Chapter 224

"What? Theodore is your last name and Derian is your first name?"

At night, on a bed, Jiang You sat up and turned to look at Theodore lying on the bed: "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

“You didn’t ask either,” he said lazily.

"Can you say that?!" Jiang You scratched his face. "Never mind... By the way, is there anything else you haven't mentioned?"

His golden eyes moved to her, gazing at her calmly. After a two-second silence, he didn't answer her question but instead asked, "And you?"

"What about me?"

"Like having a fiancé or something?" Theodore thought of his brother's words. "Or multiple ones?"

Jiang You's expression froze, his eyes widening: "What do you mean, multiple? I didn't! Who told you that?"

“Who knows,” Theodore said, closing his eyes. “Some people just like to be fickle and flirt.”

"What kind of weird word is this?" Jiang You poked Theodore's cheek with his index finger. "Putting aside whether I have it or not, even if I did, shouldn't you, as my good friend, stand by my side?"

"So you admit it?"

Theodore opened his eyes, his gaze unhurried and cold, making her instinctively want to shrink back.

Why does it feel like I've been caught cheating? Jiang You laughed at his own thoughts and shook his head: "No, you're acting strange today."

She leaned closer, her black hair hanging over her blood-red hair. She reached out and touched the nice-textured red hair.

Theodore's translucent golden eyes trembled slightly. He twitched his fingertips but did not remove the hand from his head. "I know, I'm sleepy."

The next day, early in the morning, Jiang You switched shifts with someone else, hoping to gather more information.

When Theodore heard that she wanted to work somewhere else, he tilted his head and asked, "Do you really want to go out?"

"Otherwise what? Are we supposed to stay here forever?" Jiang You didn't place all his hopes on Xia Yan and the others.

Theodore remained silent upon hearing this, lowering his head as if lost in thought.

Jiang You ignored him and changed into a blue dress: "Well then, Theodore, see you tonight."

After saying that, she went to find the cleaning team. Fortunately, she was assigned to clean the castle owner's study.

The interior is made of dark solid wood, with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves built along the walls, and carved columns dividing the bookshelves into regular sections.

A large leather desk is placed in the central area.

The arrival of Lady Luck made Jiang You overlook many details, such as how she, who had only been there for a few days, was able to clean the study.

For example, she's the only one in the study right now.

Jiang You glanced at the drawer under the desk and swallowed hard in the empty study.

She glanced around carefully, gently placed the broom aside, and nervously crouched down to slowly pull open the drawer.

What comes into view is a medical examination report and a photo frame with its back to the viewer.

She picked up the medical examination report, but because it was in English, she had to guess and read it haltingly.

Example 1: Mr. Derian Theodore was involved in a car accident while racing in Touch Valley. Derian Theodore fractured his left hand, and 2000 kilometers away at the negotiating table, Lindbergh Theodore suddenly clutched his left arm...

Jiang Youxin's heart skipped a beat, his hand holding the paper trembled uncontrollably, and he murmured, "Theodore... Derian Theodore..."

She seemed to be hallucinating; how could this name be exactly the same as her best friend's?

Is it just a coincidence? There are plenty of people with the same name.

Yes, it's a coincidence. Her best friend is a woman, and her name is Derian Theodore. But I live in a male-dominated apartment.

Jiang You pursed his lips, his gaze falling on the overturned photo frame on the back.

Like Pandora's box, knowing it would be unfortunate, she still reached out her hand.

His dark pupils suddenly contracted as he looked at the red-haired, golden-eyed twins holding hands in the photo.

What are you looking at?

A faint sound suddenly broke the silence of the study. Jiang You looked up sharply and met a pair of indifferent golden eyes.
