"I don’t have any feelings for Matthe either." I sneered and said, "I told you, don't practice having double standards. Why can't you just listen?
"I truly can’t understand what's on your mind. I told you there's nothing going on between me and Matthew but you refuse to believe me. Do you really want to hear me admit that something is going on between us?"
The veins on Theo’s forehead were bulging. "Wanda Lane, this is an invalid argument."
I had no intention to continue the argument. It was exhausting to fight with each other. I did not have the energy to argue about these meaningless matters. " Alright, alright. It’s my fault. I should’ve stayed away from him. I should’ve left him alone even though he was drunk. Can you please forgive me this time?"
If this were in the past, I would never have admitted that it was my fault. I would disregard his temper and wreak havoc until it was made clear who was in the right and who was in the wrong. However, I prefer keeping the peace now. Both of us were busy people, s o we should stop wasting our time fighting over meaningless things.
However, Theo did not want to let it drop.
"I can sense that there's something fishy between you and him."
I...
I was speechless.
I let out a soft sigh. I was trying hard not to let my emotions affect my tone. "If you’re sure that there's something going on between us, then you won’t believe me no matter how much I explain myself. There’s nothing I can do anymore. Just think whatever you want to think."
After that, I walked toward the bathroom.
If I had to say even another sentence to him, I would b e so pissed that I would not be able to sleep at night.
I took a shower. Theo was standing at the door when I came out. I raised my brows. "Why are you standing here?"
He turned around, his expression looking much better now. "I’m waiting for the housekeeper to send over some food."
Why did he have to stand and wait at the door?
I did not know what he was up to. I went into the bedroom without a word.
