Chapter 658 Fred smiled but did not say anything else.
Theo took the initiative to pour him a glass of wine, his voice faint yet attractive. "Thanks for taking care o f her all these years." I had never told anyone about the relationship between Theo and me. Although Fred suspected it, he had always been a gentleman about it and would not ask if I did not say.
Now that Theo had cleared the air, he knew what was going on.
After a few glasses of wine, the conversation and atmosphere warmed up. Both men seemed to have quite a lot in common.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTheo was a business elite in Whaldorf City. If he was said to only be hiding his light under a bushel during his tin Salt City, then being in Whaldorf City was the the showed off all those capabilities.
In the three years I was away, he had turned Grant Corporation into a leading company in Whaldorf City. Its status was unparalleled, and he becthe most striking presence in the whole of Whaldorf City.
A person like that did not only stand out among the ladies as he was equally admired by the men.
Munchkin was soon tired after eating. I brought him to his bedroom to sleep, and when I cout, I saw both men sitting together watching television. They were not talking about anything else.
Tiana was also sleepy, so when Fred sawcoming out, he picked Tiana up and prepared to bid farewell.
When the pair left, Theo got up to clean the table and I helped him.
"You've changed a lot, Theo." I put the cutleries in the sink. "How should I put this? You're more dependable and charming now." He looked at me. "You've changed too. You're gentler and more beautiful now." Were we flattering each other? I burst out laughing.
He took the bowl from my hands and said, "I'll clean them. You should go to the living room and rest." Knowing that I would not win in this argument, I did not say anything else and washed my hands before leaving the kitchen.
I went to the bedroom to check on Munchkin. He was sleeping soundly, and that putat ease. I then went to the living room to watch the television.
When Theo was done cleaning, he cover and sat beside me. Leaning back against the back of the sofa, h e closed his eyes.

I did not pay any attention to what was being played on the television. My brain was a mess, a flurry of thoughts running through my head. I was also wondering why Theo had not said anything and what he was thinking about? Unsure how long it had been, I glanced at him once more and realized that he might have fallen asleep.
I got up and went to the room to grab a blanket. I covered it on his body.
At this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes. Having no tto evade, our eyes met and I was suddenly in a daze.
His eyes were glowing and looked particularly bright." I saw you in my dreams several times. When I woke u pland realized that you weren't around, that always leftin a daze for a very long time." I pursed my lips, not knowing what to reply.
His gaze was blazing hot, and my face was slightly warm. I cast my eyes down and said mildly, "If you're tired, then go to the room to sleep." Seeing that I was about to leave, he quickly grabbed my hand. "Will you be willing to go back to Whaldorf City with me?" I pursed my lips. "I'm doing just fine over here."
"It's fine if you don't want to go back to Whaldorf City with me." He was not disappointed. "It's pretty nice here. In any case, I'll be wherever you are."
His gaze grew even hotter as though it could burn my whole body to the ground. With the words he was saying, I turned away and said in a trembling voice," I'm tired. I'll be going back to my room now."
