Chapter 890


    Chapter 890 Charity in the Snow


    “Don’t worry, the child will be fine,” Tom whispered to Nina who was sitting on a bench.


    His voice drew her back to reality and she looked up at him smiling.


    “I can’t believe you saved our family, I haven’t said thank you to you yet.”


    “Don’t worry. You don’t need to thank anyone,” Tom replied.


    Hearing his words, Nina didn’t know what to say, so she just nodded and continued to focus on her


    daughter.


    Not long after, Kasen Paul and Ariana were pushed out of the operating room by a nurse.


    “Mom and Dada!” Nina screamed, running towards them with True Paul in her arms.


    The surgery went well but Kasen Paul and Ariana were asked to spend a little more time at the hospital


    so they could be helped to fully recover from their injuries. After exchanging pleasantries with Nina, the


    couple two returned to the ward.


    After being sure her parents were okay, Nina knew she had to finalize their hospitalisation procedures.


    She was about to carry her daughter downstairs to book a ward when she saw Tom standing in front of


    the elevator door as soon as she stepped out to the corridor.


    “Are your parents okay?” Tom asked. He was afraid of what Kasen Paul’s reaction would be if he saw


    him, so the former had kept his distance.


    Now Nina could smile. “My parents need to be hospitalized, I will go downstairs and go through the


    hospitalization procedures.”


    “I’ll go with you,” Tom offered, trailing behind her.


    Nina thought for a while, considering that it was inconvenient for her to run up and down with the child.


    So she nodded with the conviction that Tom could help out in some way. It turned out, with the help of


    Tom, the hospitalization process was indeedpleted quickly.


    The two then came back to the door of Kasen Paul’s ward, with the child being rocked in Tom’s arms


    while Nina went in to persuade her parents to rest early. A few minutester, Nina came back to the


    corridor, only to be surprised by the sight of Tom humming a nursery rhyme.


    “True Paul has a fever, right?” She asked, joining him on the bench.


    “Well, yes. I felt her shiver a little when I touched her head.” Tom handed the child back to Nina as he


    spoke.


    After a while of not-so-awkward silence between the two of them,


    Nina began to notice that it was gettingte.


    “Tom, you can go back to rest now. I can take care of my parents myself,” Nina asked.


    “How do you n on doing that when you need help?” Nina wanted to argue but she could tell he had a


    point. “Whether we are lovers or friends, I think I must protect you, so I can’t leave you at this time


    when you need me the most.” His tone was serious and he spoke without holding back.


    “But you also have your job, and you will have to go to work tomorrow!” Nina protested.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    “No, I already quit my job,” Tom replied with a casual tone.


    “What?!”


    Nina was stunned for a moment. She clearly remembered that before giving birth, Tom said that he


    would work harder and that he would take care of their mother and daughter. Although things had


    changed and Nina could no longer ept the care of Tom, she did not expect him to quit his job.


    “Why? Are you dissatisfied with your previous job?” Nina asked in confusion.


    Hearing her inquiries, Tom sighed.


    “There is no reason. It’s not that I don’t like it, I just don’t want to do it” Tom said, shrugging as if the


    matter wasn’t something worth making a big deal of.


    A long time ago, after he broke up with Nina reluctantly, he vowed not to find a girlfriend in his life. In


    the following years, he had gone to the western region as a teaching supporter. During this period,


    even if ady showed attention, he would never reciprocate the same.


    Tom never wanted to let Nina down. He wanted to guard her even if he couldn’t have her and she was


    married and bore children to someone else. That’s why he returned to the city when he heard that Nina


    had a new boyfriend, who was not only from a good family but was also a well-known actor in showbiz.


    The first time he hade to know about Harley, Tom had felt even more inferior. He hid in his rented


    apartment, praying that Nina witness nothing but goodness with Harley.


    But, unfortunately, the good times did notst long. Sylvia announced the news of her pregnancy on


    the Inte and caused an uproar, which led to the breakup of Nina and Harley. After he reunited with


    Nina, Tom rekindled his desire to reunite with her. Only as time passed, he found out that Nina’s heart


    seemed to be no longer long for him and she had truly fallen in love with Harley.


    Learning about Nina’s new love crushed Tom. He quit his job and began using alcohol as a means to


    escape from his problems every day. However, she couldn’t tell Nina these thoughts, so he joked to


    lighten up the already tense mood.


    “I n to go on foot, first travel all over the country and then travel around the world!”


    “Really?” Nina asked in disbelief.


    “Yes, that’s why I quit my job. So I could have enough time to prepare in advance for such an


    adventure.”


    Tom kept making fun of Nina’s questions and they kept on chatting till dawn. By the time they finally


    dozed off, with Nina with her baby in her arms, and Tom beside her, it was half past six in the morning,


    Suddenly there was a voice in front of them, and the two were awakened by the voice at the same


    time.


    “It’s dawn!” announced the nurse who was pushing a cart into the ward to change the medicine for the


    parents. Nina hurriedly handed the child over to Tom and followed her into the ward.


    Nina went back to the corridor and saw that Tom was interacting with the baby with expressions, and a


    small smile formed on the corners of her lips. Sincest night, Tom finally saw Nina’s heartfelt smile,


    and he was very happy. he handed the child to her and stood up.


    “You take care of the child first, I’ll go out and buy breakfast for you,” Tom announced and stormed off


    without waiting for Nina’s approval.


    About 20 minutester, just as Nina was feeding the baby milk powder in the ward, she suddenly heard


    someone knocking on the door outside.


    “Is that a nurse?” Ariana, who was lying on the bed, asked weakly.


    Nina’s first guess was that Tom was back, so she replied with, “I’ll go out and see,” before strolling


    towards the door with a look of uncertainty.


    Holding the child who had just eaten enough to open the door,


    Nina saw Tom carrying his breakfast, sitting alone on the bench, panting.


    “Thank you for your hard work, Tom, and thank you for going out to buy breakfast,” Nina said, Walking


    up to Tom. “c’mon. Enough with the thanks,” Tom groaned, handing the parcel to Nina.


    Rolling her eyes, Nina epted Tom’s breakfast but nned to hire a hospital nurse during the day, at


    least it could save them a lot of stress. She then walked into the ward and brought breakfast to Kasen


    Paul.


    “Mom and dad have breakfast, Tom went out to buy it for you!”
