Chapter 1022


    My mind wandered off for a moment, and I looked up a t the sky, suddenly realizing that time was


    passing too quickly. I felt as though I had just left Whaldorf City, but I had been away for more than


    two months now.


    I lowered my head and said in a hoarse voice, "I''m back in the country."


    I believed he must have been very worried when we met abroad. We were in such a dangerous


    situation and I was taken away by Mn before we had time to say a word to each other.


    There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.


    After a period of silence, he asked carefully, "I''lle t o you?"


    I pursed my lips. "Maybe not. I’m doing very well.


    Don''t worry."


    "I want to see you." The man''s voice sounded somewhat restrained. I could feel his emotions


    through the phone.


    I had not heard such words in a long time and could not help but feel a little touched.


    "Theo." I took a deep breath. "I''m really fine."


    Initially, I wanted to tell him to try and live his own life, but I knew that he would get mad if I said that.


    "I''m not fine at all."


    His voice sounded a little low with a hint of urgency and repressed emotions. "Wanda, there''s a


    banishment limit for everyone. You want to go out and be by yourself. I respect that and am willing


    to wait here for you, but you can''t keep driving me away like this. I refuse to face these lonely nights


    and rely solely on memories. I want to see you. I want to see you now."


    I was momentarily dazed. This was my first time hearing Theo confess his feelings for me without a


    single reservation.


    If he were in front of me now, I figured I would hold him tight and tell him that I missed him very


    much too.


    I lowered my head and held back my tears. "I''m really happy that you''re taking good care of


    Munchkin."


    I changed the subject, afraid that I would lose control o f myself and tell him how much I missed


    him. I was afraid that my presence would bring chaos to his life again.


    He should be living aplete life with his wife and son, but I did not have the ability to give him a


    complete marriage because I could not give him children. Leaving was the best option.


    "Wanda Lane!"

    Theo finally snapped. "Is this a punishment for me? If yes, then tell me what I''m supposed to do for


    you toe back?"


    I was stunned, suddenly not knowing what to say.


    Afraid to continue talking to him like this, I said in a somewhat panicked tone, "I still have things to


    do.


    Let''s talk some other time."


    Having said that, I took the phone away from my ear and quickly hung up the phone.


    When did I be a coward?


    Even I disliked myself!


    When I returned to Hommiton City, Jordan had returned from his business trip as well.


    He did not know that I had applied for a leave, so when I arrived at thepany and appeared in


    front o f him, he said a little angrily, "I need an exnation, Wanda.”


    His brows were tightly furrowed, and unhappiness was written all over his face.


    This was the first time I had ever seen him angry, and i t was quite rare.


    I sighed lightly, "Mr. Fredericks, I applied for-''''
