Cruel World novel Chapter 18

Theo

'Im telling you Theo to control your wife...now she may be the mother of your child but it did not give her right to make your father against me..he called me and say those stuff that he never said to me in our all married life' Roma yelled and cried to Theo

Theo grabs his nose and sighs 'Mom plz calm down. I'm coming home and I will ask Sarah but plz mom try to be a little civil with her in front of dad..you know dad will be gone in few weeks so plz

Roma cuts him in middle'I can see you how you support that girl nowadays...you say to us she and her daughter are not important to you but I can see you how you internally changing your mind.'

Theo was speechless..is this true? did he feel like that ...he shakes his head.. his mind is already so messed up 'mom I told you they are nothing to me...so relax I'm coming home'

Tom looked at Theo when Theo put the phone down and said 'Looks like dad is taking class not only of yours but of everyone..no wonder what Sarah has done with dad..your wife is something Theo' Tom said in a sarcastic tone..which Theo glare and don't like what he is saying about Sarah.

But he was right Theo dad has already called him and blamed him for number of things which he can't decline..that what kind of husband and father he is ...how he is hurting Sarah..but his dad was saying this only on current context he has no idea Theo has been doing this long before this..

Both the brother enter the mansion and saw the chefs, butler and all the helper, setting the huge feast at the dining table. Tom said 'is someone coming?'.Theo just shrug ..then they saw mother and father talking in hush sound...Roma looks furious about but she was lip tight

Mr. Grey saw their sons and said 'good you guys are on time... I want my family member in the dining table...as you can see this dinner is in the honour of my granddaughter Ava Grey'

Theo eyes become strangely soft, Ava..his daughter name is Ava..he start to feel something that his ego doesn't allow to feel that properly. He then saw...sarah wearing a light pink dress..damn she looks beautiful..and was holding her daughter ..his daughter..stop it Theo. She is nothing to you..he told himself internally

Mr. Grey holds Ava and said to sit down at the dining table...Sarah looks nervous, she never sits on the dining table before with them..as she was not allowed too and Theo can clearly see her struggle when he saw Sarah eyes looking for his permission..he nodes to her and then she was tension free..she sit down and in front of her was Roma who was glaring at her like she will kill her in any minute.

Theo sit down next down Sarah and told her shaking hand 'Calm down..don't react I don't want dad to get suspicious just behave like a good young mother..for your owner this grand dinner is arranged, so enjoy now because this will never happen again' He said coldly

Theo saw Sarah lips to wobble and tears were gathering but she just nodes softly. At the dinner table, everyone was exceptionally quiet and looking awkwardly at food. Mr grey can feel the tensions and was disturbed by it. Then he says 'why everyone is so quite'?

Everyone looks at Theo to say something ..Theo gives a fake smile 'Nothing dad... I think everyone is overwhelmed and tired too. You tell us are you going to stay longer this time?"
