Chapter 97 MIRO

After Ryn left, Theon came back to his seat in the kitchen and went back to typing out emails. I, on the other hand, scanned my calendar for upcoming business meetings and events. Suddenly, Theon raised his head. "Was I too harsh on her?"

My eyes slowly trailed from my phone to his face. His expression was unreadable as usual but from the keen way he looked at me for answers, I could tell he really cared. "Why do you care?"

"NO

I turned around to look at him. "Why?"
