Love me or leave me (Rebecca and Theodore) novel Chapter 275

"Hayden is not Lily and Kev's biological father, so he won't treat them well, Rebecca. Lily and Kev are my biological children, and I... I will definitely be good to them. I promise to be a responsible father from now on," Theodore said anxiously.

Upon hearing this, Debra rolled her eyes. It was not out of surprise but rather a reaction to the sheer audacity of Theodore's words, reminiscent of a similar situation in the past. They had heard such shameless declarations before, notably from Hayden's ex-wife, Queenie. To hear it now from Theodore seemed almost laughable. Suddenly, Debra looked at Theodore and asked, "Theodore, are you single right now? Because I actually think there is someone who would be perfect for you."

Theodore was bewildered upon hearing this. He looked at Debra with confusion, not understanding why she had shifted the conversation so abruptly. Not just him, but everyone in the Carter Villa living room - Patrick, Adrian, Bryce, Charlie, Isabella, and Carly - were all stunned by the sudden change in topic.

"Do you know Queenie? Your lines just now are identical to hers. From a certain perspective, I think you two are quite compatible. If you are single, you should try pursuing Queenie. I think you would get along great," said Debra as she looked seriously at Theodore. He fell silent, unable to muster a response.

"Ha!" Charlie could not help but burst into laughter. He glanced at Debra, admiration written clearly in his eyes. 'When it comes to roasting someone, no one can beat my mom,' Charlie thought to himself. Then, he glanced at Theodore again and suddenly felt a bit of sympathy. Theodore would not stand a chance when it came to arguing with Debra.

But after the laughter, the most important thing was still the matter at hand. Becky had endured so much hardship and finally met a good person, allowing her to start a new life. The Carter family certainly did not want Theodore's entanglement to ruin Becky's current happiness.

"Theodore, I won't waste words on pleasantries. I will be straight with you. We did not give you a hard time before because we were worried Becky might still have feelings for you. If she saw you mistreated by the Carter family, she might feel sorry for you," Patrick said calmly, his voice firm and resolute.

The worst part was that the Carter family would go all out against the Edwards family, and Theodore, unable to win, would shamelessly return to Becky to admit his mistakes and seek reconciliation. In the end, Becky might relent, get back together with this scumbag, and end up in an on-again, off-again, entangled relationship.

Patrick continued, "Luckily, you did not disappoint us. You have completely destroyed any hope Becky had for you. Now, there's no place for you in her heart, so we are no longer concerned. We have collected all the evidence of the things you have done. If you don't believe it, I can prepare a copy for you. For the rest of your life, you can either stay away from Becky and live your own life or continue to bother Becky and end up in jail. It is up to you. I have said all I needed to say. Think it over."

Patrick then stood up and instructed, "Bryce, show him out."

As soon as those words were spoken, everyone understood Patrick was asking Theodore to leave. The Carter family did not welcome him. Theodore's expression darkened with anger, and he could not help but explain, "I... I did not mean to bother Rebecca. I just want to take care of Lillian and Kevin. They are my children, and I have an obligation to raise them."
