I turned and grabbed a tissue to wipe my hands after I finished washing them. A smile appeared on my face. So, that was why she was angry.
"Is it important to you whether we’re happy or not? What's important to you is that Zedd lost his temper because of this, isn’t it?”
I knew it sounded like a riddle, but she would have no problem understanding it.
The fact that Zedd had lost his temper meant that deep down, he still cared about Cindy, and that was the last thing Nadia wanted to see. Thus, that was also why she had lost her temper.
"You don't have to be angry if you don't want to. TH give you a piece of advice,” I said as I walked forth and stared straight ahead.
"You have to figure out what it is that you want." I was relieved she did not follow me when I left the bathroom.
When I returned to my seat, I realized the seat opposite Theo’s was empty. Cindy had left without me realizing.
"Come sit down and rest," Theo said as he reached out without needing me to ask.
"Where's Cindy?" I asked.
"She said she has to leave first because other matters require her attention.”
I pouted.
Theo continued talking, "You can’t treat her like a kid and have her in front of you forever, can you?"
Theo placed a piece of sushi on my plate as he spoke. To be honest, those were not my intentions. I merely wanted Cindy to be here so I could have an excuse to get Theo to leave work and have lunch on time.
However, now that Cindy was gone, my excuse had vanished.
"You should go home and rest after lunch. I've still got a lot of work left to do. You won't be able to rest well sitting in my office. It’ll distract me too."
Theo sounded as if he was grumbling when he finished his last sentence. He was getting better at this.
