The Woman From Hell Chapter 37
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

Her voice was not as delicate or rude as usual, but surprisingly calm.I was puzzled. What did she want to talk about?I did not open the door but instead, I sent Theo a message. ‘Miss Reed is outside the door. She wants to talk to me.’I also did not know why I sent that message to Theo.Naturally, humans were greedy. Ever since I felt that Theo's attitude toward me had changed for the better, I subconsciously wanted more of it.Right after I had sent the message, Theo called.I went back to the couch and laid down before answering the phone. A whirlwind of emotions stirred in my heart.“Where are you?” His voice was low and soft as if he were in a meeting.“Inside the house,” I whispered.“Do not open the door. Just go upstairs and have a good sleep.” His voice was very soft and gentle.My heart skipped a beat. “Okay!”After hanging up, I ignored Cindy, who was still shouting outside, and headed upstairs.I noticed the study room door was left open when I passed the room.

I was shocked and quickly turned on the light. It was Theo. Dressed in black, he was seated quietly by the bed, looking at me without any expression on his face.Why did this man always like to scare me by sitting on the edge of the bed like this? I patted my chest, feeling relieved. "You scared me."“You did not do anything wrong. What is there to be afraid of?” He said calmly.“People could really scare other people to death, don't you know that?” I rolled my eyes at him and sat up straight.I had just woken up with sleepy eyes, and my hair messy. I had not changed out of my nightgown yet. I rarely appeared like this in front of Theo, so I felt a little uncomfortable and quickly got up to change.His eyes never left me.I looked down and realized that two of the buttons on my nightgown had come undone.“Ah!” I cried out in alarm. I covered my chest with both hands and hastily fastened the buttons.“Did the doctor say how many days you will have to wait?” Theo suddenly asked.

“Not in the mood for noodles?” Seeing that I was still holding the fork, Theo frowned and asked with a displeased tone.“That is not it. I will eat it right away.” After saying that, I lowered my head and ate two mouthfuls. My stomach was so uncomfortable that I almost wanted to vomit several times. In the end, I forced myself to swallow it.Theo took my noodle bowl and placed it away on the table. Without saying a word, he pulled me upstairs.I panicked and struggled to say, “Theo, what are you doing? I have not finished yet...” Even though it was worse than taking medicine, I had to finish the food because he made it for me.He still did not say anything. His face was grim.“I did not mean to.” I said, trying to explain. “It is because I have not been feeling well for the last two days. I could not handle the sudden smell of oil. Let go of me. I can finish the noodles.”However, he was not interested in listening. He pushed me into the room. “Go in and change. I will take you o

“You can have it. I have already eaten my dinner.” Theo pushed the bowl of porridge over and spoke in a gentle voice.I was taken aback by the situation in front of me.He knew all of Cindy's preferences. However, he did not know that I did not like fish soup or noodles with too much oil. That was why she was the one he truly placed in his heart. I could never catch up to Cindy in this aspect.“Wanda, you were the one who chose the place to eat tonight, right? You did not know Theo never eats hotpot, right?” Cindy reminded me with a “sincere” smile.“This was what I wanted to eat.” I did not say anything else. I lowered my head and cooked the hotpot ingredients.Cindy was stunned for a moment before she smiled. “Wanda, I know what Theowy likes to eat. The next time you want to come out for a meal, you can ask me first. I will tell you in secret.”I was speechless. I have met b*tches before, but this is the first time I meet a b*tch with such audacity.“Theowy, the millet porridg

He strode with large steps to my side with a cold expression. “You are an adult. Do you not know how to conduct yourself properly?”I laughed angrily. “Perhaps I do not know how to behave, but at least I know basic courtesy and manners. I would not cling on to a married man nor would I favor other women in front of my wife.”“Wanda!” His expression suddenly changed. His eyes were fierce as he gripped my shoulders with both hands. His strength was great as he gritted his teeth and said word by word, “Are you trying to test my limits?”My shoulders felt like they were about to break from his grip. I fought back the heart-wrenching pain as a sneer formed on my lips. “Are you trying to kill me? I have already died countless times before. Why would I care about this?”He was so angry he could explode. His jaw clenched so tightly that his teeth gritted together. He raised his fist and was about to hit me. I was fearless and glared at him coldly. Finally, he slammed his fist into the tree
