Chapter 439


    I burst out in maniacalughter. "It wouldn''t be a problem if you agree."


    This man in front of me did not even ask why I went t o the apartment. How unreasonable of him to


    lose his temper without asking what had happened!


    Theo got so angry that he mmed his palm against the door hard. The sound was extremely loud


    and terrifying. "Wanda Lane, do you really think so? Do you really want to be with him?"


    Ultimately, I could not stand his temper anymore. Thus, I lifted my hands and pushed him on his


    chest." Theo Grant, you said you might not be returning tonight. If I truly wanted to be with him, why


    did Ie back in the heavy rain in the middle of the night? When ites to Matthew Zimmer, you


    alwayssh out at me without even asking for the details.


    You''re just being unreasonable.”


    He took a deep breath. I could see the veins bulging on his forehead. "Okay, then tell me why you


    stayed until sote beforeing back."


    The corners of my lips twitched as I said, "Look, I’m tired from standing. Let me sit down and I''ll


    exin everything to you."


    Theo suppressed his anger and stepped aside.


    I plopped down onto the bed and looked at the empty ss on the bedside table. "I''m thirsty."


    "I''ll get you a ss of water," he said with gritted teeth.


    I supposed he must be irked to his limits, having to give in when he was the one who was upset.


    In an instant, my mood was lifted. When he returned with the ss of water, I said calmly, "Promise


    me that you''ll never lose your temper like that again until you ask for the details."


    "Wanda Lane!" He ground his teeth together. "Know your limits!"


    I shrugged. "I won’t speak, then."


    Anyway, there was nothing he could do to me if I chose to keep my lips sealed. The best he could


    do was vex himself to death.


    He stared intently at me with his jet-ck eyes. There were obvious streaks of resentment in his


    expression. "Wanda, if you still choose to keep silent, I''ll torture you tonight even if you’re mad."


    "You!" My eyes widened. "Bastard!"


    He let out a cold snort, as though he was admitting to his despicable nature. He said, "What can


    you do to m e?"


    I took a deep breath and yielded. "I''ll tell you about it." With that, he straightened his back, eager to


    hear what I had to say.


    As soon as I had shbacks of Nancy leaping off the building, I shuddered. "I presume you''ve met


    Matthew’s mother before. She... She jumped off the rooftop of Zimmer Corporations. I''m sure you


    can understand that this would be a huge blow to him. He became emotionally unstable, which is


    why I stayed b y his side in the hospital. After that, I was worried that he would wander about on his


    own once he regained more control. Therefore, I suggested he bring me to the apartment so that I


    could cook for him."


    After listening to my exnation, Theo’s expression grew grave. "Why did she have to make such a


    choice?"


    I sighed lightly. "Nancy found out that Marcus still loved her until his very death. There was another


    reason why he divorced her and married Quinn Grant back then. I guess she was so engulfed by


    guilt that she wanted to apologize to him in person."

    Theo sat by my side and ced an arm across my shoulder. "Okay, let''s stop thinking about it.


    Everyone has their own fate."


    He had only met Nancy once, so he was not too affected by her death.


    "Matthew is a grown-up and a man at that too. He does not need you by his side all the time. The


    one who needs yourpany is your husband-me," he


    said calmly.


    The childish words that fell from his lips seemed to seize my tongue.


    Seeing me speechless, he frowned and asked, "Is that clear?"
