Chapter 428: Chapter 370 Who Do You Think You Are?
Luca nodded. When he saw Tom’s right leg, his expression turned serious.
Nina held Tom and looked at Luca nervously. When she saw lissa’s gaze, she slowly helped Tom sit on a chair at the side.
Luca removed the old gauze on Tom’s leg and saw that Tom’s wound had worsened.
Luca pursed his lips and carefully examined Tom’s wound. Luca then used his finger to touch the skin around Tom’s wound. Tom frowned and even broke out in a cold sweat. However, Tom still clenched his teeth and did not say a word.
Luca straightened up. Nina’s hands were tightly clenched together as she hurriedly asked, "Luca, how is Tom’s condition... How bad is it? Can his leg still heal?"
Luca shook his head. His expression was very serious. "His right leg was badly hurt. Moreover, it has been for so long. He didn’t properly treat it. The wound has now worsened, and his tendons have been affected. I’m afraid that no matter how hard I try, his wound won’t be able to recover completely. In other words, even if his leg is cured, he’ll still probably be physically challenged."
Nina was stunned. "What?"
Nina thought, how could it be?
Tom seed to know this already. He had no obvious mood swings. Instead, he lowered his eyes and did not speak. He just snorted.
When Nina heard Luca’s words, she imdiately burst into tears. She had cried many tis in the past few days, and such a diagnosis broke her heart. She looked at Tom with tears.
Nina thought, Tom... He must be very sad.
No matter what, I won’t sit on my hands!
Nina made up her mind. She clenched her right fist and looked at Luca sincerely. "Luca, no matter what, please, do your best to cure Tom. You can’t give up on him... Otherwise, he might be amputated. He will be so upset..."
As she spoke, her tears fell, and she subconsciously looked at Tom.
But Tom acted as if he did not hear her. He was motionless.
lissa looked at Nina, and she felt sorry for Nina. lissa then also looked at Luca. "Luca, help Tom."
In lissa’s eyes, with Luca’s dical skills, Tom’s leg could have been cured.
But Tom didn’t take himself seriously, and he made it worse.
Even with Luca’s help, Tom would be physically challenged anyway.
It was such a pity.
Luca thought for a while and finally nodded. "OK. I will try my best to treat his leg for your sake. I’ll go and make so preparation first."
Unexpectedly, Tom, who kept silent, suddenly shouted like a madman when he saw Luca stand up, "No need! I don’t need you to treat my leg! Doctors? Experts? Bullshit! You’re all charlatans! I am nothing but trash! Don’t waste your ti! Fuck off!"
As he spoke, he glared at everyone who wanted to get close to him, especially Nina.
"Tom, that’s enough!" lissa couldn’t stand it anymore. Her heart was filled with anger, and she couldn’t help but shout. She quickly stepped forward and directly hit the back of Tom’s neck.
Tom blacked out.
"Tom, what’s wrong with you? Tom..." Nina was very worried and wanted to go forward to check on Tom.
lissa pulled Nina, pursed her lips, and shook her head to comfort Nina. "He’s fine. I hit the back of his neck so that he could be quiet for a while. In such a way, Luca can treat him more easily."
Then, lissa turned her head to look at Luca, who was walking toward them with dical equipnt in his hand. lissa nodded. "Luca, thank you."
...
It was already evening when Tom woke up again. Nina was sitting beside him with a bowl of soup in her hand.
Tom lowered his eyes slightly and saw that his right leg had already been bandaged anew.
"Tom, finally. You’re awake. I’m so glad... Luca has already treated you and bandaged your wound again."
When Nina saw that Tom was awake, she smiled, and she put a spoonful of soup next to his mouth. "You have already slept for a few hours. Have so soup first. Dr. Hanson said that you can only eat light food now."
"Why did you save ?" Tom ignored the bowl of soup and turned his head to the side, not looking at Nina. After a long while, he said dryly.
Nina was stunned for a mont, and then she pretended that nothing had happened and said with a smile, "You are my boyfriend..."
"I am not your boyfriend!"
Tom interrupted her. He quickly turned his head and glared at Nina. Perhaps because he was angry, even his eyes turned red.
Tom thought, Nina, why can’t you understand?
I’m poor, and now I’ve beco a cripple. Being together with
will do you no good.
Nina, you silly girl. Why did you co to ?
Tom suppressed his heartache and the urge to hug Nina. He gritted his teeth and said to the astonished Nina opposite him, "Didn’t I say that we broke up already? Why did you co to ? Nina, why didn’t I realize that you were so stubborn before?
"You are a spoiled rich girl, and I am just a poor boy. I was only with you for your family’s money. Who do you think you are? Do you really think you’re the love of my life? You think too highly of yourself!"
Tom was practically shouting, and his eyes were fierce as if he hated Nina to his guts.
Nina was stunned. The expression on her face changed from joy, and astonishnt, to disappointnt. In the end, she lowered her eyes and placed the bowl in her hand on the bedside table.
"Tom, you are upset now... It’s OK. I will go now and leave the soup here. Rember to eat it."
Nina walked out of the hotel in a daze. Her eyes were red again. She looked up slightly and held back her tears.
For the next few days, she went to the hotel room to take care of Tom. However, he always looked cold and indifferent. He never said anything good to Nina.
At the bar.
Nina sat at the bar counter, ignoring that the waiter was accosting her. She held a glass of light-yellow whiskey in her hand, raised her head, and took another big sip.
She had had around five drinks in a row.
Nina was drunk, and her face was flushed. She rested her head on her arm, staring at the glass in front of her while muttering, "Tom, Tom..."
Harley was also in this bar with a few friends. After he left the booth, he saw Nina at the bar counter.
He stopped at once and looked at Nina’s back. A trace of sorrow flashed through his eyes.
"I’ll be there." Harley waved his hand in the direction of his friends and then walked in the direction of Nina.
Harley walked to Nina’s side. When he saw the drunk Nina, he subconsciously looked up at the waiter at the bar counter. In the end, Harley only sighed and gently placed his hand on Nina’s shoulder.
"Nina, you are drunk."
