Waiting For a Girl Like You - Chapter 1073 It Is Enough That You Know Me

Sean briefly paused before asking.

The person on the other end of the line was bent over the table with her shoulders slumped forward, seemingly trying hard to suppress her giggle. Her face radiated warmth and happiness as she couldn’t stop smiling when she heard his voice. But she didn’t want him to know. “I’m having breakfast. I’m not like you. I don’t have anyone preparing breakfast for me. I need to go out myself and get my own food,”

Sally snorted, while her eyes landed on Cody, who at that moment was approaching her. He held a tray in his hands loaded with breakfast that he bought for her.

Although her face showed a neutral expression, her heart was actually singing in delight. Her Uncle Sean still thought about her, and what surprised her more was that he initiated the call.

She then scolded herself for thinking that he was busy dating this woman and had forgotten all about her.

“Well, you should eat more. You didn’t eat at all, here in the hospital,” Sean merely reminded her, feeling a little relieved when he heard her voice. Then he casually said, “Come back and take your things. I’ll ask Carl to pack them up for you.”

Sally had been staying at his ward in the past few days. And now, the closet was full of her things, including her clothes, snacks, electronic devices, and her childhood baby doll. —

Sean gently shook his head as he counted them in his mind. He almost winced when he recalled that he even asked her to keep the doll in the closet every day. Now, thinking about it, it was not suitable for such a childish object to be in a man’s ward like this.

Sally’s face immediately turned sour when she heard the last sentence that Sean said. Her mind was screaming the moment she realized that he was only calling because he was annoyed at her stuff.

Before Sean could say anything more, she suddenly hung up the phone. She didn’t give a damn. And as anger quickly consumed her, she slammed her phone on the table.

“What’s wrong?”

Cody thoughtfully asked as soon as he came over, staring at her sullen face. Earlier, when he was halfway to their table, he noticed the sudden change in her facial expression.

“Nothing. Just a crank call!” Sally lied. She eyed the breakfast porridge in front of her. She didn’t feel like eating anymore. She replayed the recent conversation she had with Sean in her head, and she was groaning inwardly, blaming her uncle for making her lose her appetite altogether

“Don’t let the call ruin your mood. Here, eat some porridge. You look like you’ve lost a lot of weight lately,” Cody urged while busying himself, arranging all her favorite dishes on the table.

Not in the mood to talk, Sally merely nodded as she took the food from him.

Cody casually sat opposite her as he already had his breakfast earlier. A worried expression flashed on his face as he silently watched her consume her food. Feeling uneasy, Sal

d looks.

“So why didn’t you go to school?”

Sally probed. She spun around and quickly tapped her face to keep the mask in check before she regarded his face intently. Although his face looked like her father’s, their personalities were very different.

Unlike his father, Adonis was not a gentleman at all. He was always mean to everyone except his mother.

She vividly remembered one particular instance. It was at their friend’s birthday party. A girl once missed a step and was about to fall into the swimming pool, she grabbed his arm instinctively to prevent herself from falling.

Any rational person would try to grab her arms and help her up with no questions asked.

However, he pushed her hand away and quickly stepped back a few steps, not caring one bit. When the poor girl fell into the pool, many people’s clothes got wet from the splash, except his.

“You tell me. Father called me and asked me to go to the hospital to visit Uncle Sean.”

With his arms crossed over his chest, Adonis looked at her squarely and suggested, “Don’t you always love to hang out with Uncle Sean? Do you want to go with me and check on him now?”

Sally was thankful that she was wearing a mask. Otherwise, Adonis could have easily seen her facial expression. “Well, I’ve just taken a shower and haven’t changed clothes. I’ll go another day. You go first. Bye!”

Sally blurted out as she could feel her heart hammering in her chest. She ran downstairs as fast as she could, not even waiting for the elevator. She just wanted to get Adonis out of her face.

Adonis was too smart to be fooled. He just stood there unmoving, staring at the door through where her sister went out.

He saw through his sister as he saw how quickly she ran away.

Shaking his head, he let out a deep sigh, and felt worried about his sister.

He couldn’t help mulling it over, ‘There are lots of men in the world.

But how come she only has a crush on our uncle.’
