Chapter 16


    At this time, the sky was already bright. Many of the vigers came over to see what happened. I dared


    not go down and hid in the car.


    Fortunately, Theo''s car arrived shortly after.


    Before the car even came to a stop, he jumped off and walked over to my car with just a few steps.


    The cold aura exuded from his tall figure made people standing around feel invisible pressure.


    The surrounding vigers immediately became quiet and just stared at him with fear.


    Theo ignored them and opened my car door. He looked at me coldly before asking, “What happened?”


    “I... I ran over a Tibetan Mastiff by ident. I need to pay for it, and they want me to pay in cash.” I


    lowered my head and spoke very timidly.


    The expression on his face was cold, and his eyes were darkened. He stared at me in disbelief for a


    long time before he closed the car door and went to negotiate with the man.


    He should be furious, right? I had caused him toe to such a remote ce this early in the morning


    only to deal with such a trivial matter.


    Watching his receding tall and refined figure and turning around to look at the vigers standing


    around, I felt the entire scene was out of ce. Theo, the beautiful art of heaven should not appear in


    such a lowly ce.


    I could not help myself but worry. Theo would surely settle this score with me.


    Soon, he gave the money to the viger, and the crowd around him dispersed. He walked over again


    and looked at me coldly. His gaze was deep and dark, and it was impossible to read his emotions at all.


    He said nonchntly, “Get out of the car.”


    I obediently got out of the car and followed behind him. He turned to the driver standing far away and


    said, “Drive this car back.”


    Then, he opened his car door and got into the driver''s seat. Without any instructions from Theo, I did


    not dare get into the car. I just stood there with my head lowered.


    “Do you need any personal invitation?” His voice sounded impatient.


    I quickly opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.


    In the car, I could feel a sensation of coldness rising from my feet, and I nced over from the side. He


    was releasing an icy cold air with a gloomy expression and anger in his eyes.


    I sped my hands together and waited for him tosh out in anger.


    He did not say a word until the car pulled into the vi. Hepletely ignored me.


    After some thought, I exined, “I thought you were still sleeping after drinking so much. That is why I


    called Doctor Mason. Do not misunderstand, I am not in a rtionship with him.”


    Even though I knew he would not want to hear my exnation, and he probably would not care, I still


    spoke up.


    He stopped the car and turned to look at me with narrowed eyes. After a long period, he said in a deep


    voice filled with contempt, “Misunderstand? Do not think so highly of yourself. Who do you think you


    are? Who do you think Mason is? Why would he even like you?”


    His words were sarcastic, and his face was full of mockery. I was so embarrassed that I could not say


    anything for a long time.


    It was indeed my overthinking. How could Theo possibly misunderstand? Not to mention, Mason was


    one of his good friends. Considering their rtionship, Mason would not even consider me a friend.


    To Theo and his friends, I was as lowly as weeds under their feet. If it was not for Grandmother''s


    affection toward me, I would not have any right to look them in the eyes.


    Seeing that I was silent, Theo nced at me and said indifferently, “Do you admit your mistake?”


    “I was wrong. I am sorry,” I said quickly.


    “What are you sorry for?” he asked.


    “I should not have driven out in the middle of the night,” I said honestly.


    “Wanda… You are really…” He suddenly raised his voice and red at me as if he wanted to eat me


    whole.

    I did not know what I had said to offend him again. I was so scared that I was trembling all over and


    curled myself into a ball.


    “Forget about it. You do not work today. You are being punished for doing something wrong. Your


    punishment is to clear weeds in the garden with your bare hands.” He red at me again and turned


    his head to ignore me.


    His punishment was really... odd.


    Although I knew that he would not let me off easily for driving far away early in the morning, I did not


    expect him to give such a childish punishment.


    “You are not willing?” After a while, when he saw that I did not say anything, he turned around and


    squinted at me.
