Theodore's Regret 10. Drama
Alina My cheeks were hurting from all the smiling I had done for the night and decided to take a break. Gosh, this woman could hardly get tired, and unfortunately for Thoedore's sake, I had to put up with her. I had finally learned that the party was to acknowledge their 30th wedding anniversary, so I congratulated her. She introduced me to a number of her friends, including the wives of some important business men and influential people I gave no two shits about. Finally, she introduced me to her son, Nathan. So that was the person Mr.Summers had mentioned earlier. He was one fine man with an alluring personality, but by the way he was smirking all the time, and trying to flirt with me, even after knowing I was a freaking married woman, there was no doubt he was a playboy. Soft music started paying and the irritating man opened his mouth to speak. “Care to have this dance?” Fuck. I really wished Mrs. Summers had not left me alone with him! “No actually. I can't really dance. A
Theodore's Regret 11. Trouble
Theodore This freaking woman! First she had to look like an enchantress in that dress, capturing every single man's attention in the hall in no time. And then she has the fucking audacity to go to a corner with my biggest enemy? Yes she looked fucking gorgeous in the gown! So much that I momentarily forgot to even respond or remember that I was angry at her at the time of leaving. She left me breathless! But that didn't mean I would let her ruin my plans for the night. I needed this deal with Mr.Summers. It was my final step to beat Nathan in his own fucking games. And all I needed was for my wife to not mess it up. It wasn't that I was jealous of the attention other men were giving. It was for the sake of my reputation! The media loves to talk and to create scandals for no reason. I couldn't bear to find one; my wife and my biggest rival. It would be a mess. Why the hell did she have to leave the hall all alone and come to this secluded area in the first place? If not Nathan, t
Theodore's Regret 12. Emotions Mixed With Hunger
Alina I knew Theodore was an angry bull. But I didn't realize he would go to this extent. It was childish, but still I couldn't just stand and stare knowing his hand was bleeding. It was freaking dripping with blood. His knuckles were completely busted. I'm surprised he didn't even flinch as I applied the antiseptic to his skin. Instead, all this while, I just felt his hot gaze, pinning holes in my head. That had my stomach churning in nervousness. Knowing that you are being watched, every move you make is being thoroughly observed would send anybody's nerves on wrack. Especially if it included standing close to a raging bull like Theodore Maxwell. This man had serious anger issues. By now, I'm pretty sure he was deprived of mother's care and attention. Not to be judgemental or anything, but that's just my way of coping with people who are walking volcanoes. Yep, mommy surely didn't love him enough to turn him into a good boy. That's why his pants are always on fire. I suppressed a g
Theodore's Regret 13. Sick
Theodore“What the fuck is this? Do you have eyes or buttons? Who filled out these quotations? And this is how you proofread any work before handing it over to me?” Everything was a disaster! Don't know for what reason, I was more agitated than I had ever been. I was just barking orders, and my assistant was hot on his toes going back and forth with a number of documents I solved at him. “Get this shit fixed now!” “Yes Mr. Maxwell,” he said before running out of the office. Why the fuck was I feeling so hot? Taking off my coat, I tossed it on the couch before loosening my tie. Picking up the telephone, I dialed my assistant’s extension yet again. “Get me a coffee on your way back,” I didn't wait for him to respond back before harshly slamming it back. I squeezed my eyes shut, rubbing my forehead to release some tension. But did it help? Absolutely not. A few minutes later, I heard a knock on the door and told the person to come in, knowing it would be my assistant. “Here's your co
Theodore's Regret 14. Can you help me?
Alina“He's got a pretty high fever after not giving his body a rest for days. Not the first time this has happened. I suggest you kindly take care of his meals and try to get him to eat at least three times a day. He's been skipping meals a lot. Moreover, see that he takes proper rest and sleep. It would be good if Mr. Maxwell works from home for the next few days and tries not to strain himself too much,” I kept nodding at the doctor as Anders stood taking notes. “These are the medicines he should take for the next 48 hours, and he'll be better.” “Thank you Dr. Henry,” I nodded once again. “Anders, please get Dr. Henry dropped at his home safely, and get these medicines on the way back.” I handed him the prescription paper. “Of course, Miss Alina,” he nodded before moving out. Sighing, I turned to face the sleeping figure of Theodore. He looked so calm and peaceful. Exactly the opposite of what he is in real life; a hurricane. Should I wake him up now? I looked at the soup I had
Theodore's Regret 15. Work On Sunday
Alina “Can you help me?” “With what?” This time I turned around with a frowning face?” “To change?” I was sure I turned the shade of a cherry. My eyes widened at his response. He did not just say that, did he? “What?” “I mean, can you get my clothes from the wardrobe? I really don't feel well. You know, dizzy and lethargic,” right, calm down, Alina. Get your mind out of the gutter! He was just asking for help to get his clothes. Not actually help him change. “Sure,” I nodded. “Do you want anything specific?” “Anything comfortable would do. When you walk into the wardrobe, the left side is dedicated to all the sweats and t-shirts.” “Right,” I quickly moved to the sliding wardrobe and was amazed at how organized it was. I slid the door of the first cupboard to the left, making my cheeks burn instantly at the sight of his boxers. Oops, definitely not this one. Sliding the door open to the next one, I sighed in relief when I saw some trousers and shirts. I don't know why
Theodore's Regret 16. Under Arrest
TheodoreThat bastard did it again. He will never learn, will he? The very next morning, I kicked open his office door and entered like I owned it. I did l, in fact, own it. There was no doubt about it. He stood up from his desk after acknowledging my presence. “Ah, Theodore. What a surp-”“-It’s Mr. Maxwell for you!” My voice laced with venom, made him gulp at my words. “Haha, come on now. There should be no formalities now that you are my son-in-law. You didn't have to come all the way here. You should have called me instead.” He said awkwardly, filling in the silence. He moved out of his desk and approached me. “Come, have a seat. We can talk about whatever you want,” he pointed at the couch in his office. “Your friend is also welcome, don't worry,” he offered Daniel, who was standing in the doorway, looking bored at the whole scene. I smirked at him. He really wasn't doing that, was he? “Sure, let's talk.” I brushed past him, bumping into his shoulder purposely before taking lo
Theodore's Regret 17. The Gift
Theodore “Already got the news of your daddy dearest, I assume?” My voice came out harsher than intended. But I didn't care. Her father had already cost me a lot of time. And now, she'll be the one to carry out his plans. But I'll ruin her before she can even think about it. Alina abruptly jerked up from her position and met my eyes. “Excuse me ?” She quickly wiped the remaining tears on her face as she continued to look at me in confusion. So she didn't know about her father? Why was she crying? Oh cut it. It was just an act. But what if it's not? What if there is something that is worrying her? My heart fought. “Why are you crying?” “Why do you care?” Oh, so she's back to being her bratty self. She broke eye contact and looked back at the sky. I've had enough of this ignoring. I cannot be ignored! Bending down to her level, I held her chin and aggressively jerked her face to make her look at me. “Listen you-” I forgot what I was saying when I felt my heart pang at the sight bef
