Can't Win Me Back (Isabella and Nathan) novel Chapter 123

Theo pushed his hands into his pockets and walked confidently ahead. Thea followed behind, her head hanging low. The two of them, one tall and one short, had contrasting auras - one invincible and the other soft and sweet. Surprisingly, they were exceptionally harmonious.

Theo took a few steps and noticed that Thea was falling behind. He stopped and waited for her. Seeing this, Thea quickly picked up her pace and caught up with him.

"Sorry. I had short legs and couldn't keep up with you," Thea dragged Theo's leg behind, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Theo looked down on her, his gaze resting on the heavy laptop bag on her shoulder.

"Give me the bag," he commanded.

Thea said, "No way. I was the assistant, you were the CEO. I wouldn't let the CEO carry my bag, people would criticize me for being arrogant."

Theo directly took it off. He slung it over his shoulder.

Then Pi smiled but didn't laugh and said, "You are as tall as the bag, so are you carrying it or is it carrying you?"

Thea was dumbfounded and almost shut herself off.

Theo couldn't help but smirk as he saw her dazed expression.

This time, he did not leave Thea alone and stride away, but walked side by side with Thea.

Two people arrived at the pre-booked suite. Inside the suite, there was a round marble dining table, filled with various delicacies and treasures. There were also candles and blooming flowers, creating an atmosphere that was exceptionally romantic and cozy. It looked just like a candlelit dinner for a couple.

The guests had not arrived yet.

Thea looked at Theo with confusion and nervously reminded him, "Theodore, these bellflowers and lavender have unique meanings, and I'm afraid they are not suitable for appearing in a negotiation setting."

Theo pretended to be clueless and asked her, "Oh, sister, do you know their meaning in the language of flowers?"

Thea said, "The meaning of the campanula flower is eternal love, symbolizing the perseverance and waiting for love. As for lavender, its message is about waiting for love."

Theo seemed to have realized something and said, "So that's how it was."

No matter how much Thea tried to explain, Theo would just let it go in one ear and out the other.

"Sister, you are a fashion expert, so you study the language of flowers. But our guest today is an elderly person and a practical entrepreneur, who won't delve into the meanings of different flowers."

Thea always felt that something was not right.

Theo, who was usually a perfectionist, had an obsession with achieving perfection. Anything that passed through his hands was never allowed to have any flaws.

Don't men care less about flowers?

Thea felt that she had made a mountain out of a molehill again.

She chose a spot in the corner and sat down. Little did she know, after pacing back and forth in the room, Theo also flatteringly sat down beside her.

Thea looked at him, he avoided her gaze and then raised his wrist to check the watch, complaining about their partner. "Why haven't they arrived yet? They have no sense of time. I don't think we should collaborate anymore."

Thea laughed and said, "You rarely lose your temper like you did today."

Theo's body slightly stiffened.

"Did you notice?" He leaned towards him.

Thea said, "Theodore, have you fallen for Ms. Fletcher? Look at you, dressing up and taking off makeup today, and now you're so absent-minded. It's obvious that you're in love."

Theo opened his mouth and said, "What does this have to do with Ms. Fletcher?" His uneasiness and anxiety were clearly because of her.

However, as soon as Theo finished speaking, a sound of footsteps came from outside the door.
