worthy of the Spencer family’s protection!

Theodore frowned, his expression grave. “Let’s not think about that for now. Take care of yourself.”

“I don’t think I can take care of myself anymore.” Cynthia wiped her tears. “Theo, I don’t know how long I have left. But even if it’s only for a short time, I’ll be happy as long as I’m with you. Whether or not we can make our status official doesn’t matter anymore.”

“Alright, stop crying.”

Theodore didn’t say much more. Instead, he bent down to tidy up the lunch boxes on the coffee table. He took special care with the one with the chili peppers, covering it carefully.

“Theo, aren’t you going to have lunch?” Cynthia asked.

“I’ll take you out to eat.” He put away the lunch boxes, showing no intention of throwing them away.
