The Woman From Hell

Chapter 2358



After four hours, the plane finally landed.

Don helped me carry the luggage to the hall, and I hurriedly called to him, "Thank you, but you can give it to me."

"Which hotel are you staying at?"

"Heavenward."

This hotel was the closest to Salt City University, which made traveling back and forth convenient.

I thought we would part ways here, but Don smiled. "It just so happens that I also booked a room there. Let's go together." This was too coincidental.

I thought to myself if he also went to Salt City University?

Seeing me frozen in place, Don called my name, "Wanda, let's go."

"Oh, yes." I followed his pace and turned my head to look at him. "Are you headed to Salt City University, Professor Logan?"

He was taken aback for a moment hearing this and then nodded. "Yes, could you be too?"

I really hit the nail on the head.

I nodded. "That's right."

"The banquet!"

"The banquet!"

We said in unison.

We looked at each other and smiled. After exchanging some information, I realized that Don and I were from the same class.

"We were from the same class. I don't recall hearing your name when I was in school, though."

"You wouldn't have known. I thought your name was very familiar, but I couldn't recall it for a moment. It turns out you were an outstanding student from Salt City University. Your name was included in the scholarship every year. No wonder it was familiar," Don said with a smile.

I thought about it and said, "You're a university professor now. Your grades must be much better than mine."

"I'm the prodigal son. I can't compare to you. You have both a good character and good skills."

"How can someone who was invited back be unknown?" I looked at him and asked with a smile. The car soon stopped at Heavenward Hotel.

I had booked a room online and was able to check in quickly. We happened to be on the same floor.

"Are you going back to the school tomorrow morning?"

"Certainly."

"Want to go together?"

"Okay."

"See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

I entered the room after swiping the card. The room was quite large and clean, and there was a faint fragrance in the air. My phone rang at this moment. It was Theo.

"Have you arrived?" came his deep voice when I answered.

"Yes, I just arrived at the hotel," I responded to him mechanically.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Theo's tone was concerned. "You must be tired. Go to bed early."

"You too. Good night."

"Good night."

After hanging up the call, I looked at the 59 seconds marker displayed on the screen. Our call had been less than a minute. There was a hint of bitterness, and I felt an unspeakable sadness in my heart.

Not long after that call, another came.

I also knew that it was Shannon this time.

"How are things? Have you arrived?" I answered.

"Yeah, why are you still awake this late?"

"It's one of the rare times that I don't have to wake up early the next day. Of course, I'm going to stay up late."

"You seem to have forgotten that you have a mission." I frowned as I reminded her.

I could hear a smile in Shannon's

voice. "Don't worry, I made the

arrangements long ago. I'll defil

take

care of it for you."

"It'd better be that way."

"How is it? You're back in Salt City. Does it not give you a warm feeling?" Shannon's words made me fall into deep thought.

I did not really feel anything right after getting off the plane as my heart was heavy. Now that she brought it up, I walked to the window and looked out at the night scene outside. "It is familiar yet not really," I replied.

"Since you're back there, have fun. Put those things aside first and deal with them when you come back." Shannon was worried that I would still be thinking about those annoying matters when I was on my break this time.

"I will."

I understood what she meant. "I also met my former classmate this time, which is not bad."

"Oh, that's not bad. You even met an old classmate."

"Don't overthink. It was just a coincidence."

"I'm not thinking anything. You should tell yourself that," Shannon teased me still.

I did not reply to that. We just chatted about some things before finally ending with a 'good night'.
