The Woman From Hell

"I should have protected you properly, but now you're in danger because of me." Theo pressed my head against his chest even more.

I could not see his expression clearly, but I could feel the guilt and unrest that was almost drowning me from his entire body. I wrapped my arms around his waist. "You've done a good job, Theo. I didn't suffer a single scratch from this incident, and neither did the children." If I had not thought about this all of a sudden today, I probably would not have realized that this had happened at all.

Theo had built an indestructible wall around me.

"So, the reason why you went along with Delia and why you're keeping her at Regal Villa is that you don't dare to act impulsively."

I quickly deduced the reason from the few things Theo said.

"You don't know who's the person helping Delia do all this."

Even if the enemies hidden in the dark were not that strong, they could still do enough damage.

I immediately understood Theo's concerns then.

"That's right."

Theo released me and looked into my eyes solemnly.

"I dare not risk you nor the children at all without knowing who the enemy is."

His gaze was so loving that it was almost drowning me.

"You and the children are who I care about the most.

"So, when you leave the office today, you have to act as if nothing happened and as if you don't know about all this at all, okay?"

It was apparent that Theo was asking me to stay out of this and pretend that this never happened.

How was that possible, though?

It would have been alright if I had

not known about this, but now that I did, how could I still pretend that this did not happen at all and let Theo shoulder it all on his own? NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

"No. Theo know now that I and the children are the most important to you. Similarly, you're the most important to me. You can't shoulder everything alone. Can't I bearsome of the burden with you too?"

I wanted to put myself in his shoes.

How different could my emotions be from Theo's?

"Theo, you're forgetting that we're husband and wife. We should be sharing our burdens together."

I understood Theo. He wanted to protect my heart, but at the same time, I wish I could protect him. I did not want to become Theo's weakness.

He looked a little confused at first but was very quickly relieved.

Theo gently pressed a kiss to my forehead.

"It's my fault. My Wanda will never be my weakness. I shouldn't have done this."

His eyes instantly brightened then.

"As you said before, Delia had a purpose when she came to my side. As for what this purpose is, I think taking your place is just one of them."

He told me everything he knew.

Of course, Theo knew way more than I did.

Also, my guesses from before were more or less right.

"So, there's someone else behind Delia. That person brought Delia to the charity banquet that night and made her do what she did. This person also helped Delia by erasing all of the evidence." FindNovel

One could tell that this was no ordinary individual.
