Chapter 611


    I nodded. My face felt a little dry. I did not bring the basic skincare creams with me. He raised his


    eyebrow with a knowing look on his face and motioned at the things on the bedside table.


    I looked sideways and saw a set of cosmetics that had been ced there some time ago, all of


    which were from the usual brands I used.


    I could not help but look back at him. "You-"


    ? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    "Come and eat when you’re done," he said, cutting me off.


    This man was so chauvinistic that he refused to even give me the opportunity to voice out my


    appreciation. How irritating.


    I did not have much appetite for French cuisine, and when Theo saw me staring nkly at the


    steak, he seemed to know what I was thinking about.


    He said, "There’s some street food around here. Just have some, then get some rest. We''ll go get


    some street food tonight."


    I nodded and looked at him, saying, "Don’t you need to work? Do you have time to apany


    me?"


    He smiled faintly, took the steak from me, and cut it. H e handed me the cut steak and said, "Zedd


    will handle i


    t."


    After eating, I still felt a little tired and simplyy down on the bed to use my phone.


    I continued reading the book I did not finish reading o n the ne. Theo was doing work on his


    laptop.


    "Is the book good?" Without realizing it, he was already lying down beside me.


    Stunned, I looked back at him and he pulled me into his arms, kissing me on the cheek again.


    I noticed that this guy seemed especially fond of kissing me.


    "It''s okay."


    I put the book aside and looked at him, saying, "Didn''t Masone along with you on this business


    trip?"


    He nodded. "Someone needs to stay back at thepany."


    I nodded and hesitated for a moment. "Did Sam Grant and his wife have a daughterst time?"


    He frowned and looked at me with a dark gaze. "Who told you that?"


    "No one, I was just asking." Frankly speaking, I did not want to pry much into his past, but I had


    questions in my heart and could not help but ask.


    He took me into his arms, his ck pupils a little deep. "Don''t ask about the past anymore."


    I nodded and got up, walking into the bathroom.


    Why was he never willing to talk to me about Mason and his past? He seemed unconcerned but


    also very concerned at the same time.


    When I came out of the bathroom, he was on the balcony talking on the phone. His expression was


    a little dark and sullen. I was unsure if it was because of work matters.


    Seeing that I hade out, he said a few words before hanging up the phone. He walked toward


    me and pulled me into his arms.


    "I may not be able to go shopping with you anymoreter. There''s a signing event over at the


    company. Do you want toe with me?"
