Chapter 458: Chapter 400 No Escape
"That’s good. It’s been hard on Dr. Hanson during this period of ti." When Nina heard that Tom’s legs were almost healed, she heaved a sigh of relief and smiled subconsciously.
Harley stood at the corner, and when he saw Nina’s expression, he couldn’t help but feel sad. After thinking about it, he decided not to go out and disturb the two good friends for a while.
If they were to see him at this ti, it would be much more awkward.
lissa knew that Nina still could not forget Tom. Before Nina returned to Houston, she wanted to go to the hospital to visit him. Thinking of that, lissa probed, "Luca will be going back to his chateau in a few days. Since you’re back, do you want to go to the hospital with
to see Tom tomorrow?"
"Alright."
Nina nodded without hesitation.
When Harley heard this, he lowered his eyes and subconsciously pinched the edge of the dish, but he still pretended that nothing had happened and took out the cupcakes to share with them.
In the hospital.
Nina had been thinking about Tom all along the way, but when people approached the place they had missed, they might get nervous instead of happy. The closer Nina was to the hospital, the more uneasy she beca.
lissa could tell that Nina was nervous. When they were about to reach the door of the ward, lissa pinched Nina’s palm. When she pushed the door open, Tom heard the sound and turned his head.
The mont he saw Nina, he was stunned and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
"Tom, Nina said she wanted to see you. She just ca back from Houston, so I brought her here."
lissa put the flowers and fruits she had bought on the bedside and turned to look at Nina, rubbing her fingers together. "Then you two can take your ti and chat. I’ll go out and make a call."
After lissa left, Nina looked at Tom. Her eyes were red, but she could not shed a tear.
She missed him very much, but she did not know what to say.
After a long while, Nina smiled and said, "Tom, it’s been a long ti. I heard from lissa that your legs are about to recover."
Tom forced a smile. When he saw Nina, he had mixed feelings, but he tried to pretend that he was fine and chatted as usual.
"Yes, Dr. Hanson is very professional. The injury to my leg is almost healed. He said that I should rest for a while. If there are no further problems, I can be discharged.
"You ... you don’t have to worry."
When Tom said this, he was very nervous, and even a little timid, but he did not show it.
Nina was stunned for a mont and then nodded. She said with a smile, "Alright."
After that, there was a long period of silence. Nina moved her fingertips. In the end, she did not know what to say. Tom was the sa.
Perhaps both of them felt that the other party would speak first with a topic, but in the end, they found that they were becoming more and more distant.
...
Ryleigh had been busy with the wedding. Since the news that she went to try the wedding dress was released, Ryleigh beca very proud. Now everyone knew that she was about to be the Gibson Corporation CEO’s wife. It was equivalent to a trump card in her hand.
"Okay, okay. I will go to see the venue you designed this weekend. See you later. Bye."
Ryleigh had just hung up the call with the staff at the wedding venue when another call ca in.
Her face instantly beca serious, and there was nervousness in her eyes.
Needless to say, it was Sebastian.
"Hey, Seb..."
"Don’t call my na!" Sebastian sounded angry. This was the fourth ti he called Ryleigh in the past few days. "Ryleigh, let
ask you again. Did you get the proposal? I don’t have that much ti to waste."
"Seb, Murray has completely trusted
now. Give
a little more ti and I will be able to get the proposal soon..."
Ryleigh did not want to hand over the proposal photos so soon. This docunt, as well as Murray, should be used to threaten Sebastian.
At least that was what she thought.
Sebastian sneered, with so inexplicable aning, "Okay, aren’t you asking
to give you ti? I’ll give it to you. Just wait."
The phone was hung up. Ryleigh was a little uneasy, but she quickly forced herself to calm down. Perhaps she was just overthinking.
Sunday, in the jewelry store.
Ryleigh had just finished trying out the custom-made engagent ring she wanted in the store. After making an appointnt to pick up the finished product, she happily left the store. However, just as she went down the stairs, soone covered her mouth and took her away.
"Help! Help!"
Ryleigh wanted to shout, but she could only make an ambiguous sound. The man in black who took her away walked to a secluded corner, opened the door of a black car, and stuffed Ryleigh in.
"It isn’t easy to see you."
Ryleigh took a deep breath and heard Sebastian’s voice before she could recover.
She widened her eyes and turned around in surprise. She found Sebastian sitting next to her, looking at her with a faint smile.
"Seb..."
The mont Ryleigh saw him, almost all the blood in her body was frozen. Her hands were stiff. She instinctively wanted to escape, but Sebastian grabbed her hair and pulled her back. She frowned in pain, and after a long ti, she forced a smile and looked at Sebastian carefully.
"Ryleigh, I gave you such a long ti, and you still told
that you haven’t got the proposal. Where is the thing I want?" Sebastian asked coldly.
Sebastian’s last sentence was stressed. Ryleigh unconsciously trembled and was still trying to put it off, "Murray is too strict. He doesn’t let
into the ho office at all. Wait longer..."
"Cut the crap!"
Sebastian’s voice beca fierce, his palm grabbing Ryleigh’s cheeks. He looked at her gloomily, showing that he had no patience.
"I’m telling you, there is a limit to my patience. If you don’t give
the plan of the amusent park, I don’t mind telling Murray that you are a fake Lily.
"You will never be able to escape from my grasp!"
Sebastian gritted his teeth. After he finished speaking, he released his grip, throwing Ryleigh aside.
Ryleigh’s pupils contracted and panic appeared on her face. Her heart was beating rapidly.
If Murray knew that she wasn’t Lily and that she was only pretending to be her, then everything she had painstakingly planned would be gone.
No, I absolutely won’t let it happen!
Ryleigh thought about it, and then made the decision. She hurriedly took out her phone from her bag. Her fingers were still trembling slightly. She opened the photo album, found the few photos of the proposal she took that day, and sent them to Sebastian.
"Seb, this is the proposal I found in Murray’s ho office. These are all. I have sent them to you..."
