Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 17

Everleigh instantly turned around.

Theodore's torso was naked as he came out of the bathroom. A towel was wrapped around his abdomen. Water was dripping from his hair, sliding down his body.

The chemistry in the air made Everleigh go blank.

"Are you done staring?"

Theodore stared at her and his gaze fell on her chest. He chuckled coldly, "I haven't seen you in years. I see you're able to take off your clothes after entering a man's room now. Did you learn that abroad?"

Everleigh suddenly snapped back to her senses. She widened her eyes and cried in surprise. She placed her hands over her chest hurriedly.

Theodore could not be bothered to look at her. He averted his gaze and reached for his bathrobe.

Everleigh was embarrassed. "I didn't know it's your room."

"Do you know that it's my house?"

She was at a loss for words.

"How long are you going to stand there?"

She came back to her senses and grabbed the fresh laundry from the bed. She strode to the door and left in a rushed manner. "I'm sorry."

Everleigh's figure disappeared behind the door. Theodore exhaled slowly. His chest heaved as he tied his bathrobes.

Theodore sat down on the bed and took out his cigarette. He was about to light a cigarette when he heard a ringtone.

It was Everleigh's mobile phone. She had forgotten it in his room.

The caller ID popped up and it read 'Baby'. Theodore's eyes were icy and his finger brushed across the screen. He hesitated for a moment before answering the call.

A soft voice came from the other end of the call. "Mommy, when are you coming back today? I want to eat cupcakes! Alastair won't let me eat them."

Theodore did not speak.

"Sorry, I forgot my phone..."

Suddenly, Everleigh opened the door. She noticed that Theodore was holding her mobile phone. Immediately, her expression changed and she rushed to Theodore. She grabbed her mobile phone and hung up the call.

Theodore's gaze was fixated on her. He asked word by word, "You're married?"
