Chapter 303 I rested my arm on the sofa arm, and my hand gently fiddled with the pearls on my skirt. I said nonchalantly, "Miss Reed said that you were busy and didn't have tto take my call." Theo's expression sank again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Cindy saw that he was angry, her eyes turned red. "Theowy, I didn't mean to take your call. It was just that you weren't around then and I was worried that the call would be about an urgent matter regarding work. After I hesitated, I decided to answer it, but I didn't expect it would be Wanda. If I knew that it was Wanda, I wouldn't have said that." After hearing her words, I snickered. "You really know how to act. When the call connected, you called out m y nin a warm voice before I could even speak." Cindy did not bother paying any attention toand just kept looking at Theo with tears in her eyes." Theowy, I really didn't know-" "Enough." She did not expect Theo to interrupt her. " I'll have Keith send you back. You've been withhere long enough." "I don't want to go hyet." Cindy bit her lip. She was a little reluctant. "My dad toldto follow you around more and learn, so the longer I stay, the better." Theo pinched the bridge of his nose and looked a little impatient. "I'm very busy and don't have tto teach you anything. If you insist on staying, then I'll have to make you leave." After Theo said that, he took the blazer on the back of the sofa and tugged my arm to takeaway with him. Cindy blew up. "Theowy, why are you so reluctant to seenow?" "You can asswhatever you want." Theo was getting better at dealing with Cindy.
"I..." Cindy crossed her arms together. She looked so aggrieved as if she was going to cry the very next second. "Fine. I'm leaving now." When I saw her reluctantly leaving, I felt indifferent. Nothing was surging inside of me.
The office door closed and I sat back on the sofa. I looked indifferently at Theo. "The receptionist toldthat your wife comes to see you every day. She said your wife is very kind and caring toward you. I thought she was talking about me. I didn't realize she was actually talking about Miss Reed." "What are you talking about?" Theo's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"Don't you understand?" I reached out and held the corner of his shirt. He naturally lowered his body and letwrap my arms around his neck. "Miss Reed is pregnant and comes to see you every day. She cares for you daily, so doesn't she seem more like your wife than me?" After hearing what I said, Theo's face darkened. "You had to endure that downstairs?" After he said that, he stood up and walked to his desk. He picked up the landline as he dialed the internal line.

Understand?" After he hung up the phone, Theo turned around and asked with a smile, "Satisfied?" "Good enough." I expressed that I was fairly satisfied.
Theo sat down next toand squeezed my leg. "Do your legs hort from standing down there for so standing down t long?"
"It's alright." I grabbed the two insulated lunch boxes on the coffee table and opened them. "You haven't had your lunch, right? Here, have this while it's still hot."
When he saw that it was lasagne, Theo had a faint smile on his face and asked "Did you make this yourself?" I curled my lips. "As if." Theo nodded. "Make it fortomorrow, then." X
