I felt a stifling sensation in my heart after thinking about it.
Perhaps sensing my bad mood, Theo asked, "Are you tired?”
"No." I looked at the bags in his hand. "Is it heavy for you to carry so many things?"
Theo smiled and looked sideways.
Soon, a man clad in black walked over and took all the bags in his hands.
I was not surprised. I knew he had sent people to watch after me.
Although I could not see them, I often felt people staring at me from nearby.
The bodyguard disappeared into the crowd once more.
After waiting for a long time and seeing that Cindy had not returned, I indifferently asked, "Why don't you go look for her?"
Theo put his arm around my shoulders and said with a smile, "Don’t worry, I found someone to follow her."
He continued after a pause, "I wanted to take you out for a walk alone at first, but Zedd isn't here. Cindy will feel bored spending time alone in the accommodation. We'll spend time alone tomorrow night, okay?"
I nodded “Okay."
Unknowingly, Theo was starting to call Cindy by her first name again.
It seemed like Cindy’s relentless efforts had paid off. He seemed to see her as a sister who needed to be taken care of once more.
This made me upset.
Cindy was someone I could never forgive.
Must he take care of her?
Theo squeezed my hand. Sensing pain, I looked up at him. "What's wrong?”
