I Really Didn’t Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World

You can’t avoid the fifteenth after escaping the first day of the lunar month.

Around nine o’clock that night, Carrie Thomas returned home.

Instead of going straight to her bedroom upstairs, she knocked on Harrison Clark’s door downstairs.

“Next time, come back earlier. It’s not safe for you to be out alone so late at night.”

Without asking too many questions, Harrison let her in and poured her a glass of warm water.

Carrie took off her mask, put it in a ziplock bag she carried with her, and hung her coat on the clothes rack by the door.

“It’s fine, I just bought a car. I drove back.”

Harrison nodded, “That’s good. But still, be careful when driving at night.”

“Mhm.”

She picked up the glass and looked around for a moment.

Harrison’s small suite was still kept clean and tidy, just like when he used to be the apartment manager.

He still didn’t hire a maid, only found an hourly worker.

The condition of the room showed his good personal hygiene and self-management, which had not changed with the change of identity and status.

The slight difference from the past was that the soy sauce on his table had changed from a cheap low-end bottle to a mid-to-high-end product costing about twenty to thirty per bottle.

But in terms of other items that were not so easy to replace, such as sheets and bedding, tables and chairs, they were all the same as before.

After a long while, she couldn’t help but let out a giggle.

Harrison looked puzzled and asked, “What are you laughing at?”

Carrie stretched lazily, extremely relaxed, “I don’t know if you’re just thrifty or too lazy to upgrade your stuff. If people outside knew that you, the esteemed Teacher Chen, still live in a basic apartment for free and use bedding that costs tens or hundreds of dollars per set, it would shock many.”

Harrison shrugged, “As long as it’s usable, I’m too busy now and don’t have time to deal with all that. But I wouldn’t say I’m thrifty either, I’ve been buying a lot of designer clothes lately.”

He pointed to his closet.

“That’s just because you need to go for negotiations or have to attend formal occasions, so you need decent clothes.”

“Alright, that’s true. We can think about improving the quality of life when we have time later. It’s fine now.”

Carrie nodded, “Actually, I don’t quite understand.”

“Don’t understand what?”

“You obviously have a very casual personality. You have amassed a huge fortune in a very short time, and I think it’s about time you take a break. But you’re always running forward desperately, always in a hurry, as if there’s a fierce tiger chasing you from behind. I find it hard to understand.”

Harrison fell silent.

After a long time, he asked, “Has my impatience affected you all?”

“No. I’m just… a little worried about you.”

Harrison patted her shoulder, “Don’t worry about me. Just focus on your music, that’s the biggest help you can give me. I have no other requests, just hope you can be dedicated to your own dreams without distractions and never forget your original intention. You have a precious talent, and you should, and must, do your best to bring it out. I used to be very relieved about you because I could feel your determination. What happened to you recently? Seem to have wavered?”

This was the situation Harrison feared the most.

Carrie shook her head, “I don’t know. And you kept saying how talented I am, but compared to you, I feel like my little ability is like a grain of light trying to compete with the bright moon.”

Harrison was dumbstruck on the spot.

He had been too busy showing off his skills every day, inadvertently flaunting too much, and had damaged the confidence of others around him.

Others were too far away to know the details, whereas Carrie, who had the ability and comprehension, and stayed by his side, could truly experience the extent of his abnormality.

It was a sense of disparity that almost drove people to despair.

Harrison didn’t want this to happen, but it was the reality.

Avril Green, who had only sung her own songs, took the initiative to invite Harrison to sing with her in front of a large crowd.

Carrie, who had been absolutely confident before, began to waver and become distracted due to her self-doubt, and it was all Harrison’s fault.

It wasn’t that she was weak-willed, but that Harrison had gotten carried away with his plagiarism, completely unrestrained.

Anyone would have a hard time dealing with it.

Harrison realized that, unwittingly, the situation had reached a critical point.

If not handled properly, it would be the end.

He banged the table and stood up abruptly, “This is absurd! Unreasonable!”contemporary romance

Carrie was scared by his sudden burst of anger.

“What T? You know how disappointed I am in you right now?” Harrison put his hands on his hips and looked at her with a disapproving gaze, “Who do you think you are? I don’t know where you got the nerve, but how dare you belittle yourself!”

Carrie stood dumbfounded for a long time.

Although she had known about Harrison’s high opinion of her, most of their interactions in the past had been quite calm, with Harrison hardly ever losing his temper.

Not until his sudden outburst of anger did Carrie realize even more deeply.

It turned out he wasn’t being modest or polite, he truly had that much confidence in her.

Ever since her debut, Carrie had received countless praises.

But she never cared about them or felt proud of herself. However, at this moment, her heart was racing like a wild horse on the grassland.

“Thank you. Thank you for your encouragement.”

She gasped, speaking slowly and deliberately.

Harrison saw something off in her eyes, and his heart skipped a beat.

“Mother, am I not scolding her?”
