Chapter 297 Stop Pretending

“What do you mean? You need to come to the hospital today! Otherwise, I’ll cause a scene at your school and expose you as being a heartless person who wouldn’t even save her own mother!” George was in trouble with the police, so he was willing to go to extremes if he thought that it would benefit him.

“It’s been a while since we last spoke, and it seems like you’ve become even more shameless.” After Angela finished speaking, she abruptly ended the call.

George hadn’t expected Angela to have the audacity to hang up on him. He was on the verge of exploding in rage! He tried calling Angela a few more times, but each time, she ended his call. Later on, he couldn’t even hear the dial tone on his end. It was as if he had been blocked!

“The audacity! How dare that brat block me!” George was fuming. He left the hospital in a rush and headed to Angela’s residence. He knew Angela’s address in Springgate Estates, but upon his arrival, Oliver intercepted him at the gate.

With a stern expression, Oliver set down his meal and questioned George. “What’s the matter?”

“I need to see Angela!” George was still seething, and his demeanor turned even more hostile after being stopped by Oliver. “Mrs. Lawson does not wish to see you.” After Oliver spoke, he resumed his meal at the table in the yard.

George was taken aback by the other man’s words. “I am Angela’s father! How dare she refuse to see me? Let me in immediately!” he exclaimed angrily. However, Oliver completely disregarded him and continued eating. George was both frantic and irate, and he began to shout.

He didn’t seem to care about the potential ridicule or embarrassment he would face then. He simply demanded to see Angela immediately.

“Shush!” Oliver eventually stood up and opened the gate. Just as George was about to enter the gate triumphantly, Oliver lifted him up and tossed him several meters away from the gate. “You can continue shouting now.” George’s face paled as he attempted to rise and grab Oliver. Yet, Oliver effortlessly threw him over his shoulder and onto the ground.

“Ouch! Ouch! It hurts!” George lay on the ground, howling without any concern for his dignity. With no one else around, he howled even louder. “Stop pretending. Why are you clutching your stomach? You fell on your bottom!” Oliver found it rather amusing to watch the man howling on the ground.

George ceased holding his stomach. His bottom was indeed a bit sore, but he was too
