Chapter 600
The Woman From Hell
He frowned. "It does seem a little odd."
"Right?" I sat up from the bed and said quickly, "We're enemies, so even though we didn't fight each
other to a bitter end, we should at least never see each other again, no? Whatever it is, they
shouldnât be this obsequious toward me. They've been overly obsequious during this period and I
can't figure out why they're treating me like that. Theo, do you think theyâre plotting some kind of
conspiracy?"
He was amused. "You think too much. Maybe they just want you to let go of the past so we can all
get along well in the future."
Was it possible?
Could people who were once sworn enemies one day shake hands and be friends? i
It was impossible!
I sighed and rested my chin on my hand, feeling a little irritable. After a pause, I looked at him again
and said, "Theo, has anything unpleasant happened between you and Mason?"
He looked up, his gaze somewhat deep. "Youâve asked me this question twice."
I furrowed my brows and pursed my lips, saying no
more.
He looked at me with a deep gaze. âAre you suspecting Mason?"
For a moment, I did not know what to say. I looked at him and fell silent for a moment, saying, "I'm
just guessing all the possibilities."
He pursed his lips. "You don't need to overthink about Masonâs matters because I know them by
heart. You don't have to interfere anymore. Get some rest."
Having said that, he got up and went downstairs.
I was stunned, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Jerome came up and said he wanted to take Munchkin away. I knew I was in a terrible state at the
moment, and with the caretakers and nannies away, I was not confident enough to do a good job at
taking care of Munchkin. Hence, I agreed.
There was no one at home, so my mood became worse. I lay on the bed until nighttime, wanting to
sleep but was unable to. I just kept thinking about things.
It was already midnight when Theo came back.
Seeing that I had not slept yet, he furrowed his brows slightly. "You haven't slept yet?"
"I'm about to."
He hummed a reply and said, âSwitch off the lights and go to bed, then."
He walked up to me after saying that, planting a kiss o n my forehead slowly and softly.
"Iâm going to France and Iâll be back tomorrow. Miss Woods is already here. Tell her if you want to
eat anything. Get a good sleep and don't stay up late or I'll take you to the hospital by force when I
come back,â h e said in a low voice.
"Has something happened in France?" Why was he going to France when it was already so late?
He smoothed my hair, his voice warm and tender. "It's just a minor issue. I just need to go over
there for a while."
I wrinkled my eyebrows. Usually, he would not deliberately inform me of something unless it was
something major and would just text me instead. Today, seeing that he had deliberately come back
to inform me, I was sure that this was relatively serious.
I held him back and asked, "What is it?"
He laughed aloud and kissed my forehead. "Why are you so sad to see me leave? Are you planning
to give m e a huge farewell gift?"
I...
"Theo, you rascal!"
He laughed. "Iâm your husband. I won't call this being a rascal, it's called spicing things up. Stay at
home to recuperate so you can compensate me properly when I come back!"
