Chapter 1249
On the way to the restaurant. we bumped into Theo and Cindy.
They looked like they were also going to the restaurant.
Cindy greetedvery naturally. "What a coincidence, Ms. Lane. Theowy and | were just about to pick you up for
lunch." Krayden greeted them and left after hearing what she said.
| looked at Theo. "Is Mr. Nicols not here yet?"
This lady was dying to follow Theo 24/7.1 felt immensely annoyed by her.
Theo walked up toand took my hand, saying. “Zedd isn’t done with work yet.
Let's go and have something to eat. You

We were almost at the restaurant now, so | could not just say that I did not want to go anymore.
Moreover, there was nothing else to eat around here if | did not go to the restaurant.
After walking into the restaurant and sitting at the table, Cindy kept talking to Theo.
She wore a naive look on her face the whole time. speaking in a very girlish voice.
It was unsure if she was doing it on purpose, or if she unconsciously behaved this way when Theo was around. |
could not stand her and looked out the window, choosing to ignore her.
After ordering the dishes, Cindy insisted
on dragging Theo to buy ice cream. | wondered what had gotten into her.
Theo was tired from a morning's work and did not want to go. so he asked her to go alone.
When Cindy left the restaurant, | propped up my chin and looked at Theo, asking him with a smile, 'Can you feel
at ease letting her go alone?” Theo held my hand. "Are you jealous, Mrs. Grant?"
"What's there to be jealous about?" My mouth twitched. "Didn't you say that you only treat her as a sister?”
Those words carried hints of sarcasm.
Theo sensed it.
He helplessly smiled and stuck one, hand into*his suit pocket. He took* out a.delicately wrapped box, then
stuffed it into my hands. Content =
| froze a little and lowered my head to look. "What is it?"
“You'll know after you open it.”
| pursed my lips and opened the box.
It was a gorgeous necklace. | looked up at Theo, who said with a smile, “Try it on."
"When did you buy it?”

Theo had already put the necklace onas he said that.
He gazed atfor a few seconds before commenting with a smile, “It suits you very much.”
| felt uncomfortable under his gaze, so | changed the subject, "How's Keith's investigation going?" | wanted to
ask two days ago but was too busy that | forgot.
"We're still investigating. You don’t have to worry about it. We'll have an answer sooner or later.”
Theo did not want to tellthe details, so I did not ask either.
When the dishes were served, Cindy still had not returned. | looked at Theo and said, “She's been gone for SO
lang. Do you think sometkting happened to her?" to 7
Theo pursed his lips and picked up his phone. "Where is she?” he asked the person on the phone.
It was probably the bodyguard in charge of following Cindy. &
