"I am a nurse at the hospital; I am mute, so you don't have to worry about me bothering you. I WILL QUICKLY LEAVE once I finish my work, and you can pretend I don't exist. Moreover, from now on, I can only communicate with you this way." This was the condition that the Hulce family and Thomas Anderson agreed to. She decided to help him, using any means, any identity, but not as Demi Moore."A mute person with a blind person, they make a fitting pair," he sarcastically remarked, although deep inside, he thought that maybe it wasn't wrong. He could sink into silence again and continue his sad existence if she were a mute person.Demi Moore stood quietly next to Tom Hulce, observing his pensive face, feeling disheartened. Until now, she had never thought she would meet him again in such circumstances, where she couldn't speak, and he couldn't see.o0o"Demi." Thomas Anderson saw her leaving and said joyfully, "Thank you, Demi." He knew that Tom had hurt her a lot in the past, and now she
"Isn't it?" Thomas Anderson stared straight into Tom Hulce's indifferent eyes and said, "Maybe it's because I've been too busy lately?""But Tom, can you reconsider the treatment?" He couldn't help but bring up the topic again. Although he had mentioned it before, Tom remained stubborn and refused to listen. Sometimes he really wanted to confront him directly and force him to face the truth."You're right; I am stubborn." Thomas Anderson gritted his teeth, but in the end, he could do nothing."Thomas, where is she? When will she come?" Tom Hulce fell silent for a long time, then suddenly asked a vague question, leaving Thomas Anderson bewildered momentarily. Who is "she"?"Why are you talking about that nurse? She'll come tomorrow. She still has a lot of work to do. She can't be here taking care of you every day." Thomas Anderson evaded the question, knowing that Tom paid a lot of attention to Demi, but he had made a promise to her and couldn't let Tom know the truth."You still want
"I won't go. Because... I've promised your parents and you, Thomas, that I will take care of you until you recover." She finished writing and stood up, pushing the wheelchair back towards the hospital room. She wouldn't leave because she was someone who kept her promises, not because of him.o0oThe doctor carefully examined Tom Hulce's eyes inside the hospital room while everyone else stood by, hoping to hear good news. The doctor said that the injury to his leg wasn't severe, but his eyes were difficult to treat."Mr Hulce is recovering quite well but must undergo surgery to recover fully. Although the chances of success are low, I hope everyone agrees to try it. After all, having a glimmer of hope is better than having none.""...""Do you agree... to let me operate on you? If you don't want to, I will use my own eyes to exchange for your voice, even though I am blind now." After a long silence, Tom Hulce suddenly turned to Demi Moore and asked a question that stunned everyone. Tho
"Demi, I told you this place is for me to work. How could you take it away from me?" The man angrily exclaimed, clutching the documents tightly to his chest, afraid someone would snatch them away."Demi, why are you eating so little? If you continue like this, I will become a pig, and you will become a bean sprout." The man lightly pinched her cheek and then his face before sharing half of his meal with her.'Ace...' Her lips moved gently, and the pen in her hand suddenly fell to the ground. She bowed her head, hastily picking up the pen to continue writing. Her computer was broken and couldn't be repaired, so she had to write all the documents by hand, significantly slowing her down. But honestly, she liked it that way. Being busy left her with less time for idle thoughts. It kept her from reminiscing and feeling pain.o0oIn the Senoxrita Castle, Nancy wore a Chanel outfit, with her fingers adorned with two giant diamond rings. Arthur was always generous with her; he would give her
Changing into a neat outfit, Tom Hulce felt more at ease stepping out, his gaze towards Thomas Anderson filled with a hint of complexity."So, you went looking for Demi, and she kicked you out?" Thomas Anderson stared directly at Tom Hulce, unable to comprehend how he could remain so composed."Yeah," Tom Hulce admitted nonchalantly. After all, he had already seen that demeanour, so knowing this wouldn't change anything."Tom, I don't know how to advise you properly, so I've always stayed silent. But this time, I truly hope you can resolve things fairly. You hurt her once, don't let it happen again." He sighed, stood up, and patted Tom Hulce's shoulder."I have things to attend to, so I'll go ahead. And you can start working at the company now." He lowered his head, looking at Tom Hulce's fully recovered legs, deciding not to bring up that matter.Tom would naturally find out after a few months as Demi's unborn child grew. His only concern was if he knew, would he be able to admit it?
"Demi, what do you need?" Tom Hulce smiled at her, feeling highly touched inside. It was the first time she actively asked him to stay.Demi Moore held his hand and slowly wrote, "The loss of the child is not your fault; I am also to blame. If we had been more careful back then, perhaps we could still have...""...""Go to sleep; I'll step outside for a while." Tom Hulce carefully tucked her hand under the blanket, then turned and walked out. Demi Moore watched his lonely figure and suddenly felt regret in her heart.Closing the hospital room door, Tom Hulce leaned against the cold wall, his hand clenched tightly. It still seemed to carry a hint of her warmth. Demi was the only light in his life, and would do everything to protect her; regardless of whose child it was, he would love it dearly. He had once lost her and didn't want to lose her again.No man could easily forgive the person they loved for carrying someone else's child in their womb, but he no longer had a choice. That chi
"Who on earth could create such a story?" Tom Hulce leaned back in his seat, his shoulders aching and barely tolerable. If this were indeed the work of a single person, then that person would be the most formidable opponent he had ever encountered.Meanwhile, Thomas Anderson seemed to ponder something, lost in thought for half a day. He finally let go of the documents in his hand and spoke carefully. "In this world, not many can manipulate the stock market at will. I hope it's not him."Tom Hulce raised an eyebrow. "You mean, 'him'?""That's right," Thomas Anderson nodded heavily. "We all know 'he' is untouchable, the owner of Hoai Thuy Castle in the United Kingdom, known by everyone as 'Dark Emperor Arthur Hoai Thuy.' Someone who can control the entire stock market at will but rarely engages in such activities. I also don't believe they would target someone of that stature."They had never met each other, so hopefully, this time was just an unusual event unrelated to that person. Bec
But she didn't pay any attention to it; a girl was walking rapidly towards this direction, continuously tapping her phone, utterly oblivious to anyone on the road.It wasn't until she collided with Demi Moore that the mobile phone made a loud "thud" as it fell to the ground, splitting into two pieces, and she finally looked up."Don't you have eyes? How can you suddenly stand in the middle of the road like this?" A sharp voice echoed, so high-pitched that it made Demi Moore's ears hurt a little.Demi Moore was pushed back step by step, frightened, using both hands to protect her abdomen. The previous accident had haunted her for a long time, and now every step she took had to be cautious, but just because she didn't collide with others didn't mean that others wouldn't.The girl bowed her head to pick up the mobile phone, furrowing her brows in annoyance. The phone she had just bought had already shattered into two pieces."There are only a few like this in the world. Can you compensat
