I’m Someone Else

Squeak!

Upon hearing Olivia’s words, Thomas instinctively slammed on the brakes as he felt his heart pound fiercely.

He wasn’t a fool, and even if he were, he could still understand the meaning behind Olivia’s words. It would be strange not to be excited!

“Goodness! Thomas, what are you doing?” Olivia grumbled. The violent shaking of the car almost made her knock her head.

Even if I’m indirectly confessing, don’t you think that you’re overreacting?

Thomas quickly put on an awkward smile and started driving the car again in Keyshire Property’s direction.

Olivia likes me, and I like her too. Should we try… dating? But if we’re together, won’t I become a burden to her? She still has a bright future ahead, but what about me? Leaving out the Ancient Martial Arts Family Ranking Competition a year later, I only have ten years or less left to live. What will happen to Olivia when I’m gone after ten years? No… I absolutely can’t be with her. That won’t do her any good. It will only harm her! What I should do is silently protect her by her side. It’s enough for me even if I can only guard her for the next ten years.

Sometimes, loving someone was not about possessing them. As long as they could live a good life, everything would be worthwhile.

Thomas didn’t fully understand this saying before, but now, he truly grasped its meaning.

“Thomas, why did you react so strongly just now? Don’t you want me to look at you?” Olivia’s cherry lips pouted as she asked with a huff.

“Huh? No, not at all! I just… I…”

As he spoke, Thomas himself didn’t know what to say. Is it because my heart raced after I heard her indirect confession? That’s so embarrassing!
