Thea did not answer him, but her hand gently landed on his shoulder, like a butterfly, so light. So cautiously, with
a hint of timid curiosity.
His body visibly stiffened.
“Did | hear that Ms. Thea wants to see me?” he asked.
The voice remained calm and undisturbed.
Thea approached him, as he was sitting in a wheelchair, so she was noticeably shorter. Thea had to crouch down
and looked up at him.
“I was so foolish,” she suddenly cried.
“I clearly saw you before, but how could | not recognize you back then?”
“You helpedpersuade the police officer to explain the details of my mother’s self-immolation incident. |
actually thought it was a piece of cake for you.”
“Why was | so foolish? You were right beside me, always watching over me, but | couldn't recognize you.”
She cried and cried, burying her face in his lap. She cried so hard that her whole body trembled. “Theodore, I'm
sorry, Thea is just too stupid.”
No. 13 looked at her expressionlessly, perhaps not even realizing how gentle and tender his gaze was at that
moment.

He slowly raised his hand. He wanted to touch her, but he ultimately restrained his greedy desire.
If you can’t give her anything, then don’t even give her this idea from the beginning.
“Ms. Thea, | think you may have mistakenfor someone else.”
Thea lifted her head, tears streaming down her face, and said, “I didn't make a mistake. You are my Theodore.”
She started crying again, sobbing, “Theodore, don’t pretend you don’t know me. | know | was wrong.”
The reason | didn’t recognize you last twas because Theodore was withat that time. He looked so much
like you that he gavethe initial impression that he was you. At that time, my eyes were only on him, and |
couldn't pay attention to others.
“But now | know that he is not you, | am certain that you are my Theodore. When | sent you away, the scar on
your hand hadn't healed, your eye ailment hadn't healed, and your leg hadn't healed. But... why haven't they
healed after all these years? Didn't you promisethat you would see a doctor?”
The body of No. 13 suddenly began to shake violently.
He suddenly pushed Thea away and slid the wheelchair into the corner.
The tall and majestic body, at this moment, was desolate like the fallen leaves in the autumn wind. Dancing with
the wind, without a trace of self.

Thea accidentally fell to the ground, and she forgot about the pain because Theodore’s instinctive reaction to
seek benefits and avoid harm made her even more heartbroken.
She sat on the ground, closed her eyes, and tears rolled down.
“Theodore, | didn’t mean to poke your scar. | was just in too much pain,” her voice trembled. “I regret it, if only |
had known, | wouldn't have taken you home. Sob, sob, sob.”
She suddenly burst into tears.
No. 13 turned around anxiously and saw Thea sitting on the ground in a disheveled state, so he turned back.
He extended his hand and said, “Get up. The ground is cool.”
Thea threw herself into his arms, wrapping her arms around his waist.
Now, he couldn't escape no matter what.
“Theodore, tell Thea. What exactly happened? After you chome, why didn’t your injuries lessen, but instead
worsened?”
“What did they do to you exactly? You tell me, Thea will seek justice for you.”
No. 13 pushed her away with a face as lifeless as ashes.
He didn’t want her to fight against those disgusting people for him.
“Are you no longer wanting Thea?” Thea asked, lifting a pair of teary eyes.
She had already guessed that when Theodore chome,

the beautiful future they had imagined was all fake, and what awaited Theodore was definitely a nightmare.
She would eventually catch the operator of this nightmare and torture his heart a thousand times.
No. 13 fell into a dreadful silence... He finally shook his head desperately.
Thea embraced him and said, “Theodore, listen to Thea’s words. You are still young, and the future is still long.
Behave well in prison and strive to get out early. Sister will wait for you to cout.”
“At that time, | will take you to see the aurora, see the sea, and see the first snow. How about it?”
No. 13 let her hold him, and his elusive soul seemed to have finally found a harbor to anchor. His wandering
heart also appeared to have settled.
He used to greatly anticipate going to see the aurora with Thea, to see the sea, to see the first snowfall.
But could his body endure until that day?
“Sorry, | have already seen the aurora, the sea, and the first snow,” he said.
He had indeed watched it many times, all on television. Every the watched it, he really wished that Thea
could accompany him to see the aurora in the Arctic and the shimmering light on the sea.
But in the end, he took the wrong path. He fell into a quagmire.

But Thea was stubborn, “Theodore, | have decided to withdraw all the money from the Maplecrest Enterprises
account balance to cover your debt. | know you probably disagree with my decision, but you need to understand
that | only want you to be well, money is not as important toas you are.”
“Sir Harris said that if you paid off all your debts, your punishment would be greatly reduced.”
“At that time, you donated your electronic surveillance system to the country. Is that okay? This way, you would
have been able to make a contribution. The sentence would have been lighter.”
No. 13 remained silent. He simply stared at Thea with an incomprehensible expression.

Thea smiled at him sweetly and said, “I know, | shouldn't have made decisions for you. But | really missed you so
much. Can you please pityand try to go out and spend twith Thea as soon as possible?”
No. 13 reluctantly said, “Even if you want to donate, you should ask Sir Harris how much money is needed and
contribute accordingly. There is no need to... take out every single penny.” That was the hard-earned money he
had worked tirelessly for. It was his retirement fund that he had earned for her.
He couldn't bear to see her being treated so badly.
Thea raised an eyebrow and smiled, “So you agreed to it?”

No. 13 turned his head slightly, clearly adopting a doting tone, but pretending to be indifferent, “It’s mainly
because you are so difficult to deal with.”
Thea exclaimed with excitement, “Yes, yes, yes, | was being too difficult.“”
She went from tears to laughter.
As she smiled brightly, a touch of tenderness involuntarily appeared in his eyes.
He felt so lucky, he lost the happiness, at least she could still have it.
Thea felt relieved as she had achieved her goal.
At this moment, Sir Harris walked over and reminded, “Ms. Thea, visiting hours are over. You should leave.”
Thea’s mind went blank in an instant, and then she suddenly grabbed No. 13's hand tightly. The expression of
fear of separation, which pierced No. 13's heart, caused it to shrink abruptly as if its heart was being ripped
apart.
Sir Harris felt pity and did not urge her again.
But instead, they stood still and waited for them to say goodbye.
“Theodore, what is your real nafter all? | mean the n| mentioned?”
“My nis Thorne,” No. 13 finally spoke up.
Thea was petrified like a statue...

In her memory, Theo had told her more than once, “My nis Thorne, | am a child of the Sanchez family. | am
also a child of the Brown family.”
Theo, that is Thorne.
Thorne, also known as Theo.
So over the years, it seemed like Theo was accompanying her, but in reality, it was Thorne who was
accompanying her.
