Chapter 1700
"So what do you think I'm up to?" | cast a quiet glance at Cindy before turning my eyes back to Zedd.
As if stunned by my question, Zedd froze for a moment.
| laughed lightly. It was as | had expected. As | reached for the food, | deliberately knocked over the cup in
Cindy's hand. She was splashed all over by the water. "Oops, sorry. I'm really careless. Why don't you go to the
bathroom and get yourself cleaned up?"
Zedd across the table frowned and looked worried. "I don't think it's hot water. Are you okay?"
Looking at his anxious look, he obviously cared about her. However, he still kept
denying his feelings. | could not help but feel that Zedd and Cindy's current situation was very similar to mine
and Theo's.
"No need for your pretentious care, Mr.
Nichols." Cindy glared at him, then turned to me. "I'm going to the bathroom."

She said, then she got up and left.
As soon as Cindy left, Zedd's harsh eyes swept toward me. "Wanda, you did that on purpose! What exactly are
you trying to do to Cindy?!" Every tCindy got hurt, Zedd would accusewithout distinguishing between
good and bad.
| envied Cindy a little bit for enjoying such indiscriminate favoritism from him like this.
Theo was as affectionate as he was, but in sways, he was not as good as Zedd.
| sighed slightly in my heart, but my face was unperturbed. | spoke calmly, "Mr. Nichols, you're making too many
accusations against me. What can | even do? I'd like to ask you what exactly you're trying to do."
"What do you mean?" Zedd looked at me, and his tone gradually weakened.
| had caught him off guard and was fiddling with the straw in front of me. My tone was carefree as | spoke, "Over
the years, your interest in.

Cindy has been obvious to everyone. Since that's the case, why are you stiffentangled with Nadia?"
Seemingly dissatisfied with the question | raised, Zedd snorted coldly from his nose." None of your business." "In
fact, even if you don't say it, | can probably guess a few things. Cindy used to long for Theo. Even if she's no
longer pestering Theo now, you're still harboring doubts. You're worried that Cindy is not really fond of you but
dependent on you, so you want to use Nadia to test her feelings for you, right?"
I had a basis for this speculation, so | said it with extra confidence.
After hearing my words, Zedd's originally cold and stern eyes slowly dimmed.
He did not say anything, and | took it that he had acquiesced.
"It's okay to try. But, Mr. Nichols, | still have to remind you not to mess it up. Nadia is a greedy one," | reminded
him with good intentions.
Nadia was the niece of President Sherman. However, she was greedy and wanted to climb the ladder of power.
Hence, she was even pregnant with Mason's child before this.
Such a woman was terrifying.

| shrugged my shoulders and spread my hands. "I'm just being honest. You can listen toif you like. If it wasn't
for the fact that you're Theo's good friend, | wouldn't want to meddle."
As soon as the words left my mouth,
| saw Cindy cout of the
bathroom. Seeing the different aura between us, she wrinkled her eyebrows. "What did you guys talk about
when | wasn't here?" "Nothing, we were just talking about the
company. Let's eat." | gave a random excuse.
Cindy and Zedd did not care to talk much about it and did not say anything more.
"Can my woman eat this meal without me?"

Not far away, a man's familiar voice drifted in. | looked up immediately. It was Theo.
