The Woman From Hell

"Theo, you are really too self-righteous."

The conversation had gotten to this point, and any more would be useless. I was not willing to speak again.

Although Theo was unable to control his emotions properly due to jealousy, I could not help but feel pushed further away because of his assertive words.

In the end, the two of us looked at each other wordlessly before he continued driving back to the house that was no longer the same...

It was already late when the car stopped at Regal Villa.

When I got out of the car and then stepped into the living room, Delia greeted me with joy on her face, "Wanda, you guys are back. It was already late when President Grant went to pick you up. I figured you guys must be hungry when you come back, so I prepared supper in advance.

"Home is still the best, no?"

Delia's hospitality was dishonest. but I did not eat anything in this house that was not made by Caroline. "No, my stomach can't handle any more food. If you're free, you should make more food to replenish your own body."

Delia was wearing an aggrieved expression again as if she had suffered greatly just from being rejected. I just wanted to remind her not to spend her useless thoughts on me.

"You didn't eat anything after getting off the plane just now, no? You should eat something."

Even if Theo were to keep her at home or give her some so-called respect, no one could force me to do something I did not want to do.

"I don't want to eat what she made. My answer won't change no matter how many times you ask."

"Wanda, you wouldn't be so unreasonable before. Everything is my fault. You don't need to take your anger out on her." Theo was already angry since our previous misunderstanding had not been resolved, and now we had another conflict. It was all just because I did not want to fake magnanimity and treat Delia with courtesy.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

I was not going to suffer this humiliation for no reason. "Theo, if you truly understand me, you wouldn't have embarrassed me with such things, before and now."

After saying this, I no longer felt like staying. I went upstairs and back to my room.

I stopped at the corner and glanced at the people downstairs.

Delia looked absolutely desperate as if everything she was doing was to maintain Theo and my relationship when the truth was she wanted him for her own. "Oh, I shouldn't have been such a busybody. Now everyone is mad again..."

"Don't think too much. Go and rest early."

Hearing their conversation, I went back to the room without turning back.

Theo had rushed to the airport from the company. While I was not rude to him, was still considered courteous. He probably had not expected everyone to go their

separate ways unhappily.

The next day.

I went to the company after I received Shannon's call. Forgetting everything that made me unhappy and redirecting my attention was the best solution.

Fortunately, not much work had accumulated when I arrived at the company and the morning was enough for me to finish them.

When it was about lunchtime,

Shannon noted the sourness of my

expression and guessed that

something must be weighing on my mind. She cried out loud after, hearing what happened the

before.

"I knew that Delia wasn't playing around. The two-faced, scheming wretch."

"Stop bringing her up. You're gonna kill my appetite."

Although I was unable to avoid contact with her at home, I still wanted to be able to eat peacefully outside since I would only have the energy to do things once I was full. "You're right. She is indeed disgusting. I almost forgot to tell you that the day you left, she..."

Shannon informed me that she had been tracking Delia's whereabouts and that she would occasionally ge to Grant Corporation but not go up since Theo had been staying at the company instead of going back home.
