Chapter 202 I told Cecilia, "Take care of yourself over there. I'll cover to see you when I'm free." "Okay! I'll be waiting. Take care!" After a pause, she continued, "And don't tell Mason that I'm here." I agreed and hung up the phone.

"The lasagna is done. I tasted it and it's really good." Theo placed the plate on the table and scooped up sfor me. "Try it." I opened my mouth and took a bite. It was tasteless. I could not even tell what I was eating.

He picked up another spoonful but I shook my head. I did not want it anymore because I had no appetite for i t. He did not insist and just put down the spoon on the plate. He sat on the edge of the bed without saying anything. He just sat quietly with me.

I felt bored, so I picked up a book to read. When Theo saw that I was reading, he went to the study to get sdocuments and cback to accompany me.

After a long time, my phone rang. It was a foreign number, and I assumed it was Jerome. 'Cecilia sure works fast.' Theo stared at the number and looked a little suspicious but did not say anything. He just pretended to be absorbed by his work and buried his head in his files.

I got up and went to the balcony to pick up the phone.

"Holy sh*t, woman, what took you so long to answer the phone?" Even though I had not seen him for years, Jerwas still the same.

I had not heard his voice for a long tbut the sense of familiarity immediately overwhelmed me. I could not help myself and said, "Jerome, how are you?" "I'm doing good, but I'm a little sad that you haven't contacted me. I know you're married now so I didn't want to bother you. If Cecilia hadn't textedtoday, I would've thought that you had disappeared from this world or something." Jersounded a bit disgruntled.

I felt a little bad about it. I did not want to ignore my friends on purpose, but I was just an introvert by nature. After I got married, I felt even more unhappy, so I did not keep in touch with any of my friends except Cecilia. Jercontinued nagging and did not wait for my answer. He continued, "Cecilia toldthat you're still in Salt City and you've been a little moody lately. What's going on? Problems with your marriage?" I did not say anything. I had not seen him in years, so I did not know how to bring it up. Instead, I asked, "Are you coming back soon? Let's meet up!" "I was planning to go back next year, but Cecilia toldabout your situation and it sounds pretty serious. How about this? Letfinish up my work here and I'll cback to see you in a few days. Wanda, you know that you're depressed, so you must learn to release your emotions. You can't let another attack happen again, okay?" I massaged my aching brow bone and said softly, "I know." "You must take good care of yourself. You know how bad it can get. It might just kill you." His tone was solemn. I knew he meant well, so I just nodded obediently. "I'll try my best to control it." When I saw Theo put down the documents in his hand and walk toward the balcony, I told Jerome, "We'll talk more when you get back. I'm hanging up now." "Damn, you really haven't changed one bit. You're always the first to hang up," Jerroared over the phone.

I ignored him and hung up the phone. Theo cto m y side and looked atindifferently. "Are you done with your work?" He nodded, tookinto his arms, and kissedon my forehead. He said, "Let's move to another place.

What do you think?" "Where do you want to move to?" Salt City was where Grant Corporation was established and the base of its large headquarters.

"Whaldorf City. I'm planning to start expanding the company over there." He sat down on a lounge chair on the balcony, pulledonto his lap, and rubbed my stomach as he spoke.

"Salt City isn't bad, but it's not as e good as Whaldorf City. Since it's the capital, it'll be good for thecompany's expansion. I also want our children to be born in a better place so that they can get a better education in the future."

Whaldorf City was the best in everything with a better economic outlook and location. If Granto m Location Gorporation wanted to expand, Whaldorf City was definitely a good choice. I knew that Theo had been preparing this for years.

I furrowed my eyebrows and said, "Didn't you previously say that now isn't the best tto go? Why do you suddenly want to move? Wouldn't that be bad for the company's expansion?" The last tZedd brought it up, he rejected it and said that they needed more preparations before they moved.
