Chapter 45 Terror For Theo

• “Oh, it’s fine. Let’s just eat, okay?” Theo hurriedly pressed the lock button on his phone, hiding the message he had just read. With a swift motion, he slipped the phone into his pocket, hoping Hazel hadn’t noticed.
• Hazel watched his movements with a questioning look. Something felt off, but she chose not to ask. She wasn’t the type to pry into other people’s personal matters, not even her husband’s. She sighed softly, glancing at the now-empty dining table—Jessica and Erica were no longer there.
• “It seems your mom has finished eating. She’s probably in Erica’s room?” Hazel tried to break the silence as she pushed Theo’s wheelchair to the dining chair. Carefully, she helped Theo stand and take his seat.
