Chapter 142 He's A Thousand Times Better Than You

Hearing Elyse's words, Theo's eyes widened in surprise.

Gritting his teeth, he fumed, "What on earth do you see in this cripple? For heaven's sake, I'm way better than he is, yet you're choosing him over me."

Elyse scoffed and retorted, "He is a thousand times better than,"

Her words pierced Theo's heart and caused him to suddenly place a hand on his chest and begin

to gasp. Stunned, Richie said nervously, "Don't tell me Mr. Ward is having a heart attack!"

Elyse shook her head and replied through gritted teeth, "No, he's most likely just incredibly pissed at me!"

Shaking his head, Jayden took out his phone with the intent of summoning an ambulance but paused when Theo stumbled away. Observing Theo as he walked away, Richie couldn't help but let out a sigh. Theo looked like a lion who

had tried to get himself a lioness and got bashed in the face. He looked devoid of any iota of pride portrayed the very definition of depression and defeat. With another sigh, this time inward, Richie turned his head toward Elyse and Jayden and saw just as the former shook off the latter's hand in a hostile manner.
