Instantly, the temperature inside the room dropped. Dave’s statement has just managed to chase off the lively atmosphere.

The Butler looked shocked.

Grandpa appeared suspicious,

And Theo… Grief mixed with helplessness settled in his eyes. He replied, “I don’t like Jessica. We’re not a couple.”

“It’s like saying I’m not your son, Theo. Wasn’t that evil woman living with you?” Dave balled his tiny fists. “You like her more than my Mommy. You’re just trying to use my Mommy– well, you won’t succeed under my watch!”

“Oh, Baby…” I held him close. “He’s your Daddy, please be nice. He’s right. He’s no longer with Jessica.”

“But, Mommy,” Dave grumbled. “He stalked us in Geneva, and also sent you to jail. He’s a bad guy.”

I should have seen this coming.

I should have known that it wouldn’t be easy to make him side with us.

“Your Daddy did that because he wants us to come with him.” I gently ran my fingers through his hair. “About sending me to jail, he has already apologized. He didn’t mean

  • Divorced To Steal His Heart    252. Too Calm

    Theo’s POVI’m not surprised by her response. The more I pull, the faster she runs. When will this end? When will she finally give in? “Olivia, I’ll do whatever it takes to prove my sincerity. Please give me a chance.”She didn’t blink, her expression blank and cold. Wish I could reverse time back to some minutes ago when Dave was still here. Wish I could see the softness in her eyes once more. “It doesn’t matter whether you’re sincere or not. Mr. Wellington, I can’t force myself to like you.” Her words were like needles pricking at my heart. The pain in my arm was nothing in comparison. Does she hate me this much?This mission will end, and we’ll soon return to being strangers. That’s not what I want. I don’t want to fall back into the same situation again. Winning her heart is important, as is Grandpa’s approval. She picked up her bag and stood up.“Where are you going?”“Home.”“Can you stay a bit longer?” I reached out. If only my movement weren’t restricted, I would have g

    I sat up, my mood taking a nosedive.Oh, he’s right. With Theo being hospitalized, our reunion will seem suspicious if his grandfather doesn’t find me in the hospital with him.Quickly, I entered the bedroom and changed into something nice. In just a few minutes, I was on the way back to the hospital, hoping his grandfather didn’t get there before me. The awkwardness could wait. The sooner we get this mission over with, the better. And I won’t have to see Theo ever again. When I arrived, the number of the bodyguards outside the ward didn’t increase, which meant his grandfather wasn’t here yet. What a relief!I entered the ward and found Theo resting on the bed, wide awake. His eyes, devoid of any emotion, suddenly lit up, his lips pulling into a smile. “You came.”I pursed my lips and sat on the chair. “What did you expect? This mission is more important to me than anything.”His eyes dimmed, gloom momentarily flashing in them. I glanced away, staring at my palms instead. Urgh!

    Am I not the bad person?I’d given him hope before crushing it. I’d been too hesitant. If I hadn’t rejected his kiss that evening, Ethan probably would still be here.Bonnie pulled me to the living room and made me sit on the couch. She sat beside me, holding my hands. “You stood up to your bullies in high school. When that heartless Theo broke your heart, you left without turning back, even though you’d loved him your entire life. You single-handedly raised a strong and intelligent boy while excelling in your career. Olivia, you’re the strongest person I know. Don’t waste your tears on a dude who can’t fight for your love.”I sniffled, using the back of my hand to wipe my tears.Right!I’d been broken once, more than this, and I managed to come out of it. The heartbreak caused by Theo traumatized me. I almost gave up everything until I realized I was pregnant. Dave’s presence was like my second chance in life. Because of him, I’d been strong and pushed through every challenge. I c

    “Uhm, it’s actually an accident,” I replied. “But not mine… Someone got into an accident. I had to rush him to the hospital.”Bonnie gave me a pointed look. “How many times do I have to tell you that you’re a bad liar, Olivia?” She snickered. “How did you get involved with the person who had an accident when you rarely go out? Spill the truth, now!”I shook my head, helpless.Bonnie won’t give up on interrogating me until she’s satisfied. But honestly, I can’t tell her about Theo yet. She won’t only be disappointed, but also mad. Regardless of my reason, Bonnie might still think I’m making the wrong decision, which to some extent is true.“Urgh! This is itchy.” I scratched my shoulder with the dry blood. “I should get rid of it–”“Wait.” Bonnie held me down as I stood up. “Stop trying to avoid the topic. Where did you get this dress, by the way? You never like designer wear, and this one screams extravagance.”Great!I really shouldn’t have worn this dress that Theo bought. I never b

    For a split second, her eyes flashed with horror. She broke eye contact, knelt, and picked up the folder from the floor, her hand trembling. And then she turned around and hurried away.That was strange. What’s wrong with her?But I soon forgot Cora’s weird behaviour the moment they wheeled Theo out of the emergency room. Due to the medication's effect, he was asleep now. In the VIP Ward, I sat on the chair beside his bed, unable to tear my gaze off his bandaged arm. This is a fatal accident.How long is it gonna take for him to heal? How’s this not going to hinder our mission?Urgh! Should I be thinking about the mission now? We’ve already made some progress; besides, his well-being comes first. I blew out a sigh, wishing I could reverse time. I would have run somewhere else instead of the bathroom. I wouldn’t have locked the door. “Mr. Wellington is out of danger now, Ma’am…” One of the bodyguards came inside. “How about you go home and change? We will look after him.”Right. I
