Forbidden Passion -
Chapter 108 Love, Jealousy, and Deceit
Her heart fluttered in panic. The sound of high heels hitting the floor came from upstairs, and the hand that was around her waist quickly retreated. Phoebe took a step back, unable to hide her disappointment.
Vanessa came downstairs and felt the strange atmosphere between the two. She smiled at Theodore and said, "Theodore, I'm all packed. Let's go." Phoebe couldn't help but feel upset. No wonder he suddenly wanted to go for a midnight snack, and it was Vanessa's suggestion.
What did he come here to invite her for? Theodore nodded and looked at Phoebe. Phoebe's face turned cold and she said, "I've been strolling around all afternoon and I'm tired. You guys go, I won't go."
She would rather stay in the villa and exchange sarcastic remarks with Ruby than go and see them enjoying their romantic midnight snack, torturing herself. After speaking, she squatted down to continue packing another suitcase.
Theodore frowned and looked at her for a few seconds. The atmosphere gradually became tense. Just when Vanessa was worried that their date would be ruined, Theodore turned around without saying a word and walked towards the door. "Theodore, wait for me," Vanessa quickly caught up with him. When she reached the hallway, she couldn't help but turn back and smile triumphantly at Phoebe. The door closed and the sound of the engine faded away. Phoebe sat on the carpet; her shoulders slumped. From last night till today, Theodore was accommodating to her every request. She thought that their relationship had improved a lot and was slowly becoming more like a normal couple. But as soon as Vanessa arrived, it was like a loud slap in the face, instantly waking her up. No matter how domineering she was in front of Vanessa, it was all bluff. It was not until now that she truly realized a reality: Theodore still cared about Vanessa.
Phoebe didn't know when she fell asleep again. When she woke up, she was the only one in the bed. Listening to the sound of the waves outside the window, she dazed for a while before uncovering the blanket and getting out of bed. Vanessa had finished recording the show yesterday, and they were flying back to Kedora this morning. After washing up in the bathroom and changing her clothes, she packed up her things and went downstairs.
It was quiet downstairs, with only her suitcase sitting there alone. She walked over and saw a note attached to the suitcase. The handwriting was elegant and forceful, unmistakably Theodore's. "You go back to Kedora first, Vanessa and I will return in the afternoon."
It was a cold statement without any explanation. Phoebe felt a chill in her heart and didn't even have breakfast. She called a car and went straight to the airport. The plane landed at Kedora International Airport and John came to pick her up. He helped her put her luggage in the trunk and seeing how exhausted she looked, his words of concern slipped out.
"Miss Adams, why don't you rest for a while? I'll wake you up when we arrive." Phoebe looked at the street scene outside the window, which was constantly retreating. The temperature in Kedora was not lower than Riaca City, and the noon sun "was scorching the asphalt road.
Phoebe saw it all unfold before her eye, the car soaked in oil. Just as she was about to speak, she noticed a black sedan next to them on the adjacent lane.
The car window rolled down, revealing a couple in a passionate, inseparable kiss. Just as she was about to marvel at how the driver could remain unfazed, the man lifted his head, exposing his true colors. "Damn it!" Phoebe cursed under her breath.
