“Then you have to ask yourself, when did you change your caller ID on my phone?” Theodore countered.
“| can’t do that? I'll do it again!” Ariana mocked.
“Alright, alright. | hope next time it’s a normal name, otherwise | can’t even find my dear wife’s contact number in my phone.” Theodore laughed.
Though Ariana remained uneasy, her anger subsided somewhat. She inquired, “Why is Helen here? Tell me the truth.” “She’s having a heart surgery tomorrow. She said she was scared and came here.”
Worried that Ariana might misunderstand the situation, Theodore clarified, “I haven't visited her at the hospital for a while. After all, she considers me her brother. | may go see her with Horace tomorrow before she has the surgery.”
He mentioned Horace’s name, implying he wouldn't be alone with Helen.
Hearing this, Ariana’s anger disappeared, and she didn’t bring up Helen again. After all, after observing several times, she was certain that Helen had feelings for Theodore, but he didn’t reciprocate them.
“Now, | need to get back to work. Remember to eat. Don’t neglect your health because you're too busy. You'll be in trouble if | find out you haven't eaten.” Ariana spoke sternly, but she genuinely cared for Theodore.
Awarmth filled Theodore’s heart, washing away his fatigue. He responded softly, “I understand. When I’m done with work, I’ll be there to be with you.”
“alright. Bye, brother Theodore.” Ariana giggled and hung up the phone as soon as she finished. Theodore put down the phone and shook his head in resignation.
Glancing at the time, he used the landline to call Horace in.
“Have someone escort Helen back to the hospital.”
Horace replied, “Boss, Helen already left. She said she’d go back to the hospital on her own.”
Meanwhile, Ariana returned to her office.
Marge was still there. Spotting Ariana, she immediately approached and asked, “How’s it going? What's the deal with the woman in the white dress?”
“It's a misunderstanding. She’s just a relative of Theodore’s.” Ariana responded, her mood lifted. Marge breathed a sigh of relief. “That’s good. That’s good to hear.” After work, Theodore remained busy and had to return home late, so he instructed the driver to take Ariana home.
Glancing at her watch, Ariana saw it was still early and decided against asking the driver to take her home. She wanted to go to the supermarket to buy groceries and head home by herself. Without Theodore, she found it boring to be alone at home.
