Chapter 643


    I nodded. When I looked down at my right ankle, I saw that my ankle was also swollen.


    "Do you know Theo?" He suddenly asked halfway through the journey.


    I was stunned. "Do I look like someone who knows a big shot like that?"


    He pursed his lips and said very seriously, "Yes."

    After a pause, he said again, "He was staring at you earlier, and the way he looked at you didn''t


    seem right."


    I lowered my gaze and said with a smile, "It might be because I''m so attractive."


    Fred was amused by me. "You really dare to say it."


    When I got home, I put on the band-aid that I bought and theny on the sofa to take a rest.


    I did not expect that I would fall asleep but I soon heard a knock on the door and woke up from my


    dream.


    My face felt slightly itchy, and I learned that there were tear streaks on my face when I raised my


    hand t o touch it.


    I had not cried for a long time. It had also been a long


    while since I dreamed of that child.


    I held that child in my dream again, and the touch felt so real.


    The person outside the door was still knocking. I wiped the tears away from my face and got up to


    open the door.


    When I opened it, I was stunned when I saw the person standing outside the door.


    Theo''s upright posture was facing the light, and there was no smile on his face. His dark gaze was


    as deep and clear as ever.


    His Adam''s apple bobbed when he saw me. There were unspeakableplex emotions in his


    gaze.


    Before I could say anything, he stepped over and my hand was immediately held by him.


    Heughed at himself and said, "If you want me to pretend that I don''t know you, I really can''t do it."


    After a pause, he continued, "Three years have passed. Three years! I still can''t forget about you.


    You still appear in my dreams almost every day. My feelings for you have not diminished over time."


    He had changed.


    In the past, he would not say all these sweet and romantic words. He hated doing such things.


    I sighed lightly and withdrew my hand from his big palm. "President Grant, let’s sit down and talk."


    If it were three years ago, I would definitely have gotten emotional if he said these words to me.


    However, now I just wanted him to disappear from me or even ridicule him.


    However, a long time had passed and I could face him calmly.


    Three years of an unremarkable life was enough to let a lot of people feel relieved.


    He stared at me for a long time before going to sit down on the sofa. I went to the kitchen to wash


    the fruits and served them on the coffee table as if he was a guest. He was smiling when I looked at


    him, and there was a sense of alienation. "These are home-grown apples. They’re better than those


    sold outside. You can try them."


    He looked at me with a warm gaze.


    I lowered my eyes.


    After a while, he took an apple from the fruit te and took a bite.


    "It''s indeed delicious," hemented.


    I smiled. "If you like it, I''ll get you some to bring back when you leave."


    At this time, there was a knock on the door. I thought that Fred must have returned after picking up


    the children so I got up and went to open the door.


    When Fred came in, he saw Theo sitting on the sofa and he was stunned for a moment.
