Chapter 1844


    Tina was slightly amused.


    Looking at I''s innocent little face on the screen, she found it difficult to refuse her suggestion. She


    said with a smile, "Okay..."


    I waved her chubby little hands at her mother, and then ended the video call.


    Tina put the mobile phone into her pocket. When she looked up again, she happened to see Bill,


    who was also wearing a hospital gown, and standing in front of the pedestrian bridge made of ss.


    His hands were crossed behind his back, and he was looking up at the night sky outside.


    Themplight and moonlight intertwined and shed on Bill''s handsome and wise face, making him


    look a little mncholy.


    Tina halted her steps. However, thinking of I''sst words, she walked forward again.


    Bill was still very weak, and his face was not as ruddy as a normal man''s. A nursing worker was


    hired to take care of him on a daily basis.


    Tina said, "Chairman Amery..."


    Bill heard Tina''s voice and turned around. He immediately became delightful and smiled. "Tina, are


    you here to take a walk!"


    He then made a gesture to the nursing worker. Thetter nodded and went to a remote ce, not


    wanting to disturbmunication between the father and daughter.


    Tina nodded. "Yes... I ate too much for dinner. Let''s take a walk. It''s good for the digestion!"


    Bill looked excessively thin after he got sick. His eye sockets were deep, and there were obvious


    dark circles surrounding his eyes. Tina thought that he might be anxious about the operation


    tomorrow, and therefore she tried to console him. "Chairman Amery, you don''t have to worry too


    much about the operation tomorrow. It''s not that difficult to cure leukemia nowadays. I also


    suffered from leukemia before. Look at her now... After the bone marrow transnt, she has


    be a healthy little girl again!"


    Knowing that Tina had misunderstood him, Bill shook his head with a smile.


    He exined, "I''m not worried about the operation.


    I just... thought of your mother."


    There was a clear pause in hisst sentence, and his sound was lowered at that moment.


    Tina didn''t say anything else.


    Bill looked at the night sky outside the window. The beautiful moon was surrounded by bright stars.


    There was a look of concern in Bill''s eyes. "Many years ago, in nights as beautiful as tonight, your


    mother and I often watch the stars together!"


    Tina couldn''t help sighing.


    She then smiled. "You must be very affectionate toward each other when you were young!"


    "Yes, very affectionate indeed!" Bill nodded. Thinking about the happy old days, Bill became very


    emotional.


    When he recalled Tina''s mother, his eyes became very tender. "At that time, I fled from the Amery


    family because I wanted more freedom, and at that time I had nothing to support myself. I went to


    work in a small designpany where nobody know my real identity. All the female colleagues


    thought that I was just a poor young man, and no one wanted to be nice with me. Ovia was the only


    exception. She didn''t care about whether I was poor or not. We actually fell in love at first sight...


    "At that time, we could only rent a house which was almost the cheapest. It was only about a dozen


    square meters, but it had a small balcony. Ovia liked to watch the stars there at night together with


    me, and she smiled very happily every time!"


    Bill paused for a while. "Later, I took her back to the Amery family. We also watched the stars


    together on the balcony of our house, but Ovia never smiled again. I knew that since I went back to


    the Amery family with Ovia, she had been unhappy, but I selfishly wanted her to get used to it.


    In the end, Ovia might still feel that this kind of life was not what she wanted, and she could not


    ept being ''trapped'' by a rich and powerful family like the Amery family. She told me that she


    would be depressed for the rest of her life. It was her who proposed breaking up with me, and she


    was very determined with that!"


    Bill''s voice was bitter. "But I really hadn''t expected that she would be pregnant. If I knew, I would


    definitely not let things be like this..."


    Tina sighed again in her heart.


    "I can only me fate for ying tricks on me..." She thought.


    Bill smiled, yet this time there was more selfmockery in his smile. "Maybe for Ovia, she loved


    herself, and her own freedom more,pared with me!"


    Hearing this, Tina shook her head tenderly. "She actually loved you more, otherwise she wouldn''t


    have chosen to give birth to me."


    It was many years ago. At that time, core values of the society were not as enlightened as they


    were now. As a result, an unmarried woman had to bear more pressure.


    Ovia could have chosen not to give birth to that child and kept on leading her own life as she liked,


    but she did not do that.


    At such a young age, Bill and Ovia both found that their love rtionship could no longer go on.


    Although Ovia had her own pride and prejudice, she still loved Bill deeply. Even if they had broken


    up, she still wanted to give birth to Bill''s child, who could be the only reminder of Ovia''s happy


    memories with Bill.


    Bill was slightly taken aback. Gradually, an air of sudden realization appeared in his eyes.


    When he learned that Tina was his biological daughter, Bill was happy, and at the same time could


    not understand Ovia''s purpose.

    Why didn''t she tell him that they virtually had a daughter?


    As a father, Bill had his own right to be informed.


    More than 20 years had passed since Ovia gave birth to the child, and Bill still knew nothing about


    it. If he did not find out the truth by chance, he would have been kept in the dark for the rest of his


    life. Ovia was indeed too cruel for Bill as far as this was concerned.


    At this moment, after hearing Tina''s words, Bill felt that there were tears in his eyes.


    He seemed to feel relieved and painful at the same time, but he had also gained a lot of constion


    from Tina''s words.


    Tina changed the topic and said with a smile, "By the way, I just had a video call with I. She told


    me to send her good wishes to you!"


    When Bill heard this, he smiled again. Children''s sincerity could always go straight into the depths


    of people''s hearts. He was in a good mood now. "Is that so? Tell I: I thank her very much!"


    Seeing the sparkling light in Bill''s eyes, Tina suddenly realized why Wilson taught I to call him


    "Grandpa".


    As both Wilson and Bill were fathers, Wilson would sympathize with Bill, who still could not


    recognize Tina as his daughter, and at the same time was diagnosed with a serious disease.


    And the childish good wishes from I were a great constion and encouragement for Bill.


    Tina bit her lips. After hesitating for a while, she looked at Bill in a somewhat unnatural manner and


    said, "Chairman Amery, I also hope you can get better soon!"


    Bill could feel the concern in Tina''s tone, and he was deeply moved. This feeling was just like


    somebody who was sitting in a room with a firece, while the atmosphere was warm, cozy, and


    comfortable on such an early-winter night.


    Bill nodded confidently. "Okay, I''ll be fine soon!"


    Tina smiled slightly.


    Suddenly, the sound of steady footsteps could be heard. Wilson, who was holding a coat in his


    hand, slowly walked over to them.


    In fact, he had already arrived here for a long while. Seeing that the father and daughter were


    talking to each other, he deliberately did not greet them. When they almost finished their dialogue,


    Wilson chose a time point to show up.


    Wilson put the coat on Tina''s body and smiled at Bill. "Chairman Amery!"


    Bill nodded as a reply.


    He then smiled and said to Tina and Wilson, "It''s gettingte. Tomorrow, we''ll receive the operation.


    I have to go now. Tina, don''t stay up toote. Take a walk, and then go back to your ward to have a


    good rest!"


    "Uh-huh!" Tina nodded.


    Bill called out to the nursing worker, who was standing not far away, and then the two of them


    turned back to the ward.


    Under themplight, Bill''s shadow was cast on the


    ground. Although he still looked weak due to his illness, his steps were much more vigorous than


    before.


    After seeing Bill leave, Tina and Wilson walked around the enclosed pedestrian. When it was


    getting darker, the two of them returned to the ward.


    After washing up, Tina was urged by Wilson to go to bed early.


    In northern regions of the country, the hospital wards were generally warm because of central


    heating. Tina was now lying on the bed and covered with a quilt. Her eyes were filled with reflection


    of the outline of Wilson''s handsome face.


    She closed her eyes and felt the warmth of his thin lips on the corners of her lips. He said to her


    almost in a tempting tone, "You''re going to receive the operation tomorrow. Go to sleep early. Good


    night!"
