“Wanda, can’t you talk nicely?” Theo spoke. His facial expression looked terrible. I turned to look at him and smiled. "President Grant, you’re right. How dare I not talk nicely? Otherwise, if President Grant is unhappy, I might lose my life with just one push.""You…" He looked at me. At last, he fell silent but still looked extremely unhappy. Cindy, who was standing beside, said, “Wanda, don’t blame Theowy. I’d like to apologize to you on behalf of him…” "I'm tired. Can you please get out of here!" I refused to hear another word from Cindy and drove them out. Then, I turned around, unwilling to even look at them. Cindy still wanted to talk, but she was dragged out of the ward by Theo.I felt depressed all of a sudden when I saw them leave. Despite having survived the fall and operation, I was sad.I stayed in the hospital for the next few days, living a life of isolation. No one knew that I was in the hospital.I watched the news every day, so I was still able to know wha

What I said hurt his feelings. His pupils shook, and his aura reduced in intensity. He seemed to be at a loss all of a sudden. Then, he leaned into me and spoke in a deep voice. "So, in your heart, I’m a wretch and a cold-blooded murderer?”I remained silent, which was an indirect admission. He took a step back, looking disappointed. He spoke faintly, “Wanda, when you said you love me, I didn’t expect it to mean this.”I replied calmly, "I've already said that I’ll take my love back and not bother you anymore.”“Great! You’ve got some galls!” After he spoke, he did not look at me anymore. He slammed the door hard and left.If it were before, I would be worried and frightened every time he left in anger. However, I was surprisingly calm now. I slowly stood up and started to pack my luggage again.Miss Woods brought the chicken soup upstairs. When she saw me leaving, she panicked and pulled my hand, refusing to let me go. "Madam, you're pregnant. It's dangerous for you to be outsi

Cecilia turned her head around, looked at me, and spoke in a serious tone. "So leave Theo. I can take care of both of you." I was stunned for a moment when she suddenly said that. I hugged her and said, "Why are you suddenly talking about this? But I’ll definitely divorce him and leave. It’s just a matter of time.”She broke free from the hug, patted my shoulder, and smiled. "Alright, I just suddenly feel a little emotional. I’ll wait for you no matter how long it takes. And I've found a place in Rosella City. The living expenses are lower there. When the time comes, we'll buy a villa and our lives will be better than they are here.”Looking at Cecilia’s tearful eyes while she pretended that she was having it easy, I suddenly realized that she had changed. She had changed into someone who had a lot on her mind and who was keeping things in her heart.Maybe it was because of Xander. I did not think much of it either. I held her hand and said, “Don’t worry. Just leave it to me. We s

Fine. There was only one outcome if I persisted—another fight.I had no intention of fighting with him. Hence, I dried my hair and went to sleep. After ten minutes, Theo came out, lifted the covers, and lay down beside me. It had been a long time since I was so close to him. I was not used to it, so I squirmed my body to the side."You'll fall if you keep inching to the side." With his eyes closed, he scooped me and the blanket into his arms. He said in a deep voice, "We're husband and wife. Are you going to avoid me forever?" While his voice was calm, it sounded a little helpless.“I’m not avoiding you. You’re still wet and it’s uncomfortable,” I said. I did not want to talk about this with him. He let go of me and got out of bed. He picked up the towel and seriously wiped himself again. Then, he got back onto the bed and said, "Touch me. I’m dry now."“You are.” I turned over, lay on my side, and closed my eyes.He reached his hands out from behind and took me in his arm

She lifted her head like a proud peacock, looking like she owned the whole world. I could not help but find it ridiculous. "Yes. You're worthy, especially worthy. You'd better keep your Theowy company. I'm going back." In the past, I might have felt inferior and upset, but it did not really matter anymore. I was too lazy to argue with her. I moved aside and was ready to head out. Even though I did not want to go looking for trouble, it did not mean others would leave me alone. When I took a step forward, Cindy stretched her foot out and tripped me. I staggered and failed to regain my footing, causing me to tumble forward. There was nothing around me that I could grab for support. I instinctively reached out to hold onto Cindy, and we both went crashing to the floor. As she was in front of me, she fell in a sitting position with her bottom on the floor. Then, there was a thud. Her head hit the door frame. “Ouch!” Cindy cried out in pain. Her voice was loud, alerting Theo
