Chapter 152

"Wanda Lane, what do you mean by that?!” Cindy was s o angry that her eyes had turned

bloodshot. However, she still had to maintain her sophisticated demeanor i n front of Theo, so she

did not dare rush up to me and slap me.

"I meant what I said. I really don't get it, why do you have to cling to Theo? Don't you still have

Doctor Lynch and Zedd Nichols by your side? Well, I guess Doctor Lynch won't like an arrogant,

spoiled, and unreasonable brat like you."

I looked at Zedd and continued, "As for President Nichols, he's loyal and faithful to you, only for you

to treat him as a bootlicker. You hand him your boot to b e licked when it's necessary and chuck him

away when he's not needed. Your act of keeping him as a backup while you go after a better man is

despicable."

I was mad, so I did not filter my words.

Zedd, who was at the side, heard my words and his expression changed. "Wanda Lane, watch what

you’re saying."

"What double standards you have, President Nichols. I have to watch what I say after a few

sentences, but Miss Reed is openly going against me and fighting me for my husband. Besides, I’m

speaking up for you out o

f goodwill. Are you really happy being the backup?"

"You..."

Zedd was about to say something else when Theo spoke up, "Zedd, bring Cindy back."

The two glared at me angrily before they resentfully left.

It was just the two of us in the ward now. He looked at me with a trace of amusement in his deep

eyes.

I did not understand what he meant, so I said coldly," Sorry I spoke without a filter and hurt your

beloved lover once again.”

He cocked his eyebrows. His initially relaxed jawline was clenched tightly as he sighed

exasperatedly." What do you feel like eating?"

"Air." I was in a foul mood, so I did not have the nicest tone.

"Great, I'll eat air with you tonight, then," he replied swiftly.

"Theo Grant, are you getting a kick out of torturing and annoying me the entire day? If you’re really

bored and need someone to talk to, Miss Reed would be eager to comply. Why can’t you just let me

go?"

As soon as I was done, the atmosphere changed drastically. Theo's face was initially pretty serene

but i t became piercingly cold, and chilly air emitted from his body. His eyes turned dangerously dark

as he glared at me in silence.

His gaze was so stern, and when it was paired with his menacing facial expression, I shuddered in

fear as it had been a while since I last saw him like this. I instinctively took a step back.

It was common for human beings to subconsciously want more than they could ask for. The change

in Theo recently was so huge I forgot what his initial attitude was like.

"Do you really hate spending time with me?" he asked, his tone dripping with ice.

"Not really.” I shrunk back shamelessly. I lowered my voice and said, "I'm in a bad mood and was

tired the entire day. I don’t have the energy nor strength now."

My attitude calmed the snowstorm on his face. He did not reply to me. After a long time, he reached

out and pulled me by his side while muttering, "Are you still angry because I got into an accident

when I was with Cindy?”

"A little, but not entirely," I did not hide anything as I answered him truthfully. I was already used to it

after all these years. I may be angry, but I would not hold a grudge.

"So you're in a bad mood because of the pregnancy?” H e was patient as he continued asking.

I rolled my eyes at him and did not answer. There were many things that had caused my mood to

be bad, and there were also psychological aspects involved.

Suddenly, Keith pushed open the door and appeared with a few huge bags in his hands. From the

logo of the bags, it looked like they were all takeaways from the 'Cauldron of Latymer', which was

quite far away from the hospital.

Keith arranged all the food on the table after taking them out and left after that.

Theo looked at me, and his lips gently parted. "Eat up. Didn't you say that you like the food from this

restaurant? They’re all your favorites."

I glanced at the food in front of me. About seven or eight of them were foods that I had previously

mentioned I liked.

I was hungry, so I did not wait anymore and grabbed the fork to dig in.

Theo did not move. He sat there quietly watching me.

I ignored him and continued enjoying my meal. After a long while, my cheeks were flushed red from

all his staring. I looked up at him and asked, "You’re not eating?"
