Chapter 719 Do You Need a Beating?

Jack drove the car over and parked it in front of them. Just as he was about to get out, Theodore gestured for him to stay put. Jack sat back down, and Theodore personally opened the back door, helping Phoebe into the car. Phoebe had arrived in a Mercedes, but now she was leaving in a Rolls-Royce, with a different person by her side.

She was still wrapped in Theodore's suit jacket, making her face look even more gaunt.

Theodore stared at her for a moment. Just as Phoebe was about to lose control, he suddenly said, "You seem to eat a lot, so why are you so skinny?"

Phoebe was speechless for a moment.

Theodore either didn't speak, or when he did, it was to make someone choke.

"Being able to eat without gaining weight is a blessing. Those actresses would be envious," Phoebe said.

"It's uncomfortable to hold," Theodore replied.

Phoebe rolled her eyes and thought to herself, 'Who asked you to hold me?'

Phoebe turned to look at the dazzling street scene outside the car window, ignoring Theodore.

After a while, Phoebe felt a finger hook onto hers. She looked down to see Theodore's distinct knuckle. When she tried to pull her hand back, his finger hooked onto hers.
