Fated To Three, And I Broke Them All novel Chapter 188

Chapter 188: 188-Heart In Trouble

Theodore:

I had been sitting in my room, feeling as though something was missing.

It was as if there were a void in my life, as though I hadn’t done something I was supposed to have done days ago.

There was only one explanation.

Verity.

I hadn’t seen her in what felt like almost a week.

Ragnar had arrived, and because of that, it seemed I couldn’t see Verity anymore either.

She had probably gone home exhausted, alone to the house where she lived, where that fucking Dr Roman Wells was probably visiting her.

I was still shocked that she had started dating him.

I guessed it had happened after I decided to take a step back from her.

I had done it for Gigi.

But I suppose it had been an emotional mistake.

Gigi was incredibly important to me, but that didn’t mean I had to change my entire life because of her.

Especially when it came to Verity.

What a huge mistake I’d made.

That day, I had even called my ex and ended up having a one-night stand with her.

But it wasn’t the same.

After that, I realised all over again that no one could ever take Verity’s place.

Ragnar had decided to have dinner late.

By the time the food was ready and served, all the guests had already eaten and gone to bed.

That meant it was just Ragnar, Gigi, and me.

Gigi had arrived after everyone else had gone to bed so she could spend some time with Ragnar.

I finally came downstairs and joined my brother at the dinner table.

"I missed you, bro," I said as I sat down, my eyes searching for Jaguar.

Usually, whenever one of us returned from a long trip or an important project, we all had dinner together.

So Jaguar’s absence meant he had to be dealing with something important.

"You know, I had everything prepared for you in just one hour," Gigi purred, pulling her chair even closer to Ragnar.

He smiled at her before lowering his gaze.

Something about him had changed.

I wasn’t sure whether I was imagining it or simply reading him wrong.

Maybe he was just exhausted, but he looked like he was carrying some kind of burden.

Normally, he would shower Gigi with compliments because we all knew how sensitive she was.

This time, though, he only gave her a smile and said nothing.

Gigi began filling his plate with steak, pasta, and everything else she had asked the maids to prepare.

He quietly thanked her with a head nod.

The way Gigi looked at me made me realise she had noticed the same thing I had.

Then Ragnar picked up his knife and fork.

It was as though he had forgotten how to use them.

He struggled just to cut a piece of steak.

When he finally managed to take a bite, he chewed it as though it were the hardest thing in the world.

The whole situation felt wrong.

I was afraid Gigi would take it personally at any moment.

What was he doing?

I couldn’t make sense of his behaviour.
