“It’s alright. When did I ever say you did something wrong?”
His relaxed and pleasant tone surprised Ariana. She raised her head to meet his smiling gaze.
“Are you not mad at me?” she asked, appearing to be surprised.
She looked cute with that surprised expression. Theodore resisted the urge to pinch her cheek and
feigned a cough. “It’s not a big deal. I’m not angry. If we can’t keep it a secret in the future, we’ll just let
them know.”
Cocking her head, she wondered what he meant by that, but did not dwell on it too much. Another
question weighed on her mind, demanding an answer. “So, why are you in my room? I’m going to
complain about this hotel for letting others in.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter a brief silence, Theodore took out a familiar marriage certificate from his suit pocket.
“I showed the marriage certificate to the receptionist, and she let me in.” He didn’t seem to think that
there was anything wrong with what he had done or said. In fact, he believed he was in the right.
“Why do you carry it with you?” Ariana was both embarrassed and surprised by what he did that she
ended up blushing. Back then, Theodore had been in a vegetative state and comatose. The ceremony
was rushed, and she hadn’t paid much attention to the wedding photo on the marriage certificate. She
looked silly and ugly in the picture! Besides, Theodore’s head portrait was added in from one of his
other photos, making the wedding photo appear quite peculiar.
When she first received the marriage certificate, Ariana couldn’t bring herself to look at the picture and
later misplaced it. But now, she was surprised to find that he kept it in his pocket.
“Why do you have the marriage certificate?” Ariana asked as she reached out to snatch it from
Theodore.
Theodore quickly switched his hand and leaned back slightly, preventing her from taking it away.
“Horace found it somewhere in the closet when he helped me pack my things. He handed it to me
earlier today.”
Ariana gave up trying to grab the certificate after her failed attempt. “Did you open it?” she asked
nervously.
She knew it was a silly question. How would he not open it when he received it?
However, she was still hopeful that Theodore was lazy and that there was still a chance he had not
opened it.
She looked ugly in the wedding picture. She didn’t want him laughing at her when he saw it. ©
He looked unappealing in the picture too. His face was not only distorted but also a little blurry.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTheodore chuckled. “No, but the receptionist checked it out. It’s weird that I haven’t seen what my
marriage certificate looks like.”
He brushed his fingers across the letters of the cover and pretended to open it.
“Don’t open it. It’s not worth looking at,” Ariana cried as her will to fight was ignited again. She pounced
on him and tried to grab the certificate. Damn it! How could Theodore be more agile when he was in a
wheelchair?
She was embarrassed and annoyed. She didn’t want him to see their unsightly photograph, so she was
focused on snatching it back. However, she tripped over the wheel of the wheelchair and lost her
balance.
Theodore instinctively pulled her into his arms when he saw she was about to fall.
‘Ariana was petite and fitted nicely in Theodore’s arms. His chest was like a giant wall in front of her.
She thought that he could tower over her if he bent down.
