Theo chuckled. "Any more questions?"
I shook my head. "No."
"Really? None?"
I was a little confused. "Is there anything else I should be asking?"
Theo pulled me to a juice store and said, "Caroline told me that you found a lipstick mark on my blouse. Why didn't you ask me about it?"
It turned out he knew the whole time and had just been waiting for me to ask.
I helplessly smiled and said honestly, "I trust you."
He pursed his lips and lowered his head thoughtfully.
"Are you buying me juice?" I wanted to avoid this topic.
Theo nodded with a smile. "Of course."
After buying juice, we realized that we had been strolling for ten minutes. We returned to the company.
The car stopped at the entrance of Grant Corporation's building. I unbuckled my seat belt and looked at Theo, saying, "I won't be going upstairs."
Theo nodded. "Are you going home?"
I smiled. "I’ll go home and wait for Munchkin to get off school."
After saying that, I opened the car door and got out.
Theo walked to my car with me. After I got in, he leaned over at the window and said, "Remember to give me a call when you get home."
I nodded with a smile. "Okay."
Theo took two steps back and waved at me. "Drive safe."
