Chapter 459

I shook off his hand in disgust. "Don't touch me."

"Wanda, it's no one's fault that he's dead," Theo said indifferently.

Did he mean Matthew was to blame?

I held myself back and closed my eyes.

"Come on, Wanda." Theo tried to pick me up. "I'll let you have a hot bath. After that, you can get a

good night's sleep."

"I said don't touch me!" I slapped his hand away fiercely.

Theo's hand froze in mid-air, and his eyes carried an icy chill. Even so, I was not afraid of him. I was

overwhelmed by anger, so I had no qualms spitting out hurtful words. "Theo, I really don't

understand why you insisted on not divorcing me before. You don't love me at all. If you really loved

me, you wouldn't have been so indifferent to Matthew, who saved my life previously. If it weren't for

him, I would've died a long time ago. If you loved me, you would've at least been a little more

appreciative."

The more I spoke, the more agitated I became. I could not stop. It was as if I wanted to vent out all

the discontentment I was feeling in my heart, all at once.'

I regret all of this. I should’ve chosen Matthew. At least he wouldn't be like you. You can’t even

protect your own child. You caused me pain, inside and out. You and Quinn are the same. You guys

only bring disaster to other people."

Theo’s pupils constricted slightly, and his breathing quickened. I could see the faint veins slowly

throbbing on his forehead. He was angry, much angrier than usual.

"Take back what you just said," he grabbed my arm and said coldly.

I stared at him coldly. "There’s no point crying over spilled milk. I meant what I said. If you’re

unhappy about it, you can either beat me up or leave. That way, you can save us from staring at

each other with hatred."

"Wanda!" Theo roared.

I closed my eyes.

I finally knew why Quinn had insisted that I go to the Zimmers' place to stay with her. It turned out it

was because she knew Matthew was intending to kill her, s o she had me stay with them and be her

get-out-of-death card.

I did not care if I was called cruel or vicious. If I had the chance to choose again, I would never go to

the Zimmers' place to give Quinn her get-out-of-death card.

Even so, there was no such thing as getting another chance to start over in life. Matthew was

already dead.

I could not hold in my tears. Theo touched my eyes and sighed softly. "Wanda, his death wasn't

your fault, nor was it my cousin's fault. It was just an accident that happened because he tried and

failed to kill Quinn.”

"Get the hell out of here!" Anger rushed straight to my head as I pushed him hard. "How is she not

at fault? If she hadn't told Nancy those things, she wouldn't have killed herself and Matthew wouldn't

have tried to kill her, let alone die. You can cover for her if you want to, but don't be delusional

enough to think that you can brainwash me into believing she's innocent."

Theo pursed his lips and came over to hug me again." Okay, you can think whatever you want, but

you were i n the snow for too long and your body hasn't warmed u p until now. You'll get sick if you

go on like this. Go and take a hot bath first, okay?"

He wanted to pretend that everything was fine. I let out a cold laugh. "Get away from me, Theo. I

don't want to see you right now."

Theo ignored me and tried to help me undress.

I could not hold it in anymore, so I shouted, "Are you deaf? Don't you hear me telling you to go

away?"

"Have you had enough?" Theo finally could not hold it i n anymore.

"I'm not kidding!" I kicked his leg hard. "Go away!"

Theo took a deep breath. I thought that he would leave angrily, but he did not. Instead, he squatted

down and held my leg.

"Your legs are getting too cold. I can even feel how cold they are through your pants. Can we talk

about this after you take a hot shower?" 1
