Wicked Scheme Lost a problem Got a man novel Chapter 85

Chapter 85
After work. Felicity rushed to the hospital where her dad was bring hospitalised. It was finally the day for his surgery, and she wanted to be with him through it.
She arrived there before Connor was wheeled into the operating room, so they had a little chat.
Connor’s face lit up when he saw her, “Felicity, my dear child. I saw the news. Our company has moved up to one of the top ten in the country because of you. I’m so proud
Thanks. Daddy. I had help” She flushed.
“What you did was simply remarkable. How did you know partnering with that recycling company was a good idea, or releasing those illuminating paints? To think I had declined that project”
“It was merely an intuition. Felicity shrugged.
Connor chuckled. “That’s some great intuition you got there. You can be my business adviser from now on.”
Felicity laughed. Seeing him happy brought her joy.
“How are you feeling?” she asked, with worry creeping back into her heart.
“I’m fine, stop worrying. He tapped her hand gently, “Doctor Gerald has taken good care of me, and I’m no longer in pain. Your husband also comes to play chess with me often.”
“He does?” Felicity asked, surprised by the revelation.
“Yes, on most evenings. I have to say, I can see why you married him. He was a good choice, Connor said fondly, but in the next second, his face switched to concern, “How is Patricia? She doesn’t visit me anymore. Is she alright?”
Felicity smiled sadly, stroking her dad’s hair softly. He didn’t know that Felicity had refused to tell Patricia which hospital he was in for fear that she might bribe someone to harm him.
“I heard I was poisoned. You don’t suspect it was her, do you? Patricia wouldn’t do such a thing. Someone must have bribed one of the maids to do it, probably the Walkers, He added with disdain. Refocusing his attention back to Felicity, he continued, “Anyways, tell your Aunt to come to visit me and tell her not to be angry about the company. I’ll open a small business for her after I’ve fully recovered.”
Listening to her father talk, Felicity’s resentment and anger only grew. Her dad had nothing but love for that woman and she had tried to kill him. She couldn’t wait to reveal the truth.
The evidence against Patricia was sitting in her handbag and she planned to show her dad after his surgery. Patricia transgressed against Connor, so Felicity would leave her punishment up to him.
But if he refused to punish Patricia out of love, Felicity would step in and do the needful.
“Dad, after your surgery, I’m going to tell you something important. So, you’ll have to pull through to hear what I want to say, okay?” Felicity said.
“Are you pregnant?” Connor’s eyes lit up in excitement.
Felicity laughed, “You will find out after the surgery. As she finished talking Gerald came in along with some nurses to wheel him into the theatre.

Chapter 85
Gerald nodded a greeting towards her and smiled, “Don’t worry, your dad will be alright.” He said.
“Thank was very much, Felicity replied gratefully as she watched them take her dad away,
you
She collapsed on a chair in the hallway, bowing her head in worry. Her dad had died in her past life, what was the assurance that he wouldn’t die again today? This made her very com
Jerking her knee anxiously, she glanced at the empty hallway. The hallway was silent and there was no one around owing to the fact that it was night and this was a private ward. The silence and smell of disinfectant overwhelmed her. The emptiness reminded her of how she died in her last life-lonely with no family or friends. What a pitiful life she had led.
Even now, she was still lonely with no one to be with her at this critical moment. Was it her destiny to always suffer alone? Leaning against the wall behind her, she shut her eyes but slowly pried them open when she felt a hand on her shoulders. Im sorry I’m late. Im here now,” Noah’s soothing voice sounded before her.
Felicity lifted her head and tears welled up in her eyes when she saw him really standing there. She had thought she was hallucinating
* came” She muttered, her voice breaking, surprised that he remembered the surgery. He was still in office wear
You suggesting he came straight from work,
“Of course, I came.” He said, sitting next to her before drawing her into a hug when he saw her quivering lips. “Don’t be scared, you’re not alone. Your dad is going to be alright, okay?”
Felicity nodded into his chest, relishing the moment while it lasted. That was right, she was no longer alone now, she had a husband. They pulled apart but Noah still placed a comforting hand over her shoulders. They stayed like that for a couple of minutes before Felicity heard three familiar voices approaching.
Felicity! A voice called out. Looking up, she was stunned to see Lilian approaching them with flowers. Behind her were Axel and fan dressed formally.
Felicity looked both confused and excited, “Lilian, what are you doing here?”
“I asked them to pick her up,” Noah answered, “I figured you needed a friend.”
Felicity was touched immensely. A moment ago she had no one but now, she was surrounded by people thanks to him. How was she ever supposed to repay this favour?
Mouthing him a thank you, she pulled Lilian into a hug. “I missed you,”
Lilian grinned playfully. Tm honoured to be missed by the one and only Felicity Orion,” she teased, making Felicity chuckle. “I brought flowers to celebrate your father’s successful surgery,
“He’s still in the theatre, Felicity corrected, accepting the flowers,
“But I have faith it will be successful,” Lilian reassured her, patting her back before turning to greet Noah.
After Lilian left, Axel gave a small wave before pointing at lan and himself, “We are here too.”
I noticed, Felicity blurted.
I told you she didn’t want us here,” Axel told lan, but fan brushed past to hug Felicity… to her surprise and Noah’s dismay.

He pulled away and brought out a box from his pockets. Im sorry for the kidnapping incident last time. It was Axel’s idea
“Don’t pin this on me! You agreed to it Axel protested from the back, but everyone ignored him.
Opening the bos. Felicity gasped at the diamond bracelet sitting inside. Shaking her head, she hastily handed it back to him. Tcan’t accept that it’s too expensive.”
lan looked puzzled, it wasn’t that expensive, and by the way you can’t reject a gift.
no, I still can’t” Felicity refused, “You need the money more than me, trust me
Noah stepped forward and snatched the box, glaring at lan. “Don’t give my wife expensive gifts. That’s my job”
lan raised his hands in surrender. “I mean no harm, but I had a feeling you would say that, so I got you a gift too.” He produced another box from his pocket, opening it to reveal a diamond watch. It’s a matching set with the bracelet. Consider it a late wedding gift,”
Lan wiggled his brows knowing that Noah couldn’t refuse the gift. He liked anything that linked him to Felicity and matching accessories was perfect.
Noah’s expression softened a little, and he began to like the gift. The feeling of matching with his wife made him happy. Hiding a strle, he handed the bracelet over to Felicity. “We can’t reject a wedding
