The Woman From Hell
Chapter 1148

Chapter 1148

I looked at him with a complicated expression. I would be lying if I said that I was not uncomfortablewith it.

Theo looked up, his dark eyes carrying doubt and incomprehension. "What's wrong?"

I shook my head with a face full of dilemma, then retracted my gaze from his face. I grabbedanother piece of fruit to eat.

Although I had a strong urge to snatch the apple from his hands and toss it in the trash, I could notdo so. I felt particularly aggrieved by it.

Theo raised his eyebrows and asked in hindsight, "You took a bite out of this apple

before this?"

I started coughing as soon as he said that.

This man must have hit his head, right?

Forget the fact that he was eating it on purpose, he was even pretending not to know andmentioned it out loud. How malicious he was!

I picked up my cup and quickly took a sip o f water.

Theo frowned. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Eat." I was angry, so naturally, m y tone came off a little harsh.

This man was doing it on purpose, and there was no doubt about it.

Theo nodded and said no more. He was not the least bit concerned about this matter.

I did not want to entertain him, so I ate

fruits while observing Shannon and Jordan in the kitchen.

Although Shannon was usually bold, loud, and easily irritated, she was really a meticulous person.She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth yet did not act like a spoiled lady. She knew how tomake amazing food, and when many women were repulsed by the mess in the kitchen, she wastruly passionate about cooking. It was rare.

Moreover, she was someone who could easily bring others warmth. There was never a dull day withher.

Jordan was a man who was cold to the core. A man like that would hope more than anything else tohave someone to give him warmth and something different in life.

Thinking about it that way, the two actually looked really good together!

"Jordan doesn't like you. It's useless no matter how lonely you try to make yourself seem.” Theo'svoice rang out in my ears.

I frowned and looked unkindly at him." Why would you think that I'm feeling lonely?"

Theo raised his eyebrows. "How can you not feel lonely when your crush is preparing meals withanother person, and they're laughing and talking in the kitchen?"

I could not help but roll my eyes at him. " You sure know how to misinterpret people, Mr. Grant. I justthink they look good together."

He smirked. "Is that so?"

I did not want to explain further as there was no use explaining it anymore.

Later, I propped my chin up and continued t o observe the two in the kitchen.

Theo kept staring at me, which made me awkward. I got up and went to the kitchen.

Although it was inappropriate to interrupt the private time between Shannon and Jordan, I really didnot want to spend time with Theo alone. I could only apologize.

Seeing the two people bustling about, I asked with a smile, "Do you need any help?"

"No."

Shannon waved at me. "I told you that you're a patient and need to rest. The smoke in the kitchen isstrong, so hurry up and go out. It won’t be good if you start coughing from the smoke."
