I instinctively pulled back and closed my eyes. I dared not look him in the eye anymore. He reached out his hand to hold my chin and forced me to look at him. He then spoke up in a cold tone, “How dare you ask me that, you coldhearted woman?!” “...It wasn’t me.” I did not dare to struggle against him despite my face hurt from the way he held me. Cindy Reed was hurt. He would eventually ask me to pay for it. “How dare you deny what you’ve done? Wanda Lane, did you think that I wouldn’t dare to get a divorce just because you have that box?” He asked mockingly. His voice was icy cold. I was stunned. Theo found out about it so soon. “I didn’t smash the vase against her head. I didn’t splash her with water either.” Although there was no need for me to explain myself, I still felt like telling him everything. I felt slightly bitter as I told him, “I don’t want to open the box that grandmother gave me, nor will I use it to keep our marriage. Theo Grant, I promise you that we wi

It was not easy for Theo to manage Grant Corporation. For the sake of Theo, I got up and said, “Fine, Miss Reed. What would you like to eat? I’ll buy them for you.” Cindy listed down a bunch of dishes straight away. I frowned and refrained from saying anything. “Please stay for lunch too. I’ll be back soon,” I told Mason, who was seated on the sofa. He had helped to change the dressing for my wound earlier. I should thank him. Because of my hand injury, I did not buy any ingredients to cook. Instead, I packed dishes from a few renowned restaurants in the city. It was almost afternoon when I returned home. As I entered the gate, I heard conversations coming from the garden. Theo and Mason were talking. It took more than two hours to return home from the city. I did not expect Theo to come home. “Her hand is slightly inflamed. You should not have gotten her to take care of Cindy,” Mason said. I could not help myself from turning around and looking into the garden.

Although I was frightened to death, I was still the one at fault. I suppressed the fear in me and slowly opened the car door. The Tibetan Mastiff, which rushed out just now, was lying motionlessly under my car tire. The pool of crimson blood stood out clearly among the greenery of the woods.I closed my eyes in shock. After some time, I managed to calm myself down. “Tell me, what are you going to do about this?” The man crossed his arms and stared at me coldly. I did not dare to look into his frightening eyes. I lowered my head and said, “I am sorry, I didn't mean to do this. I can compensate you.” “Since you have a good attitude, I will let you go easy. Pay me ten thousand bucks in cash, or else…” The man was biting on a piece of reed between his teeth. He gave me a glance from head to toe with a smirk on his face. I sensed the imminent danger and immediately said, “No problem. I will give it to you.” At a time like this, I would gladly give him even a hundred thousand b

“No, I will do it.” I gritted my teeth as I got out of the car. I hurried over to the large patch of grass in front of the villa.The villa was huge. The grass area alone was about 300 square meters. It would usually take two or three workers to clear out the weeds, but now he wanted me to do it alone with my bare hands.I knew he was trying to torment me.After all, I was in the wrong. After pausing for a while, I squatted down and started working.Theo sat in the car and did not get down. He stared at me as I worked. There was no emotion on his gloomy face.After a long while, he floored the accelerator and drove off, leaving a trail of exhaust gas behind.Watching him leave, I stood up and let out a long sigh of relief. I did not sleep last night, and my back was hurting so much that I could not stand straight.I remembered I had not had breakfast yet either. Regretfully, I said to the child in my belly. “Baby, I'm so sorry. I'm not qualified to be a mother. I have only made

I had calmed down. I laid on the bed and looked at them coldly. I had a whirlwind of emotions in my heart. I did not know if it was because I was feeling sad or because I was pitiful.Theo looked at me. His eyes were still cold. He embraced Cindy and gently patted her back to comfort her. “Be good and stop crying.”“Theowy, you do not want Wanda's child, right?” Cindy grabbed his shirt and asked desperately.My heart clenched as I looked at him nervously, also waiting for his answer.However, he did not even look at me and only focused on Cindy. He wiped her tears away and remained silent.Cindy cried even harder, almost losing her voice. She choked and said, "Theowy, you promised my parents that you would take care of me for the rest of my life. They have left me behind, and now you want to leave me too?"“Cindy, do not say such nonsense. I never said that I do not care about you.” Theo frowned, but his tone remained gentle.“But if she gives birth to this child, you will not g
