Chapter 469
The Woman From Hell
Cindy Reed or Petra White?
Probably not Cindy. He did not have it in him.
However, I did not care. I would seek revenge on my own. It did not matter if Theo did not do
anything.
"I've gotten used to the way she is." I shoved Theo's chest. "Let go of me. It's difficult for me to
breathe if you keep hugging me this tightly."
Theo let go of me obediently, but he continued sitting close to me. Our bodies were so close
together it looked like someone had stuck us together with glue.
I felt a headache creeping upon me. "Theo, donât you have anything to do? Look at the time. Don't
you need t o go to the office?"
"I thought I already told you? Iâm accompanying you to the hospital today," Theo said as he smiled
gently. " Nothing is more important than you are."
U H
Theo was getting better at saying such sweet sentiments, and I had no idea if I should be touched
or afraid. His character had changed completely. Would that affect how his brain worked? 1 "Let's
go down and eat,â he said as he dragged me up
from the couch. "Weâll go to the hospital when we finish eating.â
I furrowed my eyebrows. "I don't want to go.â
Theo pretended not to hear what I said as he said to himself, "This time, we must let the doctor take
a thorough check-up. We'll undergo whatever treatment he recommends, and we must cooperate
with him."
You could not wake up someone pretending to be asleep. I heaved a deep sigh and bit down on
what I had to say. After all, he would not be able to do anything to me if I refused to go to the
hospital after w e ate. Why should I waste my breath now?
When I went downstairs, I saw Quinn and Cindy standing in the living room and talking. I felt my
breath catch in my chest. Although it was a good thing that these two people were right under my
nose, it still disgusted me.
"I was just about to ask Miss Woods to go upstairs and get you guys.â Quinn came forth
enthusiastically and said, "Letâs go have breakfast in the dining room.
Weâve been waiting for you forever.â
She did not seem to mind that both Theo and I had frosty expressions on our faces. She seemed to
be in a great mood as she walked into the dining room and sat down in one of the chairs.
She prepared a bowl of oatmeal and placed it in front o f Theo. "Theo, youâve been busy with work
lately, but you have to remember to eat at proper times. Don't take advantage of the fact that youâre
young and healthy to neglect your body."
"That's right, Theowy," Cindy added on. "You must take care of your health."
Quinn ruffled Cindy's hair affectionately. "Our Cindy is so caring."
Cindy smiled in embarrassment. "I'm nothing compared to Wanda.â
Oh, f*cking hell...
They would not even let me have breakfast in peace, would they?
Did they have to disgust me all the time?
"Quinn, I remember you're just past 30, right?â I asked calmly as I put my fork down.
Theo nodded. "Sheâs 35."
"But why do I feel that she speaks like an elderly woman in her 60s?â I clicked my tongue in
amazement. "I suppose that all people with a lot of life experience speak very maturely.â
Theo curled his lips upward. "I nearly thought Quinn was my mom just now."
What we meant by that was Quinn was being nosy and meddlesome. She was only a few years
older than Theo, but she kept claiming to be one of our elders. She did not know her place at all.
