Chapter 229
Chapter: 229 Soon after Sprague finished his report, he left with his men.
Horace closed the door behind them and walked to Theodore. “This is similar to the previous car accident. The culprit must be the same person,” he said gravely. ©
Theodore’s expression was cold and stiff. “Some people just can’t keep still,” he grumbled.
“Could it be Darian?” Horace asked.
Theodore snorted, “It can’t be. That old man wants my shares. He won’t kill me until he gets his hands on them.” “So it’s Jasper?” Horace continued to guess.
Theodore remained silent in thought. He glanced at Horace and said thoughtfully,
“This is the second time you failed to notice the car was sabotaged.”
Horace was startled and apologized immediately, “I’m sorry. | promise it won’t happen again.”
Theodore didn’t answer but softened his look a little.
Horace continued while his heart pounded nervously, “Fortunately, Mrs. Anderson was there to save us this time. She had never given up on you. She really loves you a lot.”
Horace observed Theodore’s expression as he spoke. He breathed a sigh of relief when Theodore’s anger faded, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
Typically, Horace would be punished to work in a remote mine, as per his usual punishments. However, because of those words, Theodore felt that Horace might be worthwhile to have around.
Theodore also sensed that Ariana loved him a lot. Otherwise, she would have given up on saving him at that time.
He was in a life-and-death situation and yet, she refused to leave him alone even if it meant risking her own life.
Theodore was in a good mood. He wheeled himself to the bedside, and his elbow accidentally knocked Ariana’s bag off the table.
The bag was opened as the zip was spoiled, and the contents scattered all over the floor.
Horace wanted to help Theodore collect the items from the floor, but Theodore stopped him. Theodore didn’t want any man to touch Ariana’s things, even if it was Horace.
Theodore picked up all the items on the floor, including lipstick, a small mirror, makeup, an umbrella, and a paper envelope. He then returned them to her bag.
When Theodore picked up the paper envelope, he found it was opened, revealing a document.
Theodore frowned and hesitated. Unable to suppress his curiosity, he took out the document and realized it was a divorce agreement.
At that moment, Horace was standing near Theodore, and he was able to see the divorce agreement.
