Theodore shut his eyes, and tried to control the fire burning in his heart.

"Stop laughing," he hissed.

His chest was almost bursting with anger.

Sydney coughed dryly, and said, "Fine, I'll stop laughing. I have no idea why Rose blocked you. Why don't I bring her along to our next meeting? I did ask Rose to come with me when I meet you. That's a good chance for you to ask her."

"In that case..." Theodore said, "let's meet tonight. Ask Rose along, too."

"I'll call her later and ask if she's free," Sydney promised.

"She is free," Theodore said. "She doesn't need to work now, and she has lots of time on her hands. If she says she's not free, it must be an excuse. Don't let her have her way."

The arrogance in Theodore's voice made Sydney furrow her brows.

"No wonder she blocked you."

"What?" Theodore furrowed his brows as well. "Do you know why she did it?"

Sydney sighed. "Son, it's because sometimes...you're annoying."
