The Year I Was the Other Woman To Myself novel Chapter 730

Remembering all of it made Marico grind his teeth in frustration. He had spent his whole life being set up by this man. Just when he graduated college and thought he had finally earned his freedom, Theodore had shipped him overseas and kept him under strict surveillance.

Who does something like that?

The worst part was, Theodore was his own family!

"I was just... trying to scare them," Marico said. He had wanted to sound tough, but under Theodore's icy stare, his confidence evaporated.

"Hamilton called me."

"I figured as much."

"I told him he could do whatever he wanted with you. Shoot you, skin you—I didn't care."

Marico let out a cold snort. See? Theodore was infinitely more ruthless than he ever was.

"And yet, you somehow made it out alive."

"Sorry to disappoint."

"Make time to stop by your parents' house. I've already briefed them on your little stunt tonight, and they are very eager to have a chat with you."

"Theodore, how old are you? You're still tattling to my parents?"

Theodore's gaze darkened, a sharp smirk pulling at his lips. "You should consider yourself lucky that I only tattled to your parents, instead of taking it upon myself to discipline you."

"I'm older than you!"

"You actually did something honorable for once. It was just brainless and far too impulsive."

With that final remark, Theodore drove off into the night.

Marico lashed out, kicking wildly at the departing taillights, but his foot met nothing but air.

Natalie watched their bizarre dynamic with utter fascination. "I never pegged you as someone who'd be afraid of anyone."

Marico scoffed, refusing to admit defeat. "I was just showing him a little respect."

Natalie pursed her lips, deciding not to burst his bubble. "So he drove all the way out here in the middle of the night just to mock you?"

Marico snorted. "Why do you think we managed to walk out of the Amos estate in one piece?"

Reality suddenly dawned on Natalie. "Because Theodore was parked right outside."
