Chapter 1166

Those words made me blush. Seeing how h e was putting food on my plate constantly, 1 touched

his spoon, hinting at him to stop it.

Elena was no fool, nor was she blind.

Anyone could see the hickeys on my neck without having to look closely enough. Her expression

instantly sank.

She took a deep breath and held her composure. She said in a rather calm manner, "Mr. Grant and

Ms. Lane, I'm alone. Do you mind if I join you?"

"No.”

"Yes."

Theo and I spoke at the same time, but different answers came out of our mouths.

Elena gritted her teeth and said a little aggrievedly, "I'm sorry for interrupting."

She turned around and left after saying that.

I looked at Theo and frowned, saying, "Why are you so cruel? It's not only boring for her to eat

alone but also extremely awkward."

Theo raised his eyebrows. "I don't like other people sitting beside me when I eat. It'll affect my

appetite."

I rolled my eyes at him. "Your appetite doesn't seem to be affected when I'm sitting beside you."

Theo smiled slightly. "You’re different."

My mouth twitched. I grabbed a spoonful of alfalfa and put them on his plate. "Have more. It’s good

for your kidneys."

Theo narrowed his eyes and asked with a faint smile, "Did I not satisfy you last night, Ma'am?"

I was drinking water, and his words instantly made me choke.

After coughing for a long time, I was finally able to stop.

Theo handed me a piece of tissue, but because I was mad, I did not reach out to take it.

"If you don’t wipe it yourself, then I'll do it for you,” the man said with a smirk.

There were many people at the canteen, many of whom would glance in our direction from time to

time. If he wiped my mouth for me, then I figured other people's appetite would be satisfied by just

watching us.

I glared furiously at him and took the tissue from his hand.

After wiping away the water from my mouth, I glared at him and said, "Can you focus when you eat

and not think of other things, Theo?”

Theo raised his eyebrows. "You said that m y kidney is weak. How can any man accept that?"

My mouth twitched as I said with a face full of helplessness, "I didn't say that your kidney is weak.

I'm just saying that alfalfa i s good for the kidney and told you to eat more. That doesn’t mean that

your kidney i s weak. Do you understand?"

Theo nodded and shamelessly asked, "Are you complimenting me, then?" I found it hard to

communicate with this man's magical way of thinking.

If we continued talking, then we would not even have time to eat this meal. Hence, I cleverly chose

to be quiet.

Fortunately, Theo did not say other things t o make me spit out my food and started eating in

silence.

Just as I was about to finish my meal, Shannon gave me a call.

I had just picked up the call when her high decibel voice rang out in my ear, "Are you i n the resort?

I'm so bored. Can I go and see you?"

I said with a face full of helplessness," There's been a case of theft in the research institute. Do you

think I have time to keep you company if you come over?" "It's okay. I'll go and endure this agony

with you. I know everyone there anyway.

They’re not going to drive me away, are they? I can go and see my grandpa at the same time. He

even told me to invite you to a meal just a few days ago. If you're free tonight, then let’s make it

today. How's that?”
