Chapter 103 At the most critical moment, Miss Woods' cover to help again. "You should walk more instead of being cooped up at home. Young Master, why don't you go and take a walk with Young Mistress? She's been complaining about the pain on her feet and they're starting to look a little swollen." Theo, who was about to go upstairs, glanced atand said, "Letchange my clothes first." I looked down at my feet and whispered, "Miss Woods, my feet aren't swollen." "Silly, I'm just making up an excuse for you. Anyway, they'll get swollen in the future and I know you'll complain about the pain soon. Let this be a secret between us." After she said that, she gavea wink and turned around to clean up the dishes.
Soon after, Theo had changed his clothes and he cdownstairs. He looked at my feet and asked, "Is it really painful?" I nodded guiltily and said softly, "It's probably sbuilt-up fluid. I can ice them later and they'll be fine." He furrowed his eyebrows, turned away slightly, and said faintly, "Let's take a walk outside." After he said that, he lowered his head and chose a pair of flats for me. I put them on and went outside with him.
Outside, the sun was setting and the air was fresh. We rarely went out to take a walk together after dinner. It was nice.
Theo held my hand along the way and walked very slowly. He did not say anything as well, so I kept my mouth shut and quietly let him pullforward.

Suddenly, the ringing of a phone broke the initial quietness.
It was my phone. Theo's eyebrows slightly narrowed and he seemed somewhat unhappy.
I took out my phone and saw that it was Xander calling. I could not help getting worried because if he was calling at this hour, it must mean there was trouble! If I did not answer my phone now, I would be even more worried. Hence, I had no choice but to answer the call. I asked, "It's late. Why are you callingat this hour?" "I've asked someone to remove the trending news from Guegel. If this affects Grant Corporation's endorsement, I'm willing to waive the spokesperson fee and do it for free." Xander spoke very seriously from the other end of the phone.
I was caught off guard by his sudden change in behavior, so I stammered, "No, it's fine. Just take care o f the trending news because I don't want this thing to go on any longer." "If this doesn't die down, I'll hold a press conference. Don't worry, since I told you I like you, I'll make sure you never get hurt." As Xander spoke, he suddenly started joking around.
Theo stood in front ofwith a cold look on his face. Even though he could not hear what Xander was saying, he was obviously getting a little impatient.
"Okay, I got it. If that's all, I'm hanging up now. You should rest early. It's another work day tomorrow." After I said that, I hurriedly hung up before he could say anything else.
After I hung up the phone, I said embarrassedly, "That was Xander. He toldthat he's dealt with the trending news and he'll hold a press conference if necessary." Theo did not say anything and just turned around. He spat out coldly, "Let's go home." After he said that, he led the way toward the villa even though we had just started our walk. Since he had already started walking, he was far away and I had no choice but to follow him back resentfully.
When I got back to the house, Theo went inside to take a shower. I looked around and luckily, my things were still here. He had only changed the locks and did not throw my things away.

The man took a quick shower. In less than ten minutes, Theo cout with his hair dripping wet. He had only a b a bath towel around his waist.
His perfect figure and the water droplets dripping from his six-pack abs and chest made him look sexy as hell. I thought it was strange. I rarely saw him working out, but his body looked like a male model's. His sculpted muscles looked utterly perfect.
"Aren't you going to take a shower?" Theo's voice pulledback from my daze. I froze for a moment before I blushed and went into the bathroom.
When I got out of the shower, Theo was already halflying on the bed, reading a book.
I grabbed a towel and wiped my hair. Without a word, he got up and took the hairdryer to dry my hair for me.
I sat there quietly while he helped me.
While I was enjoying him helpingdry my hair, he would carefully ruffle Atth every inch of my hair. At that moment, I felt the illusion of him cherishing me. Soon, my hair was dry. When I lay down, he sat up, lifted my foot, and put it on his lap. He said, "Is it still swollen and painful?" X
