Chapter 302

After Patricia left the ward, her gaze swept the hospital corridor, hoping to catch a glimpse of the man

who had just left.

She didn’t see Theo in the winding hospital hallways, even though they had only been separated by a

few minutes.

Where the hell did Theo go? It was only when she saw the door to the stairwell being pushed open and

Collin’s stern face emerging that she got her answer.

Patricia quickly headed that way, running smack into Collin.

Collin gave a slight nod and said, “Ms. Howard.”

Patricia nodded back, asking, “Collin, is Theo in there?”

As honest as ever, Collin replied, “Yes, he’s in there.”

Patricia said, “Then I’ll go in and see him.”

With that, she pushed open the door to the stairwell.

Collin didn’t stop her, but as he saw her disappear into the stairwell, his usually calm face showed a

flicker of emotion before he quickly turned and left. He had work to do that Theo had just handed off to

him.

Once inside, Patricia saw Theo standing by a window, smoking.

She approached him, coughing a couple of times from the smoke, and said, “Theo…”

Exhaling a puff of smoke, Theo squinted at her and asked, “What’s up?”

With a worried look on her face, Patricia asked, “Theo, are you mad because someone deceived me?”

Theo didn’t respond.

Patricia sighed. “Because you trusted her, and she betrayed your trust. You must be really pissed off. I

can tell you’re mad.”

Again, Theo didn’t deny it. After a pause, he told her, “You should be able to leave the hospital today.

Go home with your brother.”

Patricia looked stunned, her eyes filled with sadness.

She shook her head and said, “Theo, I’m fine. I want to stay here with you.”

Frowning, Theo pointed out, “The hospital is full of germs. You’re not strong enough to fight them off.

Don’t get sick again when you’re still recovering.”

Patricia’s heart beat faster, a tear glinting in her eye. “Theo, so you do still care about me…. I thought

you didn’t care anymore.”

Theo told her, “Alright, go home. Your brother is waiting.”

With a start, Patricia turned to see that, indeed, Balfourr had pushed open the door to the stairwell and

was watching them with a heavy

gaze.

A bit helpless, she turned back to Theo and asked, “Theo, after I go home, will you still come to see

me?”

Theo was silent, then nodded his head.

A blush spread across Patricia’s pale face as she tugged at the corner of Theo’s shirt. “Can you walk

me down to the hospital entrance? I want you to see me off.”

Theo took a moment before crushing out his cigarette and saying, “Let’s go.”

With a soft glow in Patricia’s eyes, she obediently nodded and followed him out.

To her waiting brother Balfour, she said, “Balfourr, let’s go home!”

Balfour gave her a sidelong glance, pretending to be angry. “When I told you to go home, you wouldn’t

listen. But when someone else tells you, you jump right to it?”

Patricia’s face instantly turned red. She shyly glanced at the man beside her before stamping her foot

and yelling, “Balfour!”

“Alright, let’s go.” Balfour ruffled her hair with a smile, his eyes then turning cold as he turned to Theo.

“Theo, thank you for putting the past aside and persuading Patricia to go home.”

“No problem. Theo said it nonchalantly, his tone cool.
