"Fortunately, the knife didn't penetrate too deep and he was brought to the hospital in time," the doctor said. "We’ve successfully removed the knife, but the patient lost a lot of blood, so he has to rest and will only wake up later. You can and go see him in the ICU.""Okay, thank you," Theo thanked the doctor.I covered my face. "Thank goodness, he's fine. Thank goodness, he's fine."Immediately after that, Marius was pushed out.He looked pale and weak and had an oxygen bottle attached to him. The doctors pushed him away from us.I looked in the direction he was leaving, crying uncontrollably. The ward. Marius still had not woken up. I stared at his haggard face sadly."Mmmph…" I hurried forward when I heard him groan. "Marius?"Marius opened his eyes slowly. When he saw us, he forced himself to smile before looking at me. "Don't worry, I won't die. Those below said I was too noisy and let me live for a few more years before I can go down again."His voice was weak, a
After saying that, Marius let me go.A smile graced the corners of his lips. He looked just like the sunny boy he was when we first met. "Goodbye, Sis Wan!"Marius then shouted in Theo's direction, "President Grant, take good care of my Sis Wan. Be careful, I'll be coming back again.""Don't worry, I won't give you the chance." Theo came over and grabbed my hand.Marius looked at us and smiled knowingly. He then turned around coolly and waved to us.Watching his gradually receding figure, scenes of the past flashed through my mind."Theo, has everything come to an end?" "Yes, it's all over," he replied. We left the airport and returned to Grant Corporation. Neil, now a Grant, had also joined the company sometime now. He was a capable person to begin with and was able to adapt quickly.In the office, I could hear Theo say that he wanted to leave Grant Corporation under his management. Neil refused at first and waved his hands. "What are you joking about? I definitely can't.
“You are seven weeks pregnant.” When the obstetrician handed over the pregnancy report to me, I had zero sense of joy within me. How did it happen so easily?If Theo Grant knew, would he not be willing to divorce anymore? No, he would hate me even more for trying to use a child to tie him down. “The first three months are crucial. Watch your diet, avoid having intercourse…” The doctor’s words brought me back to reality. I put away the report into my bag and left the hospital. I was in no mood to work anymore, so I decided to just go back to the villa. The villa was huge, but it was quiet all year long. Theo left early and came back late. Even if he was at home, he would stay in his study or his bedroom. I had no permission to enter either of these rooms. But, Theo was at home today. He sat on the sofa in the living room. He had a cold gaze, high nose bridge, and perfectly thin lips. Even his side view was always so handsome and perfect. God really blesse
I let out a shriek and backed away instinctively. “It’s me.” I was shocked for a moment, hearing Theo's cold voice. Did he not head off to accompany Cindy? Why did he return so quickly? He did not say anything, and he leaned down to kiss me. I could not avoid him. A sharp stench of alcohol filled my mouth. Theo was drunk! I was afraid. The last time he entered my room, it was three years ago. He was drunk the last time as well. I could still remember his condescending look and his mocking tone of voice vividly. I panicked and gazed at him with a pleading look. “Please don’t...” “Huh?” He raised his head and looked at me. His dreamy eyes looked darkened. The baby in me was only seven weeks old. Remembering what the doctor said, I was afraid that I would be in danger. I forced myself to look up at him and pleaded. “I am not feeling too well.” He did not say anything, but I could sense the fire burning in his eyes.His expression showed me that he w
Theo frowned, and his handsome face showed signs of displeasure. "Who are you to try to control me?"His voice was thirty percent sarcastic and seventy percent disdainful.I knew very well that it was impossible to make him stay, but sometimes I just had to try. I looked into his eyes and said softly, “I will agree to the divorce. The condition is that you stay tonight and accompany me to Grandmother's funeral tomorrow afternoon. I will sign the papers after the funeral.”He narrowed his eyes and grabbed my chin. His deep eyes were filled with disdain and mockery as he slowly said, “Do you even know how to make a man stay?”His voice was low and husky with a hint of seduction.I understood what he meant, but I did not know much about making love.After a long time, I unbuckled my belt. Theo pushed me away and said in disgust, “You are disgusting!”With that, he turned around and left without looking back.Haha, is there anything more humiliating than this? I did not care about
I closed my eyes. I felt like there were daggers in my chest. I did not want to watch the person I loved deeply care for other women and hate me.“This is my office. Please go to the reception room,” I insisted when I opened my eyes again.Theo sneered and pushed me away. He said sternly, "Wanda Lane, do you think that the Grant family belongs to you just because you bear the title of Mrs. Grant? You are not worthy!"His sharp words were disheartening as if they were cold water splashed at me.I took a step back and helplessly watched as Theo carried Cindy into the bathroom.He was right. This place belonged to the Grant family and not to me.Theo opened the wardrobe and took out an unworn set of clothes. He handed it to her and said softly, "Quickly take a hot bath. You might catch a cold later.""Theo, it is not that I do not want to wear Wanda's clothes. But you know that I have some skin allergies, so I can only wear custom-made clothes." Cindy held the clothes and said with
'F*cking hell, with her acting skills. It would be such a waste if she did not become an actress.' I could not help but vent out in my heart.“It is okay. I am strong and not afraid of the rain. I am glad you are okay.” Not wanting to pretend around with her anymore, I walked around the table to get ready to work.My words stunned Cindy. She turned around and looked at Theo. "Theowy, it is all my fault. I wasted Wanda’s effort to go all the way there for me. Can you let her have breakfast with us as my apology?"I...At first, Theo was seated there and could not be bothered about me. When he heard Cindy speak, he put down the hairdryer and looked at me. "Come and eat."His tone was cold and emotionless.Did it hurt? I was used to it!When it came to Theo whom I cared about, I could never reject him coldly.Despite having mixed feelings, I still smiled and said softly, “Thank you.” Then I turned around and sat on the other corner of the sofa."Wanda, try this burger. It is mine
He stopped in his tracks and asked apathetically, "What is the matter?"“It is Grandmother's funeral today,” I said quickly.He paused for a long time before saying, "It is good enough if you attend.""But she is your grandmother." His attitude toward his grandmother had already made his eldest uncle and his second uncle very unhappy. If he did not attend today, what would they think?"I have already made arrangements for the burial. Go and talk to Keith." His voice was calm as if he was giving instructions.Seeing that he was about to leave again, I raised my voice and said uncomfortably, “I have agreed to the divorce. The condition is that you accompany me to Grandmother's funeral in the afternoon, and I will sign the divorce papers after that.”For some reason, my words managed to provoke him. He grabbed my jaw and snapped, “It is not up to you whether to divorce or not. You do not have the final say.”I did not struggle and just let him grab me. I just looked up at him with
