Chapter: 535
If everything went according to plan, when she arrived at Theodore’s compan¥? people would assume
she was his girlfriend.
She delighted in the idea of the misconception. Even though she wasn’t his girlfriend at the moment,
she believed that one day, she would be. ©
To Helen, she was the only woman worthy of standing by Theodore’s side. No one else deserved him.
Despite the chaos and turmoil inside her, Helen maintained a pure smile on her face and spoke softly
to the front desk secretary.
“How much longer until Theodore’s meeting is over?” she asked.
“The meeting will be over in five minutes, Miss Clarke. Why don’t you grab a cup of coffee while you
wait? Mr. Anderson will be out soon,” the secretary suggested with a warm smile. She couldn’t help

Although Helen was gentle and had an angelic smile, she seemed homely. Maybe men just preferred
this type of woman?
The five minutes elapsed quickly. The secretary escorted Helen to the elevator and pressed the button
for her. Helen followed at a relaxed pace.
Upon arriving on the top floor, Theodore had just retumed to his office and was engrossed in signing a
contract. Two senior executives stood beside him.
A knock on the door interrupted them. They turned to see Helen. Theodore’s expression remained
unchanged as he quickly signed the document and asked the executives to leave.
The two executives, who had heard rumors about Theodore in the past, couldn’t help but take a few
extra glances at Helen. They let out a silent sigh. How could a cold person like Theodore fall for such a

and Helen alone in the office.
“Theodore, I got you a tie. Do you like it?” Helen pulled out a gift box from her purse and handed it to
him.
Without even a glance, Theodore took the gift and set it aside. He looked at Helen sternly and icily.
“Why didn’t you tell me that you were coming to the company?
You have an operation tomorrow afternoon, and yet you still went out?”
Earlier that day, he received a call from the hospital, informing him that Helen had snuck out. However,

Helen’s eyes welled up with tears upon sensing Theodore’s cold tone. “Theodore, I’m scared about the
operation. I’m so nervous. You haven’t visited me for a long time, and I’m afraid that I won’t make it off
the operating table. That’s why I came here to see you before the operation.” ©
Perhaps it was Helen’s fear that softened Theodore’s heart. He spoke slowly. “The success rate of the
operation is high. I have arranged the best doctors for you.
Nothing will go wrong.”
He rubbed his nose wearily and then gave in, “Fine. I promise to visit you in the hospital before your
operation tomorrow.”
