Chapter: 589

Ariana struggled to get rid of him but to no avail. Alas, she gave up. After calming down, she said,

“Many things went through my mind from the time I fainted in the fire to when I woke up. I’ve also

noticed things I’ve neglected before.”

Theodore had a bad feeling when he heard the calmness in her voice. He gripped her hand more

tightly for fear she would leave him.

“Theodore, how did you know where I was the night I returned to the Anderson. family’s house with

Helen?” Ariana demanded.

Theodore’s quivering lips betrayed his inner turmoil. He averted his gaze, not wanting to look into her

eyes.

Ariana’s heart sank at that. Theodore’s reaction confirmed her suspicions.

It seemed from the beginning that Theodore had never had the slightest trust in her.

Anger and grievance piled up like a tower of cards in her heart. ©

Ariana extended her hand, demanding, “Your phone, please.”

After a brief silence, Theodore reluctantly retrieved his phone and handed it over.

“Password?”

“Your birthday.”

Ariana’s heart skipped a beat, but she maintained her stoic expression. With a poker face, she

unlocked his phone and looked for the app.

To Theodore, the cellphone was a mundane tool of communication, its apps carefully categorized and

color-coded, each serving a practical purpose.

However, as Ariana delved into the depths of his device, her expectations were shattered, and anxiety

crept in. How could this be? Had she been mistaken all along?

At that moment, Theodore gently covered the screen with his hand, his voice a tender whisper. “Stop

looking for it. You won’t find it.”

His words confirmed her suspicion; whatever she wanted was on his phone. Her eyes reddened, and

she locked her gaze with him, demanding answers. “Where is it? Do you intend to keep it hidden from

me?”

Theodore withdrew his hand, reluctantly answering, “It is in the hidden interface.”

“I need to see it!” Uncertain of how to get to the hidden interface herself, she returned the phone to

Theodore so that he could do that.

“I’d rather you don’t see it,” Theodore cautioned, his voice tinged with both concern and resignation as

he averted his gaze.

“Theodore, I must see it! There is nothing left to hide.” Ariana’s voice trembled, her chest heaving. ©

Caught in a deadlock, their emotions entwined in a web of unspoken pain. Ariana’s sobs resonated

with heartache, her tears cascading down her face. “Theodore, I’m lost. I don’t know how to navigate

this labyrinth of deceit. Why do you treat me like this? I never coerced you to reveal your past; I just

wanted to believe you. Yet, even now, you continue to cloak yourself in secrecy!” ©

As Ariana’s cries echoed, Theodore’s chest constricted with an ache he could not ignore. Taking a

deep breath, he took the phone and tapped twice on the upper left corner of the screen. In an instant,

the interface transformed, revealing a single app with a blue windmill icon against the backdrop of

darkness.
