Chapter 799 Theo's breathing was slightly heavy. He was suppressing his emotions.
I continued to speak like a puppet being manipulated. "When I left three years ago, I truly hated you and thought that I would stay away from you forever. I figured that I was destined to be alone for the rest of my life because I was already abandoned after I was born. Otherwise, the heavens would punish me." After a pause, I took a deep breath and continued, "But I realized that I often dreamed of you, and I often had flashbacks of the times we spent together. That's why I conceded when I saw you in Zenon. If I can't hate anyone, then I would have to bear the pain in silence. I would deserve it." Though if resentment and pain were accumulated in my heart for too long with nowhere to vent out, they would start to grow wildly. It would becimpossible to let go.

I would jolt awake every night, and my dreams would be full of you and our child's cries. I fell into endless regret. Keith advisedto move, but I didn't want to because if I moved, I wouldn't be able to feel your presence anymore.
"Wanda, I was struggling painfully as well." I looked up at him and saw that his gaze was unusually soft. He grabbed my hand and placed it on his chest. "You've always been the only one here. I was just too foolish to do all those things I thought were good for you, only to end up hurting you deeply." I breathed a long sigh and realized that I should not have allowed myself to drown in the quagmire of the past, so I said, "Theo, I think I need to think very carefully about this myself." If Theo had not swapped the DNA report in the first place, the child in my womb would not have died. Therefore, Theo was the one in the wrong.
However, the only reason why Theo swapped the DNA report was that he was worried that Grayson would get in trouble and implicate me. Therefore, he was not wrong when looking at things this way.
There were many things in this world where rights and wrongs were impossible to judge. When it cto family relationships, how should one decide who to hate? Humans did things out of love, but the result of that left everyone scarred. Who exactly was in the wrong, then? Back in the bedroom, Theo headed for the bathroom.
I called out to him, "Can we sleep separately tonight?" Theo fell silent for a very long tand turned around to leave the room without a word.
We were separated by a door. It was like our worlds were brought apart.

It started snowing late at night. I sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window to watch the snow all night. When the sun slowly rose from the east, my lips moved slightly. "So be it." With no end to the resentment and nowhere to vent it out, there was nothing I could do even though I felt tremendously helpless.
I guess I was considered to have figured sof it out, right? I let out a self-deprecating smile and returned to my bed, planning to sleep.
As soon as I lay down, Keith gavea call. I was a little confused. Why was he callingso early in the morning?
I picked up the phone and before I could say anything, Keith said in an in an anxious voice, "Mrs. Grant, Mr. Grant refuses to leave the Louises' residence. Can you cover and persuade him?" I froze. What was Theo doing in the Louises' residence? I cback to my senses and quickly asked, "What is he doing in the Louises' residence?"
As though it was inconvenient to tell me, he hesitated for a moment and replied, "Mr. Grant said he wanted to make amends amends with the Louises, but the gate of the Louises' residence is shut and they refuse to let him in. He has been standing outside for several hours and it's snowing now. I'm worried that he'll not be able to physically take it if this continues."
I felt an uncomfortable lump in my m throat, not knowing what to say, There would always bean Ο obstruction that made it impossible for one to continue dwelling in the painful memories of the past. I spoke in a slightly sour tone, "I'll go over there right now." It was snowing outside, and it was impossible to get a ride around here. Hence, I had no choice but to drive there myself.
