I grabbed my hair in frustration and said, "Theo Grant, can you please stop overthinking? Can you not think about me and Matthew that way? I'm just helping him since he's going through a hard time right now. How can I turn a blind eye to his situation when he has helped me so much?"
Theo pursed his lips and insisted, saying, "There are countless ways to repay him. I don't care as long as you don't give him your companionship. What will happen to me if you two start having feelings for each other?"
I realized I could no longer get my words through his head, so I got up and headed toward the bathroom.
He was also feeling frustrated, so he did not continue t o pester me with his nonsense.
As soon as I got out of the bathroom, I thought that Theo might have gone to his study to sulk. Even so, I went back to the bathroom to dry my hair without having much concern about him.
I began feeling a little drowsy halfway through drying my hair, so I turned off the hairdryer and prepared to leave the bathroom.
I did not notice the drops of water on the floor from
when I left the bathroom earlier with still dripping wet hair. As a result, I slipped and fell.
It was only when I felt a sharp pang on my ankle that I realized I had twisted it. It was a disaster.
I touched my ankle and gasped in pain.
Theo came in and noticed that I was sitting on the floor. His complexion changed after he noticed that I had a swollen ankle. "Are you dumb?”
I glared at him. "You're dumb! Your family is dumb!"
He replied without any mercy, "Including you."
"You!" I exclaimed while feeling wronged.
He carried me up and said, "How did you manage to fall after taking a shower? I think you shouldn't take care of people. You're too stupid for that."
I was so angry to the point that I wanted to bite his head off after hearing his sarcastic words. "It was an accident. Nobody is perfect. Are you having fun putting hidden meanings into your words?"
Theo snorted coldly. "I'm not insinuating anything. You're probably just feeling guilty.”
"Theo Grant, were you an *sshole in your past life too?" I fought back as I gritted my teeth.
