Chapter 1735
| did a lot of things today. When | got back to the villa, | immediately collapsed on the sofa.
Even if | was spiritually awake, my body was physically exhausted.
Caroline just happened to be back from grocery shopping. When she sawlying on the sofa, she trotted all the
way over, put down her things, and took a blanket from a shelf to coverup.
"Why'd you lie down just like this, Madam? Be careful or you might catch a cold."
"I'm alright. It's not that easy to fall ill." Although that was what | said, | still covered myself up with the blanket.
Caroline looked atand said earnestly, You're pregnant now, so you should be taking more care of yourself. I'll
get cooking now."
"Okay, | got it."
After | responded obediently, Caroline turned around and entered the kitchen.
As for me, | lay still and unknowingly fell asleep right there.
When | opened my eyes again, Theo's handsface cinto view. "Why are you back already?"

Since | just woke up, my voice was a little hoarse and a little softer. | propped myself up with Theo supporting
me. "Lazy little pig, it's already eight in the evening. Of course, I'm back."
When | looked out, it was already dark.
As | rubbed my eyes, | stood up and asked,"
Have you eaten?"
"No. I'm waiting for you."
We walked to the table together, and Caroline reheated the food again.
"What was the result of seeing Matthew today?"
| knew that Theo would ask. | sighed and replied, "There's no saving him."
It was the truth.
Seeing my dejected face, Theo did not ask any further and merely put more food on my plate. "Con. Eat
smore."
| had no appetite at this point. | merely poked around the food on my plate and muttered, "He has divorced Liz."
"This has nothing to do with you, so don't beat yourself up over it." Theo clearly understood my mood, so the
first thing he said were words of comfort.
When | looked up at him, | felt a little uncomfortable. "Liz is a very good woman. If she hadn't met Matthew, she
would've been very happy."
Perhaps because | was pregnant, | becmore and more emotional. My eyes were actually getting wet as |
spoke.
Upon noticing my abnormality, Theo
hurriedly sat over and wiped the
tears from the corners of my eyes.
"Fool, what are you sad about? It has nothing to do with you in the first
place."
My past with Liz kept popping up in my mind, and | still remembered her saying,’ We could've been great
friends." It madefeel particularly more emotional.

She was right. We could have been such good friends.
"Do you think I'm a jinx, Theo? It seems that everyone arounddoesn't do well."
Just like Cecilia and Liz.
As he stroked my head, there was a sense of distress not only in Theo's eyes but also in his tone of voice. "What
nonsense. I'm living well and incredibly happy. Wanda, everyone has their own lives. It's up to them to control
their own lives. You can't control them, okay?"
Theo's rarely-seen earnest consolation truly warmed my heart.
"I know. | truly do."
Nheless, | was just sad.
After quite stime, | slowly recovered and wiped the tears from my cheeks. | went back to my smiling self
and said, "I hate this version of me. I'm so overly
sensitive."
"| like you no matter what." Theo smiled lightly. "Alright, let's eat up. We've been sitting here for quite stime
and we haven't taken a single bite." "Okay, let's eat."
With Theo by my side, | stopped thinking about Matthew and Liz. However, regarding Zedd's matter today, «
thought that Theo had to know about it as well. "I also bumped into Zedd today."
