Chapter: 550

Her fingers gently caressed the cufflink on the suit, soaking in its familiar texture and scent. She knew

Theodore was furious. Their journey from the Anderson family’s residence to the hospital had been

marked by silence, yet he had offered his jacket to her as they got off the vehicle.

At that moment, the emotional release she had been holding in was about to erupt, but it was quickly

cut off by his abrupt departure without saying a word.

Tears threatened to spill from Ariana’s eyes, but she knew it was useless. They held no power to solve

the situation.

She vigorously wiped her red eyes and glanced up at Theodore, who was engaged in conversation

with the doctor nearby.

After a brief exchange, Theodore signed the document, which the doctor promptly carried into the

emergency room.

Ariana was filled with anxiety. Did the notice mean that Helen’s condition was critical? Had Helen truly

taken such a significant risk? It shouldn’t be. After all, wasn’t it Helen’s plan to stage a fall down the

stairs? Surely, she would’ve exercised some restraint in executing the act, considering it was her life at

stake. Without it, she would be incapable of challenging Ariana for Theodore’s affection.

Ariana found herself lost in contemplation, her lips pressed together tightly.

Suddenly, her view of the surrounding light dimmed as a shadow loomed over her.

Raising her head, she found herself locked in Theodore’s deep gaze. Their silent exchange stretched

out for what felt like an eternity.

“Why did you feel the need to visit the Anderson family’s residence so suddenly?”

Theodore maintained a composed tone, but his furrowed brow revealed his underlying displeasure.

Ariana felt sad, yet her voice was rigid as she stated, “Helen invited me over and told me all the secrets

there. She even led me to that particular room. Also, about her falling down the stairs, if I said I had no

part in it, would you believe me?”

“I believe you.” Theodore didn’t hesitate to answer her question, but his expression remained cold. “I’ve

always known that Helen isn’t as innocent as she appears.”

Ariana was surprised by his response and her eyes widened. She asked, “If you know that, why do you

still treat her so well? Is it just because she was Marley’s best friend?”

Theodore’s face darkened when he heard the name “Marley”. Much like the moment back at the

Anderson family’s residence when he learned from Helen that Ariana went into Marley’s room, he was

unable to mask his terrible expression.

As Ariana’s eyes welled up, she struggled to keep the quiver out of her voice as she asked, ‘Who is

Marley? Do you care about her a lot? Why is her room still on the fourth floor? And what do you think of

me?”

Ariana hoped for more answers from Theodore, but he remained silent.

“So, she truly matters to you.” Ariana spoke softly, almost as if she was mocking herself. “You’ve been

lying to me all along, so why stop now?”

It tured out Helen’s words held truth. Marley was indeed Theodore’s first love.

Ariana was about to cry, so she hurriedly lowered her head. She didn’t want ‘Theodore to witness her

like that. After losing everything, she didn’t want to appear a mess in front of him once again.

Ariana was trembling, feeling absurdly foolish. She wanted to ask if Theodore had ever perceived her

as a substitute for Marley, but at that exact moment, the operating room lights flickered off.

A nurse gently transported Helen out of the operating room and led her to one of the wards along the

corridor. Following closely behind, the doctor approached with medical documents in hand.
