Afraid that his beastly side would show, I dared not open my mouth and just pursed my lips tightly. I released sounds from the depths of my throat. "Go and shower, Theo."
Theo chuckled and rubbed his nose on mine. "I plan to transfer this project to another company to minimize the losses. Can you come back to Whaldorf City with m e after this?"
He had only bought this land in the first place because of me.
Now that he had coaxed his wife back, he was no longer interested in this project anymore.
I rested my chin on his shoulder and said a little unhappily, "But I want to finish this project instead of giving it up halfway, much less be a Whaldorf City rich wife who only stays at home all day."
"Wanda.”
Theo bit my ear. "You shouldn't think that I'm trying to cage you up. After returning to Whaldorf City, I'll support you in whatever you want to do. You can study to be a lawyer or work in a company. I won’t stop you."
"But I've worked really hard for this project."
Theo helplessly sighed. "I strongly suspect that you're a little traitor Jordan sent to seduce me."
What was he talking about?
I pushed him away and snapped. "Go take a shower. I'm going to bed."
After saying that, I hopped off the sink and left the bathroom in a haste.
It was not that I had to finish this project, but after these incidents, it seemed like someone was playing tricks on us behind our backs. I would not feel at ease about returning to Whaldorf City before getting to the bottom of this.
Hearing the sound of water coming from the bathroom, I remembered that I was not done with my skincare routine and went back to the dressing table to finish where I left off.
Theo walked out of the bathroom after showering. When he saw me sitting in front of the dressing table applying this and that, he walked over and asked a little curiously, "Do these bottled things really work?"
A question from a male chauvinist!
