Chapter 1963
No matter how one put it, a woman who acted coquettishly would live the best life. Even | could not bear to
reject Nicky's coquettish display, let alone
a man.
Theo was cold, but he instantly turned into a gentle and pleasant little sheep in the face of his wife. He nodded.
"l got it."
Nicky took his arm, her eyes filled with pride when they were directed toward me. The two then went upstairs
together. Laughing at myself, | held my cup of water and followed them upstairs.
At the door of the study, Nicky was still holding onto Theo's hand reluctantly, and her expression evoked pity.
"Theo, are you still going to stay in the study?"
Hearing this, my pupils dilated slightly. Did Nicky mean that Theo had been staying in the study these days and
had not been sleeping with her?
| quietly hid to one side and listened to their conversation carefully.

"You were there when the doctor gave his orders. You heard what he said. It's so that my wound recovers as soon
as possible." Theo's tone was very light. He feared that if he were to speak in a serious tone even in the
slightest, it would make Nicky feel that she was not valued.
Nicky pressed her lips together. She held Theo's hand tightly and refused to let go. "But it's been so many days
and your wound hasn't gotten any better.sleeping alone every day makes it seem like I'm a widow."
She was really proactive.
If it were not for Theo's wound, it was likely that Nicky would have gobbled him up on the first day.
| shook my head and continued to observe them.
"It's getting better. It's been relatively painless these two days. There'll be ample tfor us in the future. Why
are you in such a hurry?"
Theo asked back, and Nicky could only nod her head, but there was no smile on her face, only melancholy. She
stroked the wound on Theo's forehead. "I hope your wound will heal sooner. Don't makewait too long."
She said in a shy tone, and her entire face looked as delicate as a flower.
| would have been too lazy to continue observing them if I had not wanted to know the reason. Enduring my
discomfort toward Nicky, | stood firmly and craned my head to glance at Theo.
His handsface was particularly
calm. Even when faced with such a shy Nicky, Theo seemed calm. He just patted Nicky's hand. "Alright, go back
to your room to rest. You have work tomorrow." .net
"Alright, good night."
"Good night."
Nicky was expecting a good night kiss, but Theo closed the study door right after saying good night. After having
the door closed in her face, she pouted her lips slightly and that madelaugh out loud.
She probably heard my voice and ctowardfollowing my voice. When she saw it was me, her expression
was none too pretty at all. "Why are you here?"
She seemed to have thought of the answer immediately not long after she asked the question. She glared at me
again. "You were spying on us?!"
"It's not spying. I've been standing
here the entire time. It's because you
two were talking too loudly. There
was nothing | could do even if
didn't want to hear you two," said lightly with a fearless attitude.
Nicky bit her lower lip, her eyes filled with hostility when she looked at me.
| was used to this face of hers. | glanced at her lightly and smiled. "So, you haven't gotten Theo. You haven't
even gotten the chance to get into the sbed with him."
| could not stop the smile on my face when | learne of this. | was ecstatic.
Hearing my words, Nicky's expression turned even uglier as she frowned. "Theo is injured. We're sleeping
separately for the sake of his wound. Stop talking nonsense."
She walked away, leavingstanding there alone. | looked in the direction of the study, a smile still on my
lips...
