Forbidden Passion

Chapter 350 The Ruthless Theodore

Madison was clearly more excited to see Vanessa. She ran over, linked arms with her, and gave her a once-over. "Vanessa, you've lost so much weight. Is it because you've been taking care of Theodore?" Sarah and Taylor both looked at Vanessa and noticed she had indeed slimmed down. Vanessa, who usually took great care of her appearance, now had dark circles under her eyes. Vanessa smiled. "Not really."

"You really have lost weight. Grandma, Mom, look at Vanessa. She must have been working too hard taking care of Theodore," Madison chimed in, praising Vanessa in front of Sarah and Taylor. Sarah took Vanessa's hand. "Vanessa, thank you for your hard work. When Theodore is discharged, come over to our house for dinner."

Vanessa smiled shyly. "Thank you, Grandma. If I have time, I'll definitely come."

With Madison's help, Sarah's attitude toward Vanessa had warmed up. Vanessa's trip abroad seemed to have been a good move.

Sarah patted the back of Vanessa's hand and then entered the elevator with Taylor.

Madison leaned closer to Vanessa and whispered, "Don't fret. I'll speak highly of you to my mother and grandmother."

Vanessa gave Madison a grateful smile.

As the elevator doors closed, Vanessa jogged back to the hospital room.

Vanessa always knew that dating was between two people, but marriage involved two families. Winning over the elders of the Reynolds family was half the battle.

When Vanessa returned to the hospital room, she saw Theodore leaning against the headboard with an IV in his hand. She quickly hid her satisfaction and walked over briskly. Theodore glanced at her. "Did Sarah and the others leave?"

"They're very worried about you," Vanessa said, sitting down by the bed with an apple in her hand. "Do you want some fruit? I'll go wash it."

"I don't want any," Theodore said flatly. "Vanessa, I remember Mr. Black's film is about to start shooting. You should go back and prepare to join the cast."

She looked at Theodore stiffly. "Theodore, I want to stay with you." "There are doctors and
