Chapter 3

When I woke up in the hospital bed, Hudson was right next to me.

When he saw me open my eyes, he furrowed his brows.

"I thought you were dead. You're really spoiled."

My face was pale. He glanced at me and wouldn't let it go.

"You almost died after drinking wine. What a loser!"

When I woke up, he looked worried.

I thought that if I pretended to be weaker, he would feel more sympathy for me.

I didn't expect that his words would hurt me so much.

Even after so many years, I was still not used to it.

I lay on the hospital bed and looked at him opposite me.

For a moment, I felt a little familiar with this scene.

I finally remembered something.

When I was a child, my mother was a nanny hired by the Carter family.

The first time we met, Hudson put me in the hospital.

It was the first time I had seen such a big mansion.

I was extremely curious about everything inside. No matter how long I looked around, I was not tired at all.

"Claire, stay outside and wait for me. I will go in and greet Mrs. Carter."

I was obedient and didn't move at all.

However, in less than a minute, someone threw stones at me.

I turned around and the stone hit my forehead.

Immediately, I bled.

I couldn't speak, so I cried silently.

But seeing this, Hudson acted as if he had seen something strange.

He was even more excited.

He pointed at my nose and laughed.

"A mute? You're a mute!"

He walked around me and shouted,

"You know sign language? Show me."

At that time, he was already one head taller than me, so I could only pace anxiously.

The next second, a stern voice was heard.

"Hudson Carter! Get over here!"

With the roar, I fainted and fell to the ground.

Later, I found out that she was his mother Margot.

When I woke up from the hospital again, there was an additional system in my body.

It told me to get Hudson to fall in love with me.

As long as he loved me dearly, I would be able to speak again.

And I could also get great wealth.

Margot felt very guilty because her son hit me the first time we met.

In the following days, she took good care of me.

"I'm leaving. Stay in the hospital yourself."

Hudson's voice pulled me back to reality.

When I looked up again, he already left.

Looking at his back, I couldn't help but ask the System again.

"Is he really the person I'm trying to get?"

"Yes, you're 95 percent done."

As I made more progress, I asked the System many times.

Because I couldn't understand why a man who loved me more and more would keep hurting me.

...

However, even the System could not answer this question.

After Hudson left, I fell asleep again.

In my dream, my mom was combing my hair.

When I woke up, she was gone.

She would never come back.

At the gate of Carter Mansion, Hudson and Margot quarreled.

Hudson ran away from home in a huff.

Unexpectedly, a car rushed over from the opposite side in the next second.

At this critical moment, my mother rushed out.

He fell to the ground and just had a slight concussion.

However, my mother was gone from this world forever.

They said that the driver was going to kill Hudson because he had been fired by the Carter Group.

He lost his job in his middle age and was rejected everywhere.

He went mad, followed Hudson's father Fred back, and hit Hudson with his car that afternoon.

That was why Margot recognized me as her goddaughter.

I could live in Carter Mansion for the rest of my life.

...

My cell phone suddenly rang.

Speak of the devil. It was Margot.

"Claire, where are you?"

Before I could finish editing the text message, she interrupted me.

Her tone was anxious.

"Oh, I forgot that you can't speak."

"I don't know where Hudson is now. Keep an eye on him for me."

"What's wrong with Freya? I'll never allow her to marry my son."

"There are photos of them together. Claire, you're very close to him. Please talk some sense into him."

She kept talking without giving me a chance to speak.

Even after I hung up the phone, she had not thought of asking about my situation.

However, this happened all the time.

Sometimes, I thought that even if my mother hadn't been killed because of him, Margot might also keep me and my mother at her house.

...

There was no other reason. In Margot's eyes, I was Hudson's sidekick.

I could keep an eye on him every day.

And because I was mute, she didn't have to worry that he would fall in love with me.

The next second, the photo mentioned by Margot was sent to my phone.

At the same time, there was another piece of news.

"They're at the beach now. Claire, hurry there. I don't like Freya."

In fact, even without Margot's request, I would still follow Hudson.

She really got the right person.

I endured the intense discomfort at the gate of the hospital and hailed a taxi to go to the seaside.

On the beach, many couples were holding hands intimately.

But no matter how hard I tried, there was no sign of Hudson.

A gust of wind blew and I shivered.

My allergy had not subsided yet, and I felt dizzy.

I probably had a fever.

Before I left, I looked around again, but I still didn't see them.

I could only give up.

Unexpectedly, I turned around and my head was spinning.

And I heard someone say, "Be careful."

Then, I fell into the arms of a strange man.

Against the sunlight, I couldn't even see his face clearly.

"Are you all right?"
