Chapter 191

Take myself, for example. Although I missed living in the old house with Mom, I had not gone back because I understood that Mom was not at home and she was n o longer around. I must move on and continue with m y life.

I did not look at Tyler anymore after saying those words and turned around to enter the villa.

Theo stepped aside to let me in, then closed the door.

Miss Woods heard the movement and rushed out. She was unable to stop herself from wiping her tears when she saw me. "You're finally back. You didn't suffer a lot when you were out there, did you? Thank goodness you’re all back. This finally looks like a home again."

Perhaps there had been no one at home to talk to her, which was why Miss Woods was constantly chattering about. I sat in the living room and answered her from time to time, whereas Theo sat on the other side of the couch. He neither said a word nor left. It was hard to tell what he was feeling.

After a very long time, Miss Woods patted her head." Gosh, I was so excited that I forgot that it's noon now. I'll go fix you something real quick." "I've eaten, Miss Woods. I'm going upstairs to take a

rest." I had woken up very early in the morning and was easily tired in summer, hence all I wanted to do at the moment was go upstairs to take a nap.

"Alright then. Go and have a rest. I’ll make the food so you can come down and have it when you’re hungry." Miss Woods entered the kitchen cheerfully.

I did not talk to Theo and got up to go upstairs.
