Chapter 433
The Woman From Hell
I nodded with a smile. "Thank you."
Miss Woods was quick and served us the hot dishes in no time. When I was eating with Theo, his
phone that was on the table rang.
When we came down, he was afraid that Mason or Zedd would look for him, so he brought his
phone along with him. Yet, the person calling him now was not either one of them.
Seeing Cindyâs name on the screen, I frowned without saying anything.
Theo did not intend to answer the call and changed his phone to silent mode. He just let her
continue calling.
Even without the noise, the phone of his screen was constantly illuminated and I would see her
name as soon as I raised my head. I felt slightly irritated. "You can either switch off your phone or
pick up the call."
Theo frowned. "Just let it be. She wonât continue calling if I donât pick up."
I slammed the chopsticks on the dining table. "Iâm annoyed by the constant calls. Either you pick it
up or switch off your phone. Otherwise, get out of my sight."
When he saw how mad I was, Theo could not
understand my outburst. "I didn't ask her to call me, did I? What can I do about it? Do you need to
be so mad at me?"
I glared at him. "Yes!"
After yelling, I continued, "If I were you, I would have blocked her number. You're just giving her
chances to pester you, no?"
"Youâre just blaming the victim now.â Theo's expression turned cold.
I laughed in anger. "Youâre not the victim. You're guilty.â
Blue veins could be seen on Theo's forehead. He probably did not know what to say to me
anymore. He answered the call and said, "Talk or Iâm going to hang up."
"Theowy..." Cindy was about to cry. "Please don't be mad. I don't want to disturb you from your
sleep either. But I'm alone at home and I had a nightmare just now, so I'm terrified. Can you come
over and accompany me? If you can't, maybe you can just talk t o me through the phone.â
"How old are you that youâre unable to sleep alone at home?" Theo frowned. "Besides, why are you
looking for me? Iâm not your nanny or caretaker."
"Theowy, you-"
"Also, don't call me in the middle of the night anymore," Theo interrupted Cindy's words ruthlessly."
You've woken up my wife and she's unhappy. If she's unhappy, I'll be unhappy too. You're a grown-
up. Please don't trouble people for no good reason.â
Once he was done talking, he hung up and asked me," Are you satisfied?"
I did not want to entertain him and walked out of the dining room.
"Youâre not going to eat anymore?â Theo caught up to me.
I frowned. "I'm full-full of anger.â
Lying on the bed, Theo hugged me from the back." Donât be mad, okay?"
I was slightly annoyed. "Just sleep. I'm sleepy.â
"But I canât sleep now. Why don't we do something?"
I grabbed his hand and glared at him angrily. "I said that I'm sleepy. Theo Grant, can you be less
shameless?"
Theo raised his eyebrows. "And why should I do that?"
