When are you coming back to the Anderson family's mansion? Helen has returned to the hospital to prepare for her operation. And I already asked Judy to clean your room and change the sheets."

Ariana was a little surprised and secretly felt happy. However, she snorted and replied with a sneer, "Who knows if you will bring her back when she recovers."

"I promise I won't. I will put her in another house and ensure she'll never visit the mansion again," Theodore said hurriedly as he wrapped his arms around her waist, drawing her closer.

"(ll think about it again. I have gotten used to living here," she replied casually. She didn't want to say that she would move back.

In fact, her heart had already softened. She just wanted to make things difficult for Theodore.

“That's fine. I've already planned to purchase both of our units. We can connect our units then. The landlady has already agreed," Theodore coaxed her patiently.

Ariana tried her best to hide her joy. She looked down at his tie and muttered, "I will consider it depending on your behavior. I'm going back to my room. Go to bed early.

Good night."

“Good night, Mrs. Anderson. Where is my kiss?" Theodore said cheekily as he held her firmly, preventing her from escaping.

Her heart beat even faster with his words. Her lips curled uncontrollably, and she pretended to reply irritably, "Okay."

She then bent over and wrapped her arms around Theodore's neck, kissing him.

And Theodore pulled her into his arms, deepening the hot kiss.

After the kiss, Ariana's face turned red, and her eyes were wet as she gasped for breath.

Theodore kissed her nose and hugged her waist. Suddenly, he asked, "Have you gained some weight recently? Your waist is thicker than before, and your belly seems a bit rounder."

He pinched her waist and reached out to her lower abdomen as he commented.

Shocked, Ariana jumped off Theodore's legs at once and covered her belly. She glared at him and berated him with righteous indignation, "You said I'm fat! A gentleman can't say that to a lady!"

Theodore was at a loss and stammered awkwardly, "I-I didn't mean to do that, but it's really what I feel when I touch your waist."

“Humph! I don't want to talk to you anymore.” Pretending to be angry, Ariana ran back to her apartment in a hurry.

Theodore stared blankly at the closed door and shook his head helplessly.

He really wanted to catch up with her and take her back to his room. Alas, he couldn't do that.
