| looked at him with a complicated gaze. In just a few days of not seeing each other, | could see aging and

weariness on his face. Even his starry eyes had grown a little dull. | felt sorry for him and subconsciously raised

my hand to stroke his brows.

"Have you been very tired lately?" | asked softly.

Theo held my hand, his gaze softening considerably. "I'm okay. I've gotten used to it."

| suddenly realized that | had never really cared about how tired he was. | lay in his arms and tenderly asked, "Do

you think that I'm an unqualified wife, Theo?"

He stroked my hair, a little surprised by my sudden question. "Why do you say so?"

"Just asking."

'Wanda, don't ever doubt yourself. Humans take tto grow. Not just you, but it's the sfortoo."

I nodded and listened to his heartbeat, feeling particularly at ease. "Why don't you live in the Schumans' place

too? The project hasn't been completed yet. I'll still have to make a trip back after National Day. | know Grant

Corporation has lots to handle. Even though | can't be of any help, | can at least make sure you have dinner

waiting for you when you chome. | can massage your back before you sleep at night."

He pulledaway from his arms and cupped my face, asking with a smile, "So, I'm kind of indebted to you?"

| smiled slightly. "According to my family's tradition, we're a family once we're married. There's no such thing as

being indebted."

"Glad to hear that. Otherwise, I'd get even madder at you."

| widened my eyes. "Who's making you mad?"

"Are you saying that you're not bullying me?"

I'm not!"

I would not admit it even if | was.

Theo embracedwith a face full of smiles.

He embracedsilently for a few minutes and tookinto the lounge.

He had not gotten much sleep lately and fell asleep not long after laying down. | felt extremely sorry for him

seeing how deeply asleep he was.

There were movements outside the door. | tiptoed out of the lounge.

Keith was putting a bunch of files on the office table. When he sawcoming out of the lounge, he said with a

smile, "These are the quarterly reports. Please have Mr. Grant scan through them once he's awake."

I nodded. Til let him know."

| continued after a pause, "I have a question to ask you, Keith."

"Please ask, Mrs. Grant."

"How's the investigation related to the resort incident going? If you've found out something, then | hope you can

tell me."

Although things were slightly busier lately, | had not forgotten about this incident yet.

Keith pursed his lips, looking reluctant to tellanything.

He thought about it and eventually said," The things | found aren't very important. Don't be anxious, Mrs. Grant.

We have to take the long road for this." He left after saying that.

The more he refused to tell me, the more my suspicion was confirmed that the string of strange incidents

happening in the research institute was more complicated than it seemed. Since Keith refused to tell me, | had

no plans to press him about the matter. If he could solve the problem, then why should | bother getting

concerned about it? Theo woke up half an hour later.

When he walked out of the lounge, | asked with a frown, "Do you want to sleep a while more? How can you have

enough sleep in such a short period of time?" He cover to hugand said in a slightly hoarse voice, "I «

can't sleep well when you're not around."
