The Woman From Hell

The next day, I woke up cradling my head and was shocked when I saw Marius sitting beside the bed.

I was not afraid that he would do something to me. I was afraid that I might have done something inappropriate when I was out of it.

Fortunately, Marius seemed like how he was usually. Apart from the dark eye bags after having stayed up, he also sounded a little hoarse when he spoke.

"Does your head hurt? Would you like to eat something?"

I shook my head, feeling like I was losing control of the expression on my face.

After all, it was embarrassing to think about how I had drunk and gone insane in front of him. I even passed out drunk after that.

I was famished after throwing up the entire night, so my stomach began grumbling.

Marius could also tell I was a little embarrassed. "You should get up and wash up first. I'll reheat the porridge."

The truth was Marius had prepared the ingredients early on to ensure my stomach felt better after I woke up. The fragrance of the porridge that had been carefully prepared even whetted my appetite despite my hangover.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking. Seems like there are a lot of your skills that are still to be discovered."

As Shannon would say, he was a treasure trove of a guy.

I recovered somewhat after filling my stomach. As my stomach warmed up, so did my heart. "I must have absolutely tormented you last night. I'm sorry. Also, thank you for taking care of me."

"Sis Wan, why do you still say such outrageous things? It's not the first time I've seen you drunk.

"Fortunately, I'm also someone who has witnessed a huge spectacle."

Perhaps Marius had been trying to relieve the awkward atmosphere, but I had to lower my head after I heard that.

I would rather bury those bad memories deep inside myself than think about them again. However, I was also worried that I would go crazy and do something disgraceful when I was drunk. "Yes, well... I didn't do that last night, right..." "Huh?

"You're not trying to see me mess up, are you?" Marius almost jumped

out of his skin from fright when I pretended to be serious. He did not dare try making everything

unnecessarily complicated anymore.

Marius' phone rang several times after we had breakfast.

Marius glanced at the phone and did not hide anything. "It's Shannon." He then stood up and went to one side to answer the call. He switched on the speakerphone, and it seemed to have been deliberate.

I could hear every word of their conversation.

Shannon immediately asked Marius about my situation the moment the call connected. "Hey, I specifically asked you to take care of Wanda. How is she now?"

"You don't have to worry about how I do things."

I watched as Marius chattered on the phone. Shannon was still worried about me. I did not say anything. I just buried my head into the breakfast Marius prepared and cleaned it off.

Seeing me finish the breakfast he

had prepared, Marius immediately

smiled and came toward me. "Was it

really that good? I can make it for

you all the time in the future of you

like it."

"Cough, cough cough..."

I almost choked to death by what he said. Marius poured me a glass of water and sat down opposite me.

No matter how heartless I was, I could not bring myself to take Marius' dedication for granted. Even more so since I was sober now.

"I was just kidding. Don't take it seriously."

While he had been willingly dedicating himself to me the entire time, he also did not want to put too much pressure on me. Still, I noticed his disappointed expression. "Regardless, I still have to thank you."

"Marius, I'm not actually worth it at all—"NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

Not wanting to hear me belittle myself, Marius cut me off before I was even done. "Are we not friends? Friends should help each other."

He had seen through my thoughts and kept his distance from me. "Well, yes, that. I have something to do at the company, so I'll leave first." "Alright." Marius also took his leave after breakfast.
