Chapter 285
My words made Cindy extremely angry. She pointed a t me, her body trembling violently. She was unable to say a word for a very long time. "D-Don't be so pleased with yourself. You’ll soon end up crying!"
“Cindy!" Theo looked displeased and said in a deep voice, "Wait here. Keith will come over and bring you back."
After saying that, he did not spare her another glance and took my hand before walking forward.
"Theowy..." Behind us, Cindy's heart-piercing cry rang out.
"I don’t think it's appropriate for you to leave Cindy here all alone. Don’t you see how badly she’s crying?" I was being pulled by Theo, which made my footsteps a little rushed. I talked as we walked.
He stopped and sneered at me, saying, "Am I supposed to leave you behind and go back by myself then?"
It did seem... quite inappropriate. I was heavily pregnant, after all.
He continued to pull me forward, his grip a little tight. I t hurt my wrist greatly.
I was in pain and began babbling nonsense, "A flirtatious idiot like you deserves it. It's your fault that
you’ve ended up provoking a bunch of ladies. You break hearts wherever you go. Look what you've got yourself into. You’re stuck in an impossible situation, huh?!
"Ouch, it hurts! Can’t you be a little more gentle, Theo Grant? I didn't mean to ruin your fun today, but it's your fault for not going farther away when you're meeting up with another woman. Why did you meet her somewhere near the house? I may be at fault but you can’t use such underhanded means to retaliate against me.”
"Retaliate against you?" He laughed in anger. "Do you realize how sharp-tongued you’re getting, Wanda Lane? You're making things up, and your ability to cook up nonsense is getting better and better."
"Seeing is believing. I'm only speaking the truth. Refute me if I'm wrong!" I argued unforgivingly.
"You-” He roared in anger and glanced at my belly before eventually swallowing his words. He continued pulling me forward.
I refused to move and cried out, "My legs hurt, I can't walk anymore."
He stopped and stared at me with a dark profound gaze while frowning. "Do you want me to carry you?"
"Well, that's an option." I looked up with a look of reluctance on my face.
He smirked and glanced at my belly. Then, he picked me up princess-style.
After taking several steps forward, he began panting." You're too fat."
"More like your body is getting weak." I snapped back.
He raised his eyebrows, and his thin lips parted slightly. "You should know well whether my body is weak or not."
I had just shot myself in the foot, so I clammed up and shut my eyes sensibly. What I could not see, I would not get irritated over.
I was not that angry when I saw him with Cindy. However, as I was currently pregnant, my emotions were constantly on a rollercoaster ride. I had unknowingly turned into a shrew.
All of a sudden, I could hear Theo sneering from above my head.
I curiously opened my eyes and realized that we had already returned to the villa. In the distance, a familiar -looking Maybach was parked at the entrance.
Tyler?
I held my forehead. Was he not hospitalized in a hospital in Salt City? Why did he come here?!
He was clad in a black shirt and holding a large bouquet of flowers in his hand. From a distance, he looked tall and charming. Thankfully, we were not in a busy city center, or else the sight of a good- looking man holding flowers would certainly cause a sensation.
I patted Theo's arms gently, motioning to him to let m e down.
Theo glanced scornfully at Tyler. "Why does he do nothing all day long? It puzzles me how a man like him is able to become the chairman of a board? I think the Schumans will eventually be ruined in his hands."
I was a little speechless. When did he start becoming s o nosy?
"Didn't you say you’re tired, Theo? Put me down!" I muttered.
"What's wrong? You haven't seen him for a long time and want to go ahead to give him a warm hug?" He glared at Tyler, and I could detect a hint of envy in his voice.
I was speechless!
Seeing the vicious glow in his eyes, I recalled what had happened previously and immediately said," Theo, we’re not in Salt City. I don’t want to see my husband's name in the headlines of Whaldorf City's news tomorrow."
"Hmph!" Perhaps my words had made him content enough. He snorted and put me down. Looking at the roses in Tyler's hands, he asked, "You like vulgar and boring flowers like that?" Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
"No." I shook my head quickly and said, "But most women like them."
