The Woman From Hell
Chapter 346

Chapter 346

Theo looked at Matthew with hostility in his eyes." Can you leave?”

"No." Matthew's eyes were equally as hostile when he looked at Theo.

These two men were glaring at each other, both refusing to budge.

The atmosphere was so bizarre. I frowned in agitation as I looked at Matthew. "Leave first, okay?"

I knew Theo; he was an extremely stubborn man. If Matthew insisted on staying, things would gointo a stalemate.

Disagreement filled Matthew's face but I gave him a faint smile. "I'll call you if anything happens."

After a long while, he nodded and glared at Theo as a warning before leaving the ward.

There was only Theo and me in the ward now. The atmosphere had grown eerier.

I did not want to talk to him, so I closed my eyes and waited for him to initiate the conversation.

"Are you hurting anywhere?" Theo came to my bed.

I pursed my lips and did not give him an answer.

The pain in my body was nowhere as intolerable as the pain in my heart. The pain I felt in my bodywas nothing worth mentioning.

Theo saw that I was ignoring him and I had my eyes shut tight, pretending to be asleep. He sighed."You don't even want to look at me now?"

I remained silent.

The ward fell into deep silence. Right when I was about to fall asleep, a pair of big hands graspedmine.

His hands were scalding, giving my icy-cold ones some warmth. However, it could not reach myheart.

I opened my eyes and looked at Theo coldly. "If you have nothing to say, leave. I don't want to seeyou now."

Theo’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down. He wanted t o say something, but in the end, he did not.

He released my hands, picked up an apple, and fished out a fruit knife from the drawer. "If I hadsomething t o tell you, would you listen?"

I would not.

From my eyes, Theo knew what my answer was. He grimaced but did not say anything more as hepeeled the apple in silence.

I watched him peel the apple. My mind kept replaying images from before our baby died and whenwe were happy.

We could never return to those happy times again. Our journey had come to an end.

"Will you eat it?" Theo smiled and asked me after he finished peeling the apple.

I scoffed as I reached out for the apple.

However, I did not eat it. I opened my hand and let it fall to the floor.

Theo's breath was stuck in his throat. He did not expect me to react like this.

"Sorry." My face scrunched up in a smile. "My hands have been a little shaky recently.”

This was purely an ill-intentioned act. Theo did not get angry and just picked up the apple without aword. He threw it into the trash can.

Right after, he took another apple from the fruit basket. "I’ll peel another one for you."

My hands were balled into fists, and I gritted my teeth. I could no longer control myself. "TheoGrant, I don't need you to take care of me anymore. You don’t need t o. Our baby is dead."
