Chapter 859

I nodded and said in an apologetic tone, "I was supposed to send food to you but got caught up with

things and forgot. Have you eaten?”

She sighed. "Petra is ill. It's no big deal whether I've eaten or not. Besides, there are caretakers at

home, so I won't starve. Just focus on taking care of Petra."

Susan did not quite understand what was going on between Petra and me, hence it was normal for

her to say that.

I helplessly smiled and changed the subject. "Is Tyler a t home?"

Perhaps the question was so sensitive that she remained silent for a while before saying, "He’s

probably still working in the company."

I guessed Tyler very rarely visited the mother and son.

I said, "Take good care of yourself. I'll visit you and the baby another day."

I hung up after saying that and planned to give Tyler a call.

At this moment, Theo held my hand and said tenderly, "It's New Year's Day. Don’t think about

unhappy things."

I looked up at him. "It says in the book that if a man

loves someone, he’ll clamber to her side no matter what, but why is this not what I see?”

Tyler was not disinterested in Susan. After years and years of companionship, even mountains

would be moved. I guarantee that he would not be able to accept it one day when Susan was no

longer around. After all, habits were terrifying.

However, if he actually cared about her, why did he have to be so cold to Susan when she was at

her most vulnerable?

Psychological damages were far more painful than physical damages.

Theo turned the steering wheel and looked sideways a t me. "There are ghosts, gods, and other

realms in books but are they found in reality?"

I shook my head.

He gently sighed. "That’s why a lot of what’s written in books are fake."

I laughed and said no more.

It was already very late when we got back to the villa.

The sky in Whaldorf City was cloudy again. Quinn said that it was probably going to snow because

there would be several heavy snowfalls in Whaldorf City every year.

Sure enough, like what Quinn said, there was heavy snowfall on the second day of the new year.

The white snowflakes made the whole world brighter than usual as if all the filth in the world had

disappeared.

I did not sleep all night, so Theo accompanied me and did not sleep all night as well.

In the morning, he saw my pale face and asked worriedly, "Do you want to go to the hospital to get

yourself checked?”

I shook my head. "It's just insomnia, why would I go to the hospital?"

After getting out of bed and a quick washing up, I came out of the bathroom and reminded him, "It's

snowing. Drive safe."

He walked over and held me in his arms, kissing my forehead. "Okay, darling."

Looking at the mischievous look on his face, I gently sighed. "Go and wash up.”

When he entered the bathroom, I put on my coat and went to the balcony.

This was an extraordinarily heavy snowfall. Most of the branches of the trees in the yard were

crushed.

It did not seem like a good idea to go out today.

I was pulled into a warm embrace, and I could make out a familiar scent. I looked back at the man

behind me. "When is Mason taking Munchkin to South Vasetine?”

Theo rested his chin on my shoulder. "When Munchkin is on holiday, I won't be on holiday yet. I

won't have time to take him out to play. South Vasetine is also warm now, so it's a good idea for

Mason to take him there and have some fun.”
