Chapter: 798
“What?” Sarah was incensed by the news. “Your condition is apparent.
Concealing it isn’t an option. Moreover, this isn’t solely your concern.”
Sarah’s anger escalated with every word. She pledged, “If he doesn’t wish for a child, I’ll adopt your
baby! I’m capable of supporting you and both kids. I’m serious!”
Sarah’s declaration left Ariana conflicted between tears and laughter.
Despite the whirlwind of emotions, she felt an overwhelming warmth from Sarah’s words.
Simultaneously, Ariana realized she couldn’t delay the inevitable. For the sake of her unborn children,
she had to gather courage.
If Theodore decided against keeping the baby, she would depart with her children.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAriana resolved to convey her decision to Theodore once the crisis at Anderson Group was resolved in
the upcoming days.
As the sun slipped beyond the horizon and twilight approached, Ariana was yet to return. Theodore and
Horace had already made themselves at home in her apartment.
The duo had taken over the kitchen. Horace, with an iPad clutched in his hand, read aloud the
instructions for stewing beef with red wine, maintaining an impeccable poker face.
As he watched Theodore, heavy-handed with the salt, he sent a silent prayer to the heavens for
Ariana’s well-being and contemplated if a preemptive call to the doctor might be in order.
Upon observing Theodore’s struggle with a piece of steak, Horace cautiously proposed, “Boss, perhaps
we could have the hotel send over some prepared dishes?”
To his surprise, Theodore responded solemnly, “No. It is said that the most sincere way to express love
is through a well-cooked meal.
Furthermore, hotel food lacks a certain wholesome quality. I need to ensure she’s well fed.”
Confronted with Theodore’s earnestness, Horace glanced at the unfortunate steak once more. He
toyed with the idea of offering further advice but ultimately opted for silence. He put on a professional
smile, secretly feeling sorry for Ariana.
Suddenly, Horace’s phone buzzed. It was a call from Mercy Hospital.
After a brief conversation, Horace relayed to Theodore, “Mercy Hospital just informed me that the
medication we submitted has been tested. We can pick up the report at our convenience.”
Theodore, engrossed in his culinary endeavor, merely nodded. “Alright. You can handle that and then
head home. I have everything under control here.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Understood.”
A short while after Horace departed, Ariana returned.
The sight of the table spread with a veritable feast left her pleasantly stunned. She was amazed at
Theodore’s quick evolution from a novice at three dishes and a soup to an adept steak chef.
Each dish, to her surprise, was her favorite.
A rush of joy overwhelmed Ariana. She ran over and enveloped Theodore in a warm embrace,
pressing her face into his chest. “How did you know I’d return famished?”
Grinning, Theodore leaned in to plant a tender kiss on her forehead. He then playfully ruffled her hair,
saying, “Let’s eat.”
They settled down to a delightful, candlelit dinner, their Laughter filling the room. They tactfully skirted
the contentious issue of the previous night: having a child.
