In Angela’s hospital ward, Kevin and Bruce came to visit as agreed. They brought gifts that filled the room, each one valuable.
Angela was delighted to see them. “Old Mr. Lawson, Grandpa, I’m really happy to see you two here, but why did you bring so many gifts?”
She quickly ushered the two old men to sit on the couch before pouring two cups of water and placing them on the coffee table. “Didn’t I say that I was fine on the phone? It’s nothing
serious.”
Bruce gestured to Angela. “Come here. Let us take a good look at you.”
Angela walked over to the two old men and obediently allowed them to examine her. carefully.
After a thorough examination, the two elders nodded in satisfaction. Kevin added, “Hmm, your mental state is fine. Has your injury healed? Should I invite some foreign doctors to check on you?”
Considering her future career as a doctor, he was concerned about the shoulder injury affecting the arm and potential issues that could affect her judgment as a doctor.
In response, Angela shook her head and reassured them, “It’s fine, Grandpa. I’m a doctor myself. I know how my body is healing.”
Bruce also insisted, “Angela, if you really need a doctor, look for me. The doctors. recommended by the Sanders Family…”
He glanced at Kevin with a hint of dissatisfaction on his face and continued “…are not trustworthy.”
Infuriated, Kevin’s face reddened. “How could you say that, old man?!”
“I’m just stating facts.”
“What…”
Sensing the tension between them, Angela quickly interjected, “Old Mr. Lawson, Grandpa, I’m really fine. Jonathan will take care of it for me if anything happens.”
At the mention of Jonathan Lawson, the two old men showed pleased smiles.

Both of them agreed that Jonathan was a capable kid and always handled things thoroughly. Angela was his wife, so her condition should be his concern.
Just as they were chatting happily, Fanny showed up. When she saw who was in the ward, she froze.
Why are those two here?
Fanny’s sudden appearance drew everyone’s attention to her.
With a bashful smile, Fanny uttered, “Angela, I came to see you.” Then, she greeted the two elders, “Hello, Old Mr. Lawson and Old Mr. Sanders. Are you here to see Angela, too?”
What a pointless question.
Bruce’s expression darkened as he did not feel the need to attend to her.
It was a rare opportunity for him to chat with his granddaughter–in–law when she was feeling. better, but he didn’t expect to encounter such a buzzkill.
On the other hand, Kevin nodded in acknowledgment. After all, she was Christopher’s fiancée, so he had to respect her at some point.
Despite sensing how awkward the atmosphere had become since she entered, Fanny couldn’t care less. Showing a kind smile to Angela, she asked, “Angela, how are you feeling? I cried as soon as I heard you were injured. I know you don’t like me, so… I didn’t dare to come and visit you as I was afraid of affecting your mood.”
Here we go again. Here she goes, putting on a show in front of the elders.
Without giving her much respect, Angela bluntly exposed, “Is that so? Are you not afraid of affecting my mood now? Or did you come here specifically to do that?”
Hearing her words, Fanny bit her lip, lowered her head, and showed an aggrieved expression. “I–I didn’t mean to… I just wanted to make sure you were really okay so I could feel at ease.”
Angela coldly snorted and replied indifferently, “Are you satisfied now that you’ve seen me? You can leave now.”
At this moment, Bruce pointed to the phone screen and waved at Angela. “Angela, come here. Can you help me see what this is?”
The three of them then chatted happily, completely ignoring Fanny’s presence.
Fanny secretly ground her teeth.

When Angela gave her a rude attitude earlier, she assumed that the two elders who were the heads of the family would be dissatisfied with her behavior. At the very least, she expected them to reprimand her, just like her brother and parents, and perhaps teach her a lesson.
However, they didn’t seem to care at all.
In comparison to Angela, Fanny felt extremely unwelcome. She had always been treated like a little princess surrounded by admirers, so being treated so coldly came as a shock to her.
In Fanny’s mind, she should always be the center of attention, no matter where she was or who she was with. She understood that the two elders might have a bias toward Angela because of Jonathan, but she didn’t anticipate the extent of their favoritism.
Initially, she had planned to wait for them to leave before speaking to Angela. However, as she waited, they showed no signs of ending their conversation and completely ignored her
presence.
The more Fanny observed, the more upset she became, feeling as though she might explode at any moment. Afraid of losing control of her emotions, she forced a smile and excused herself, “Old Mr. Lawson, Old Mr. Sanders, Angela… I have something to attend to, so I will take my leave now. I will visit you next time.”
No one responded. Fanny was so infuriated that she swiftly exited the ward.
As soon as she left, the two elders ceased their conversation and stood up.
“Well, it’s getting late, Angela. You should get some rest.”
“Yes, indeed. If someone you dislike visits, just ask them to leave. Don’t let them stay, silly girl…
“And where is Oliver? Why isn’t he keeping watch?”
Angela now realized that the two old men had stayed back to prevent Fanny from disturbing her. She smiled helplessly as she bid them farewell, feeling grateful.
At the hospital lobby, the two old men chatted casually as they waited for their drivers to drive their cars from the parking lot.
Kevin had a joyful expression. “Look at how generous Angela is. Despite facing a nuisance, she remains unaffected. Her mental strength is truly remarkable. My grandson is fortunate to have such a capable wife. I can trust him with the family.”
Bruce was also pleased that his judgment was right.

He had taken a liking to Angela from the start and had worked hard to win over his granddaughter–in–law.

“I must say that your family is truly fortunate, too,” Bruce remarked with a smile. “Your other grandson also married one of the daughters of the Kins Family, didn’t he? Sisters to sisters- in–law. What a wonderful tale.”
Kevin glared at Bruce, snorted, and remained silent. His displeasure was evident.
Just then, their car arrived, so they made their way toward it.
After they departed, Fanny emerged from around the corner, gazing at the disappearing vehicle with a look of defiance and coldness in her eyes.
Those two old men won’t be happy for long.
She tossed the flower basket she had purchased into the trash can, walking away while dialing her phone.
