The Woman From Hell
Chapter 382

Chapter 382

Theo could not figure out whether I was in a good mood or not. He dared not to continue pleading with m e. He was only testing me.

I frowned with annoyance. "I have to wake up early tomorrow. Can’t you be considerate?"

"Then I'll wait until you come back from your business trip," Theo sulked and said.

I neither agreed nor disagreed. I shut my eyes and squirmed to the left. "Go to sleep."

Theo was not convinced and approached me again. " Promise me."

I knew I would not be able to sleep if I did not promise him. I could only nod my head helplessly. "Alright, alright. I promise. Please let me sleep."

"Okay, go to sleep." Theo was finally satisfied. He smiled and kissed me on the cheek. "Goodnight."

“Mmm."

I did not sleep well. I had nightmares. I woke up at seven o'clock in the morning and my head was hurting.

Theo could see that I did not look well. He was a little worried. “Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

I rubbed between my brows. "My head hurts."

"Then don't go. Just rest at home." While Theo was talking, he took out his phone. "Let me inform Matthew.”

I grabbed his hand and said hurriedly, "No, I have to go."

Theo pursed his lips unhappily. "You're still going even though you're feeling uncomfortable?"

I insisted and nodded my head.

He stared at me for a long time. In the end, he knew that he could not stop me. He said helplessly, "Then I’ll go with you."

"I'm not as fragile as a porcelain doll." I snatched his phone away and threw it on the bed. "I can't just stop working just because I have a headache."

After I said so, I turned around and entered the bathroom. No matter how he tried to convince me, I would not listen to him.

After I took a shower and came out of the bathroom, Theo looked at me with an unhappy expression on his face. "Does your head still hurt?"

"It’s better." It was not. However, I could only lie. Otherwise, I would not be able to leave the house today.

Theo had some doubts. He walked toward me and looked at my face carefully. "Really?"

"Yes." I held three fingers up. "I swear. I'll turn into a puppy if I lie."

Theo was amused. He did not say anything more to stop me from going on the business trip.

After breakfast, he sent me to the airport.

I unfastened my seat belt and got out of the car. Theo followed me. "Are you leaving without a word?"

U H

I let out a light cough and said nonchalantly, "I’ll be back soon. Take care of yourself when you're alone at home. Eat well and sleep well."

It sounded like I was brushing him off. At least it was like that in Theo's ears.

He frowned unhappily. "Come back within five days. Otherwise, I’ll never let you go on a business trip after this."

Was it so hard for him to leave me alone?

It was almost time to board the plane. I did not want t o waste my time arguing with him. I nodded my head calmly, expressing that I understood. Whether I would be able to return within five days was to be discussed later. If I could not return in time, he could not possibly go to Salt City to bring me back, right?

Theo pointed at his cheek. "Kiss me."

This was the first time I felt that this man was so troublesome. Although it was troublesome, I still moved my lips near him. After all, this man would not give up and stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

A trace of a smirk flashed across his face. My kiss fell right on his lips.

Many people were passing to and fro around us. It was no surprise that it caught many people's attention.

My face was blushing a little. I glared at him, turned around, and walked away.

Theo was grinning happily behind me. He was in a good mood.
