In hindsight, Theo probably thought that Anathea wouldn't capture Gregory's fancy even if she got to know him. He only helped her in anticipation of a good show. In the past, she was very thankful for him. He helped in improving their relationship from that of strangers to acquaintances. However, when she got married to Gregory five years ago, Theo's attitude changed completely. He seemed to loathe her, frequently stirring up trouble. Even though Gregory knew of his behavior, he said nothing. His silence was an implicit consent for Theo to continue attacking Anathea. Because she loved Gregory, she smiled and let it slide. She didn't hold a grudge. After all, she wanted to keep up a good relationship as far as that was possible. However, Theo wouldn't give her a chance. He was dismissive and cold. Anathea had some pride at the end of the day, so she stopped sucking up to him. Ever since Natalie came home from overseas, Theo stopped paying her any mind. He spent all his days wi

Theo was into Anathea? No way! "If not, why are you so insistent on having her divorce Gregory?" Dylan joked, "I thought you wanted to take his place." "Absolutely not," said Theo immediately. "I just don't want Greg to continue getting involved with her! Also, now you know Greg's married her, aren't you pissed? Her dad made you like this. How could I let her off the hook so easily?" "That's enough, Theo," Adrian interjected. He continued, "You've already stated that it was her dad, Adam, who did it. Why do you have to blame it on others? You and Greg are too caught up in this." However, he could understand. Those who survived were the ones who suffered the most. "Making a woman's life hard is not behavior befitting a man." "I-I…" stuttered Theo. He shot back, "I didn't!"He was the one who'd given Anathea the ten million. It wasn't like he'd forced her into it. How had he made her life hard? Adrian smiled and said nothing. …When Anathea arrived in the spa room, Bris

Now that there was a successful case, it greatly boosted their confidence in the drug!"That's wonderful!" Anathea grabbed Fiona's hand, her eyes shimmering with tears of joy. "Mom, did you hear that?"This meant that Fiona's surgery was sure to be a success as well!At this thought, Anathea couldn't stop the tears from spilling down her cheeks."Silly girl, why are you crying?" Fiona reached out to wipe the tears clinging to Anathea's lashes, even as her own eyes became red-rimmed. "You've had it tough recently. It's all my fault for being such a burden to you…"If it weren't for her illness, perhaps Anathea could have had an easier life the past few years."Mom, don't say that." Anathea hugged Fiona tightly. "You're not a burden."Her mother wasn't a burden but a safe harbor for her wounded soul to return to.With a successful case as a precedent, she could already see hope for Fiona's recovery. Her heart pounded rapidly. It had been a long time since she had been this happy.

Thunder boomed as dark clouds gathered in the sky.The Rolls-Royce steadily drove into the parking garage.Cyrus immediately came forward to welcome Gregory home. "Mr. Sinclair."Gregory nodded at him, extending his long legs to get out of the car.After a few seconds of hesitation, Martin plucked up the courage to ask, "Mr. Sinclair, are we really leaving Mrs. Sinclair there? It looks like it's about to rain, and the weather forecast says that tonight's temperatures will be quite low…"Gregory thought back to the thin dress Anathea had been wearing, but his expression remained unchanged. "She can call a taxi."He refused to believe that Anathea didn't know how to call for a taxi. She was, after all, an adult.With that thought, he ignored Martin and took off his coat before tossing it at Cyrus. After that, he headed straight upstairs."Dad!" The instant Xander spotted Gregory, he rushed over and asked in confusion, "Why is Ms. Whitman's room empty?"Here he had been thinking

Gregory was growing softer when it came to Anathea.This wasn't a good thing!And Theo himself had earlier almost done the same.Upon realizing this, Theo smacked the steering wheel in anger before starting the engine. Stomping down on the accelerator, he sped off, spraying water everywhere.…At the Sinclair residence, Gregory parked the car before saying emotionlessly, "We're here. Get out."However, he received no response.Displeased, he turned to look, only to see that Anathea's eyes were tightly shut."Anathea?" Gregory called out.Still no reply.It was then he noticed Anathea's shallow breathing and the unnatural flush to her previously pale face.Expression turning grim, Gregory reached out a hand to touch her forehead. It was burning hot!"Anathea!" Gregory immediately unbuckled her seatbelt and circled the car to pick her up. Then, he strode quickly into the living room."What's going on?" Cyrus and Jenny came over to see what the commotion was about."Anathea
