Terence's hand froze in the air, and his heart skipped a beat. His temples throbbed and he didn't know
how to express his inner thoughts.
"Sir?"
Lisa stood aside and nodded slightly, but she didn't dare to make a loud noise. She didn't know why he
suddenly stopped. The young master's whereabouts were unknown now. She was really afraid that he
would be hurt by Melody.
"Let them go back!"
Exhaling a mouthful of air, Terence smiled. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or sad. His eyes
narrowed slightly, with a flash of light. Fortunately, Thomas had gone to her place.
"But I don't know where the young master is now. Miss Melody just left. I'm really worried!"
Lisa furrowed her brows and felt worried. She had watched Thomas grow up, so she cared about him
very much.
She knew very well what kind of person Melody was. She was indeed too vicious and frightening.
"There is indeed something wrong with Miss Melody's spirit now. If the little young master really falls
into her hands, will something happen?"
Raising his hand to stop Lisa, Terence smiled. He could do nothing to his son. It seemed that he was
more stubborn than Hester.
"He is with Hester!"
After saying that, he left. Since Thomas was fine, there was no need for him to call Melody again. He
didn't want to see Melody go crazy again.
As for Hester, he didn't want to go to her home. Perhaps because he had been neglected too much.
She was always so cold. Even if he missed her, he didn't want to be ignored again.
He missed her when he was not able to see her, and his heart ached when he met her. In comparison,
it was better to choose the former.
"You can send someone to pick up Thomas at night. I have work to do. Don't let anyone disturb me!"
"Yes, sir!"
Lisa nodded her head and felt relieved. Fortunately, the young master went to see Miss Hester. Even if
Miss Hester didn't admit it, she was still his own mother. It was not wrong to be together more often.
However, Thomas, who was greatly shocked by the Qi family's issue, was very happy to stay with
Hester. He lazily lay beside her and fell asleep with his eyes closed.
Hester was reading a lot of documents, occasionally leaving a ray of light to check if he was safe. She
started to think of the question he had just asked.
If Thomas had two mothers, did it mean that Terence and Melody had divorced and he was going to
remarry?
"Hester, what kind of hope do you still have?"
She shook her head vigorously and threw away all the messy thoughts in her mind. She forced herself
to focus all her attention on the documents and stop thinking about Terence.
In the operating room of the hospital, the scalpel in Austin's hand trembled slightly, which almost
caused some trouble. The assistant took a deep breath and hurried to wipe the sweat off his forehead.
"Dr. Austin, you have been standing here for sixteen hours. The operation has come to an end. You
can have a rest first and leave it to me."
Austin took a deep breath and moved his stiff neck. After thinking for a moment, he dodged the position
of the chief and nodded slightly.
"Then I'll leave it to you. Remember, be careful not to touch the main artery, or it will be very
dangerous."
"Don't worry! Dr. Austin, I will be careful."
Hearing his assistant's promise, Austin turned around and left the operating room. Throwing the gloves
aside and washing her hands, he sighed. Then he felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
"Dr. Austin, what's wrong with you?"
Fortunately, the nurse found him in time to avoid the danger of falling. The nurse carefully protected
Austin. He couldn't hurt his hands, or the patients would be in trouble.
"Dr. Austin, I'll call a taxi for you. Go back and have a rest! You are the most famous doctor in our
hospital. We can't let anything happen to you!"
Austin smiled and waved his hand, indicating her not to panic. He knew clearly that his body was not in
danger.
"I'm fine. I just can't stand it. I'll be fine in a while. Don't worry!"
The nurse looked anxious. She helped Austin to sit down, looked through the operation arrangement
and breathed a sigh of relief.
"There is no surgery for you. Go back to sleep early!"
"Okay, thank you!"
Austin nodded slightly with a faint smile on his pale face. He moved his stiff neck and smiled bitterly. It
had only been more than ten hours. How could he faint?
Or, was he be so sluggish after he had no goal to work hard?
"I'll be back soon. Go ahead with your work. Leave me alone!"
Although she was worried about Austin's health, thinking of that she had to inspect the ward, the nurse
nodded and left.
"Dr. Austin, you can call me if you need anything. I have to go now."
"Okay!"
Austin replied indifferently and lay on the chair wearily. He pinched between his eyebrows with one
hand, wondering what Hester was doing now.
She just opened a law office and took over the case of the hospital. She should be trying to improve
her medical knowledge now! He looked up at the clock and realized that if he went back at this time, he
might be able to cook for her!
Thinking of this, Austin struggled out of the hospital, hailed a taxi, told him the address, and fell asleep.
When he arrived, he gently opened the door and slowly walked to the door of the study.
Austin stood at the door and looked at the scene inside, feeling very uncomfortable. Thomas nestled in
Hester's arms. His face was red, but with a smile.
At the same time, Hester was busy with a stack of documents, not knowing what was going on. It was
just a normal scene, but it shocked Austin.
He could convince himself that Hester treated Thomas differently because she liked children. However,
it was only his wishful thinking to tell too many lies, and their relationship would not change.
The blood around him froze and gradually cooled down, he trembling with cold. He couldn't tell if he
was really cold or because he was too afraid. He once wanted to be generous, but the three years he
had stolen had made him unable to make up his mind.
Austin left the door of the study slowly and walked into the kitchen at the corner. He put on the apron
skillfully, washed vegetables and cooked.
A burst of fragrance floated in through the gap, and Hester really felt hungry. She put the document
aside, carefully put Thomas aside, and opened the door.
"Brother Austin, you are back."
