Chapter 187

Allie froze as Anna hit her, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses. When she looked
up, everyone saw a clear red

fingerprint on the left side of her face.

She trembled and covered her face, staring at Anna as if she couldn’t believe that she would do that.
She said, “How dare you hit me,

Anna!”

“1 slapped you for Dad! Dad is still in the operating room, for God’s sake! When Dad wakes up, I hope
you’ll apologize to him.”

Allie’s heart thudded, and she bit her lower lip. She remembered that she had just gotten so angry that
she had accidentally said that Dad was going to die.

She didn’t expect Anna to remember that and won’t let it go.

“We‘re in a hospital now, and the operating room is right here! If you want to cry and make a scene, get
out and fool yourself wherever you want. But, if you want to stay, just shut the fakup!” Anna said. Her
voice was low, but her every word was very firm and

assertive.

Allie looked furious. She tried to break free of Shirley’s grip and argue with Anna.

At that moment, Peace, who had been silent, said indifferently, ‘Allie, didn’t Anna’s slap wake you up?
You’d better shut the hell up



before security comes. If you keep shouting and disturbing the operation, I might hit you. But even if
that happens, the police won’t

blame me.”

“You…”

“Allie, it’s okay, stop it.”

Shirley immediately shielded her daughter behind her. Although she looked embarrassed, she
apologized, “I’m sorry, Allie was so

upset just now. So, she said what she shouldn’t have said. Well, we certainly hope that Frank will wake
up soon. We’re going to take a seat

over there, and we won’t say anything anymore.”

Shirley was aware that this was a critical moment in determining her and her daughter’s fate later. So,
they couldn’t leave there no

matter what. She had to stay here with her daughter even if Anna would humiliate them.

Anna glanced at them indifferently. She just sat down again without saying anything.

A while later, the doctors and nurses had dispersed the onlookers.

And the hallway was quiet again.

Everyone in the hallway could hear the clock ticking, as if it slowed their heartbeat.

“Mom, why did you do that? Did you hear what she said about me just now?”



Shirley lowered her voice, and her eyes turned sinister. She said, “Well, no matter what she says, she
won’t get a penny more. As long as your father never wakes up, you and I are the legal heirs to most of
his property. Anna will get no more than those houses, and

there is absolutely no way she can take over the company.”

“Mom, how can you be so sure that my father won’t wake up? What if he…”

Shirley smiled indifferently and said, “There’s no ‘what if’, dear. Even if he wakes up today, he might not
wake up tomorrow. Believe

me, he won’t survive long.”

Allie winced as if she couldn’t believe what her mother was saying. She hesitated for a moment and
said. “Mom, are you sure you

Wanit bij do this! After all, he’s my father.”

“Don’t be sllyYou treat him as your father, but he only cares about his youngest daughter Anna. Honey,
I’m doing this all for our

future. Don’t worry, all we have to do now is get through the next few days. I swear, they won’t find out
what I did.”

“Bofil, Mom”

the surgery lasted for more than six hours. Just as the doctors were walking out of the room. Anna
clenched her lists. Her hands

were even bleeding as her nails sunk into her delicate palms. Yet, she acted as if she was unaware of
it.



“Doctor, how is my father?”

“Don’t worry, the surgery went well, and your father is fine for now. But, he’s going to be in ICU for a
while.”

Anna breathed a sigh of relief, and Peace then immediately held her up.

After checking Frank in, Allie and her mother stood in front of the ICU for a long time and didn’t leave.
They acted like they couldn’t

bear to leave Frank.

Anna also stood at the door for a while and peered inside the ward through the window. Frank had a
number of tubes on his body,

and that made her devastated. She bowed her head and wiped her tears away before heading straight
to the office of Frank’s

doctor.

“Mr. Gabriel passed out because his liver function is severely degraded. In fact, anyone at his age can
get this disease, and it’s

caused by his unhealthy diet and habits. You know, I’ve told you about this before. He fainted today,
and that is a warning. Honestly, Miss

Gabriel, you need to be prepared for the worst.”

“What? Are there no other options?”

“We can only give him medicine to keep his body in this condition. But, it’s almost impossible for him to
recover. You know, once



the organs are damaged, it’s almost impossible for them to get better.”

“Well, I got it. Thank you, doctor.”

Anna had already prepared for the worst. However, when she heard the doctor’s words, she still
immediately trembled all over and

did not know what to do.

Before she left, the doctor suddenly called out to her and asked, “By the way, Miss, I just looked at his
labs, and I found something

weird. One of the trace elements within Mr. Gabriel’s blood is abnormal. So, does he usually take
health supplements?”

Anna stood still and felt somewhat puzzled. She replied, “Yeah Oh, is there anything wrong with taking
supplements? He has a lot

of them at home.”

She didn’t know much about it because Frank grew old and often got sick and many people would
bring him health supplements

when they visited him. Usually, Frank would have a little pf them.

“He can’t eat anything other than the medication prescribed by the hospital. Also, there are some foods
he can’t eat. I’ll list what he can and can’t eat, and then please show it to his caregiver. When Mr.
Gabriel wakes up, you must ask the doctor if he wants to eat

anything.”

“Okay, I got it. Thank you.”



As Anna walked out of the office, Peace immediately went to her side and asked, “How did it go?”

Anna shook her head and looked upset.

Peace hesitated for a few seconds and said, “Well, actually, Wayne just came by.”

Hearing that, Anna froze for a moment. She looked at the lunchbox Peace was carrying and didn’t say
anything.

“Hey, he brought you something to eat. You know, I was too embarrassed to say no. I said you were in
a bad mood and told him to

“Well, thanks.” Anna replied with a frown. She really didn’t feel like meeting Wayne at that point.

“But when he lett. A he went after him.”

Anna lopked up, alted surprised, and asked, “What? Why did she do that?”

Peace shook her head and said tentatively, I have no idea. Well, why don’t you check it out?”

Hearing this, Anna immediately took iwo quick steps. But then, she seemed to remember something
and slowed down.

“What’s wrong?” Peace asked.

“You know what, just forget It She can do whatever she wants, and I don’t care about that at all.”

After saying that, Anna turned around and walked toward the ICU. Peace sighed and then walked after
her with the lunchbox.

Wayne and Allie went to a café near the hospital.



“A cappuccino, please,” Allie said. She looked at the menu, glanced up at Wayne, and asked, “What
would you like to drink?”

“Water, please.”

Wayne said grimly. By saying “water,” he meant he didn’t want to talk to her.

Allie tried her best to keep a decent smile on her face as she handed the waiter the menu and said,
“Hey, I just heard that you and

my sister broke up. Is that really the case? Well, that’s okay. You know, many people will go through
messy breakups. Besides, my father

has spoiled my sister since she was a child, and she has an unbearable temper. So, few people can
put up with her. Actually, I don’t think

this is your fault.”

“Is that so? Is this what you want to tell me?”

“Oh, no, of course not. Although I’m not quite sure why you broke up, I think I need to tell you
something about Hanna. Otherwise, you might feel deceived and hate our whole family.”

Allie looked at Wayne and asked, “Do you know why my sister went to America back then?”

“Back then, when she went to a nightclub one day, she got drunk, slept with a man, and got knocked
up. She gave birth to her daughter without knowing who the father was. And she left for America
without even telling us just to keep it as a secret. Also, she stayed

there for six years!”
