Chapter 120 You Don't Want To Marry Me Anymore, Do You?

As night fell, the black Mercedes-Benz drove into Gerbera Residence in Yoreast Hills Garden. It stopped in front of the fountain by the entrance. Moses got out from the passenger seat, opened the door to the back seat, and said, "Mr. Godfrey." Theodore stepped out of the car. As he got out of the car, he buttoned his suit and headed straight into the villa.

Dinner was ready. Mrs. Godfrey saw Theodore return but did not show much joy on her face. She said faintly, "You're back?"

"Yes." Theodore took off his jacket and passed it to the servant next to him. He sat in his seat and looked at Josephine, but did not say a word.

Josephine initially wanted to greet him, but when she saw how cold he was, her face stiffened.

Mrs. Godfrey sensed how weird the atmosphere was and spoke. "You have not been home for a few days. Is work getting busier?" "It's fine. Just the usual."

Whether it was work or personal matters, Theodore had never been the one to complain. He was harsh towards his subordinates and employees, but he was even harsher on himself. Therefore, his employees had no reason to complain. Mrs. Godfrey really admired this side of him.

"No matter how busy you are at work, you should take care of your health. You cannot faint as you did before. You have to know that you are not only representing yourself, but also the whole Godfrey Group and the stocks that come with it." Theodore frowned slightly.

This was why the Godfrey family was not affectionate. The first thing that his mother was worried about when her son fainted was not his health, but how it affected the group. No other mother would be like this.

Mrs. Godfrey did not seem to notice Theodore's displeasure. She waved her hand to call the maid over. "Theodore, Josephine made this soup especially for you. It's good for nourishment. Try it."

"No need. I'm not hungry," Theodore's voice was as cold as ever and he had an indifferent expression in his eyes.

Josephine's face turned a little pale and she had no idea what to do.

Mrs. Godfrey could not stand it anymore. "Josephine cared so much for you that she worked through the afternoon to make the soup for you. You could at least taste it. There will always be fights. Haven't you had enough of it? Josephine is not even married to you yet. If the Bailey family hears about this, they will think that the Godfrey family is treating their daughter-in-law poorly."

Usually, even if he did not have any appetite, he would drink it out of courtesy so as to not embarrass Josephine.
