Chapter 333

"Wanda, what's wrong with you?” It was Matthew on the other side of the phone. He could hear thatI sounded unusual and was anxious about it.

"I'm fine." I closed my eyes. "I'm just sleepy."

Matthew immediately let out a sigh of relief. "Then get some sleep after dinner. I've asked thecaretaker to send it over. It should be there soon."

I truly appreciated his attentiveness and care, but they made me feel burdened. "Matthew, can youstop treating me so kindly? What if I can't repay your kindness?"

Matthew chuckled. He chose not to answer this question. "Stop thinking nonsense. Remember totake your medicine after your dinner, then get some sleep. I'm going to attend a meeting now. That'sall.”

"Alright." I sighed helplessly.

Not long after I hung up the phone, the caretaker arrived to send the dinner over.

It was a shame to let the food go to waste. Even though I had no appetite, I forced myself to eatsome o f it. After dinner, I took the anti-depressant pills. Then, I went back to the bedroom and laydown on my bed. I soon fell asleep.

It was unknown how long I had been asleep but the room was dark when I woke up. I heard theheavy rain outside. I wrapped myself tightly in the blanket.

Fortunately, there was no thunder. Otherwise, I was afraid that I would have another episode. I didnot want to hallucinate and run out of the house again.

I was unable to fall asleep again. I switched on the lights at the bedside and took my phone out.

While I was scrolling Facebook, I received a text message. 1

[Are you asleep?]

It was a text message from Theo. I felt a sudden irritation in my heart.

When I was about to delete the message and pretended nothing had happened, he called.

I did not want to pick it up. I declined his call decisively. When he called again, I declined again.However, he persisted. After doing this more than ten times, I finally got impatient. I picked up hiscall and said in a cold voice, "Theo, do you know what time it is now? If you're sick, then go and seea doctor. Stop calling me if you have nothing to do."

"Wanda, it’s been a long time since I cuddled you and slept together with you." Theo’s voicesounded a little lonely. "I haven't had a good sleep since."

I got even more irritated. I did not want to listen to him anymore. "I'm hanging up."

Theo fell silent for a moment and spoke in a hoarse voice, "I texted you because I can see that thelights are on in your room. I couldn't help myself. I miss you so much."

I was stunned. I got out of bed and walked to the floor-t o-ceiling window. I looked down.

Sure enough, there was a dark figure standing under the rain on this rainy night.

I laughed sardonically. "Theo, do you think I'd grow soft-hearted if you do this?"

"Will you?" he questioned me back.

I pursed my lips and replied after some time, "No, I won't. I won't even frown if you get drenched inthe rain and die."

"Do you hate me that much?" There was a hint of a smile in this voice.

How was he still able to smile?!

I took a deep breath and deliberately sounded harsh, saying, "Stop standing there. If you get sickfrom being in the rain, President Grant, I won't be able to afford the consequences."

"Wanda, are you caring...”

I knew what Theo was going to say before he managed to finish his sentence. I hung up the phoneright away.
