Chapter 352

Although he didn’t speak, this gesture was worth a thousand words, instantly healing Thea’s broken heart.

“Thank you. I made you laugh.” She said shyly.

“Well, let’s have dinner,” the man said softly.

Thea picked up the chopsticks and looked at the table full of delicious dishes, but she didn’t know which one to pick. Suddenly, she laughed at herself and said, “When I was young, my family was quite poor. I often went with my brother Theodore to collect mineral water bottles and sell them so that we could buy big steamed buns and buns. I remember Theodore once told me that in the future, he would study hard and earn a lot of money so that I could have endless food, clothes, and a house. At that time, I thought this wish was like a mirage, never thinking that when we grew up, Theodore and I could also become rich and escape poverty.”

The man’s chopsticks froze in the air, “Your younger brother was very fortunate.”

Thea smiled and corrected, “Actually, I was very happy.”

The man’s expression suddenly became serious and he said, “Do you have a good relationship with him?”

“That was natural. We relied on each other and saved each other when we were children. She was the most trustworthy person in this world,” Thea said firmly.

The man then became silent for some unknown reason.

After a long time, he suddenly said a meaningful sentence, “In this world, having strong feelings for someone will only result in greater pain when parting ways. I advise you not to care too much about someone with all your heart and eyes.”

Thea strongly objected, “If it were in the past, I would have agreed with you. However, my family Theodore taught me to trust someone again.”

The man froze.

And then, barely audible, a sigh escaped.

The man’s phone, placed on the table, suddenly vibrated. The name “Jewel” kept jumping on the screen.

Thea was stunned, “You and Jewel…”

The man did not directly confront her response.

“Sorry, I’ll take a call first.”

Thea indicated that he went as he pleased.

The man picked up his phone and placed it next to his ear.

Jewel’s voice may have been too loud, amplified through the microphone, “Honey, where are you? Today’s severe weather has destroyed many buildings, and some individuals are in danger, with many others trapped. I am currently in the outskirts and unable to escape. Can you come and pick me up, please?”

The man had no expression, but Thea was aware that the pressure around him had cooled.

“Address, I had my assistant come to pick you up.”
