Theo carried me into the bathroom when we returned t o our bedroom.
"I can do it myself," I said in a cold voice when I saw h e was not going to leave the room after placing me in the bathtub.
Theo raised an eyebrow. "You really don’t need my help?"
"I think that your wanting to help is just a farce, and your actual motive is to satisfy yourself," I replied, a wooden expression on my face.
Theo pursed his lips together tightly, an unhappy expression on his face. "So, is that how you see me..."
"Yes." I interrupted him.
He had a cold expression on his face as he huffed coldly and turned to leave.
My body was freezing, which was why I stayed in the warm water for a little while longer and waited for my body temperature to rise before I got out.
Theo was not in the room, and I could not be bothered t o find out where he was. I instead simply burrowed under the covers after I finished blow-drying my hair.
I was feeling a little tired after the craziness of the day’s events.
Just as I was about to doze off, Theo came in with a bowl of turmeric ginger soup.
I could even smell the aroma of ginger from where I was lying. I frowned in displeasure. "I don’t want to drink that."
"You'll feel warmer after drinking it," Theo replied with a wry expression on his face.
“My body already feels warm." Displeasure was written all over my face as I said, "Quick, take it away."
Theo first placed the bowl on the bedside table before dragging me up into a sitting position on the bed." Come on. Just a sip will do if you genuinely do not want to drink it."
As he spoke, he brought the bowl over to my lips.
