The Woman From Hell

Chapter 2341



While I was working in the afternoon, my phone suddenly rang. I glanced at the caller ID. It was Sylvester.

"What's the matter?" I answered the phone coldly.

"Father wants to meet you, Wanda. Why don't you just meet him once?"

I felt no tenderness at all. There was no need to waste time on unnecessary things. "No need. There's no use for us to meet. You don't need to play emissary anymore."

Sylvester sighed. "Regardless of what you say, he's your father," he said earnestly.

I did not want to listen to his useless rhetoric. Now that I had made a decision, I would not regret it so easily. "If there's nothing else, I'm going to hang up now"

"Wanda, are you so cruel?" came the question from the phone.

I sneered. Cruel? Whatever. "I still have work, so I'll hang up first." I then ended the call without giving him the chance to reply.

After that, I immediately went back to work.

It was nighttime.

I noticed Theo was being absentminded during dinner. He was mostly just eating plain rice.

He left the table after just taking a few bites.

I deliberately went looking for Theo after I was done cleaning up. "Theo, what's wrong with you? You seem to have something on your mind."

He glanced at me, putting on a faint smile. "It's nothing."

I knew he was being stubborn, so I leaned close to him and hugged his arm. "What happened? Tell me, maybe I can help you?"

Theo paused. A trace of emotion flashed through his eyes. It happened so quickly that I did not catch it.

"It's nothing, don't worry."Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

I was a little unhappy. He would not even let me know what happened to him. I was even more worried when I thought that something serious had happened.

"How could it be nothing? Look, your brows are all furrowed. Did you encounter some trouble?"

When Theo heard what I said, he relaxed his features, but he still looked sad. "Don't think too much about it."

I could hear the half-heartedness in his words. The more he was like this, the more worried I was.

After all, this rarely happened to him.

"What's going on that you have to hide it even from me?"

I deliberately pretended to be a little angry, but as expected, he smiled helplessly and quickly opened his mouth to comfort me.

"I'm really fine. It's just some issues with work. Don't worry."

I could tell he was not telling the

truth, but he did not say anything et

else. I knew it was useless to continue asking. "Alright them. If you need my help, just ask."

Theo nodded. "It's getting late. Let's sleep."

Seeing that I could not get anything out of him, I had to give up.

The next day, I thought of his melancholic appearance from the day before the moment I arrived at the company. I figured Keith would know what was going on if it was about work.

Without further ado, I called him.

"Madam."

"Keith, Theo doesn't look too good. Did something happen?"

"What's wrong with President Grant? I didn't notice any problem with him. Did he say something to you?" Keith asked in a calm, formulaic tone. "No, it's just that he looked like he had something on his mind when I saw him yesterday. That's why I'm asking you if there's any problem at work?" "You can ask President Grant about this yourself. There's a limit to what I know. I don't know the answer even if you ask me," Keith replied politely. He refused to reveal a word.

I guessed he might really be in the dark about this specific situation and was even more confused, Just what happened that even Keith had no idea about it?
