Chapter 296
"Hey, are you okay? Say something! You can't die. You mustn't die here!"
Easton always liked pretending to be an adult, but he still panicked when he encountered such a thing.
What if he killed someone?
Besides, this woman was good to him. He would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Derek regained his senses after hearing Easton's voice.
He walked over, bent down, put a finger in front of the woman's nose, and then touched the artery in
her neck. "Don't yell. She is not dead."
The man glanced at her torn clothes, then took off his blazer and put it over the woman.
After that, he bent down and picked her up. It was easy for him to do that since she was so light.
How could such a thin and weak woman have the guts to fight those people?
Derek inexplicably had a strange feeling about her and carried her to his car.
Damian looked at this in surprise. He had intended to send this woman to the hospital, but since his
boss did it himself, he didn't have to do anything.
But... She was the first woman that boss chose to get close to after Miss Mason left.
Easton was relieved to hear that Nora was not dead. He quickly followed Derek. "Daddy, be gentle.
She's injured!"
Derek glanced at him, knowing he forgot what had happened just now. "Be quiet."
As he spoke, he opened the car door and placed the weak woman in the back seat of the car. The
space was slightly small, so their bodies were close, but he didn't feel disgusted.
Derek frowned and his face turned cold. Since Meredith's death, he had had no physical contact with
any woman. He was now more obsessed with cleanliness and hated women more.
Although the Xaviers had been arranging for him to go on blind dates with the ladies of different
distinguished families, he had rejected them for various reasons.
He just didn't want to be with any woman again.
The scent of other women would make him queasy and disgusted.
However, this strange woman did not disgust him.
Feeling he was being strange for no reason, Derek was a little annoyed and roughly put the woman
into the car. Then, he left immediately.
He didn't like this strange feeling.
Easton couldn't help but sigh when he saw what Derek did. "Dad, you're so rude. No wonder you've
been single all this time."
Derek was ridiculed by his son for no reason. Hearing that, he just sat back in the driver's seat and said
as if nothing had happened, "Do you think I should throw you into the army and have you be
disciplined, or do you prefer to be sent back to the Xaviers?"
Easton stopped talking and widened his big eyes to express his displeasure. Choosing the first meant
he couldn't have fun with others. Choosing the other meant he would be watched and coddled too
much by the elders and had to be a good boy.
Neither of them was good and funny at all. He hated them both.
Derek saw that his son was quiet and did not say anything more. He quietly drove towards the hospital.
...
In the VIP ward of the hospital.
Nora had a dream.
In her dream, she was wearing a white wedding dress and was happily walking into the church with
Sheldon, but a child appeared at the door of the church. He grabbed her wedding dress and cried
loudly. "Are you my mother? Why are you marrying someone else? Are you leaving me for him?"
Nora was covered in a cold sweat from fright. At this moment, a man who looked very fierce appeared
beside her. He grabbed her arm and roared. "You are such a shameless woman. Abandoning your
husband and son and running away with another man! This is bigamy, and this man is a shameless
man too... Wait to see how I will punish you!"
Then, everything was ruined. The wedding venue was a mess, but she seemed to be frozen in place
and had to see the image that she had longed for gradually collapse...
"No, let me go..." Nora suddenly opened her eyes and gulping in the air filled with disinfectant. Her
eyes were filled with fear and panick.
It was a dream... Nora stared at the ceiling for a long time before she came to her senses. She had
been sweating, and her dry clothes were wet, which made her feel bad.
However, for a long time, the images in the dream did not disappear from her mind.
"Ah, what happened to you? Did you have a nightmare?"
Easton had been watching her, and when he saw that she was struggling, he wanted to wake her up,
but Nora sat up by herself and startled him.
It was only then that Nora saw that she was in the hospital. The white walls and the needles in her
veins all proved that she had just had a nightmare.
Smelling the disinfectant, she could not help coughing, causing pain in several parts of her body.
She looked at the little guy in front of her and remembered what had happened.
At that time, in order to save this little guy, she rushed up. Although she delayed those strong men for a
while, she still couldn't beat them. She was beaten several times, and when she fell down, she fell on
her head and fainted.
Now that she was in the hospital, did this boy get someone to save her?
Nora touched the back of her head, which was wrapped in thick gauze, and it hurt a little. It looked like
her head was hit when she fell to the ground.
But why did she hit her head again and not regain her memory?
Sure enough, the TV shows were full of lies...
Easton, who had been ignored all this time, was a little unhappy when he saw Nora was lost in thinking.
"What are you thinking?"
He had been here for a long time, and she just ignored him. He felt his feelings were hurt. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Only then did Nora realize that there was someone beside her. Looking at the cute little face in front of
her, and seeing that he didn't seem to be hurt, she heaved a sigh of relief.
"Were you hurt?"
Nora was stunned when she finished speaking.
She did not like children. When she saw a child, she would not try to delight them. Instead, she felt
children were troublesome. However, she was genuinely concerned about the little guy in front of her.
Why...
Nora thought about it and looked at his cute face again, thinking maybe it was because this boy was
more beautiful than child actors and she was captivated by his looks.
Seeing Nora staring at him, Easton suddenly blushed.
This woman was really strange. She was hurt but the first thing she did was to care about him. Why?
