Chapter 502

After a pause, she continued, "You think you'll be spared just because everyone is covering for you?

Your fingerprints are all over the knife. I'll take it to the police station and report it myself. I'll also hire

the best attorney out there and take this to court."

As soon as she finished her sentence, Theo stabbed himself in the abdomen with the fruit knife.

Everyone was stunned by his unexpected action. Cindy looked at him with a face filled with horror.

"W-What are you doing, T-Theowy?"

"I just have to stab myself, right?" Theo's complexion turned pale. "Wanda is my wife. I should bear

the consequences for her no matter what they are. I'll pay back for what she has done."

I rushed over to check his abdomen and said with reddened eyes, "I chose to do it. I should be the

one to bear the consequences no matter what they are. I don't need you to do this for me. Do you

think I'll be moved just because you did this?"

After a pause, I continued, "I did something wrong and should be punished. I'll turn myself in at the

police station.”

I turned around to leave after saying that.

Mason stopped me in my tracks, and I was displeased. "Stop it." Theo turned around and grabbed

my arm. "She's more important to you than me, huh?" Cindy asked in a quivering voice.

Theo turned around to look at her. "She's my wife. There’s no one in this world who's more

important to me than her."

"Y-You..." Cindy squeezed her eyes shut. "Get out. I want all of you to get out."

Theo refused to leave because his purpose had not been achieved. "Promise me that you’ll not

continue to pursue this matter. If you're still mad, then I'll stab myself one more time. Tell me where I

should stab."

Having said that, he reached out to pull out the fruit knife stuck in his abdomen.

This was bound to result in hemorrhage. Cindy widened her eyes in horror. "You leave me no

choice."

Theo was considered to have assented tacitly by not responding.

She took a deep breath and looked at Theo with disappointment and sadness in her eyes. "Okay, I

promise to not pursue this matter anymore."

He was then pushed into the operating room. I sat dazedly on the bench in the corridor, not hearing

a word Mason was saying when he walked over to talk t o me.

My mind was still in a mess after what had happened just now.

Petra and Grayson came to the operating theater. I was brought back to my senses by Petra's high

heels clicking on the floor.

I looked up at her.

"You don't have to be too worried." Her tone was particularly gentle.

There was a look of skepticism in my eyes. "I'm not in the mood to argue with you. You can retaliate

against me however you want. You don't have to inform me in advance."

Petra said anxiously, "We’re not trying to argue with you, I'm just worr-"

"That's enough." Grayson voiced out to interrupt her." This is now a thing in the past and there's no

need to bring it up again. It's late. I'll take you to Cindy's ward t o rest."

After they left, Mason blandly said, "They won’t give you trouble anymore after this."

I pursed my lips but did not say a word.

I was not concerned if they would retaliate against me and give me trouble. I was not afraid either.

Like I mentioned, I was willing to bear the consequences of my sins.

“His wound isn't deep, right?" I reconfirmed.

Mason sighed helplessly. "It isn't. He has also taken care of his body well, so a wound like that will

heal in no time at all."

I nodded and asked no more.

Theo was pushed out of the operating room and into a ward. The first thing he did when he woke up

from the anesthesia was ask to go home. At first, I was still kind enough to persuade him, but I later

lost my temper because he refused to listen to me.

"Theo Grant!" I pressed down on his shoulders and took a deep breath. "Tell me if you want to die

and I'll stab you a few more times. I'll then go to Cindy to let her stab me a few times and we'll all go

to hell together. How does that sound?"

"Why would anyone want to die for no reason?” Theo looked aggrieved. "You don't like the hospital,

right? Why don't you go home and ask Miss Woods to come over and take care of me?"

"I'm your wife. If I don't accompany you when you're hospitalized, am I supposed to ask Miss

Woods to come over and accompany you instead?” I sneered. " I'm afraid the media will criticize me

if they learn about this.”

Theo sneered. "No one will have the guts to do it if I’m around."

"Fine, fine, you’re the most capable, okay?"

I was actually moved by his words earlier and softened my tone tremendously.

"Be good and stay in the hospital. Only leave when the doctor says you're ready to leave. I’ll stay

here and take care of you."

Theo looked down to ponder. "Sleep with me tonight o r I refuse to."

Why was he acting like a child?

I stared at him speechlessly for a very long time without saying a word.

"Do you agree or not?" he asked, refusing to give in.

If I disagreed, then he might actually leave the hospital without listening to me. I sighed helplessly.

"I agree, okay?"

Theo was finally satisfied. I went to the washroom and when I came out, he eagerly told me to lie

down beside him.

When I walked over and lay down, he reached out to take me into his arms.

"Keep still and don't move," I said in exasperation," Don't you know that you're injured now?"

Theo raised his eyebrow. "This small injury is nothing."

What the f*ck...

This guy certainly did not have a normal brain.

Theo had just undergone surgery, so his body was

very weak and he did not plan to keep messing around. "Sleep. It’s getting late."

His voice was a little hoarse. I recalled the scene where the fruit knife was stuck into his abdomen

and could not help but cry.

"Theo, can you stop taking the liberty to do things that harm yourself in the future? Do you know

how terrified I was?"

In the past, people who were important to me were always leaving this world one by one. If

something happened to Theo, then I was definitely going to have an emotional breakdown.

I did not know if I would still have the courage to keep on living then.

Theo pinched my chin. "Were you afraid that I would die?"

I did not want to hear the word ’die' from his mouth, s o I lifted my head to kiss his lips.

After being stunned for a moment, Theo then deepened the kiss.
