The Woman From Hell

Chapter 2366



Theo looked at me with hesitation in his eyes. "She and I..."

His trailing sentence startled me.

That tone clearly meant that there was something going on between them.

For a moment, I wanted to run away.

I avoided his gaze and hurriedly said, "Let's talk about this another day. I'm tired. I'll go to the guest room."

Just as I was about to leave, Theo grabbed my wrist.

I looked over. He was stunned for a moment before he let go. "I'll go."

Theo left the room after that.

After he left, I sat in the room in silence.

Theo really did not explain further.

My heart seemed to constrict lightly. I held my chest and frowned. It hurt.

I wanted to know what was going on with him and Delia but did not have the courage to hear it. I was afraid that it would be news that I could not bear.

Lowering my head, my face scrunched up in pain. I scratched my hair and lay down.

I would leave it to tomorrow. I might have the courage to face it tomorrow.

Thinking of this, I closed my eyes. Even though my mind was overwhelmed, I still forced myself to fall asleep. I did not know how long it took before I fell asleep.

The weather the next day was gloomy as if it knew I was depressed. It looked like a typhoon was coming.

I immediately saw Theo at the dining table when I came down.

He did not seem to have slept well. He turned his head when he heard movement. "Did you sleep well?"

Why ask when he already knew?

None of us spoke at the dining table.

Caroline did not dare not make a sound amidst the quiet atmosphere.

Theo was finally the one to break the silence. "I want to find a suitable time to tell you about that matter."

"What's the right time?" I asked him, looking up.

Theo seldom had such a moment of hesitation. He seemed conflicted. "Depends on you. We can sit down and talk about this together."

I put down my cutlery and looked at him, "Including Delia?"

"Yes, including Delia."

My heart was slightly touched. "It seems to be a big event."

"Wanda, promise me you won't get agitated."

"You're already reminding me even before we start talking about this. Okay, I'll prepare myself mentally. You can have her come over this afternoon. Let's clear things up?" After said that, I got up and went upstairs back to the room. Content

I did not know what was Theo's gaze or demeanor. I only knew that my heart was very disturbed.

What I was about to hear this afternoon might be unbearable for me.

I calmed myself and called Shannon. "I won't be going to the company today. Sorry to push this all on you."

"What's the matter? Judging from your tone, it's not something good."

"He and Delia want to talk to me in the afternoon."NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

"Huh? Why do I feel like something big has happened?"

My already anxious heart was even more anxious now. "Anyway, I'm sorry to trouble you. I'll hang up first." I was afraid that I would become even more flustered if continued, so I ended the call

directly.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, I pressed the phone to my chest. My every heartbeat was faster than the last.

I could hardly bear it anymore now. What should I do in the afternoon?

No, I needed to calm down.

I persuaded myself and looked out the window. The sky was dark... It was going to rain.

Caroline prepared lunch in the afternoon, but Theo was not there. He probably went to pick up Delia.

I had no appetite, so I sat in the living room and waited after eating only a little.

Time passed quietly, and the sound of people entering the door reached my ears.

I turned my head to look, and what caught my eye was Delia's delicate face. She was afraid to look me in the eye as if she had done

This face that was the same as Cecilia's... If she did something wrong to me, I probably would not be able to bear it...
