Forbidden Passion

Chapter 818 As Long As It's Not Theodore

Phoebe was overwhelmed with mixed emotions. Ever since she talked to Theodore

about sleeping with a male escort, he hadn't shown up again.

She knew that with Theodore's pride, he would never come looking for her. Yet, she felt an inexplicable sense of loss.

Seeing her lying there motionless, Cindy poked her with a finger, "What are you thinking about?"

Phoebe snapped out of it, looking a bit confused, "I was thinking about how my mom, such a soft-hearted person, will manage to hold out against Mr. Ziegler this time."

Cindy recalled the scene of Evelyn chasing Harper with a broom earlier and couldn't help but laugh, "Evelyn's temper is still the same after all these years."

After chatting for a bit, the conversation returned to Theodore. Cindy turned her head and asked, "What were you thinking, just telling him like that?"

With Theodore's pride and self-esteem, he definitely couldn't handle it. She was desperate to divorce him, and right after the divorce, she slept with a male escort. Who was she trying to spite?

Phoebe sat up next to her, looking at the moonlight outside the window, "He already knows about the kids. How they came into the picture doesn't matter anymore."

Cindy sighed, "You really don't understand men."

She thought that Theodore, being silent these past few days, might be up to something. When he had the time, Phoebe might be in trouble.

"It doesn't matter. I just want to see the kids grow up safely," she said, looking back at the sleeping Hubert, Boris, and Noomi with a gentle gaze, "Sometimes I want them to grow up quickly, and other times I wish they would stay little forever."

"Mothers are always so conflicted. By the way, there's something else. I don't know if you've heard," Cindy suddenly said.

Phoebe was puzzled, "What is it?"

"Queen Entertainment's scandalous photos made headlines nationwide, and they were facing bankruptcy. But I heard a mysterious person invested in Vanessa, and the company came back to life, settling in Greenwood Tower across from Kedora TV station," Cindy said, with a gossiping tone.
