Chapter 1030
Theo looked atwith a much deeper gaze after Dazaray finished talking.
Later, he glanced at Keith, but I did not know what he meant by that.
| soon knew what it meant, though. Keith took his seat beside Dazaray, said something to her, and they both
took out their phones. | figured they were exchanging contact details.
| pursed my lips and felt a little puzzled. However, | was not going to ask Theo anything.
Just as | was ready to leave, Theo wrapped his arm around my waist and | froze, looking unkindly at him. " What
are you doing?"
He raised his eyebrow and asked with a smile, "You didn't tellbecause you didn't wantto be worried?"
I replied coldly, "No, you think too much."

Theo chuckled a few times before moving his lips closer to my ear. He said with much certainty, "I don’t want
freedom, so you can't think about having it too. We've been married for so many years. Don't you think we
should be fair?"
He continued after a pause, "No matter how many
steps back you take, that’s how many steps forward I'll take to move closer to you."
There was a surge of warmth in my heart after hearing what he said. | did not want to show any emotions, so |
looked at the wine glass on the coffee table that was filled to the brim. | drank it all.
After drinking, | looked at Theo and said calmly, "If you want to keep torturing me, then you can continue t o do
so, Theo Grant."
He clutched at my waist tighter and asked in a slightly hoarse voice, “Must we be like this?"
| pursed my lips but did not answer his question.
The surroundings were too noisy. Under circumstances like these, | would only grow more and more irritated and
put myself in a bad mood. Hence, | unknowingly drank a lot of wine.
Dazaray made several attempts to speak to Theo but was stopped by Keith every twith a new topic of
conversation. She could not help but get a little angry. She got up and looked at me, saying, "We should go back
now, Wanda. Shannon and the girls will start to worry."
| had wanted to leave a long tago and was eager to go now that she said that.
Just as | was about to get up, Theo pressed my shoulder and looked at Keith, saying, "Send Ms. Dazaray back."
Dazaray’s countenance changed. "Mr. Grant, | was the one who brought Wanda here. | can’t leave her here
alone."
Theo frowned. "Don't worry, I'll take her back later."
"| don't think that’s appropriate." Dazaray’s expression was already terribly sullen. "She's a married woman. Her
husband will be worried if she goes hlate. Please don't make things difficult for me, Mr. Grant."

As soon as she said those words, the private room instantly fell silent. Everyone turned to look atwith odd
gazes.
Theo raised his eyebrows, then turned toand said with a smile, "Not bad. Good girl. Keep it up."
Seeing that Theo did not have much reaction and was smiling atinstead, Dazaray asked with her teeth
clenched, “You know that she's married, Mr. Grant?"
The man nodded, his voice low and strong. "Go home, Ms. Dazaray."
This had undoubtedly led to a misunderstanding.
Dazaray glanced coldly atand asked Theo with a smile, "Mr. Grant, looks like you like young married women
too, eh?"
She sounded like she was joking, yet her words had madetremendously uncomfortable.
Dazaray then looked atand said, "We should go, Wanda. We're best friends, aren't we? It'll be bad if Mr. «
Fredericks learn that you're with Mr. Grant, don't you think?"
