NovelEnglishChapter 147 I looked up at him and said indifferently, "So, are you going to carry this burden your entire life? Theo Grant, I can stop caring, but I refuse to let my child be forced to fight someone else for their dad." Theo's onyx eyes darkened, and he replied almost immediately, "I promise, this won't happen again." "You've already said the sline before. Do you know what a habit means?" Cindy was Theo's habit, and he had proven tand again that he could not ignore her.
My heart softened when I saw how conflicted he was. I did not force him anymore. I faintly said, "Take a nap. The sun's about to cup." He lay on his bed and asked in a deep voice, "I heard you cover to sign the consent form for my operation. Were you worried?" How should I reply? I was worried when I heard he got into an accident, but when I knew that he was not badly injured and he was with Cindy at the tof the accident, I was more upset and disheartened than I was worried. However, I did not want to tell him that. I got up, kept the food container, and said coldly, "I'll head back now. I need to work tomorrow." His face changed when he saw that I was unwilling to answer him. He said, "The hospital requires a family member to stay back tonight. Just make do with that bed over there." I wanted to call Cindy and ask her to csince she would be more than happy to, but I remembered that she should still be in the police station now. I agreed." Okay, I'll go to sleep now.
Just holler if you need anything." He was only being annoying tonight because of this. If I did not stay back, I did not know what other method he would cup with to be so torturously annoying.

Before he could say anything, his phone rang. He picked it up, and his eyes darkened. Alas, he answered it on speakerphone.
I was not sure when this habit of answering the phone on speakerphone started.
Once the call went through, Cindy's shrieks pierced through the phone. "Theowy, save me! Wanda Lane framedand sentto the police station. They require a family member to be present but I can't get through to my parents. I'm so scared..." She actually took so long to call him? Theo looked at me, confused. I shrugged and said nonchalantly, "She barged into my house without permission, so I called the police on her." He lowered his head into his hands and said into the phone, "It's late now. Just be there for a while. I'll let Zedd handle it first thing tomorrow morning." "Theowy, I'm scared, sob, sob..." Cindy continued to wail on the phone.
Theo did not say anything else and hung up the phone. He massaged his temples and sighed exasperatedly, "You could've just chased her out. Why did you make things so ugly?" "Ugly? I don't think so. Someone trespassed into the house, so I called the police. It's reasonable. If you were the one who gave your consent or permission, then let's talk. Payand I'll give you back the ownership of the house." "Wanda Lane!" His face was suddenly stern. "Don't forget your identity." "It's precisely because I haven't forgotten it. That's our house, I don't want anyone coming and going as they please. If you're unhappy because of this, I'll move out." I raised my voice as well.
I was uncertain if what I said played a big role, but his stern face suddenly softened as he smiled and looked at me. "Chere."
I understood what he wanted. Before he could kick up a fuss, get up m walked over, and climbed onto his bed to lay by his side. He chuckled. "If only you're always this obedient." He reached out his hands, wanting to hug me.

"I have bad form when I sleep. I don't want to press your our wounds." DM rejected him and inched closer to the edge. He did not insist. He coveredwith his blanket without a word.
After the tumultuous night, I was beyond exhausted and quickly fell asleep on the bed.
By the tI woke up again, it was already 9:30 in the morning.
I was in a daze, so I thought I was on my bed at hwhen twoke up. extended my limbs and was about to take a big stretch when... "Ah! Are you trying to murder your husband?!" A howl rang from beside me.
I blanked out, only to quickly realize that one of my arms was right on top of Theo's wound on his abdomen.
