The Woman From Hell

"What's up today? You look angry so early in the morning. Did that woman give you grief again?"

I could not help myself from breaking my act the moment I heard Shannon worrying about me. I smiled and shook my head.

I had been pretending to be angry the entire journey.

The act required me to go all the way, and I did not want to give up halfway and be spotted by Delia.

"You!"

Shannon was even more puzzled when she saw me smiling so abruptly.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She walked up to me, her expression becoming more and more worried.

"Don't tell me you've gone mad from your anger? Why is that woman so annoying?!"

Shannon was gritting her teeth from anger. She wished she could fight Delia right away.

"No, it's nothing. I'm just a little happy." I quickly waved my hand.

My mood had been rather poor lately during this time.

It was all because of Delia.

However, I had ascertained the day before that Delia was orchestrating everything. At the same time, Theo and I talked about this matter.

It was like more than half of the burden that I was carrying had been lifted.

Not to mention how I managed to fool Delia this morning.

"Delia didn't make me angry this morning. Instead, I made her angry."

I made up an excuse as to why I was so happy.

"Good job!"

Shannon applauded immediately.

"I'd say you should have done this a long time ago. She's just a mistress yet still insists on swaggering in front of you. I think you're too kind sometimes!" She clicked her tongue, the smile on her face also becoming wider.

I could tell that her anger was also relieved after what I had done to Delia.

"If Delia keeps provoking you again, keep doing what you did. Do your best!"

Shannon clenched her hand into a fist, looking all-spirited.

"Regardless, Delia is still the one who was wrong first. You're the one who has suffered, so why do you have to keep giving in to her

Of course, that was how it was going to be from now on.

OUMS

I would pretend to argue with Theo, and of course, I would not let the culprit behind all this go.

Had Delia not been trying her best to separate Theo and me?

It would be best to let her feel the anger that came after our relationship broke down.

"Don't worry, I won't let her go.

Alright, alright. I'm hungry now after all that talking. I didn't manage to finish my breakfast this morning."

I only had a few spoonfuls of my oats before leaving in a hurry.

Now, my stomach was empty.

"I have some biscuits over there. Let me bring some for you."

Shannon said briskly and was about to head out with a smile on her face when I quickly stopped her.

She nodded repeatedly and gestured an 'OK' at me. She then motioned zipping her mouth shut.

"Don't worry. I get what you're saying."

Shannon coughed lightly, and the expression on her face calmed. She then put on a cold expression before leaving the office. She came back in with some biscuits under the pretext of sending documents after a while.

"Eat up quick. I'll make you a cup of coffee."

She put down the biscuits and hurried to go grab me a coffee. Her coming and going were enough to get quite some people guessing.
