Chapter 381 The Operating Room (Part One)
"Are you out of your mind?" shouted Noah angrily.
He then forcefully dragged Julie back inside the house and pushed her down the sofa.
"Yes. I'm crazy! I've been slowly losing my sanity since the day I promised Terence that I would become
a substitute for Carla!" Julie staggered up from the sofa and then walked towards Noah. She stopped in
front of him and looked right at him with teary eyes. "You will never know just how much I have suffered
just to be by your side, Noah! I've even changed myself for you. I've pushed myself to learn new things
just so you would want to be with me. But, you didn't even look at me. Why are you so cruel and cold-
blooded?
You've never noticed me. All you have ever cherished is money!
Look, where that got you! You deserve all the misfortunate coming to you. Now you will understand
how it feels to be ignored and hurt by the person you want to be with. I'm going to watch you suffer as I
have."
Julie didn't even look angry as she spoke. In fact, she was even smiling. However, her expression
changed when she saw the terrible expression on Noah's face. Gnashing her teeth in anger, she
continued, "You have fallen in love with Carla, haven't you? Why else would you be this angry?
What a pity! The only man Carla loves is Terence and it has always been him.
I admire her for her strong will and persistence. All this time, she has been with you but she still hasn't
changed her mind. She didn't even think of giving Terence up. I'm so touched by how much they love
each other. It's truly inspirational! I don't know if I could do the same if I were her."
Every woman in this world, including Julie, would fall for the person who could be with her every day
and take care of everything for her. However, Carla was an exception to most women because she
loved Terence so much that she could even sacrifice her life for him.
Julie sneered at Noah contemptuously, shaking her head in utter disbelief as she looked down at Noah.
Noah, suddenly finding himself overwhelmed by her words, closed his eyes in exhaustion before he
snarled at her.
"Stop talking, Julie!"
The suddenness of Noah's reaction caused the woman to feel worried. However, she still wept as she
opened her mouth and said, "I will never speak another word about this after I am done with what I
want to say today.
I've always been waiting for you to turn your back and give me a glance, Noah.
I did that willingly because I knew for a fact that no one else could love you as much as I do.
As a matter of fact, I love you so much that I don't even care whether you are the president of Hua
Group or a beggar on the street. Regardless of who you'll be, I will always be with you."
Julie wiped her tears after she was done talking and then she turned away. She was crying silently and
didn't even give Noah a glimpse.
Awkward silence suddenly permeated the air around them, as both of them remained silent, lost in
thoughts.
After a while, Julie heard the door open and then slam shut almost immediately.
Upon realizing that Noah had left, she immediately felt so relieved and relaxed that she fell to the floor.
It was only then that she could let go of all her emotions.
Julie had exhausted all the courage she had to confess her love for Noah this time. Without thinking of
the consequences, she just wanted him to feel her love.
She finally realized that Terence was right about everything. It was true that Noah was no longer
unbreakable. Since Noah now knew what it was like to love another person, she could now use her
love for Noah to avoid getting punished by him.
Now, Noah knew how much it hurt to love someone who would never love him back. They were finally
on the same boat now. Therefore, it would be safe to assume that Noah would never hurt the only
woman who really loved him unconditionally.
Noah walked out of Julie's home and immediately drove back to the villa in the southern suburb.
Everything made sense to him, now that Julie had already admitted to being Carla's substitute that
night.
The baby Carla was carrying wasn't his. He was breaking in pain just at the thought of it. He was so
furious that a gruesome plan formed in his mind. He couldn't let that baby live no matter what.
"You are finally back home, Noah."
Carla looked anxious as she welcomed him home. She was standing by the gate and was just about to
walk to the Hua Group to check up on him.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Something urgent came up so I had to deal with it quickly. Get in the car
now!" Noah opened the car door for her, gesturing at her with his hand to get in.
Carla fastened her seat belt as soon as she sat on the car and then looked at him. Having noticed the
unease in his disposition, she said, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"It's nothing. Don't worry. It's just that thing about the merger." Noah looked away from her and focused
his sights on the road. Only God knew how angry he was as he spoke in a casual tone.
"Don't worry about that too much, okay? There are some things that need to be done slowly and
patiently. We'll find a good solution for it later." Carla nodded as she persuaded him. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
However, Noah didn't reply and he kept pretending to shift his gaze to her still flat belly. An
indescribable emotion flashed in his eyes but then he concealed it by speaking in a gentle tone. "Do
you need to visit the doctor for your check-up today, Carla?
I remember mother saying that you are scheduled for a check-up this week, right?"
