Chapter 365 Do You Hate Me Now?

Theodore couldn't shake the feeling that Phoebe's smile had a touch of sadness. But could she really be sad? She was usually the one making others feel that way. "Get out!" Theodore snapped.

Phoebe's eyes looked misty and dull.She cast Theodore a lingering gaze before turning to depart.

Theodore closed his eyes, trying to calm the panic inside him. He pulled Vanessa off him. "Don't move. Do you want to hurt your leg more?"

Vanessa was pushed back onto the bed. She looked at him with tearful eyes. "I'm sorry, Theodore. I know I've caused trouble, but Ms. Ziegler shouldn't have wished me dead." Theodore's irritation grew. "Vanessa, focus on getting better. We'll talk later."

Vanessa was stunned, her tears falling faster. "Do you hate me now, Theodore?"

Honestly, Theodore did find Vanessa annoying. He had backed Hank's movie just to support her, but she messed it up by falling from the wire.

Theodore sat down, staring at Vanessa.

Vanessa felt unsettled beneath his stare."Please don't hate me, Theodore. I'll act better once I'm healed."

"What do you really want, Vanessa?" Theodore asked.

Vanessa stared at him, forgetting to cry. 'I just want you,' she thought. But she knew saying it out loud would push him away.

"I don't know," she replied.

"Think before you speak. This is your only chance," Theodore said.

Vanessa's defenses crumbled, and she cried harder. "I want to be a superstar."
