Chapter 291

"Theo, can you go out and make the call? I want to sleep.” I could not bring myself to hear him ask for the shirt back from Mason.

He ignored me. The call was answered after just a few rings. Mason's usual cold voice rang out, "Is there something wrong?”

"Wanda lent you a shirt last time. I want you to send it over because I want to wear it."

As expected of Theo. The way he spoke was concise and to the point-righteous and direct without a single hint of embarrassment.

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone. Mason was probably astounded by his words and only spoke after a long time. Even though his tone was the same, I could detect a hint of tremor. "Are you so poor that you can't even afford to buy clothes now?”

"I can afford it, but I want that specific shirt." Theo was shameless and stubborn.
