Theodore He felt guilty as he reached home without Kim. But he didn’t want to stay there anymore. He poured himself a large whiskey and retired to the study. The day was beautiful, and yet there was a cloud of gloom over his head. His mind wasn’t working and he wanted to close his eyes and lie down with his head in Natalie’s lap. That’s the name. Natalie. She is the reason why his life was turning upside down, and after a long while, Theo was thinking that he doesn’t care. He didn’t. These days, he had thrown all caution and care to the wind and wanted to do what his heart told him, and that was to grab Natalie and kiss the hell out of her, squeeze her in his arms, press his head against her bosom, and feel the serenity.

This marriage was going to put him on the same pedestal as Jonathan, but now, he was not sure what he wanted to do. Theodore knew nothing about cooking.

So, when he was putting the dish on table and Kim walked in on that scene, witnessing him in an apron must have given her a wrong idea. “Did you cook for me?” She was smiling and Theo was feeling like a jerk for what was about to come. “Nope. You know I can’t do that. I just heated up the food.” “Oh, where is Olga?” “I gave her night off.” Theo removed
