Chapter: 646
Horace could only cry on the inside. He didn't want to go, okay?! Who liked to be the third wheel?
Although he whined about the situation in his heart, he still put on a polite smile and said, "Okay, sir.”
Theodore clicked his tongue and looked down at his legs, patting them despondently. He felt that his legs were hindering his relationship. Now that Ariana wasn't trying to file for a divorce, it was time for him to "recover."
Horace was an intelligent man. He could tell what Theodore was upset about, so he said to him, "Sir, it takes countless lies to keep up one lie. Perhaps you should consider telling her the truth?"
Rather than risk being caught, it was better to confess their wrongdoing and ask for forgiveness. Horace could not help but worry about him.
Theodore went silent for a while, considering it. Then he finally said, "I'll think about it."
The following day was a perfect day for picnic.
When the appointed time came, Theodore appeared at Ariana's door on time and rang the doorbell.
But after he waited for a long time, there was still no answer. No one came to open the door.
Was she still in bed? He wondered, glancing at the watch on his wrist.
Just then, his phone rang. It was Ariana.
Theodore answered the phone and asked in a gentle voice, "Are you awake? I'm outside right now."
"I got up early! I'm downstairs, and Horace has arrived too."
Theodore was a little surprised. The excitement in her voice made him assume that she was really looking forward to their date. This bettered his mood almost instantly.
When he went downstairs, he saw Horace standing a distance away, next to a bright pink car with a strange look on his face.
Even the car was well prepared. It seemed that love was quite capable of inspiring romance in a woman's heart.
The optimistic grin on Theodore's face widened. Ignoring the mortified and tense Horace, he directed the wheelchair to the side of the car, staring at it. This was the first time he ever thought a pink car could look so beautiful.
The car window rolled down, revealing Ariana's gorgeous face. She was in a lovely summer dress today, with daisy-shaped earrings twinkling from her earlobes. Her smile seemed more radiant than the sun in the clear blue sky.
"What are you waiting for? Get in the car!"
Theodore's heart leaped. He tried to calm himself down and glanced at Horace.
