I did not refuse. Theo was definitely different from before. Every bit of his life was scrutinized closely by the media. Keith was worried that I might run into trouble if I went out alone. After all, as Theo's woman, my safety was of utmost importance to him.
However, had he gone from being Theo's special assistant to my bodyguard?
When I looked at Cindy, she said with a smile, "It's been a really long time.”
I smiled slightly, feeling a little dazed. She had become more mature and charming. Now that she had a career of her own, she was no longer the ordinary woman who was only dependent on Theo.
I said, "It's been a while."
"Let’s go for a cup of coffee," she said. Her gaze fell on Keith as she continued, "There's a private cafe that's quite concealed."
I nodded. Before I got into the car, I saw several Leopards driving over not far away. They were parked neatly in front of Cindy's car. Immediately after that, several men who looked like bodyguards got out of the car.
Keith shielded me and said in a deep, calm voice
while looking at Cindy and me. "There's no need to go t o the cafe. Come in if you want to talk."
Cindy apparently did not expect the sudden appearance of these men. After hesitating for a moment, she narrowed her eyes and said, "It's fine. It’s just a few words. I'll leave after speaking."
After a pause, her lips curled into a sneer. “Looks like someone is more eager to see you than I am."
I pursed my lips and did not say a word.
She put her phone in her bag and crossed her arms. Looking at me, she asked, "Since you're divorced now and chose to leave back then, why did you come back?"
Those words were said in a blunt and calm enough manner. She had really changed a lot.
