However, Theresa didn't look at him, she just supported her chin with one hand indifferently, “I'm not familiar with him.”
That one sentence made a clear line between their worlds.
Armand felt sad at heart but he could still hold it on the surface as he smiled, “Are we familiar strangers?”
Theresa also smiled as she asked him back, “Have we ever been familiar? Why can't I remember?”
In comparison to Theresa's indifference, Armand couldn't be as indifferent as her, his lips were tightly pursed as he pulled the chair and sat down, “If hurting me can make you happy, just hurt me.”
“You're not worth it for me to hurt, you're nothing to me, I won't use any bit of feelings on you, so there's not even hatred, I just find people like you annoying.”
When saying that, the hand that Theresa put below the table was tightly clenching, her nails nearly sunk into her palm, only pain could make her keep calm.
Actually, she really wanted to slap him several times.
When Dolores took the milk and went out, she coincidentally saw her little movement... Even if she stayed calm, her body's little movements were clearly saying that she wasn't as calm as she looked on the outside.
If she really had no feelings towards Armand, how could she act like that?
What was actually hidden in her heart? If she could really let it go, why should she hurt others and herself?
She took a deep breath, acting like she didn't see anything, and then she asked when she poured milk into Armand's glass, “Is Mrs. Leslie okay?”
She found a topic on purpose, trying to relieve the atmosphere.
“She needs to be taken care of.” she couldn't take care of herself anymore, the only change was she could talk, she couldn't even talk before.
Dolores nodded, “Take good care of her.”
Armand nodded, “I will, she's my only relative, I'll definitely take good care of her.”
Matthew walked in, pulled the main chair and sat down, he then glanced at Armand but he didn't say anything.
Armand smiled, “Next time I'll call Boyce and won't disturb you anymore.”
Matthew lifted the fresh milk that Dolores poured for him and glanced indifferently at him, by then he felt that Armand deliberately came there.
Well, Theresa was there, it would be strange if he didn't use all possible means to go there.
Matthew didn't expose him either, he just asked, “Were you drunk yesterday?”
Armand was stunned, he did drink a lot but his mind was still clear, indeed, he deliberately let the waiter call Matthew's cellphone number.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence... After all, there were so many numbers in his cellphone, how could the waiter call Matthew?
“Could that be a fake?” Armand wouldn't admit it.
Matthew glanced at him meaningfully, “As long as you know it clearly at heart.”, he had no time to think about his problem, he stretched his hand out, took the egg on the plate, peeled it, and handed it to Amanda, “Do you want to study drawing?”
Amanda immediately nodded, “I want to.”
She was really interested in that, seeing that her drawing was the same as the real one, she would feel very accomplished.
“Today I'll take you to someone who specializes in drawing, will you go?”
“Really?” Amanda didn't dare to believe it.
He even asked if she would go or not, she was simply overwhelmed by his unexpected offer, Matthew was a very busy man, how could he have time to take her there?
“Of course.” Matthew already called Abbott saying that he wasn't going to the company that day, he also told him not to contact him if there was nothing extremely important.
He was going to accompany his children that day.
