He Gave Her My Eyes A Story of Final Sight novel Chapter 175

Garry?

What was he doing here?

Garry came to a stop right next to Lawrence. So he was here for Lawrence. Wait, did that mean he was the client Lawrence had been talking about?

Garry barely glanced at Theresia before turning his attention to Lawrence. His eyes were dark and hard to read.

“Lawrence. So this is where you’ve been hiding.” As he spoke, his gaze flicked back to Theresia. “Aren’t you going to introduce me?”

Lawrence slipped his hands into his pockets. Any time something involved Theresia, he just couldn’t stop himself from grinning. “This is my wife,” he said, like it was the most natural thing in the world.

Garry raised his eyebrows and looked Theresia up and down, his expression impossible to interpret. “Your wife? Mrs. Lee?”

Theresia’s face immediately soured. Her patience had already worn thin, and her voice was sharp. “I have nothing to do with Lawrence. I am not his wife.”

Garry looked even more interested now, but the iciness in his eyes was impossible to miss, no matter how much he tried to hide it with a smile. “Lawrence, it sounds like this beautiful lady doesn’t agree with you. Maybe you’re just imagining things.”

For some reason, Lawrence could sense a cold tension in the air, and he watched Garry carefully. “She really is my wife. We’re just going through a rough patch. I haven’t managed to win her over yet, that’s all.”

Garry didn’t miss a beat. “Oh, really? So what about that nurse you were seen with before? The one who looks a lot like her. Was she your mistress?”

Lawrence’s whole face tightened. His brows furrowed, and his lips pressed together until they were nothing but a thin line.

He clenched his jaw. “Garry, you have to be kidding. That woman was just someone for crisis management. My wife is the only woman I have.”

He finally turned and walked away.

Once the two men were gone, Helena’s curiosity kicked into overdrive. She grabbed Theresia’s arm. “Don’t you and Garry know each other?”

Theresia took a drink, barely paying attention. “You said it yourself. We know each other, but we’re not close. Basically strangers.”

Hanson was impressed. “That’s some flawless logic. I’m convinced.”

Theresia watched Garry’s back as he walked away, lost in thought. She knew Garry and Lawrence had it out for each other, but this time, she didn’t pick up on anything strange. Still, Garry knew way too much about her. If he let even a little bit slip to Lawrence, everything she’d worked for would go up in smoke.

Anxious, she poured herself another drink and knocked it back in one go, not even tasting it.
