章節 72: Theodore’s brazen claim

Bella climbed into the car with a huff. "You could have let me go to work," she grumbled, annoyance bubbling up. "I told you I would be back in time. Couldn't you have let me handle it? Do you have no faith in me?"

"Still complaining!" Theodore frowned, displeased. "Why are you so eager to accompany Zack? Is he special to you?" His voice held a hint of suspicion, a dark cloud creeping into his previously carefree eyes.

Fury blazed in Bella's eyes as she locked gazes with Theodore. His possessiveness, laced with suspicion, was a slap in the face. How dare he question her loyalty when he was the one cheating on their marriage!

"Yes, he is special," she snapped defiantly. "He is my boss. I have a job to do, and it's important to me."

Theodore's jaw clenched, his eyes narrowing. "You're my wife. That should be more important."
