Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 334

Theresa was furious, but Thomas just laughed harder.

Theresa pushed him toward the door, “Get out, just get out of here!”

Thomas stood still, unmoved.

“You…” Theresa was about to lose her temper.

Thomas quickly explained, “Theresa, there’s been a misunderstanding. I lost feelings for Monica a long time ago. Initially, she was relentless in pestering Ben. But things changed after we made our relationship public. She started bombarding me with odd messages, which led me to block her. The only reason she reached out recently is because she used someone else’s phone.”

Theresa’s face showed no emotion as she replied, “Oh really? You’re over her, right? Then explain those affectionate hugs that hit the headlines. I can’t imagine what it would be like if you still had feelings.”

Thomas grabbed her hand, “Theresa, that wasn’t me. I did rush to the scene, but I just stood under the

building for a while and then left.”

“Really?” Theresa looked at him skeptically.

Thomas nodded with a serious look. “I rushed over there because the person on the phone mentioned Monica was going on about a famous actress stealing her boyfriend just before she jumped. I was concerned her wild accusations would damage your reputation, so I didn’t waste a minute getting there.”

Theresa’s expression softened slightly and asked Thomas, “Why didn’t you tell me this before?”

Thomas let out a wry smile. “I didn’t want to worry you. Plus, I figured I could handle it on my own.”

Theresa felt a flicker of emotion in her heart and thought, ‘So, this was why Thomas had left in a hurry!‘

Theresa’s guard was beginning to lower, yet she remained inquisitive. She asked Thomas with a hint of curiosity, “Why did you just linger beneath the tall building before leaving?”

cough and said, “Well, we’ve got Ben to thank for that.”

“Ben?” Theresa was surprised.

Thomas hurriedly explained, “Remember how Monica harassed Ben several times? Ben holds grudges. He wouldn’t let her off easily.”

“So, what exactly happened?” This wasn’t unfolding how Theresa expected, and now she’s really intrigued.

“He did one thing,” said Thomas. “He brought Monica’s ex back.”

Theresa was stunned, “The ex in the news? It wasn’t you?”

Thomas appeared innocent as he explained, “It’s just a coincidence that the other guy was wearing a white shirt too. But trust me, it wasn’t me. And I’m definitely not her ex.”

Theresa began to believe him, her expression softening further.

guy was actually eyeing the Lynn family’s fortune. Despite Monica’s deep love, her family refused to loosen their purse strings. In a drastic move, Monica faked her death to leave with him.
