"Theo Grant..." I spoke through gritted teeth, "Are you sure you want to interrupt me from my work, which will cause me to stay overtime?"
Theo cocked his eyebrows. "I'm here accompanying you anyway, so even if we have to spend the night here, it's perfectly fine with me."
F*ck...
Could anyone come and chase this man out, please?
I did not want to entertain him any longer, so I focused on my work.
Theo finally stopped disturbing me.
After I was done with one document, I looked up and glanced at him just to meet his gaze straight-on. I was stunned. "You've been staring at me?"
Was he crazy? How could he be staring at me the entire time while not doing anything else?
Theo nodded. "I can only be at peace if I keep staring a t you."
I pursed my lips.
I knew what he was worried about. After a few seconds of silence, I said faintly, "Bring me to the hospital after a few days, then."
Theo was taken aback. He got up and walked toward me. "Treatment will take a long time. Are you sure about this?"
I nodded.
"Good girl." He leaned and kissed me. After the kiss, h e chuckled. "I'll be right here accompanying you."
When it was lunchtime, I wanted to order takeaway but Theo insisted that we go down to the canteen.
I tried to convince him otherwise, but I lost the battle.
I was puzzled. Theo was never the kind who would go t o the canteen for meals, so why did he suddenly think of going to the canteen to eat? However, when someone asked me about my relationship with him, Theo haughtily answered, "We're husband and wife." That was when I knew why he insisted.
"Are you a kid, Theo Grant?" I gnashed my teeth.
Theo smirked. "I'll let you know tonight if I'm a kid or not."
