| frowned. “Thanks for your concern, Ms.

Reed. But as you can see, I'm fine.” "I was going to tell you about the things | discovered, but since you don't

have time, then let's just forget about it.” | froze.

Theo had assigned someone to investigate this matter and did not say much to me, which meant that he had not

found anything.

How did Cindy find out about this, then?

Why was she investigating it?

Did she have anything to do with this?

"What do you know?" | did not want to beat about the bush with her and asked straightforwardly.

"| felt really sorry for Theowy having to work on usual days and investigate this matter for you at the stime,

so | found someone to do it for me. Only, | never expected the result to be so shocking. If you want to know, then

don't you think you should at least be nicer to me?”

| understood what she meant by that and asked with a frown, "Where should we meet?”

Cindy toldthe address, and | hung up

After going back to my room to get changed, | went out.

She had asked to meet in a cafe and had already arrived. She was sitting by the window drinking coffee.

Seeing that | was here, she put down the coffee cup and said with a smile, "The coffee here is amazing. It has

just the right amount of bitterness.” | pursed my lips, not planning to answer her.

1 did not like bitter coffee, unlike her. This was the swith life. | could not stand even a hint of bitterness in

life.

After ordering a glass of juice and seeing that Cindy still did not intend to say anything. 1 asked with a frown,

"Surely you didn't invitehere just to drink coffee with you, Ms. Reed?"

Cindy chuckled faintly. "I'm not that silly." "I think you are quite silly.” | said unkindly.

Cindy did not take offense. After taking another sip of coffee, she looked at the necklace on my neck. "Theowy

took two of the snecklaces that day. | was wondering who he wanted to give the other one to. It turns out

it's you.”

| touched the necklace on my neck. This was a gift Theo gave toat dinner the other day. | had no plans of

answering her. There was no need to bring suffering upon me. Seeing that | had no plans of asking anything,

Cindy frowned. "Don’t you want to ask who he gave the other necklace to?”

"I don't want to know." | picked up the juice and took a sip. finding it too sweet.

day of the incident What did that matter, though?

| sneered. "You merely had a meal with him and are already coming toto show off about it. Don't you think

that's pathetic?”

"If you think I'm showing off to you, then that's fire. | have a special liking for seafood and Theowy —j

Otherwise, nothing would've happened to you." What a level-headed thing to say.

| smiled slightly. “The fact that someone tried to killhas nothing to do with you having a meal together.

Besides, after the incident, | finally know how much your so-called Theowy loves me. | guess it's worth it.”

The smile on Cindy's face faded.

She suppressed the anger in her heart and asked, “I'm interested to know what Sort of person you've <>
