impulsive thing for my own selfish desires. Fortunately, no one is injured in the fire. Otherwise, I would be extremely ashamed. And now, I understand. Go save that woman."
Is it because of her conscience that this woman is encouraging him to save that person?
John looks at her in astonishment. It is said that woman is fickle. As expected, he can't even figure out what this woman in front of him wants to do anymore. But he doesn't want to think about it.
"Don't look at me with such a strange gaze. I just couldn't accept the fact, but now that I've figured it out, I feel relieved. I'm fine. You don't have to care too much about it. Anyway, I'm fine here. It's just that you go to save someone. It's not a big deal." Finishing speaking, the director reveals a look of repentance, and then makes a gesture of prayer.
John falls into deep thought. He doesn't even pay attention to the director. Because all that appears in his mind is Miya. He doesn't know how she is now.
Damn it. He suddenly realizes that he seems to be concerned about that woman.
This must be his illusion. He doesn't like the feeling of being dominated by others, so he tries to calm down. The image of that woman appears in his mind now, and he hurriedly goes into the bathroom.
The director is very surprised. Why does John suddenly run away halfway through her words? Can it be that he really has found something? But, she acted so well just now. Logically speaking, he shouldn't be suspicious of her.
Actually, John cannot restrain the desire in his heart. He has to admit that he wants to see Miya. However, he doesn't know why he couldn't help but talk wildly when he sees that man and Miya. He is in an inexplicable anger, as if it has been suppressed for a long time. He wants to vent his anger, but he can't find a way. Therefore, he treats them as an outlet. Recently, his mood has always been uncertain.
It seems that he has never lived a peaceful life since that woman appeared.
He can't understand why that woman can affect his emotions. Maybe because that woman keeps pestering him. Bur the person he likes is Rory. Things will soon be over. He immediately turns on the cold water and douses his head to wake himself up.
The next day, Anson is walking around the room with anxiety, but he hears someone report that the orphanage was on fire yesterday.
"Did the orphanage catch fire last night?" He didn't set the fire. What exactly is going on? Anson becomes anxious because he regrets saying those harsh words yesterday. However, he is now too embarrassed to look for John. He knows that it will be useless in the end. John is as stubborn as a mule. They are quite similar on this point.
Miya, who is lying on the bed, is like a doll without a soul. She quietly closes her eyes as if she has fallen asleep. Anson is really afraid that Miya will not be able to wake up and become a vegetable.
"Miya, can you hear me? Don't you promise to give me a chance? How can you go back on your word now? If you die, what's the point of me living in the world?" Anson keeps talking in her ear, his hands
tightly holding her palms, and then he puts her hands on his lips.
"Why can't you hear what I'm saying? You only care about Alex. Is that really so?"
When Anson says this, his heart aches. He even has no way to accept this.
However, he doesn't expect that when he says Alex's name, he sees Miya's eyelids twitch. In other words, she has signs of survival.
"Doctor!" He shouts excitedly. The doctor comes in. In fact, the doctor has been standing guard outside the door, waiting for orders at any time. If something happens to this girl, the doctor will suffer as well.
