Chapter 30 Alexander's face turned dark , and he shot a stern look at his son . " You don't have a mom , just me , He knew Daniel would eventually figure out Monica was his mom . But thinking about how Monica almost killed his kids back then , he had no intention of letting them acknowledge her . Daniel clammed up immediately . The room's atmosphere took a nosedive . Joseph didn't stick around ; he grabbed the food and left . He was bummed out too , thinking . If he hates her so much , why did he still make me bring her food ? In the room , Daniel looked at Alexander with hurt in his eyes and muttered , " Dad , I want Mom . " ved silent . Alexander stayed silent . He couldn't tell Daniel that Monica had abandoned him and Amelia and almost got them killed . He didn't want to scar them any more than they already were . Amelia , who was eating , heard her dad's harsh words , her eyes welled up , and she almost cried . Alexander's heart clenched , and he quickly reined in his anger , giving Daniel a warning look not to mention that again .. Then , he picked up Amelia and sat her on his lap to comfort her , " Amelia , don't be scared . Daddy's not mad . Be a good girl and eat , okay ? " Amelia hung her head and stayed quiet . She and Daniel still wanted to bring their parents together , but she couldn't understand why Alexander hated Monica so much . It seemed impossible for their parents to reconcile . Daniel was also mad , glaring at Alexander , then picked up a small spoon to feed Amelia . " Amelia , be good , " as he spoke , he gave Amelia a look . Amelia got the message that Daniel wanted her to be patient and that he'd figure something out . Only then did she start eating obediently . Alexander , watching this , was speechless . He had no clue what these two kids were plotting now . 1/4 Chapter 30 Meanwhile , Joseph took the lunch box to room 1915 , but after knocking for a while , there was no answer . He pushed the door open and saw no sign of Monica . The bed was neatly made , like no one had slept there . A passing nurse asked curiously , " Sir , who are you looking for ? " The Ms. Brown who stayed here yesterday , did she get discharged ? " " Yes , she left last night . She was supposed to have an infusion treatment today , but she didn't show up . " Joseph nodded . " Got it . Thanks . " He went back to report to Alexander , " Mr. Smith , Mrs. Smith has been discharged . " Alexander immediately frowned . Joseph added , " She left last night . The nurse said she was supposed to have an infusion treatment today , but she didn't come . " Alexander felt his temples throbbing . She was in so much pain yesterday she couldn't speak , and she just left at night ? Did she not care about her life ? He felt a fire burning in his chest , not noticing that Daniel , Amelia , and even Joseph were all watching him . Daniel glanced at Joseph , thinking Alexander's reaction was off . Why was he so mad ? Joseph shrugged , indicating he had no idea either . If Alexander liked Monica , he sure had a funny way of showing it . He was the one who pushed for the divorce , and every time they crossed paths , he never had anything nice to say . But if he didn't care about her , why did he act so concerned ? Sometimes , Joseph just couldn't figure out what was going on in Alexander's head . Daniel didn't dwell on Alexander's thoughts . His mind was consumed by Monica , who was unwell and not at the hospital . He was eager to check on her well - being . He glanced at Amelia , and her beautiful eyes were also full of longing . Daniel patted her head comfortingly , thinking he had to find a way to see Monica . Monica went to the office and called Mia in . 2/4 Chapter 30 " Mia , get in touch with the Smith Group today and set up a time to finalize the contract , Monica said . " Are you sure about this ? Mia asked , surprised .. " Yes , business is business , I can't let my personal issues with Alexander affect work . " " You're right . " Mia nodded . " But Ms. Brown , I might not have time today . " " What's up ? " Monica asked . " The Johnson Group contacted us yesterday . They have some objections to our design proposal , so I need to go over and discuss it with them . " " I see ... " Monica thought for a moment . " Then you go ahead . Don't worry about the Smith Group . " " Okay , Ms. Brown . " Mia left . Monica rubbed her aching temples .. She had been trying to avoid any dealings with the Smith Group , especially Alexander , but there was no other way . Everyone had their own work to do . Moreover , she couldn't avoid meeting him forever if the collaboration with the Smith Group proceeded smoothly . Monica took out some painkillers from the drawer and took two , feeling much better . She called Joseph . Joseph was at the hospital . Seeing her call , he didn't answer immediately but looked at Alexander . " Mr. Smith , Mrs. Smith is calling . " Alexander reached out his hand , and Joseph immediately understood , handing the phone to him . Alexander glanced at the two kids beside him , who were both looking at him eagerly. He had no choice but to take the phone outside to the corridor and answer it , " What is it ? " Monica was stunned for a moment when she heard the low , deep voice . She looked at the phone , it was Joseph's number , so why was Alexander answering ? " What is it ? " Alexander asked impatiently again . Monica bit her lip , ' Forget it , who cares who it is . " She pretended not to know who it was and spoke in a formal , cold tone , " Hello , this is Monica from CLOUD . We have agreed to cooperate with the Smith Group . When would be a convenient time for you to sign the contract ? " 3/4 3:41 pm Chapter 30 Hearing her cold tone , Alexander felt the fire in his chest reignite . He sneered , " That's very dedicated of you , Ms. Brown . You were on the verge of death yesterday , and today you're back to work . Do you value money over your life ? " Joseph , standing nearby , was speechless . Couldn't he show concern in a better way ? Monica was also speechless , not knowing why Alexander was angry again . What did it matter to him whether she valued money or her life ? Her voice turned colder . " Mr. Smith , if you don't have time or have changed your mind about cooperating with us , then forget it . Sorry to bother you . " Chapter Comments LIKE Write Comments < SHARE
