I’m Someone Else

Chapter 109

“Ugh… I hate to admit that I’m old, but I haven’t slept for only one night and I feel like I’m about to collapse. I can’t compare myself to you young people!” Quincy yawned and muttered quietly, “I’m going back to get some sleep. Call me if you need anything.”

Thomas nodded. “Thank you.”

“What are you thanking me for? I should be the one thanking you.”

Thomas smiled. He knew that Quincy was thanking him for ‘The Imperial Acupuncture.’

After watching Quincy leave the ward, Thomas continued to stay by Olivia’s side. After about an hour, she slowly woke up.

“Are you hungry?” Thomas helped her sit up and asked gently.

“Mm.” Olivia nodded slightly.

Fortunately, Thomas had bought some breakfast along the way when he returned to the hospital. Then, he fed Olivia.

Her face turned red, and she didn’t dare to look at him. This was the first time she had been fed by a man other than her family member.

It would be great… if Thomas were her boyfriend. He was such a caring and considerate man! However, he might not be interested in her at all.

She was puzzled. Did he have feelings for her? If not, why was he treating her so well?

“When can I leave this place?” After finishing breakfast, she looked up at him and asked. She didn’t want to stay here any longer.

“You don’t like the hospital?” He looked at her. Could it be that she has nosocomephobia?

“Mm. I really hate this place. I had so many injections here when I was little, and I hate the smell of hospitals.”

Olivia furrowed her eyebrows slightly. Due to the toxins in her body, she had spent a lot of time in hospitals during her childhood, and it would give her a lingering fear when she recalled those scenes.

After hearing her words, Thomas couldn’t help but chuckle. Who would have thought that the Most Beautiful Female Entrepreneur in Irieson would be afraid of injections and hospitals? Wasn’t that something only children were afraid of?

“All right. Let’s pack up and leave. We’ll go to the villa I’ve arranged for you. After that, I’ll accompany you to buy a car.”

Since Olivia only needed rest to recover, she didn’t necessarily have to stay in the hospital.

“Really?” Her lips curled up slightly when she heard this. Great! I can finally leave this place.

Thomas replied, “Of course. Let’s go. Didn’t I promise you that I will never deceive you?”

“A-Are we really going to buy a car?”

“Of course! If you don’t have a car, how can I stick around and be your driver? I don’t know how to do anything else! I would starve to death if you don’t pay me a salary!” He spread his hands while looking innocent.

“Haha!” Olivia burst into laughter. If he had said this when they had just met, she might have believed it, but now, any person with normal intelligence wouldn’t believe his nonsense.

He was a person who could change the ownership of Keyshire Property with a single phone call, and a person who could casually give away 280 million in cash. How could he possibly starve to death just because he lost a job as a driver?

He just wanted to continue staying by her side! Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

With these thoughts in mind, Olivia felt a wave of sweetness in her heart. “Thomas, I want to ask you a question.”

She suddenly became serious. She needed to figure out why he was treating her so well. Otherwise, she couldn’t feel at ease despite accepting the company and money Thomas gave her and living in the villa he provided.

“Go ahead.” He took a puff of his cigarette and sat on a stool while waiting for her question.

“Why… Why are you treating me so well?”

Thomas’ expression froze. He never expected Olivia to put on such a serious look just to ask this question. Is this question really that important? “Because… you’re my friend,” he answered instinctively.

“Oh!” Instantly, her expression changed, and her tone was filled with indescribable disappointment.

Thomas furrowed his brow. What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong? Why does Olivia seem unhappy?

After a moment, Olivia gathered her courage and asked again, “But… your kindness toward me has surpassed that of just friends, hasn’t it? For a friend you’ve known for such a short time, it’s unnecessary to have such a fierce conflict with the Hind Family, let alone sever the relations with the Pearson Family. Also, you shouldn’t have transferred ownership of such a massive company like

Keyshire Property, and 280 million in cash to someone else. Everything you’ve done goes beyond the boundaries of what friends should do.”

After saying this, she looked at him with hopeful eyes. She felt a little frustrated in her heart. I’m a girl after all! I’ve already expressed myself so clearly. Why can’t you admit that you like me? As long as you say you like me, I… I would definitely agree to be your girlfriend! Or do you think liking me is an embarrassing thing?

Even if Thomas were a fool, he would still understand that Olivia had misunderstood his intentions. How should he express himself now? Should he directly tell her that he didn’t like her?

That would seem too damaging to her self-esteem, wouldn’t it?

He could only sigh and say, “Now is not the time to talk about these things. Don’t worry. When you must know, I will naturally tell you.”

Olivia could only helplessly lower her head. After she saw Thomas’ reaction, she knew that her further questioning would likely yield no results. She could only wait for the day when he was willing to speak up himself.

After completing the discharge procedures, he drove her to Villa No. 66 in Northpine Villa.

The villa was decorated in a European style. It was exquisitely furnished with all kinds of high-end furniture. Stepping into the villa felt like entering a royal palace in Europe.

“Wow! It’s so beautiful here and it’s much bigger than the Pearson Residence!” Olivia was like a cheerful little rabbit. She looked around and expressed her genuine admiration.

Thomas smiled lightly. “I’m glad you like it.”

He also took a quick look. It was indeed an outstanding luxury villa, worthy of its reputation in Irieson. That brat was quite considerate.

As it was approaching noon, he placed the keys on the table and said, “Olivia, the keys are here. I need to go back now.”

“Huh? Are you leaving?” She looked at him pitifully. Wasn’t he going to live here? It would be so boring to live alone in such a big house. Ophelie was still at her grandfather’s house, and she didn’t know when Ophelie could move in with her.

“Yeah. I have something to take care of.”

He nodded and walked out of the villa.

Meanwhile, Olivia stood in front of the villa’s entrance, feeling lost. After Thomas’ departure, it felt like something was missing in her heart.
