"Wanda, who are you talking to?" Cecilia heard noises and asked.
"Someone cto check on the gas." After I said that, I raised my hands and pushed Theo out of the door before closing it.
He raised his brows, and I saw anger in his icy-cold expression. It was probably the first the was pushed out of the door.
"It's late. What's the matter?" I ignored his unhappiness and asked.
He stood in front ofwith his hands in his pockets, fixing his gaze on me. There was no expression on his face. It took him a long tto finally speak. "I ct o bring you home." I was depressed, but it was not the tto fight with each other. I lowered my voice and spoke softly," Didn't I tell you that I'll be staying here for a while? Don't worry, I'll take good care of the baby." "And I've told you, you can only stay at the villa until the baby is born. At least there's someone at hwho can take care of you." He would not budge.

He looked atand continued to say, "If you insist on staying here, I'll have to move in as well." He was saying these words in a serious tone. It was neither a threat nor a joke.
I was speechless.
I had no choice but to compromise. I looked at him and said, "Fine, I promise you that I'll go back tomorrow, alright? Letstay here for one night, okay?" He nodded his head gently.
I let out a sigh of relief and turned around. When I was about to enter the house, his voice cfrom behind." I'|| stay here and go back tomorrow as well." "Theo, you're doing it on purpose, right?" I was furious. I could not help but raise my voice, and the echo was loud.
"Yes. So you'd better cback withright now," he said firmly.
I never knew that he had such a shameless side to him. I took a long and deep breath. If I did not follow him back home, he would really spend the night here.
I took my phone out and texted Cecilia. Then, I flounced toward the elevator angrily.
He was following behind me. When we were in the elevator, he was looking at me. He looked relieved, and there was a glimmer of a smile in his eyes.
"Hmph." I turned my face away from him and did not look at him.
After getting in the car, I continued to ignore him. He let it slide and even attentively helpedfasten my seat belt.
It did not take long for us to reach the villa. Miss Woods cout to welcme back. She said anxiously, "You're finally back. I was so worried." "It's fine. I was at my friend's place." I felt a little guilty for coming hlate. I forgot to call Miss Woods to inform her.
When I entered the house, there were dishes on the table. I could not help but ask in confusion. "Haven't you eaten?" "I had my dinner. Young Master just cback home. When he heard that you weren't home, he didn't eat his dinner and went out to look for you. Letreheat the food. Take a seat first." After Miss Woods spoke, she went into the kitchen and got busy.
Theo entered the house after parking the car. The lights in the corridor were so dark just now that I did not manage to take a good look at him. Now, I realized that his face was pale and he looked exhausted.

There was a strange feeling rising in my heart. I said to him, "Miss Woods is heating your meal. Get ssleep after you're done eating. Don't upset your stomach."
He sat on the sofa with his brows furrowed. When he heard this, his hands paused in their movements' el apd he lifted his gaze to look at me. He immediately nodded his head. "Alright. Do you want to have stogether?" "No. I'll go upstairs first." I had too much to eat during the buffet dinner. I went back to my room to have a shower.
I would be staying on the third floor during this time. After I was done showering, Theo was standing in the room with a cold expression on his face.
I knew he was unhappy. I pretended not to see it and said, "I'll be sleeping here for a few days. You can sleep downstairs!" He gloomily looked atand said, "We're husband and wife. I'll sleep wherever you're sleeping." "The bed is too small for two people. Theo, can we take stapart for the sake of the baby, please?" I pleaded. I was afraid that he would do something to me.

Don't worry." After he finished saying that, he did not wait forto respond and dashed into the bathroom.
