Now I get it. No matter how much I like you, it's just my own fantasy. I shouldn't have tried to gain your sympathy by hiding the fact that I've recovered from infertility.
Theo, my infertility has been cured. You no longer need to feel responsible for me!
From now on, I will try my best to move on and sincerely wish you and Ellinor the best. May you both be happy!"
After Patricia's confession and reflection, the infertility she had carefully crafted for years were impulsively revealed by herself.
Theo had a solemn look on his face. Even though he had never liked Patricia and knew she had lied and done wrong, he still couldn't be too cold to someone who had once saved his life.
After a moment of silence, he said, "Anyway, I'm glad you're recovered. You should take good care of yourself in the future. I have no animosity towards you."
Patricia looked up at him with teary eyes and asked, "Theo, now that I'm recovered, would you not want to see me in the future? Can we still be friends?"
Theo said, "Ms. Howard, you once saved my life. Regardless of your health status, I am grateful to you.
If you need any help in the future, you can contact my secretary, Collin, anytime. He will help you on my behalf.
Since I have a family now, I try to avoid meeting with women. As for whether we can be friends, considering my relationship with the Howard family, I don't think it's necessary."
His words were clear and straightforward.
