She turned her head, looked at Theo’s angry face, and cautiously asked, "What will you do if Ellinor really doesn't care about you anymore?"
Theo's jaw tightened; he didn't say a word and just started the car.
After seeing his reaction, Sophia figured that there might be no chance left between him and Ellinor; the only link left between them would be the child in Ellinor's belly.
So she let out a sigh of concern. "Theo, if it's really not working out, don't force it! From today's interaction, I also felt that Ellinor is a bit hard-headed.
I'm not saying Ellinor is bad; it's just that she doesn't seem right for you. You guys being together might just wear each other out."
After taking a turn, Theo replied, in his low voice. "She's still young and a bit childish, so I'll apologize on her behalf for today. If today's incident has hurt you, I'll have someone take you to a plastic surgery hospital and provide you with ample compensation."
Sophia was taken aback. "Theo, what are you talking about compensation for? We've been friends for years; it doesn't have to be like this! And I didn't think much of this little injury on my forehead."
Theo gave her a brief acknowledgment and just focused on driving, not saying much else.
But Sophia didn't plan on stopping there; she tentatively asked, "Theo, if you think Ellinor doesn't care about you anymore, why are you still apologizing for her?"
Sophia had known this man for over a decade, and she had never seen him apologize before.
Now he apologized for another woman?
This shocked Sophia.
Without thinking too much, Theo just sighed and said, "Ellinor is the wife I chose; if I don't take responsibility for the problems she causes, who will?"
Sophia was very surprised, feeling both envy and a bit of jealousy.
Even under these circumstances, Theo still considered himself Ellinor's husband?
