The Woman From Hell



Theo's worried voice sounded from outside the door.

I did not really want to respond to him at this moment, but I had to, "I'm fine. I'm taking a shower now."

With that said, I turned on the shower.

I heard nothing more from outside the door with the shower, and silence returned.

I admitted that I was being hypocritical. I was just sulking here even when nothing had been decided, but I also had my reasons. I was furious with Theo's dishonesty.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Why did he not explain if it was nothing?

Yet no matter how much I thought about it, I could not think of anything that required the two of them to be alone with one another. Was it a partnership proposal?

What was it about a partnership that could not be discussed, though?

My mind was in shambles. I did not want to think about this anymore.

Standing under the shower, I tried to wash away all my worries.

Theo was still working on his tablet when I came out. He was smiling with a look of tranquility when he looked at me. I lowered my head and climbed onto the bed. "Go and wash up."

"Alright."

He planted a kiss on my forehead, then grabbed his clothes and went to the bathroom.

Theo's back was tall and dark as usual. I turned away after the door closed and looked up at the ceiling, taking in a deep breath.

He must have his reasons for not telling me. It would make him feel bad if I kept pushing.

He would tell me when the time was right.

This was what I thought.

I did not know when Theo came out. I just knew that I fell asleep very quickly, and when I woke up, it was already the next day.

The spot next to me was empty and cool to the touch. He had obviously been away for a long time.

I got out of bed as well, washed up, and went downstairs.

"Madam, it's time for breakfast."

"How was he today?"

I did not need to say more. Caroline understood who I was referring to and what I was asking about.

Caroline's eyes wavered slightly before she replied, "The sir only ate a little, but he still looked preoccupied." "Yes, I see."

"Madam, did something happen?"

Caroline was worried about the

seriousness of the situation a asked me in a tone worry.

I shook my head at her and smiled. "It's nothing, don't worry. The children are fine, right?"

"Yes, they're fine. Don't worry, Madam." Caroline smiled brightly like a flower when she mentioned the two children.

It was obvious that she really liked children.

Suddenly thinking of Jason and

Nina, I smiled and said, "Hurry up and get Jason and the rest to organize the wedding so that you can have your grandson in your arms as soon as possible.

"I'm also pestering him about this. I like Nina. She's gentle and considerate."

"I'll help you push Nina a little bit as well. I'll get her to take care of herself and stop worrying

work."

Caroline's eyes lit up. "Of course, of course."

"I'm off to work now."

After leaving the villa, I drove to the company.

The moment I arrived at the office, Shannon greeted me and asked, "How did it go? What did he say?"

"What do you mean?"

I pretended to be confused as I placed my bag down and sat down.

Shannon pulled out the chair opposite me and asked, "You didn't ask Theo about what happened last night?"

My expression fell when I recalled his answer.

Shannon apparently noticed my unusual response and asked cautiously, "He didn't tell you the truth?"

"No. I was testing the waters and he said he was working overtime at the company."

My tone was calm, and this frightened Shannon.

She shrank her neck and looked at me cautiously. "Wanda, are you okay?"

"I'm very well."

"Don't you want to know what he and Delia were doing in there?"
