Chapter 1192 Little Bunny's Visit
Theodore could barely hold his anger in as he saw Little Bunny be seized by the guard. His fists clenched, and his veins bulged. If it were in the past, no matter what the situation was, Theodore would have punched him.
"Don't move!" he said in a cold voice.
Little Bunny endured the pain in her body with red eyes and barely lifted her head to look at Theodore. "I just want to say a few words to you."
Theodore met her gaze but felt distressed in his chest while maintaining a cold demeanour.
"Let her go," Theodore said to the guard.
No matter what position Theodore held now, as Susan said, no one could bully him here. The guard nodded and released Little Bunny with a warning, "Behave yourself."
Little Bunny nodded quickly. As long as she could talk with Theodore, she wouldn't be impulsive.
She gained freedom, while Theodore sat on a bench inside the meeting room waiting for her. After sitting down, Little Bunny spoke first, "Theodore..."
But he interrupted her immediately, "Don't flatter yourself. It wasn't because of you."
She looked at him through teary eyes as he continued to say, "I know what you're going to say and that you think highly of yourself. Yeah, I was arrested because I abused my power, I made it look like he was forced to take drugs. And later I was reported by someone. Now I'm here in jail, maybe I'll be given a sentence."
Theodore continued as if he was talking about others' stories in a leisurely way, "It did have something to do with you, but I end thing with you not because I knew that I would be sent to jail."
Little Bunny listened quietly to him.
"I truly don't have feelings for you anymore. But I didn't expect I was reported soon later." Said Theodore firmly, explaining that he was reported after they broke up. "I admit I blamed you before, but thinking back on it now I only did those things for my pride, which led me down an illegal path. If there is any blame then only towards myself, you didn't force me into anything."
Little Bunny kept staring at him tightly. Theodore was talking nonchalantly while he took the fall for the whole thing since he didn't want her to feel guilty.
"Little Bunny, I don't want your sympathy, I don't need your pity, and I certainly don't want your guilt. Honestly, even if you feel guilty, it won't change anything. You can't make up for what I've lost. Consider it the price of abandoning you, we're even now." Theodore said plainly.
"Did you make Addison quit the industry? Was that what you're doing?" Little Bunny finally asked.
"Yes, I made him quit. Don't think for a second that I did it for you, I just didn't want to lose face. Since I couldn't keep my promise to you before, at least let's minimize the damage now. Don't worry. Addison's drug use won't be exposed publicly, I have enough ability to handle this."
"I'm not concerned about Addison's career..." Little Bunny tried to explain herself. She asked because she wanted to refute what Theodore had just said. Although she knew that regardless of how much he denied it, she knew Theodore broke up with her because he was facing legal sanctions soon and didn't want her involved or feeling guilty about his situation.
"t doesn't matter to me." Theodore interrupted her as if he was impatient with her.
"Whatever happened between you and him had nothing to do with me now, I don't care either. More exactly, not only Addison chasey, whether you date any other men or not, I don't care. You don't have to tell me in person. We've done, I have no feelings for you, Little Bunny. Don't flatter yourself."
"I know." Replied her after a pause.
Theodore felt a slight pang in his chest at her reaction.
"Who named her 'Little Bunny'? Her father or mother? She has a gentle personality like a real bunny." Theodore thought to himself.
"I know there are no feelings left between us," Little Bunny continued speaking earnestly. "The reason why I came here isn't because I wanted proof of how you feel with me... It's simply because everything happening right now is all my fault and therefore, I came here today just to apologize to you."
Theodore looked at her intently while taking in her sincere expression on display before him.
"I know you don't care about my apology. After all, no matter how I apologize or what I do, it can't make up for your loss. Your loss is something that few people in Northfield can make up for, but morally and psychologically, I still feel guilty. I just wanted to apologize so that at least I won't feel so guilty in the future." She said.
"Okay," Theodore replied.
It turned out that she came just to make herself feel better. Anyone would blame themselves in this situation. Not apologizing for face-to-face would burden anyone psychologically.
He said, "I accept your apology. You can live your life with a clear conscience now. Although I'm not a good person and have done some bad things in my life, at least when it comes to taking responsibility for my actions, I dare to do so and won't blame or resent you for what happened. Now that I'm going inside prison, there won't be much time left for me to spend with Nicholas anymore. Of course, even if I didn't go inside a prison before this incident happened. But I suddenly feel I owe him something. Please be good to him for me in the future."
"I'll try to replace more time to spend with Nicholas." Little Bunny promised.
"And also my dad, although he has a strange personality, he's getting old too. When you're spending time with Nicholas please talk more with him as well." Theodore added.
"Okay," Little Bunny nodded her head obediently.
"That's all then. You should leave now." Theodore urged her on.
Little Bunny gathered up her courage and asked, "How many years will you be sentenced?"
She wasn't familiar with Northfield's legal system nor did she have the opportunity to consult lawyers about Theodore's situation beforehand.
"I don't know either. It depends on the final verdict of the trial. Three or five years are unavoidable though." Theodore spoke impatiently again as if he didn't want any further questions from her side, "Don't worry about me, just focus on living your own life."
Little Bunny nodded once again and said, "I will live well."
"That's good. Hurry up and leave." With those words spoken, Theodore already stood up from his chair
"Theodore,"
Theodore stopped in his tracks.
"Take care of yourself."
"Don't worry, nobody dares to do anything to me here." Said he.
"Um."
Theodore didn't look back again and was escorted away by prison guards. He disappeared from Little Bunny's sight.
"I'll wait for you, no matter how long it takes." Little Bunny thought to herself.
And everything she said today was just meant to put Theodore at ease, to let him believe that she had moved on.
