The Woman From Hell

I had wanted to find some breakthrough at the Hanging Garden, but they almost made a fool out of me. it would be a waste of time to stay here any longer.

I was still feeling a little confused and weighed down after finally sorting things out. What I did not expect was that I would bump into Theo at the door when the elevator arrived at the lobby on the first floor. There seemed to be surprise and panic in his eyes when our gazes met.

"Theo, why are you here?"

Theo appearing right before me after those people left made me think there was some connection between them that could not be ignored.

It was terrifying thinking of this.

Someone I had spent nights and days together with in the past had deliberately gotten someone to threaten and intimidate me.

There was a wave of nausea in my stomach. "I didn't expect you to do this. I must have been blind to not be able to see your true colors. "Don't touch me. I don't like getting dirty!"

My emotions were agitated, and I was staggering unsteadily when I walked. Theo froze midway while trying to step forward.

He made no excuses for my questions and reproach. He was not even willing to lie. He just looked at me silently the entire time.

This behavior of neither denying nor accepting it was admittance to me.

That being the case, why did I have to worry about the little face I had left? "I was too stupid and naive to think that you were just making a momentary mistake. I've been trying to convince myself too, but in the end, it was exchanged for naked betrayal and hurt. "Theo, the pain you gave me will all be returned to you one day."

I could not stand encountering unvirtuous people who schemed, and for those who had been by my side, I could never forgive them. In the end, I slapped Theo and left angrily.

I did not go straight home after

leaving the Hanging Garden. There

was nowhere for me to vent my anger, so drove to the winery and bought myself a lot of wine before returning home. I failed to notice that I had received a call.

Since Marius had not been able to contact me, he immediately appeared outside my house. "Sis Wan, are you at home? Your door wasn't shut tight, so I let myself in."

I collapsed on the sofa and did not reply to Marius when I heard him.

Marius had come in on his own, however. I looked up at him.

"Theo tricked me for so long. Is his conscience not disturbed?"

I leaned against the sofa while hugging a wine bottle. I looked like I was talking to Marius, but I was the only one who knew that I was falling into self-doubt.

Marius immediately stepped forward to comfort me patiently when he saw this. "It's alright. It's all over. I promise I won't let you suffer anymore."

"All men's mouths are filled with sweet, deceitful words. I won't make the same mistake again." I pushed Marius away as I laughed with tears in my eyes. "You can't believe them. Yes, you'll be miserable if you do," Marius echoed me.

Alcohol was used to numb one's nerves. I felt even more uncomfortable the more I drank did not want to face the cruel feality anymore and got myself absolutely wasted. en FindNovel

Marius hugged me in his arms as I sobbed.

In my daze, I saw his expression. He looked like he wished he could carry my burden.

His voice sounded in my ear, "You'll feel better after you cry. I'll use my actions to prove that my words are sincere."

That night, woke up multiple times

from a nightmare, and every time did, Marius would step forward to take care of me before putting-me back to sleep. I could vaguely catch his appearance and voice.
