Forbidden Passion

Chapter 352 Bring Phoebe to the Hospital for Me

Theodore glanced at Vanessa. She had her hair in a ponytail, no makeup, dark circles under her eyes, and looked exhausted. This was a big change from her usual cheerful self. Now, she looked more like a tired housewife.

Seeing Theodore look over, Vanessa gave a shy smile. "Grandma, I'm happy to help. Theodore doesn't need to thank me."

"No way," Taylor said. "Look at Vanessa; she's lost so much weight from exhaustion. Even Phoebe doesn't take care of Theodore as well as she does." Theodore knew Taylor was unhappy with Phoebe. He snapped, "Wasn't Phoebe called to Starfall City by Brandon?"

He meant that if Phoebe were here, no one else would need to take care of him.

Vanessa's smile froze. She looked at Theodore awkwardly, but he didn't look back.

They all knew Phoebe would never come to take care of Theodore, yet he still defended her in front of the Reynolds family.

Taylor, frustrated, turned to Brandon. "Couldn't you have called Theodore before sending Phoebe to Starfall City?"

Brandon replied, "I just wanted to surprise Theodore."

"Thanks," Theodore said flatly. "It was more of a shock than a surprise."

Brandon fell silent.

Vanessa, feeling ignored, said, "Taylor, Brandon, Sarah, since Theodore is awake, I'll head back now."

"Alright," Taylor said, noticing Vanessa's sad expression. "Madison, see Vanessa off. Vanessa, you've worked hard these past few days."

Vanessa forced a smile and glanced at Theodore. Seeing he had no intention of asking her to stay, she held back her sadness and left the ward.

Taylor quickly nudged Madison. "Madison, check on her."
