Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence by Ken Slaner

Chapter: 289
The phone kept ringing incessantly, as Theodore looked at it in irritation. He was about to dismiss the call and put an end to the
persistent ringing, but something made him hesitate. There was no caller ID or name mentioned on the screen, and yet he felt
compelled to answer. After a moment’s hesitation, he pressed the answer button.
“Hello, Ariana.”
The voice that echoed through the phone was young, vibrant, and brimming with energy, like the first rays of sunshine on a cold
winter morning. It was a voice that Theodore did not recognize, nor did he like it one bit.
As the words sank in, his face darkened, and he felt an overwhelming urge to break the phone in his hand. He squeezed it
tightly, his knuckles turning white, his mind racing with thoughts of rage and jealousy. ©
In her room, Ariana vented her pent-up emotions by fiercely pummeling her toy bear as if it were Theodore himself.
With each blow, her anger intensified, fueled by her own self-blame for being too cowardly to hear Theodore’s answer. But as
she ranted and raged, her thoughts shifted to Theodore and the possibility that he might be a flirtatious playboy, which only
fueled her ire further.
Despite her determination to stay away from Theodore, fate seemed to have other plans.
Theodore had returned to her life and was now living across the hall. He was now free to roam about in front of her all day, just
as he had done in the Anderson family’s mansion, and this thought only fueled her frustration.

Ariana collapsed onto the bed, her eyes glued to the ceiling, feeling hopeless and powerless. She couldn’t fathom what
Theodore was trying to achieve with his actions.
The thought of him being with Helen tormented her mind, and his sudden appearance had only brought more confusion and
frustration.
“Douchebag! Jerk. A playboy!”
With trembling lips and tears in her eyes, Ariana let out a guttural scream, venting out her anger and resentment.
Her mind was in turmoil as she berated herself for getting so emotional over Theodore. She knew better than to let her emotions
get the best of her, especially with a baby on the way. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself, determined to keep her
composure.
With her emotions under control, Ariana took a refreshing shower and changed into her comfortable pajamas. She crawled into
bed, her mind now racing with thoughts of work.
Suddenly, she remembered that she had forgotten to inform Betsy that Tyler would be coming to sign the contract tomorrow. She
searched for her phone, but it was nowhere to be found.
Panic overtook Ariana, and she started patting her head, hoping to retrieve the lost phone from her muddled thoughts. She heard
somewhere that pregnancy could cause a lack of focus, and at this moment, she realized how true it could be.
She left the phone at Theodore’s apartment as they had dinner just now.
Ariana cursed herself for her forgetfulness and glanced at the clock on the wall.

With her loose pajamas on, she contemplated getting changed but decided against it as time was slipping away. Without a
second thought, she shuffled toward Theodore’s apartment with her slippers clacking loudly against the floor. She rang his
doorbell.
At last, after what felt like an eternity, the door creaked open, revealing Theodore.
Theodore sat in his wheelchair, staring blankly at Ariana without any hint of emotion or words. However, Ariana’s intuition alerted
her that something was off, that he was irritated.
“[ think I left my phone here. Can you help me fetch it? I’ll appreciate it.” Ariana fidgeted with the hem of her dress, her lips dry,
as she made her request.
