Chapter 580 Thorne awkwardly turned his face away.
Even though Thea was slow to notice, she sensed that he was in a bad mood. She quickly walked up to him, but Thorne turned his face away again and refused to look at her.
Thea, helpless, threatened domineeringly, âIf you continue to ignore me, then I will forcefully take action, you know?â
As soon as the words fell, she saw Thorne distancing himself from her.
He wanted to see what measures she could take to deal with his sickly condition.
move o Thea took the initiative and held his face, not allowing him to then she leaned down and kissed him.
French kiss, it was the first time Thea had been so proactive and focused. Thorne suddenly opened his eyes, a satisfied smile shining in his narrow gaze.
Thea was almost suffocating, âTheodore, did you let the air out?â
Thorneâs face now wore a look of grievance, and he gently wrapped his arms around her slender waist. âThea, you know that my health is not good. Life is unpredictable. Can you please cherish every moment we spend together in the future? When I am around, can you refrain from chatting with other men?â
Thea sighed helplessly and explained truthfully, âHe is the doctor I found for you. He asked me about your condition online, so I definitely had to cooperate with him.â
Thorne frowned and became emotional, saying, âIf he can take away your attention from me, then I would rather not be cured.â
He was young and had a particularly pleasant voice. When he acted coquettishly, he exuded both masculinity and gentleness. Theaâs heart melted like a soft thread. âOkay. I promise you. From now on, I will only look at you.â
Thorne showed a proud smile.
The two of them had been inseparable for three days in a foreign land. It wasnât until the third day that Nora realized their agreed time with Thorne had expired.
Noraâs personal secretary asked her, âMadam President, do you want to go to the appointment?â
Nora was very arrogant and said, âJust a cripple, what is there to fear?â
She took out the ring from her bag, pondered over it repeatedly, and wondered, âHow come heâs not anxious to find it back when the ring has been lost for several days?â
The secretary said, âPerhaps he still doesnât know that his ring fell off here with you.â
Nora tightly clenched the ring in her palm and said, âHe wasnât the kind of careless man.â
The ring entered a state of darkness and underwent an instant transformation.
1 Nora felt a restlessness from the ring in her palm, and she suddenly opened her hand. When she saw the partially open wings of the ring, revealing the hidden microphone inside, she was so shocked that she dropped the ring.
After hesitating for a while, Nora finally picked up the ring from the ground. At this moment, her face was extremely gloomy, completely opposite to her arrogant attitude just now. âArrange a meeting with Thorne immediately, I want to see him.â
It was still the same café as last time.
The difference was that this time Nora was on pins and needles, occasionally looking towards the door.
Nora stood up quickly until Thorne arrived.
âDid you finally come?â
Thorne laughed, âSo eager to see me?â
Nora slammed the ring on the table and asked, âWhat is this?â
âOh, my ring. Iâve been searching for it for so long, how did it end up in your hands?â Thorne retorted, âNora, one should return lost property. Itâs been three days already, and youâre only giving it back to me now?â
Nora was speechless.
She did remember. Thorne placed the ring on the table, but he didnât let her pick it up. It was her own greed that made her hand it over to him.
Chapter 580 âThorne, you were so cunning.â
Thorneâs face suddenly darkened, âItâs not that I am cunning, but that you are too greedy.â
He raised a chip and said, âInside here is the evidence of your illegal transfer of assets from the Miller Group. I will submit it.
Take care of yourself.â
Nora panicked, âThorne, I was willing to voluntarily return these assets.â
Thorne stared at her and said, âAlright. Iâll give you one week.â
Nora closed her eyes heavily, as if it had been a long dream. When she woke up, she found herself back to the time when she had nothing.
âI was not a greedy person.â
She told Thorne a tragic story, âWhen I was a child, my mother worked as a nanny for the Miller family. This position made me feel insignificant among a group of privileged people, and it caused me to become introverted and insecure.â
âBut I, on the contrary, fell in love with Robert, while Robert loved the Mayorâs daughter, the high and mighty heiress of the Capital. I loved in a humble and painful way, because when my mother found out about my feelings for Robert, she feared I would make a big mistake, so she insisted on me being with another servantâs son.â
âI knew my mother, she thought I was not worthy of a nobleman. But I was proud and looked down upon the son of a lowly maid who was born just like me. Because of this, I bravely confessed my feelings to Robert.â
âMy unconventional thoughts were met with ridicule by everyone. They said I was like a frog dreaming of eating swan meat.
Since then, the people around me looked at me with disdain. A group of young people also started bullying me, and I lived in immense pain, eventually developing depression.â
âLater, Lady Miller found me and offered to send me abroad for further studies... I must confess, I had no idea that I was her daughter. It was only recently when I had a sudden idea to do a genetic test between her and me, that I discovered how close our relationship should have been.â
Nora cried with tears and said, âI just found out that she did all of this because of me.â
âBut this kind of love suffocated me. I never dared to believe in her, I was afraid of her... afraid that she would treat me like she treated the Miller family.â
âI am willing to return the assets of the Miller Group, but I have one condition. Please let me live anonymously and have a few days of peace.â
Thorne asked her, âDid you not want your biological mother?â
âAfter I was born, as far as I can remember, my birth mother was a nanny.â
Thorne said, âRemember, your birth mother was Uma.â
After saying that, Thorne left.
He handed over the decisionâmaking power to Nora herself.
