Chapter: 679
Ariana cast her gaze downward, her hand instinctively resting on her abdomen.
Although she had repeatedly counselled herself to be patient, her patience was beginning to fray. ©
Their ongoing separation only intensified her yearning for him. Despite reminding herself to remain patient and calm, the thought
of Theodore would sporadically invade her mind.
She ached for his presence and missed him with every passing second. ©
Moreover, the unborn children within her were awaiting her decision. Time wouldn’t stand still for anyone, and she wished to
make this decision in conjunction with the children’s father. ©
“Madam, now that you’re feeling better, how about returning to Mr. Anderson’s residence? I’ve made all your favorite dishes, and
it’ll be easier to care for you there,” Judy suggested. She was overjoyed at Ariana’s recovery, but also concerned that Ariana
might choose not to return to Theodore’s house, opting to stay elsewhere instead. She feared their continued separation might
cause a rift between the young couple.
The mention of Theodore’s residence ignited a spark in Ariana’s eyes. She grabbed Judy’s arm, eagerly asking, “Has Theodore
been staying there recently?”
For the past two weeks, she had consciously refrained from inquiring about him. As a result, she had no idea how he was doing.

This was the first time she had voiced her concerns in days. ©
Regrettably, Judy could only shake her head, displaying a troubled expression.
Ariana froze for a moment before shifting her gaze towards Horace.
Horace met Ariana’s probing gaze but could only reciprocate with a bitter smile and reveal, “We haven’t seen the boss in half a
month. Even I’m unsure of his whereabouts.”
The fact that even Horace was clueless about Theodore’s location was startling.
Could something have transpired with Theodore?
Ariana’s heart jolted. The worry etched into her face was visible. She couldn’t help but ask, “Did anyone check the suburban
manor?”
“We did, but the boss wasn’t there,” Horace responded. Ariana’s distressed expression suggested she was on the verge of tears.
He swiftly reassured her, “Don’t worry, Madam. The boss should be alright. He’s been managing company business remotely
every day.” ©
Horace’s words left Ariana’s feelings in turmoil, akin to a roller coaster ride.
She took a deep breath to regain her composure. So, for the past two weeks, even though Theodore’s whereabouts remained
unknown, he had been fulfilling his professional obligations as usual?
Accold, bitter laugh escaped Ariana, causing Horace to cringe internally.
Horace knew that if Theodore didn’t show up soon, he might be on the fast track to divorce. He might indeed lose his wife.
Finally, under the concerned gazes of Judy and Horace, Ariana turned to Sarah.
“May I stay with you?” ©
