Chapter 1261

"Can't you help me out?” Theo's deep voice rang out.

Theo was my husband. We had lived together for so many years, and we would continue to do so for a long time in the future. He would fall sick, and

I would too. We had to look after each other regardless of how awkward things might get

After preparing myself mentally, I exhaled lightly and walked over. Then, I headed into the washroom with him.

Theo stood still as I bit my lip and reached out to unbuckle his belt. After that, I pulled down the zipper of his pants.

Just when I was about to proceed with the next step, he suddenly grabbed my wrist and spoke to me in a husky voice, "Alright, let me do it myself.”

I let out a sigh of relief and left the washroom at once.

Theo had thrown his phone onto the bed as soon as he walked into the room. It was vibrating non-stop right now.

I walked over and looked at who was calling. The call was from Cindy. She must have known about Theo's injury and was calling him to express her

concern.

I did not pick up the call, but Cindy did not give up either.

Theo was still in the washroom. I felt rather annoyed, so I shouted out, “Theo, you have a call."

"Pick it up for me.”

I did not feel like picking it up, but Cindy would continue calling if I did not pick up the call. It was way too annoying

Therefore, I finally chose to pick up the call.

Before I could say anything, Cindy’s

cries rang out.gn the other end of

the call." Theowy, has your arm

gotten better? I'm sorry, I really didit

do it on. furpose. I didn't want to

throw-@ tantrum. I didn't want you to

get in: fured either. I'd rather that

was-the one who got inj juredinstead

ofyou. I guarantee that this is the

last time. I'll always listen to you in

he future. I won't do anything rash

anymore."

Tr

Did that mean that Theo was injured because of her?

I pursed my lips. I did not intend to say anything.

Cindy started crying harder on the other end of the call. “Theowy, why aren't you saying anything? Are you still angry at me? I admit my mistake. I

won't do that anymore in the future.

"You just need to stay farther away from him in the future. That way, he won't be angry at you anymore.” I said in an even tone. My words were not

friendly, and there were hints of rage in the tone of my voice as well.

Cindy did not expect to hear my voice. She was stunned for a long time before she spoke up, "Wanda Lane, who allowed you to pick up Theowy's

phone? Are you uneducated? How can you just pick up someone else's phone like that?”

Her voice changed way too quickly. She did not sound like she had been crying at all.

I sneered and teased her, "Why did

you immediately stop crying as soon

as you knew that I'm not Theo?

Aren't you afraid that Theo is right

next to me? He might have heard

everything that you just said. It a

seems: ike your acting skills haven't

improved throughout the years.

Afso, Theo was the one who asked

me to pick up the phone. We're

husband and wife. I’m not an

outsider. Of course, I can pick up his

calls as I wish."

Cindy was angered by my words. She spoke up in a shrill tone, "Wanda Lane, don’t be so conceited. Even if I can’t marry Theo and be his wife, I can

still appear in his life. He'll get used to my presence. If you don’t believe in me, let's just see how it goes.

“He could've avoided getting hurt

today, but he protected me

instinctively 4 e was willing to get

injured inwny place. He might love ~

you, but im someone that can’t be”

cut offfrom his life. He can’t resist

looking after me. He's a eadyused

toxmay presence. This wi remain the

same for a long time. Theréfore, I'll

appear in your lives in the future as

well. There'll always be a gap

between both of you."

I really found her extremely funny right now.

I laughed out loud and said, "Cindy Reed, aren't you tired of doing this?"

"Why would I be tired?" Cindy spoke in a seething tone. "I feel happy as long as I can make you feel uncomfortable. I'll never feel tired.

“Really?” I sneered and said, “In that case, I wish that you can stay persistent for your entire life. Don't ever give up.”
