Chapter 957

"Go to them.” Theo turned a deaf ear and got up to walk up to me. He said with a smile, "I'll wipe it

for you, then."

Elena probably thought I was being a hindrance and glared at me with an unkind gaze. She only

turned around and left when Theo took the towel from my hand.

Theo looked at me and said helplessly, "You don't want to blow dry your hair and are too lazy to

wipe with a towel. If you're like this, you'll get sick easily.”

I smiled. "Why don’t you wipe it for me, then?"

Theo raised his eyebrows. "Happy to serve you."

He started wiping my hair after saying that. His actions were extremely gentle.

I cast my eyes down and stared at Theo's leather shoes. It seemed like he was in a rush to leave

the door this morning that he forgot to put on the polished pair that Caroline had prepared for him.

Later, I found him staring at me with a cool and tender gaze. The swirl in his dark pupils seemed to

have the ability to swallow a person.

"Is there something on my face?" I instinctively touched my face.

Theo chuckled, and there was a flash of light in his eyes. "No.”

I pursed my lips. “Shall we have lunch together?"

"What do you want to have?"

"Anything."

Theo nodded. "We'll go out and take a look."

He still had a meeting to attend. Keith came several times to rush him but he only left after wiping

my hair dry.

After putting on the clothes that Keith brought me, I found a book and sat on the sofa to read it.

Elena did not knock, and I was surprised to see her come in so suddenly. I looked at her and said

blandly," He went for a meeting."

She ignored me and walked to the desk to put down the files in her hand before turning around to

leave.

However, she suddenly stopped in her tracks when she walked past me.

Seeing that she had something to say, I helplessly smiled. "What do you want to say, Ms. Mandez?"

Elena sneered and sat down in front of me audaciously. She raised her chin proudly and asked," He

hasn't been going home late lately, has he?"

I had no intention of answering and merely looked calmly at her.

Elena had only been out in society for a short time and was still too inexperienced. Seeing that I

was unstirred, she asked a little impatiently, "Don’t you want to ask anything?"

I figured she was quite funny and said with a slight smile, "Get straight to the point. Don't beat about

the bush."

She snorted and gloated, saying, "He works till late every night with me. Sometimes, we even have

dinner together."

After a pause, she smugly said, "You can't keep up with his pace anymore. What he needs right

now is a woman who can advance with him."

I recalled the red lipstick mark on Theo’s blouse and figured that she was the one who did it.

For some reason, I really wanted to laugh. Hence, I laughed.

Elena could not stand seeing me flashing her a mocking smile and said in exasperation, "Don’t you

feel like a clown now?"

"Who's the clown here?" I crossed my arms and looked at her with a faint smile. "You merely work

with him till late and shared a few meals together yet you're already showing off in front of me? I’ve

had meals with him and slept on the same bed with him for years, so who exactly is more like a

clown now?" 2
