The Woman From Hell Chapter 32
I left the courtyard and walked from the small path that I had just taken to the backyard. I did not expect the scenery to be even more enchanting back there. All I could see were beautiful green plants and colorful flowers as if I was in a sea of flowers.The owner of this house must be a rich and elegant person to maintain this garden so well-kept and beautiful.I walked along the tree-lined path and took in a breath of fresh air. I immediately felt much better.At that moment, a two to three-year-old looking girl ran past me. She was running around in a white satin dress.Suddenly, she slipped and was about to fall. Beside her was a fully bloomed rose covered in thorns.I rushed forward and lifted the child. Fortunately, I was fast enough so her body did not come into contact with the thorns.The little girl was frightened and cried out loud.At this moment, a handsome man in his thirties ran up to me and hugged the child to comfort him. He said, “Thank you so much for what y

“Does Mrs. Grant not know? Mr. Hendrick is very famous and has been developing his business in Whaldorf City. Countless rich and powerful ladies had tried to buy a bowl of his soup. I did not expect that I would be able to drink it today, thanks to President Grant. I did not live for nothing!”President John looked satisfied.Before long, the door was pushed open, and the waiter served all the dishes. Unlike the traditional type of banquet, which was mostly seafood and meat, the table was filled full of green food, but the arrangement was very particular. Similar to the garden, each dish looked exquisite in terms of form and color.At this moment, an elegant voice spoke from outside the door. “Theo, I have been brewing the soup you wanted for four hours. Let Mrs. Grant drink more.”A man walked in from outside. It was the man she had met in the backyard earlier. Behind him were the little girl and a young and beautiful lady. The lady should be his wife.“You are Mrs. Grant?” He lo

“Now?” I did not know what the person on the other end of the line said, but Theo turned to look at me.“I will get off here!” I guessed that Cindy was looking for him. I quickly signaled him to stop the car.He did not say anything and just parked the car by the roadside. “Zedd and the rest are looking for me. Take a taxi home first.”He said this out of the blue.Was he explaining this to me?My hand paused on the car door, then I nodded and closed it.Feeling flustered, I did not go straight home. Instead, I took out my phone and called Cecilia. “I am at Humanitarian Square. Want to come over?”“You damned woman. It has only been a few days since your miscarriage. Why did you not just lie down at home? Why did you go to Humanitarian Square?” Cecilia snapped.“If you do not come now, I am going to hang up,” I said deliberately, afraid that she would not stop nagging.“Stand there and do not move.” As expected, Cecelia relented and hung up the phone.She arrived in less than

Feeling a little awkward, I told him, “Do not listen to her. There is...nothing else for you to do here. You should go back first.”He looked at me with a smile on his face. “You do not need to be embarrassed. It must be your first time here. I will listen to that lady's orders. I will only talk with you tonight.”I...“Miss, you look very elegant. What do you like to do normally?” He took the initiative to find a topic.“Sleeping.” I smiled.“Sleeping is good for your complexion. No wonder your skin is so good.” He did not mind at all and continued smiling.I could not stand the strange and boring atmosphere anymore. I got up and said, “I am going to the washroom.”After exiting the room, I heaved a sigh of relief and prepared to go downstairs. I did not expect to run into Cindy and Zedd walking towards me.I quickly turned around and pretended not to see them. However, Cindy had sharp eyes and shouted, “Wanda, are you following Theowy?”I could not hide even if I wanted to.

“Wanda!” He frowned and pursed his thin lips, glaring at me coldly.Our eyes met, and I felt stifled. I was not afraid of the coldness in Theo's eyes.After a long while, he said, “I saw Cecilia just now.”I froze. I expected Theo to scold me and then force me to apologize. What I did not expect was him resorting to despicable means of using Cecilia to threaten me. He knew how important Cecilia was to me.I looked at him. He was smiling coldly while looking back at me quietly.I felt a chill in my heart. After a moment of silence, I walked around him and came to Cindy. “I apologize!”Cindy still looked like she had just endured a great grievance.Zedd, who was hugging her, sneered and said disdainfully, “You have no sincerity at all. Cindy has such a big bump on the back of her head. We cannot just let it go like this.”I laughed out of anger. I suppressed the anger in my heart and asked coldly, “What does President Nichols want me to do?”“How about this? For Second Brother's

Back in the room, Zedd was openly gloating while Cindy was leaning against Theo.Theo coldly glanced at me before looking away. There was no emotion on his face.There were still nine glasses of wine left on the table.I felt awful inside. I closed my eyes and picked up another glass, wanting to get this over and done. I just wanted to get out of there.The wine was so strong that I choked. I could not stop my tears from flowing down my cheeks.Perhaps I got used to the wine. After a while, I did not feel nauseous after downing the second glass of wine. I only felt a slight pain in my stomach, and I had cold sweat on my forehead.Mason could tell that something was wrong with me. He held down the third glass of wine I had in my hand and shook his head gently.I stubbornly struggled to free my glass from his hand and put it to my mouth, ready to pour it down my throat.Suddenly, I felt my hand pressed down forcefully, and my body pulled into a familiar embrace.“I will drink th

I held my forehead. I had completely forgotten about Cecilia. Fortunately, this woman still remembered to look for me after a night of fun.Noticing that I did not say anything, Cecilia continued, “It is okay if the overbearing CEO persona did not suit your taste. When you have recovered, I will get a cooler guy for you.”“Thank you. You do not get me involved in this kind of thing in the future. I met Theo and Cindy at the nightclub last night.” I did not want to talk to her about this anymore, so I changed the topic.“F*ck, you caught them cheating red-handed again? It must be an exciting scene. Tell me about it.” Cecilia's tone instantly became excited.“Do you think I have that right?” I held the phone with one hand and got up to pull open the curtains. The sun is high in the sky outside. It was another humid, sunny day.“That is true. You cannot win against that phony b*tch. Forget it, let's not talk about her lest we get upset. When do you plan to leave?” Cecilia was always

I had no choice but to put some soup in my mouth. Before I could drink it, the fishy stench made my stomach churn. I quickly ran to the bathroom and threw up.“Why are you still throwing up?” He looked at me suspiciously.“It’s probably because I drank yesterday. Plus, I’m not used to the smell of mullets since I was young. So…” I explained with guilt in the tone of my voice.His body stiffened up, perhaps recalling last night’s incident.I thought about how this was the first time Theo had cooked for me, so I closed my eyes and forced myself to drink up the fish soup.“You do not have to drink it if you do not want to. I will make another one for you.” He reached out to take the soup bowl and pour the pot of soup into the sink.“I am sorry.” I felt guilty as I knew that he had meant well.“It is my fault. I did not know you did not like fish soup.” His face was placid. His voice was flat and apologetic.I had an indescribable feeling in my heart. After what happened yesterday
