Chapter: 439
She walked to the walk-in closet next to the bed. The walk-in closet was the complete opposite of the bedroom and it looked
lively. There were several clothes, and an unfinished glass of wine sat on the wooden table. Ariana leaned over and smelled the
wine. The smell of wine was sweet, as if it was just opened today.
Ariana was stunned by the number of expensive paint boxes in the walk-in closet.
Even more strange was the fact that there were more paint boxes than clothes in the closet.
She saw a frame covered in white fabric in front of the window. She walked over and removed the fabric from above the frame. It
was a painting. The landscape in the painting was very familiar to Ariana. It looked like the greenhouse, and there was a vague
silhouette in it.
As Ariana was busy thinking about the painting, her attention was suddenly drawn to the scenery outside the window. From
where she stood, she could see the flower field as well as the greenhouse.
Then suddenly the sound of the wheelchair came from outside. Ariana quickly went back to bed and pretended to be asleep.
After a while, Theodore climbed into bed. Ariana could feel his warm, familiar breath. His hand slowly wrapped around her waist
from behind, causing Ariana to tremble all over.
“What’s wrong?” Theodore asked when he noticed that Ariana was trembling.
Theodore’s hot chest that was pressed against Ariana’s back was driving her crazy, and she didn’t understand why she was
trembling all over.
Ariana had to tap into what little sanity she had left to come up with a convincing answer to Theodore’s question. “Your hands are
so cold.”
“Oh... sorry!” Theodore slowly kissed her earlobe and then withdrew his hands. He waited for the warmth of the bed to warm his
hands before hugging her again. This time he tured Ariana over and kissed her.
Since they had confessed their mutual feelings for each other, Theodore seemed to be unable to have enough of her.
He was like an addict who was lucky enough to have his drug beside him.
After a deep, languorous kiss, Theodore held Ariana in his arms and kissed her again from time to time.
The hot kiss made Ariana’s mind go blank, and she could no longer overthink.
“Horace told me that you called me a few days ago but my phone was powered off.
What happened?” Theodore asked gently, looking affectionately at the woman in his arms.
When Theodore mentioned this, Ariana became excited. She told Theodore the whole story of how her movie project was
rejected by Norton and how she planned to raise funds by attending the film festival.
Hearing that, Theodore was silent for a moment and it seemed like he was lost in thought. Then suddenly, he got up and asked
Ariana to get out of bed and help him get his laptop from the study.
The downside of pretending to be disabled was that he constantly needed someone else to help him with everything ©
He definitely had to find a way to get rid of the wheelchair as soon as possible and finally stand up.
When Ariana brought the laptop, Theodore immediately logged into the Anderson Group database but couldn’t find the said
movie project.
