I took the bottle and glanced at the wordings. I asked with confusion, “A supplement?”
Theo nodded his head. "Quinn brought it back from abroad to increase blood cell count."
Since it was good for my body, then I would have to take it.
Seeing that he was in no hurry to leave the house, I said helplessly, "Hurry up and take a shower. You can visit Shannon with me."
Theo kissed my cheek and said with a smile, "Yes, Ma'am Wifey."
I glared at him with a smile. "Slick talker. When Theo was done showering, we changed our clothes and went out the door.
On the way to the hospital, Theo received a call and said apologetically, "I may not be able to visit Shannon with you."
I nodded. "It's alright. I can go by myself. You can stop at the intersection ahead and I’ll take a cab there."
I had heard him talking over the phone just now, and it sounded like something urgent.
I could understand.
Theo darted me a glance but did not say anything.
Seeing that he had no plans of stopping the car, I went along with it.
When we arrived at the hospital, he stopped the car. In order not to delay him further, I grabbed my bag and was about to get out of the car.
When I opened the door handle, I realized that it was locked. I turned around to look a t him with slight curiosity. "What’s wrong?”
Theo's eyes were deep as the sea. He was merely staring fixedly at me, asking, "Do you plan to leave just like that?"
I raised my brows. "Why not?"
