Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence by Ken Slaner

Chapter: 862
Hearing Holden’s name, Theodore felt a surge of nervousness, but he managed to maintain composure. “Yes, I’ve heard of him,”
he responded, trying to downplay much familiarity with Holden.
When Ariana heard this, she turned to him and asked, “Is Holden wearing a mask? Did he ever have it rough?”
Theodore lifted an eyebrow in mild displeasure at her repeated inquiries about his other identity, Holden.
Ariana, though, seemed oblivious to it all. “He is such a mysterious guy?
As she persisted, Theodore’s irritation grew. With his eyes fixed on Ariana, he reached out and grabbed her by the waist, asking,
“Are you so interested in Holden?”
Ariana could feel the jealousy brewing inside Theodore, which brought a smile to her face. She averted her gaze and drawled,
“Not really.”
“If so, then why the questions?” Theodore shot back, his displeasure evident as he playfully nudged her face back toward him,
Unable to contain her Laughter, Ariana stood on her tiptoes and pinched Theodore’s cheek, teasingly saying, “Alright, I was just
fishing for something.”
“What is it?” Theodore asked, his curiosity piqued as he looked at her with raised eyebrows.
A mischievous thought crossed Ariana’s mind, and she pretended to be enigmatic, refusing to reveal her secret. With a grin, she
looked at Theodore and said, “That’s for me to know and for you to find out!”

“Is it?” Theodore raised an eyebrow and leaned down, stealing a swift kiss from her Lips. “Will you tell me now?”
Ariana raised an eyebrow and shook her head, keeping the mystery alive.
Theodore leaned down again and swiftly kissed her, repeating the process until Ariana was breathless and laughing, begging
him to stop.
“Okay, okay! I just feel that Holden wears a mask of hypocrisy,” Ariana finally confessed.
Theodore froze. Hearing this evaluation from Ariana surprised and puzzled him. He couldn’t help but wonder what had transpired
to make her perceive Holden as insincere.
“Why would you say that about him?” Theodore asked, feeling a pang of hurt.
Unaware of the change in Theodore’s tone, Ariana continued her analysis, “I stumbled upon some rumors about Holden before.
Someone told me that Holden had a tragic past, disfigured in a childhood fire, forced to wear a mask forever, and suffering from
social anxiety due to betrayal by a trusted caregiver. It sounded heart-wrenching.”
Ariana’s tone then turned indignant as she continued, “But later, I spoke to a respected senior who knew Holden well, and
according to her, he isn’t disfigured at all, and his personality is far from what is known.”
Ariana placed her hands on her hips and snorted before saying, “Don’t you think he’s a two-faced person? Why would he play
the victim in front of others? That’s quite a personality!”
She spoke confidently, but Theodore was getting uneasy by the second!
Disfigured in a fire and betrayed?! He had no inkling of any such tales.

However, he soon realized that Jennifer was spinning yarns. He clenched his fist, boiling with anger, already plotting to settle
scores with her later.
Yet facing Ariana, he found himself at a loss for words, unable to divulge the situation.
Thinking Theodore’s silence was due to their business partnership, Ariana dropped the topic, not pressing further.
She leaned in and planted a kiss on Theodore’s cheek, saying with a smile, “Enough about them. I’LL go hunt down Judy and
see if there are any midnight snacks.”
