Theodore asked, "Have you had a check-up at the hospital recently? Why do you look so terrible?"

"You don't even answer my phone calls these days. I don't want to go to the hospital alone." Helen's eyes were red, and she cried with a grievance, "Is it because I did something wrong that made you angry? Or is it because Ariana doesn't like me?"

Theodore sighed and replied dismissively, "Don't think too much about it. You should go to the hospital. Don't neglect your health."

Helen bit her trembling lip, gazing at him with tears in her eyes.

"Then why did you move out of the mansion without even telling me? Is it because you don't want to see me anymore?”

"I said don't think too much. It's none of your business. You don't have to worry about it." Theodore frowned, his eyes narrowed and his expression somber. He was not as gentle and patient as when he was with Ariana.

Helen was in a state of despair. She felt that Theodore was distancing himself farther and farther away from her, like a gust of wind she was desperately trying to catch in her hands.

“IT know, Theodore. I won't ask you about it anymore."

Theodore's face softened when she complied, and he asked, "Why didn't you stay at the mansion to recuperate? Why did you come here?"

“Why else? Because I miss you, Theodore." Helen lowered her head, her hair falling forward and her long eyelashes hiding her emotions.

Theodore sighed. He thought the young girl was weak and not in her right mind right now.

"I'll contact your attending doctor later and see when you can return to the hospital for an operation. Don't run around like this for now. Just stay in the mansion and rest."

When Helen heard that Theodore was trying to drive her away again, her expression darkened for a moment, and she said, "The day after tomorrow is the anniversary of Marley's death. I specially came here to see you so that we can go visit her tomb together."

She cast a careful look at Theodore and then asked tentatively, "Did you forget the date?"

Theodore was lost in his thoughts for a moment, but he shook his head and answered, "I haven't forgotten. For the past eight years, I remembered the date of Marley's death every year.”

Of course, Helen knew that there was no way Theodore would forget Marley. Marley was the person he cared about the most. If he didn't care about her so much, Helen wouldn't have been able to use Marley as an excuse to stay with him.

"Please, Theodore. Can I stay here?" Helen asked timidly.

After pondering over it for a while, Theodore finally agreed, "Fine. You can stay here."

Delighted, Helen exclaimed happily, "Thank you, Theodore!"

“Horace, help Helen arrange a room at the hotel nearby," Theodore ordered Horace, who was standing at the door.
