Chapter 96 Double-faced
Chapter 96 Double-faced
She always easily aroused his anger, but his rationality calmed him down.
She was just stubborn. He should forgive her!
Christian did not dare to speak again for the rest of the journey.
They arrived at the hospital and went directly to the VIP floor. The doctor greeted them with joy on his face.
"Mr. Patterson, Mrs. Grace Patterson woke up for a while, but now she fell asleep again, which is normal.
"We have checked, and the congestion in her brain has dissipated. Go and have a look. I believe she will recover completely in a short time." Christian's frown relaxed, nodded lightly, thanked the doctor, and then walked to the ward.
Anastasia followed closely behind.
In the ward, Grace's condition had stabilized. Her complexion was ruddy and serene. Clearly, she was recovering well.
Standing outside, Anastasia also let out a long sigh of relief.
If something happened to Grace, she would feel horrible for the rest of her life.
Then, they listened to the doctor talk about Chad's condition, which was more serious.
Not long after, James and Lamia also came.
Lamia pretended to be very concerned and sad and started crying while standing outside the ward.
If Anastasia had not heard her calling and cursing Grace on the phone, she would really have believed in Lamia's acting.
Seeing that the two of them were here, Anastasia did not want to stay any longer.
She simply turned around and went downstairs.
While standing downstairs and making a call, Lamia chased her down.
Lamia's complexion was very hostile, and her critical eyes scanned Anastasia.
Anastasia glanced at her lightly without any emotion in her eyes.
"Mrs. Lamia Patterson, what is it?"
Seeing how Anastasia was in a different and better state than before, Lamia could not help but get angry.
All the ladies around her were asking her why her daughter-in-law seemed to be doing better after the divorce.
Lamia's tone was sharp and mean as she said, "I've told you many times to stay away from Christian. Why are you so shameless to keep making excuses to get close to him? A broken woman like you..." Before Lamia finished speaking, she paused for a moment, and her expression immediately became elegant and generous as she looked at the person walking over from behind Anastasia. "Ms. Amanda Graves, you're here..."
Five or six staff members followed Amanda. She did not have a single wrinkle on her face, as if time just favored her. Standing with Lamia, they seemed to be from two generations.
Amanda was wearing a lavender dress and had a clear and noble temperament. She was carrying a limited-edition Hermès bag, which was casual and expensive. Although she was wearing sunglasses, she could be recognized at a glance.
With a bit of caution on her face, Lamia greeted her with a warm smile. "Ms. Amanda Graves, I heard that your husband is also doing business. If there is a chance, we can sit down and have a cup of coffee..." Lamia deliberately put her bag, which symbolized her status, in front.
However, Amanda's bodyguards immediately blocked Lamia's approach.
Lamia's complexion changed slightly, and she said with a smile, "I am the lady of Patterson Group. Christian Patterson is my son."
She thought that by saying that, Amanda would be extra polite.
However, Amanda just glanced at her and ignored her. Instead, she at Anastasia beside her.
Amanda smiled and beckoned, and Anastasia walked over obediently. Amanda stood there, smiled, and took his daughter's hand. "Why are you here?"
Anastasia pursed her lips. "To visit a patient."
Amanda nodded but did not ask further questions.
"Our crew has something to do. Let's have dinner together tonight?"
Anastasia nodded with a smile.
Amanda also smiled and then led the others directly to the elevator.
From the beginning to the end, she ignored Lamia.
Lamia's complexion changed a few times, especially when she was ignored in front of Anastasia. She felt that she was humiliated and suddenly became angry.
"Why is she so arrogant? She's just an actor. Plus, she doesn't even dare to tell the public that she married a rich man. Maybe she's the mistress or something!"
