Claudia praised a few more words, looked at Ted, and said, “Ophelia, who is this?”
“This is the bodyguard that Zachariah arranged for Tommy. Tommy is also close to him, so he usually takes care of Tommy.” Ophelia explained.
“I see... He seems to have a good kung fu base.” Claudia stretched out her hand to Ted and said, “Hello, my name is Claudia, nice to meet you.”
Ted kept a straight face, but glanced at Claudia’s outstretched hand, and did not shake it politely. To strangers, especially women he didn't know, he always kept his distance.
Claudia was a little embarrassed. She had a good appearance and a curvy figure. She was the target of many men’s pursuit. She did not expect that Zachariah and Ted to be continuously indifferent towards her, which made her feel somewhat embarrassed.
“Ted.” Ophelia said with some warning, “Claudia is a guest of the Chambers family.”
Ted stretched out his hand and said indifferently, “Hello, I’m Ted.”
Claudia’s knowledgeable self-deprecation, “As expected of the bodyguard hired by the Zachariah, his imposing manner and aura are not comparable to ordinary bodyguards.”
Ted took Tommy from Ophelia’s arms and said, “You’ve just recovered from your broken hand, I can carry Tommy.”
Claudia looked at it and said with half-intention, “Ophelia, you and Ted seem to be more like husband and wife. You, him, Tommy, seem to be like a very sweet family of three.”
Ophelia glanced at her.
Claudia covered her mouth as if she knew she had made a mistake.
She said with slight apologetics, “Ophelia, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean anything else. I just said it casually. It’s true that the two of you looked good together. A handsome man and a beautiful woman are pleasing to look at.”
Ted glanced at her sharply and said, “Apologize.”
Claudia didn’t react for a while.
“Apologize.” Ted reiterated again.
Claudia was a little puzzled.
Ted held Tommy in one hand, moved his figure, and soon arrived in front of Claudia. He held her neck directly with his empty right hand and lifted her up with a little force, his voice was as cold as ice, “I hate who tries to be smart.”
Claudia’s face turned red when she was held up. She patted Ted’s hand with both hands and kicked her feet vigorously.
Ophelia was taken aback and anxiously instructed, “Ted, let go.”
Ted harshly threw her to the ground. As soon as Claudia landed on the ground, she felt as if she had come back to life. She took several deep breaths violently and glared at Ted fiercely. She wanted to get angry, but it just so happened that the door was opened, and Zachariah walked in.
She immediately put away her anger, reddened her eyes, and cried aggrieved.
Zachariah just glanced at her and said to Ophelia, “What happened?”
Ophelia looked at the farce that happened at this moment but didn’t know how to explain it.
Ted said with a rigid look, “This woman has ulterior motives. I taught her a lesson. If the boss is angry, you can punish me.”
Zachariah didn't care whether Claudia was alive or dead. He said, “Ophelia, are you okay?”
Ophelia shook her head.
Claudia felt that she had been greatly humiliated. She got up from the ground and said aggrieved, “Zachariah, Ophelia, this is your hospitality towards guest?”
Claudia almost didn’t know where to keep her face.
“Zachariah, I don't understand what you are saying.”
Zachariah held his arms around Ophelia and said, “Forget it, if you don't understand. Ophelia, let’s go.”
After speaking, he immediately took Ophelia away. Ted from beginning to end hugged Tommy and went hiding. He didn’t show up until Zachariah and Ophelia left. When he walked in front of Claudia, Claudia took a step back in shock.
“Ugly woman, you are not worthy for boss.” Ted said indifferently.
Claudia’s face changed and changed.
“What did you say?”
“Almost all of your thoughts are written on your face. If you don't know how to act, don’t try to be an actor.” After Ted spoke, he turned around and walked to the bedside with Tommy in his arms.
Claudia felt embarrassed and embarrassed being seen through her thoughts. She walked up to Ted quickly and sneered angrily, “Ted, don’t think you know me very well. I admire Zachariah. It doesn't mean that I will be shameless to be a homewrecker. You, as just a bodyguard, better watch mouth.”
“Get out.”
“What?”
“Get out. The perfume on your body stinks. Tommy will not like it.”
Claudia’s face was distorted with anger.
She slammed the door and walked out.
