Chapter 266
James returned to the Callahans.
However, no one was home. Everyone had gone to Goodview Villa District.
As James had left hurriedly earlier this morning, he had forgotten his keys. He wanted to call Thea, but he dismissed the idea immediately. He sat by the stairs outside the door and smoked his cigarettes. He pulled his phone out and played Plant vs. Zombies to pass time.
Soon, it was noon.
Before the rest of the Callahans came back, Thea returned.
She saw James sitting by the stairs the moment she got off the elevator. She frowned and questioned, “Why are you sitting here?”
Hearing her voice, James hurriedly stood.
Putting away his phone, he smiled. “I forgot my keys, darling. No one’s home, so I waited here.”
Thea glanced at James and said nothing. She turned toward the door. Then, she pulled out her keys and unlocked the door.
James followed her in.
“Have you eaten, honey? Should I cook something?”
“I’ve already eaten, but go and cook something up anyway. Otherwise, my mom’s going to chew you out again. I’m going to take a nap and will be heading to Pacific Group later this afternoon. Don’t interrupt my nap.”
Saying that, she turned to leave.
She did not sleep well last night. After a hectic morning, she was completely exhausted. James looked at Thea entering her room. He could feel her apathy toward him. “Sigh!” He sighed.
