Chapter 451
Theo glared at him fiercely and quickly draggedout of Matthew's room.
He walked too fast forto keep up, so | frowned and said, "Slow down. | can't keep up with you."
Not only did Theo ignorebut he quickened his steps.
"Where are you taking me?" | asked helplessly.
Theo replied in a cold voice, "Your room."
| was speechless and rolled my eyes. "Well, you've walked past it."
Theo stopped in his tracks and turned around to look a tangrily. "Wanda, do you like Matthew?"
"I guess that’s a yes." Theo took a deep breath." Otherwise, why didn't you panic when | caught the two of you
cuddling on the sbed?"
"It'd be more of a problem if | had panicked." | looked a t him helplessly. "Doesn'tnot panicking prove that

"Stop trying to weasel your way out of this!" Theo was not listening toat all. "How can you say that
there's nothing going on between the two of you when
you guys were in bed together?"
Like the saying not to wash your dirty laundry in public, I did not feel like standing in the hallway to argue with
him, so I pulled him into my room.
The moment the door closed, Theo pressedagainst it. | was very uncomfortable and squirmed. "How are w e
supposed to talk if you do this?"
"I don't see why not." Theo's voice was cold.
| knew he was very angry right now, so | helplessly sighed and let him do whatever he wanted. "Theo, | swear
that I'm innocent and nothing happened between us. It was also an accident that we ended up cuddling on the
sbed. He hasn't been able to sleep well in the past few days, so he wantedto accompany him for a
while. When | was sitting down, | got tired and dozed off on the bed. | was a distance away from him when |
dozed off but for sreason, we ended up cuddling."
When | saw that Theo still looked gloomy, | continued, "I know | shouldn't have agreed to accompany him, but |
couldn't refuse him. When | lost my baby and wanted to die, he was the one who stayed by my side. He helped
needs me, | turn a blind eye. Otherwise, wouldn't | just be a person without a conscience?" 1
Theo looked atquietly after | said that. | furrowed my brows in annoyance. "Theo, can you please think o f it
from my point of view? Otherwise, it’s very painful
fortoo."
| could not ignore Matthew but because Theo kept arguing withabout it, | would eventually fall into a
dilemma.
Theo closed his eyes tightly and when he opened them again, the coldness in his eyes was gone. "I can
understand, but this can only go on for a little while more. When he’s back to his normal self, you'll have to draw
a clear line with him, okay?"
After a pause, he continued, "This is the biggest compromise | can make."
He looked even more tired than Matthew. The shirt he was wearing underneath his jacket was not ironed
properly and his necktie was askew. | did not notice these things just now because | was so focused on trying to

The issue with the hospitals must have kept him busy as hell, but it was a good thing that he could still suppress
his temper without lashing out at me.
"I'll be mindful of how | am when I'm with him." | took the initiative to kiss him on the lips. "Don't worry, I'll never
do anything to upset you."
Theo's face softened and a smile appeared. "Good girl."
He wrapped his arms around me. "Did you miss me?"
I nodded.
In the past few days, he only chafter | was asleep and he would leave the house before | woke up i n
the morning. We had barely spoken recently, and it felt like we had not met in a few days. Of course, | missed
him.
"Lettake you out to have something delicious tonight. What do you feel like eating?" Theo asked with a
smile.
I knew he would not want to stay hfor dinner, so after thinking about it, | said, "I feel like having surf and
turf."
