Chapter: 555

“What did Marley say before she died?” Theodore suddenly asked.

Helen was taken aback by the question and she was shaking all over. Avoiding meeting Theodore’s

gaze, she said in a low voice, “Haven’t we made a deal? Once my heart operation is over and I’m fully

recovered, !’ll tell you everything. Isn’t that the case, Theodore?”

The ward was once again plunged into deep silence. Smiling, Theodore looked at Helen and said

nothing.

There was something about his smile that sent a deep chill in Helen’s heart. It was a fear that had

settled within her.

Helen knew Theodore very well and she knew he was never a kind person. She was aware of how

horrifying his means were.

Yet, she couldn’t help being infatuated with him. Even if he held the gun against her and threatened to

kill her, she would still love him. Deep down, Helen knew that her feelings for Theodore would

eventually lead to her demise, but even so, she couldn’t let go of those feelings. It was like a moth

flying towards the flame that would eventually consume it.

Helen’s relationship with Marley was the reason that Helen had the confidence to behave like this

towards Theodore in recent years. But how long could this situation last? She wasn’t sure and

therefore she was in a state of perpetual anxiety and fear of losing him. Her mind was like a very

tensed string, which could break at any moment.

Ariana was the last obstacle in her way.

Helen loved Theodore so much and she couldn’t stand other women getting close to him, let alone

taking him away. So, she had to get Ariana out of Anderson family.

Theodore kept silent for a long time. On her part, Helen kept her head down and dared not look at him.

She was afraid that he would see through her ambition and secret desire.

A good woman couldn’t have any ambition or secret desire. According to Theodore’s rules, she just

needed to listen and obey.

After a while, Theodore finally chuckled and said, “Sorry, I’m too anxious. I would keep my promise and

won’t bother you about this anymore. You can tell me everything after your heart surgery.”

“Theodore, I will actively cooperate with the doctors and get the heart surgery done as soon as

possible,” Helen said, looking at Theodore timidly.

Theodore nodded, his expression having softened a little. “I’ll ask the doctor to adjust the treatment

plan later,” he said.

“Can they treat the wound on my face first?” Helen asked, nervously touching the bandage on her face.

She was really heartbroken at the thought of having a disfigured face. She had always been proud of

her pretty face. Appearance was a woman’s weapon. Without her beauty, how could she fight for

Theodore?

“The doctor also said so. You have other injuries on your body and you are in poor physical condition.

The operation will be postponed.” It was impossible for anyone to guess that Theodore actually had

other thoughts. ©

After hearing what Theodore said, Helen finally relaxed. She was glad that he still cared about her.

Whenever she behaved obediently, Theodore would be gentle with her.

In fact, other than trying to destroy Theodore and Ariana’s relationship, the most important thing for her

right now was to delay the surgery.

She didn’t want to recover too quickly. Not only because she was afraid that Theodore would not care

about her after the surgery, but also because she couldn’t tell him what he wanted to know.

In fact, Helen never had the intention of treating her heart disease, at least not until Theodore fell in

love with her.

She’d rather die than let Theodore know what Marley had said before dying. ©
