A Surprising Twist of Fates (Sierra and Theo)

Sierra smiled gently and nodded.

After dinner, she instinctively stood up to clear the table, but Theo stopped her.

"Go sit on the couch. I'll handle it."noveldrama

Sierra's eyes widened in disbelief. There was no way she could let him do all the cleaning. She quickly protested, "I can do it! Uncle Theo, you should rest."

But before she could begin tidying up, Theo grabbed her wrist and effortlessly lifted her into his arms. Striding toward the couch, he carefully set her down.

"Sit here and don't move."

Sierra's cheeks flushed, and she froze, too embarrassed to move. She watched

him walk toward the dining table, rolling up his sleeves.

"Uncle Theo, there's an apron in the kitchen," she called out. "You should probably put it on."

Theo walked into the kitchen and spotted an apron with an adorable bunny design hanging on the wall. His expression faltered for a moment.

After a brief hesitation, he picked it up and tied it around his waist.

When Sierra saw him step out, she had to cover her mouth to stop herself from bursting into laughter.

The cute bunny apron completely softened Theo's usually cool and distant demeanor, making him seem unexpectedly approachable.

How adorable.

"What's so funny?" Theo asked, raising an eyebrow.

When he glanced up, he saw her fighting back laughter, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons.

Sierra quickly pressed her lips together, shaking her head in denial.

Theo gave a brief, tight-lipped expression before clearing the trash from the dining

table and carrying it outside, placing it by the door.

Sierra remained curled up on the couch, watching him in quiet disbelief. She could hardly believe that he was doing housework in her home.

It felt almost unfair to have him cleaning up after her.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Sierra blinked in surprise-no one ever dropped by unannounced. She sat up a little straighter, her heartbeat picking up as she watched Theo walk toward the door.

It was Madison standing outside.

When she saw Theo in the bunny apron, she froze, her mouth falling open in sheer astonishment. She rubbed her eyes to make sure she wasn't imagining it.

Theo stood at nearly six foot three, and the apron barely covered his thighs. His usual dignified and aloof demeanor was a stark contrast to the playful design, making the sight almost too amusing.

"M-Mr. Gray... Good evening. Your outfit is quite unique."

Madison struggled to keep a straight face, barely holding back her laughter.

Theo's expression tightened slightly, and without saying a word, he turned and walked back into the kitchen.

She closed the door and quickly made her way into the living room. As soon as she spotted Sierra sitting on the couch, she hurried over and flopped down beside her, eyes gleaming with excitement.

"Wow, Cee! This is insane! I can't believe the billionaire CEO of Gray Corporation is actually cleaning your house. That's next-level stuff!"

She flashed Sierra a big thumbs-up, clearly loving every moment of it.

Feeling embarrassed, Sierra quickly pushed down Madison's hand.

Madison, however, wasn't about to stop there. "Theo is a total gem! He's got it all -power in the boardroom and skill in the kitchen. He's totally changed how I see him! I used to think of him like some untouchable, celestial figure, way above everyday life. But now I see him as the perfect family man!

"He's got the looks, the wealth, the physique—and most importantly, he's so caring. He's literally got every quality anyone could ever want. Cee, you're seriously lucky! You'd better snatch him up before someone else does!"

Her voice became more enthusiastic with every word. Flustered, Sierra quickly covered Madison's mouth with her hand.

"Maddy, keep it down! Stop saying all that nonsense!"

At that moment, Theo emerged from the kitchen, having just washed his hands. The apron was gone, and he returned to his usual cool, dignified self.
