StarNovelChapter 225 He always behaved submissively when I did that to him. No matter how I yelled at him, he would remain silent. After I was done throwing a tantrum, he would cover to hugand butterup.
After a few times, I lost interest in throwing a tantrum at him.
During the weekend, Theo said he wanted to bringout for a walk but I used my swollen ankles as an excuse to stay in bed. He could only leavebe and accompanyin bed while he watched a movie to kill time.
Miss Woods had gone back to visit her grandson.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was no one downstairs, and the doorbell kept ringing.
Theo sat up on the bed. "It must be the courier. I bought your favorite fruits. Cdown and have some." I got up and went into the bathroom to wash myself u p. I was ready to go downstairs to eat something and have a walk in the yard with Theo afterward. Every afternoon, my legs would be badly swollen.
After I got out of the bathroom, I could vaguely hear sobbing noises coming from downstairs.
I got curious and took a step down the stairs.
I stood on the stairs and saw Cindy, who was sitting on the living room's sofa.
It had been a long tsince I saw her. She was wearing another white dress, looking just like a princess. She looked alluring and elegant.
It was just that I had no idea why she was crying so hard. Her delicate makeup was completely ruined. She looked like a mess.
I took a step back. I was not planning to go down anymore. It would be better if I behaved myself and stayed upstairs.
"Your favorite grapes are ready. Cdown and eat." Who would have known that Theo would call out to me? It was strange. He had his back to me, so how did he know I was on the stairs? I bit the bullet and went downstairs. Theo turned around and looked at me. There was a faint smile on the corner of his lips.
Cindy looked up attoo, but her eyes were filled with hatred.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI looked at Cindy's red swollen eyes and the anger at the bottom of them. I chose to stay away from her and sat at the dinner table to eat my grapes.
"Theowy, why are you so obstinately persistent in going about things the wrong way? My father said so himself. As long as you agree with his conditions, the Louis and White families will be your strongest supporters when you move to Whaldorf City. This will bring the development of Grant Corporation to the next level. Wanda has nothing, and she's useless. She's only dragging you down. She's not worthy of you." Cindy said these words out loud. I knew she was doing it on purpose to lethear.
However, I had to admit that what Cindy said was reasonable. This society prioritized elite family backgrounds and power. It was true she could be a big help to Theo's career with her background now. 1 In contrast, not only was I spending his money but I was taking up all his tby having him keepcompany. Sure enough, I was useless.
The grapes that he bought this twere slightly sour. I only ate two and did not feel like having any more. I sat there and listened to the act.
"Cindy, I'm so disappointed in you. Am I the kind of person who would abandon my wife and child for my interests? Would I take advantage of you to obtain benefits? Do I look like a rat to you?"
"No, Theowy. You're an indomitable man in my heart. It's just that I can see you're working so hard and om really want to help you, butt couldn't do much back then. Now, I have the ability to. The first thought that cto my mind was to give you a hand in your career so that you don't have to burn the midnight oil." Cindy's voice sounded anxious. I had to admit that Cindy was doing what was best for Theo. She was willing to use her fortune on him. 1 "Enough. I'm not that kind of person." Theo raised his voice. I was able to sense the anger that he was suppressing within him. "I'll only have one wife in my whole life, and that person is Wanda Lane."
Cindy laughed. Her smile was kind of creepy. "But you're not in love with her, are you? There's no love between you, and then it's only because she's pregnant with your child, and it's just your sense of responsibility as a man. One day, you'll regret the decision you've made today." "I don't need others to judge my romance and marriage." Theo's voice turned cold. It was colder than how he used to talk toin the past.
"Cindy, I'm telling you one last time. I took care of you all these years only because I felt sorry for your family and mpromised your parents that I'd protect you. Now that you've found your biological parents and are living your life like a princess, it's tforto get out of your life and take care of my family." X
