| burst out in maniacal laughter. "It wouldn't be a problem if you agree."
This man in front ofdid not even ask why | went t o the apartment. How unreasonable of him to lose his
temper without asking what had happened!
Theo got so angry that he slammed his palm against the door hard. The sound was extremely loud and terrifying.
"Wanda Lane, do you really think so? Do you really want to be with him?"
Ultimately, | could not stand his temper anymore. Thus, | lifted my hands and pushed him on his chest." Theo
Grant, you said you might not be returning tonight. If | truly wanted to be with him, why did | cback in the
heavy rain in the middle of the night? When it comes to Matthew Zimmer, you always lash out atwithout
even asking for the details.
You're just being unreasonable.”

late before coming back."
The corners of my lips twitched as | said, "Look, I'm tired from standing. Letsit down and I'll explain
everything to you."
Theo suppressed his anger and stepped aside.

"I'll get you a glass of water," he said with gritted teeth.
| supposed he must be irked to his limits, having to give in when he was the one who was upset.
In an instant, my mood was lifted. When he returned with the glass of water, | said calmly, "Promisethat
you'll never lose your temper like that again until you ask for the details."
"Wanda Lane!" He ground his teeth together. "Know your limits!"
| shrugged. "lI won't speak, then."
Anyway, there was nothing he could do toif | chose to keep my lips sealed. The best he could do was vex
himself to death.
He stared intently atwith his jet-black eyes. There were obvious streaks of resentment in his expression.
"Wanda, if you still choose to keep silent, I'll torture you tonight even if you're mad."
"You!" My eyes widened. "Bastard!"
He let out a cold snort, as though he was admitting to his despicable nature. He said, "What can you do to m e?"
| took a deep breath and yielded. "I'll tell you about it." With that, he straightened his back, eager to hear what |
had to say.
As soon as | had flashbacks of Nancy leaping off the building, | shuddered. "I presyou've met Matthew's
mother before. She... She jumped off the rooftop of Zimmer Corporations. I'm sure you can understand that this

After listening to my explanation, Theo's expression grew grave. "Why did she have to make such a choice?"
| sighed lightly. "Nancy found out that Marcus still loved her until his very death. There was another reason why
he divorced her and married Quinn Grant back then. | guess she was so engulfed by guilt that she wanted to
apologize to him in person."
Theo sat by my side and placed an arm across my shoulder. "Okay, let's stop thinking about it. Everyone has
their own fate."
He had only met Nancy once, so he was not too affected by her death.
"Matthew is a grown-up and a man at that too. He does not need you by his side all the time. The one who needs
your company is your husband-me," he
said calmly.
The childish words that fell from his lips seemed to seize my tongue.
Seeingspeechless, he frowned and asked, "Is that clear?"
