Theo's sharp eyes narrowed slightly. "What did Nadia say to her?"
Keith lifted his hand to stroke his nose. She hesitated for a very long time before saying, "B*tch.”
Theo did not speak for a very long time.
At this moment, the servant brought the food over and Theo went into the kitchen with Keith following behind him.
I stood rooted in the same spot for a moment, then went downstairs.
In the kitchen, Theo and Keith were standing side by side in front of the kitchen counter. Both men were slender, and their backs alone were eye-catching enough.
Theo took out the vegetables from the bag. He washed and cut them before putting them in a bowl. "Do you know what women care most about?"
Keith stopped in his action but made no reply, asking, "What should I do?"
Theo gave him a sidelong glance but did not answer.
Keith thought about it and asked unsurely, "Women care most about their appearance?"
"Hah." Although there was a faint smile on Theo's face, it was hair-raising to look at. "Only by destroying the thing she cares most about will she learn who she can and can't provoke."
Keith nodded. "I know what to do now."
Keith pulled a paper towel beside him to wipe his hands before fishing out his phone from his pocket.
Theo crossed his arms and turned around to lean against the wall, looking at him with a mild gaze." She's considered Mason’s woman, after all. So inform him first. If he cares about this woman, then go slightly easy on her; if he doesn't care, then you don't have to hold back."
Keith nodded and turned around to leave the kitchen.
I was standing not far away from the kitchen and overheard their conversation. Keith was a little surprised to see me when he came out, but after a moment, he put on his usual countenance. "Mrs. Grant."
I nodded but did not say anything.
After Keith left, Theo came out of the kitchen.
When he saw that I wasn’t wearing any shoes, he frowned so hard. He hurried over to pick me up. "Why are you walking barefooted?"
