| furrowed my eyebrows. "What happened back then?" "Stop pretending!" She pointed at my nose angrily. "
Nancy and Matthew who were both present there at the tare both dead. | have no reason to expose scandals
like that to ruin my own reputation, so that leaves you."
She grew more and more agitated as she spoke. She then picked up another cup from the coffee table to hurl it
at me.
There was no way | could dodge the cup from such a close distance. It would be no small matter if the ceramic
cup smashed my head, so | quickly raised my arms to shield my face.
The pain | anticipated did not come. | slowly opened m y eyes and saw a tall and straight back in front of me.
Theo stood in front of me. The cup had hit his chest before falling to the floor and shattering.

He shook his head and pushedbehind him again. He looked at Quinn and asked in a cold voice, "What's
going on?" "Ask her!" Quinn was so angry that she screamed
herself hoarse. "No matter what, I’m still your cousin. She has to treatwith srespect even if she's your
wife. Why would you keep a woman like that?"
Theo's face grew sullen. "I want to know what's going o n. Why did you throw a cup at her face? | don't want to
hear your nonsense.”
"I merely threw a cup at her face but the things she did have completely wrecked my reputation!”
She grew emotional again. Theo frowned and turned around to ask me, "What exactly is going on?”
| shook my head helplessly. "I'm not sure either."
"Stop pretending!” Quinn raised her voice. "The reason why | married Matthew was written in the news report. It
was also written that | told Nancy the truth before she committed suicide. You're the only one aside fromwho
knows these things. Who else would've done this if not you?"
| did know these things but I did not expose it to the media nor mentioned it to anyone before-not even Theo.
| sighed. "I honestly didn't do it, Quinn.”
"You still refuse to admit it!" Quinn widened her eyes i n anger.
"Quinn!” Theo said in a cold voice. "Wanda said she didn’t do it. If you think she did it, then take out the
evidence. You can't suspect and harm her like this for no reason. Otherwise, | won't go easy on you."
"Theo Grant!" Quinn looked incredulously at him." How can you choose to believe her and not me? I'm your
cousin-your family!"
Theo was unmoved. "Wanda, you, and | are a family. Don’t suspect your own family without evidence."
Having said that, he pulled my hand and tookupstairs.

Theo raised his eyebrows. "You're taking the initiative?"
"I'm not in the mood for jokes." | rolled my eyes at him. "I want to see the part where the cup hit you."
"It's okay, you don't have to see it." He bent down to hug me. "Besides, I'm a man-not a soft and tender lady
who cries after getting hit by a cup."
| pursed my lips without a word.
He letgo, removing his tie. "You're really not the one who did it?"
| narrowed my eyes. "Are you suspecting me?"
"I'm not suspecting you." Theo let out a faint chuckle." Even if you did it, | wouldn't blyou. But if you did i t,
then you can just admit it towithout hiding." | frowned unhappily. "I didn’t do it."
