Chapter 41

I was shocked and quickly turned on the light. It was Theo. Dressed in black, he was seated quietly by the bed, looking at me without any expression on his face.

Why did this man always like to scare me by sitting on the edge of the bed like this? I patted my chest, feeling relieved. "You scared me."

“You did not do anything wrong. What is there to be afraid of?” He said calmly.

“People could really scare other people to death, don't you know that?” I rolled my eyes at him and sat up straight.

I had just woken up with sleepy eyes, and my hair messy. I had not changed out of my nightgown yet. I rarely appeared like this in front of Theo, so I felt a little uncomfortable and quickly got up to change.

His eyes never left me.

I looked down and realized that two of the buttons on my nightgown had come undone.

“Ah!” I cried out in alarm. I covered my chest with both hands and hastily fastened the buttons.

“Did the doctor say how many days you will have to wait?” Theo suddenly asked.
