Chapter 431

I walked out of the bathroom after I finished showering. When I saw Theo taking off his clothes, I

said briefly, "You should sleep in another room tonight."

He was taken aback for a second before he quickly walked toward me. "Why?"

I stopped wiping my hair and lowered my eyes. "No reason."

Theo reached out his arms to hug me. "You're just upset because I came back late and I didn't pick

up your call."

"I’m not." I pushed him away, annoyed.

"Why do you have to lie to me?" Theo's expression darkened. "You'll feel better if you just let it out,

and so will I."

I did not want to argue with him and continued to push him away without saying anything.

"Wanda Lane!" He tightened his hug around me, lowered his head, and bit my ear. "Tell me, why are

you mad? Or else, I won’t let you go."

"You!” I was irritated.

'This man is really hard to deal with!'

"Say it!” Theo exerted more force when biting me.

I could not take the pain anymore. "Are you a dog?"

"Say it!” Theo bit even harder.

"Fine, I'll say it, okay?" I was so done with him. "The hair on your shirt buttons belongs to Cindy,

right?"

Theo paused for a moment, then asked with a smile," Wanda Lane, you have such good eyesight.”

I glared at him angrily. "Thank you for your compliment."

"She was with Zedd and hung on me when I went over. I guess her hair got stuck on my button by

accident." Theo patted my back. "Don't worry, I won't d o anything that’ll hurt you. You should know

by now that I'm a man of my word.”

When I heard that, I felt slightly better and sneered lightly. "At least you’re honest."

Theo chuckled. "So, are you calm now?"

I nodded unwillingly.

Theo kissed me on the face. "I'll go shower and coax you to sleep later."

“I don't need you to do that!”

Theo dried my hair with the hairdryer after he came out from the shower and blew dried his own hair

too. He then came into bed and hugged me. "I didn't see you in the hospital. Quinn said that you

went off with

Matthew."

I nodded. "I followed him to the Zimmers' house.

Quinn also came back not long after. I returned home after I heard about what had happened in the

past.”

Theo raised an eyebrow. "I know part of it."

I did not want to discuss this with him, so I changed the subject. "Does Mason have any news on

Cecilia and Jerome?"

Theo shook his head. "I assume not since he didn't mention anything to me."

"No?" I started to worry once again.

Theo touched my face and asked gently, "Why don't I send someone to France to look for them?"

I let out a soft sigh. "No, I'm really worried. I should go t o France myself.”

Theo was taken back. "Do you really want to go?"
