Chapter 1012 Theodore's Overconfidence

In the bathroom, Theodore's intense gaze was fixed on Little Bunny. She bit her lip and met his stare, but didn't make a move.

"Need my help?" Theodore asked with an evil grin on his face.

Little Bunny still didn't say anything. She was thinking about how to slap Theodore's thick-skinned face hard enough to hurt him.

"So, Little Bunny," Theodore said without noticing her emotional change. He stared at her face closely, which had light makeup and smooth skin that seemed poreless. "Did you get plastic surgery?" Little Bunny chuckled lightly and replied, "You don't like artificial things, do you?"

"No," Theodore shook his head in agreement.

Little Bunny sarcastically laughed again. Theodore was a tiger in the sack.

"If you've had work done let me know so I don't accidentally hurt you."

She didn't want to waste any more time talking with him; so she reached out to push him away when they suddenly heard Laird's voice from outside the door, "Theodore!"

The sudden sound startled Theodore so much that he shuddered involuntarily. No matter how old Laird got, he still held a strong influence over him.

"What do you want?!" Theodore snapped back at the door in annoyance.

"Come out here!" Laird demanded sternly.

"I'm taking a shower."

"Two minutes."

"If I..."

"If you don't come out in two minutes I'll break your legs!" Laird threatened firmly.

Theodore couldn't resist anymore. He reluctantly let go of Little Bunny as he left the bathroom in frustration, while Little Bunny breathed a sigh of relief that it was over for now.

It was best if they parted ways amicably without conflict or drama if it wasn't necessary after all.

As soon as she walked out of the bathroom door, there were sounds of argument between Laird and Theodore echoing down the hallway.

"Little bunny!" Suddenly hearing his voice behind her made little Bunny hesitate before responding.

Laird slapped Theodore across his head. "Show some respect!"

This only infuriated Theodore further, who wanted nothing more than take it all out on little Bunny right then and there but instead received another lecture from the laird, who reminded him what was expected from someone like himself.

"Let's go pick up Nicholas together," Theodore said. And that was what Laird wanted all along.

"She's an artiste, it wouldn't be appropriate for her to come along. Just you!"

"Laird, you probably don't understand. My reputation is much bigger than hers. You need to face reality..."

Laird gave Theodore a look and he immediately shut up.

"Okay, okay. I'll go, I'll go! I don't even know if you picked me up from the streets or something since you never liked me." Theodore said with frustration.

"I'm starting to wonder how I ended up with a son like you!" Laird said in exasperation.

Theodore didn't say anything else and just left.

"Little Bunny," Laird suddenly called out to her after Theodore left.

Little Bunny had always respected Laird and she respectfully replied, "Dad."

"Did Theodore bully you?" Laird asked. He was afraid that Theodore might have done something to her, which was why he purposely sent him away earlier.

Little Bunny shook her head but she knew there were some things she needed to tell him. Before she could speak though, Laird said, "Rest for now. Nicholas will be back soon and he'll start bothering you again."

Little Bunny pursed her lips. She felt like it was better for her to handle things on her own first before involving anyone else.

"Okay, thank you, Dad."

"Go ahead," Laird said kindly as he left the room. "Don't worry about anything because as long as I'm here, Theodore won't dare do anything to hurt you." Little Bunny smiled faintly but sighed when Laird turned his back on her again.

Laird had forced them into marriage years ago because of their child but also wanted Little Bunny's reputation protected so they would have no choice but get married even if they weren't in love or ready yet. Over the years though, despite being busy outside, Theodore never showed any signs of cherishing their relationship. Theodore couldn't control himself outside either, which made Laird feel guilty towards little bunny more often than not. As time passed by, however, Laird became more satisfied with Little Bunny's company instead of his son's. He thought that it was a blessing that his son married someone like Little Bunny, who deserved so much better than what she got from life. But seeing them together now only made him worry more about what might happen next between them.

From Little Bunny's hesitant words just now, Laird could sense that she wanted to say something. Most likely, it was about getting a divorce.

Laird reluctantly returned to the living room and saw Theodore putting on his shoes at the door with an unwilling expression.

"Theodore," Laird suddenly called out to him.

Theodore turned around. "What do you want now?! Do you know how hard it is for me to get a day or two off? Can't I just lie down at home for a while?" "I have something to tell you."

Theodore had no choice but to take off his shoes again and sit next to Laird in the living room. This old man never let him have any peace.

"You haven't been treating Little Bunny well all these years since your marriage," Laird said bluntly without giving Theodore any face.

Theodore wanted to argue back but suddenly felt like he had nothing left to say and remained silent.

"If Little Bunny asks for a divorce, agree with whatever conditions she has. She has put in so much effort into our family over the years, it's only fair..."

"What are you thinking?" Theodore interrupted him directly with an unbelieving expression on his face.

Laird's face darkened slightly.

"Little Bunny would ask for a divorce? Would she be willing? Dad, every woman wants to marry me! Those women who were good with me before were all after Mr Wold's reputation! If I wasn't fair and didn't drag them along, who knows how many women would come knocking on my door... Ah!"

Theodore covered his head and screamed as if he was being hit by something heavy. From childhood until now, it was lucky that he hadn't been beaten up by Laird yet.

"You're proud of this?! You're proud of having so many women outside?" Laird was furious beyond belief.

Theodore dared not speak anymore when he saw the old man getting angry. Instead, he sat there sulking in silence.

"Who gave you such confidence that all women must marry you? Your skin is thicker than city walls!" Laird yelled out, exasperated.
