When I came downstairs, I could feel their fiery gazes on me even though I did not look up. I could not bear it.
My legs went weak. Theo quickly stepped forward to support me. I saw Tyler wanting to come over and support me from the corners of my eyes, but he retracted his feet because he was a step too slow.
I chuckled to myself. That was how he retreated from Susan.
Theo asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"
I nodded. Laying on top of him always gave me a sense of stability. Holding his hand, I looked up at him and said lightly, "Let's go home. I'm so tired."
"Okay, let's go home."
Theo helped me to walk to Carlson, and I said my goodbye. "Theo and I will be going back first. Take care of your health. We will come back to visit you next time.”
Everything would have been delightful if Tyler and Sara had not been here tonight, but alas.
Carlson also looked somewhat regretful, but it did not show on his face. "Go back and have a good rest." He turned to Theo next to me and instructed, "Take care of Wanda." "Of course." After saying our goodbyes, Theo and I went out. The moment we reached the door, I vaguely heard a voice behind me. I turned around and saw that Sara had come out.
She was standing at the top of the stairs, watching me. Thinking of what she said, I could not help but look at Tyler. I did not expect him to be looking at me. At the brief second of our intense contact, he and I were both stunned.
"Let's go." Theo touched me.
I looked away, responded with a 'yeah', and left with him.
While in the car, he was driving smoothly while I kept silent.
"Really?"
Theo nodded. He freed one hand and touched my head before quickly retracting it and putting it back on the steering wheel. He smiled, "Think about it. Susan was with him for so many years and even had his child, but were they married?"
"But Susan's background is complicated. Even if Tyler agreed to marry her, the Schumans wouldn’t. Sara is different. Although she’s not from a famous family, she’s at least clean. If Tyler wants to marry her, the Schumans may accept it."
"Didn't Yvonne already say it? The Schumans won't accept her," Theo said.
I replied, "She did." I said nothing more after that.
Sara, who had a clean background, was of no help to the Schumans, but she also did not pose a threat. This was her main difference from Susan, and it was also her advantage.
