Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 132 “I'm sorry. | shouldn't have brought someone else with me.” Thomas said awkwardly.

Theresa glanced at him and smiled meaningfully. “Well, it doesn’t matter. | don’t mind.” She made an inviting gesture.

Then, Thomas sat down with Monica.

As soon as they sat down, Monica reached out and took Thomas's arm.

Before Theresa could react, she said sweetly, “Miss Austin, our relationship is too good. We usually pay no attention to our distance. | believe you will understand it.” After that, she whispered in Thomas ear, “I'm here to help you test her to see if she's really gentle and quiet.” She was rarely so close to Thomas.

Although Thomas felt that it was wrong to do so, he couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster.

Theresa looked at them with great interest. There was no emotion in her heart, and she even wanted to smile.

In her opinion, Thomas must be gay.

She wondered if Thomas was putting on a show with that girl today.

Theresa smiled gently and became even more elegant and virtuous. “Of course, it doesn’t matter. Everyone has a few good friends.” Monica was surprised.

For a moment, she was not sure if Theresa simply didn't care about it or if she was pretending.

Monica leaned on Thomas" shoulder shyly and sweetly and said, “Miss Austin, it's great that you think so.” Theresa was more sure that they were doing so on purpose.

Chapter 132 Her smile deepened. “Don’t worry, | won't mind.” The two women talked compactly. Thomas couldn't cut in even if he wanted to.

Monica looked at the book in front of Theresa and suddenly asked, “Is this classical literature?” Theresa pushed up her glasses and looked extremely quiet. “Yes, it is an anthology of the bard of Avon. | casually picked it up from the bookshelf.” “The bard of Avon?” Monica frowned and said, “I've never heard of this person before. | don’t think he’s famous. Miss Austin, | advise you not to waste your time reading books written by unknown writers.” As soon as she finished speaking, Theresa and Thomas looked at her in shock.

“What's wrong?” Monica was confused, but then she suddenly realized it. “Ah, | see. People like you must be proud of reading little—known books, aren't you? | shouldn't have said that.” Theresa smiled and didn't say anything.

Monica thought that Theresa had admitted defeat and was about to continue.

But Thomas was afraid that she would make a fool of herself again, so he couldn't help but softly say, “Monica, the bard of Avon refers to Shakespeare.” The smile on Monica's face froze.

Although Monica was from a rich family and was provided with a good learning environment since she was a child, she was born with no interest in studying. Her family doted on her and didn't interfere with her studies after they witnessed her lack of interest.

Monica didn’t pursue knowledge anymore after she got a master’s degree in college. In terms of academic knowledge, she was actually a good—for—nothing.

But no matter how stupid she was, she had still heard of Shakespeare.

How come she said that Shakespeare's anthology was little known and that he was unknown? Monica suddenly felt like she was about to explode with shame.

She hated Theresa in her heart.

Chapter 132 She thought Theresa, who looked rustic, was very scheming.

Mentioning Shakespeare was fine, but why did she have to say the bard of Avon? Wasn't she deliberately embarrassing her? “No, | can’t let Thomas be with such a woman,” she thought.

Monica immediately felt her fighting spirit soar.

“Itisn’t that | don’t agree with Thomas looking for a girlfriend, but | don’t think Theresa was worthy of him.” She justified herself in her heart.

“Sorry, | didn’t react in time.” Monica tried her best to smile.

“There's nothing to be sorry about.” Theresa shook her head. “Everyone has their own blind spots of knowledge.” Theresa really thought so.

However, Monica felt that Theresa was mocking her.

For a moment, her face darkened.

Monica took a deep breath and suddenly said in a sweet voice, “Hey, Theresa, you've been reading such books all day long.

Could it be that you're a literary youth? | heard that literary youths like to speak of words and sentences unintelligible to others, thus to gain a sense of knowledgeableness. Do you really understand these classical literature books or are you just acting?” What Monica said was rude, but her eyes looked very innocent as if she was really curious.

Theresa smiled and didn't say anything.

Monica refused to let her go. She went on to say, “Miss Austin, | advise you to put more energy into your real life. Don’t put on air all day long. The books can't get you a Ph.D. degree, can they?” As she spoke, she burst into laughter.

Theresa smiled as well.

Thomas couldn't smile.

He was really embarrassed for Monica.

“Miss Austin, what are you smiling at? Do you think what | said is wrong?” Monica asked.

Thomas had no choice but to pull her again and whispered, “Theresa is a graduate student in classical literature at Anaville University. She's indeed about to apply for a Ph.D.” Monica's smile froze again.

She looked at Theresa in disbelief. She couldn't believe this bumpkin was a graduate student at Anaville University.

“Miss Austin, I'm sorry,” Thomas said apologetically.

Theresa raised her eyebrows and said, “It's nothing. There are indeed a lot of people who just think reading is a way to show off.

Ms. Lynn is not completely wrong.” Monica glared at Theresa. She didn't think Theresa was trying to help her out at all.

She only felt that Theresa was too scheming.

In her view, Theresa had skillfully made a fool of her twice, and she was just pretending to be kind now.

Theresa was terrifyingly scheming to her! However, given she had been defeated in succession today, she thought it was not appropriate for her to continue to pester Theresa.

She covered her stomach with her hands and exclaimed, “Thomas, my stomach hurts.” “What's wrong?” Thomas was a little nervous.

“It just suddenly hurts.” Monica looked at him pitifully. “You know, I've had stomach problems since | was a child.” Thomas was about to take Monica to the hospital, but he hesitated after glancing at Theresa.

Although he didn’t want to develop a relationship with Theresa.

It was too rude to leave a girl alone like this.

Chapter 132

However, Theresa didn't care. She chuckled and said, ‘It's okay .Take this lady to the hospital first. I'll have some coffee.”

“I'm really sorry for what happened today. I'll pay the bill.” Thomas said apologetically.This time ,Theresa didn't refuse and allowed him to pay the bill.

Thomas hurriedly took Monica to the hospital. The physician examinegier but couldn't find any problem. He just pFeddribed some medicine to treat Monica's stomachache. Thomas took Monica back to the hotel and served her for a long time before Monica said that she felt much better.

“Thomas.” Monica looked at him pitifully. “You treat me the best. No one has ever taken care of me like this except my parents.” Thomas didn’t respond.

What was the point of being good to her? She didn't like him, and this wouldn't change.

“Thomas, can you take care of me like this forever?” Monica put on an even more pitiful look.

Thomas heart softened and he said gently, “I will take care of you until | find a girlfriend or you find a boyfriend.” Monica was not satisfied. She frowned and asked, “What if you have a girlfriend?” “Then | have to consider my girlfriend's feelings.” Thomas calmly replied.

Monica's expression immediately became unhappy.

After a long time, she said, “What you said makes sense.” However, there was a flash of gloom in the depths of her eyes.

“Girlfriend? Theresa? Don't ever think of it!” She thought.
