Chapter: 373
Tyler shook his head. “No, we only talked about the script. Francis was acting odd.
He kept praising me, and it made me feel uncomfortable.”
Ariana breathed a sigh of relief. “That’s good. At least they didn’t try to manipulate you.”
Tyler inquired, “Ariana, do you think Mr. Theodore Anderson had a hand in this? I can’t imagine Francis
changing his attitude so dramatically otherwise.”
“I suppose so,” Ariana answered vaguely. She scratched her ear, feeling a bit embarrassed. “I didn’t
actually mean to ask him for help.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Why not?” Tyler asked, still puzzled. “You’re his wife. It’s natural for him to help you. Besides, Mr.
Anderson is willing to stand up for you because he cares about you.”
He paused and smiled warmly. “I was worried that you’d be treated unfairly, but now I’m not. It’s clear
that Mr. Anderson adores you and truly cares for you.”
Ariana’s thoughts began to drift as she listened to Tyler. Did Theodore really care for her? ©
After sharing information, Ariana instructed Tyler to return to his room to rest, while she slipped back to
the top-floor presidential suite when no one was looking.
Upon entering the room, she was met with Theodore’s mocking grin.
Ariana felt a twinge of guilt. Her kick to the wheelchair in the elevator might have been a bit excessive.
She quietly closed the door and approached Theodore. Glancing at his legs, she inquired, “Are you
okay?” jo.” Theodore stared at her without emotion.
“Sorry, I didn’t intend to.” Ariana fluttered her eyelashes at him, appearing quite forlorn. “Please forgive
me this once. I won’t do it again.”
Whenever she made a mistake, she acted sad, but Theodore would always forgive her.
His heart softened, but he maintained a frosty facade. “Is being seen with me so shameful? And that
was quite a forceful kick.”
Hearing his accusatory tone, she realized he was genuinely upset. Flustered, she explained, “I
panicked when I saw the crew members in the restaurant, and we had agreed to keep our relationship
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsecret. You were adamant back then. You even said that if anyone found out, I’d be banished from the
Anderson family.”
“When did I say you’d be expelled from the Anderson family for that?” Theodore cast a sidelong glance
at her and spoke in a cold voice. “Don’t make up stories based on what I said.”
Admittedly, Ariana had added the last part herself. She huffed, “But I’m heeding your advice. Is it wrong
to keep our relationship under wraps?”
Theodore was at a loss for words. Annoyed, he ran a hand through his short hair and furrowed his
brow. After a moment, he said, “If you want to go public now, it’s fine.”
Theodore was now eager to declare their relationship, so no one would dare covet his wife.
He was aware that Tyler’s gaze on Ariana wasn’t that of a brother toward a sister.
Ariana was confused by Theodore’s words. Was he suggesting that they should tell everyone they
were married? Did it imply that he genuinely cared for her?
