Chapter 674

I was just about to walk over when I heard him say in a cold voice, "I'd like to see if Zimmer

Corporations can really afford to waste time with Grant Corporation."

His voice was not loud but his imposing demeanor was evident. It was not hard to hear the

harshness in his words.

If I had not seen it this time, I would have forgotten that he was Theo Grant, the business prodigy

who conquered the business world.

In the last three years, I would sometimes hear others talking about Theo or read news about him

on the internet. Many of them commented that he was cold and cruel. His means of doing things

were ruthless.

However, the man who was described as such was not like that in front of me.

The man caught sight of me out of the corners of his eyes and immediately, his gaze softened. He

made a stop gesture at the computer screen before turning around to look at me, saying with a

smile, "You're awake.”

I nodded, my gaze falling on his laptop. "You can finish your work."

I was afraid that he would say inappropriate things in front of everyone while on video conference.

"This is nothing urgent." He shut his laptop before getting up and walking toward me. He opened his

arms and took me in. "Have you not been resting well these two days? Do you want to sleep

more?"

I shook my head and lifted my hand to stroke his abdomen. "Is it still hurting?"

There was a faint chuckle in my ear. "With you beside me, I feel like I'm full of strength. I don't feel

any pain."

He buried his face in the crook of my neck, his breath blazing hot. "Wanda, for the past three years,

I've been thinking about how I should love you and treat you kindly if we ever had the chance to be

together again."

After a pause, he continued, "I kept stopping myself from finding you and thought that if we should

meet one day, then that's all part of God's plan. If that happens, I'll win your heart back no matter

what and never let go of you."

I grabbed his shirt. "You're too cunning."

He knew what I meant by that and chuckled. "I'm not sure if you still hate me after three years, so

even though I'm dying to take you into my arms, I dare not d o so because I'm afraid that you'll run

away again.

Therefore, I can only test it little by little."

I pursed my lips. "How's the test going so far?"

"I'm very satisfied.” He held me tightly. "I knew Keith would go and find you. I thought that if you

came, then that would mean that you still care about me. I would no longer need to watch over you

silently like before, acting like a stranger who was also close to you."

I was slightly moved. He had completely changed. He began to take my feelings into consideration,

using the gentlest way to help me face him again.

"If it weren't for me, perhaps you’d be living a blissful life by now," I said indifferently.

If he had married Cindy back then, he might have had a happy family by now.

He held my hand. "If it weren't for you, I may never know what happiness is."

I pursed my lips and finally asked the question I had been meaning to ask for three years, "Why did

you swap Cindy’s and my DNA back then?”

When I learned about it three years ago, I had wanted t o ask about it but did not have the courage

to. I was afraid that his answer would plunge me into complete darkness.

However, three years had passed, so I let it drop and finally had the courage to ask this question.

Most importantly, no matter how heartbreaking his answer would make me feel, I knew that he

cared about me at this moment. I was a very important

person to him and that was all that mattered.

He hugged me and tightened his grip. "If you became Petra and Grayson’s daughter back then, you

would've divorced me without hesitation, right?"

I was stunned. Even if I was not Grayson and Petra's daughter, I was still ready to divorce him back

then.

He seemed to know what I was going to say and said i n a self-deprecating manner, "Without Petra

and Grayson to back you up, it'd be hard for you to divorce w - H me.

What he said was true. What was more, I was pregnant at the time.
