Forbidden Passion

Chapter 396 Mr. Reynolds' Sweet Nothings

Theodore had never really thought about it before and was momentarily speechless, realizing it wasn't impossible.

Theodore: [Isn't this a bit much?]

Patrick didn't hold back. Patrick: [How long has WhatsApp been around, and you just posted your first status? Living in the past much?] The conversation veered off course, and they ended up arguing in the chat, only to realize it was pointless.

Theodore: [I'm going to sleep with my wife now. Have fun.]

Patrick sent a bunch of speechless emojis, which Theodore mocked. He put his phone on the coffee table and looked at the sleeping Phoebe. Theodore thought for a moment and checked Phoebe's status updates. She had a lot, but most were work-related and boring.

He exited WhatsApp, looked at Phoebe's peaceful face, and whispered, "How did you make your status updates even more boring than mine?" After Vanessa posted a photo of her wearing a diamond ring, she kept checking her phone.

Vanessa knew Phoebe wouldn't block her, just like she secretly followed Phoebe's updates. Whatever Phoebe posted, Vanessa would sneak a peek. Almost everyone had such secret thoughts, and Vanessa was no exception.

So when she saw the photos Phoebe posted of the cat and Theodore, Vanessa wanted to smash her phone. She opened the image of Theodore.

Especially when she thought about the cat calling Theodore "Papa" and Phoebe "Mommy," Vanessa was jealous that she could scream.

Why did Theodore have to treat her this way?

Phoebe's status update didn't hurt Vanessa the most. Her heart broke more when Theodore made a status update.
