Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 159 Fell Out With Kaelyn

"Theo, I was really surprised to get your message," Kaelyn said with a gentle smile. "Now that I'm here, what do you want to do?"

She reached out to touch his face, but Theo abruptly opened his eyes and tilted his head away, avoiding her hand.

Kaelyn gave an awkward smile, pulling her hand back. "What's the matter, Theo? You seem upset."

Theo's voice was cold. "So, you're not going to tell me? What about all the comforting words you gave me back then? Do you still remember them."

Kaelyn fought down the panic rising in her chest and replied, "Of course I do."
