Chapter 436 I Am Willing

Phoebe tried to dodge but couldn't; Theodore's sharp teeth nipped her ear, causing a sting.

She elbowed him hard, making him grunt, and broke free.

Without a word, Phoebe grabbed a tissue, wiped her ear, and tossed it at him before walking out.

Theodore rubbed his chest, glaring at her with that stubborn arrogance. He really wanted to pin her against the wardrobe door. He closed his eyes, imagining it, feeling like he might explode.

Better to wait. Phoebe was too thin right now.

Theodore grabbed a down jacket from the wardrobe, slung it over his arm, and followed Phoebe to the dining room.

Breakfast was ready, and Phoebe sat down.

Ollie jumped onto her lap, meowing affectionately.

Phoebe glanced at Theodore as he entered. She fed Ollie a small dried fish and placed the cat in Theodore's spot.

Theodore saw Ollie in his seat and squinted at Phoebe.

Seeing her mischievous smirk, he knew he could move Ollie if he wanted to.

But he let her have her moment, not wanting her to sulk and get sick.

Theodore sat across from Phoebe and said, "There's a meeting this morning. You'll take the minutes, and then I'll have Carol Olsen transfer the business to you ASAP."
