The Woman From Hell
Chapter 1539

Chapter 1539



I strolled around the aquarium, way past the jellyfish area. The light hidden around the corner caught my attention.

The marine park had made its surroundings darker to make visitors feel as though they were truly at the bottom of the ocean. There was only natural light in the performance area. I thought I found the exit when I saw the light.

I was mumbling to myself that this should not be all there was to the marine park while I walked in the direction of the light.

I walked past the corner. A dreamy deep sea underwater tunnel came into sight.

Step by step, I walked toward the tunnel. It was as though I was walking in the ocean. I lifted my head and saw a stingray swim

past the tunnel, covering the light above my head.

When the stingray swam away, it was bright again. My gaze followed that stingray uncontrollably, and a turtle drew my attention as I shifted my gaze to it.

I stared at the turtle while my body unconsciously took another step forward. I hardly noticed what was behind me, and I accidentally stepped on something hard. I lost my balance and I almost fell.

However, a pair of strong hands caught me from behind in a second. The moment our gaze met, I realized it was Theo.

"Why are you so enthralled by the things children love?"

I glared at him and replied, "Who told you that only children are allowed to like these things. Aren't those ocean documentaries directed by adults?" Theo knew he could not convince me, and he smiled at me.

I thought the marine park would be something like the other amusement parks. We came here just to make Munchkin happy, but I did not expect that the quiet environment of the aquarium would make me feel relaxed.

Suddenly, I noticed that no one was beside Theo. My head pounded with tension." Where's Munchkin?"

I searched behind him nervously

"He's there." Theo pointed in the direction not far away from us.

I looked behind him. Munchkin was surrounded by a bunch of kids, and he was among the crowd that was packed like sardines.

"Mr. Lane isn't short of students now. I'm way too old for that, so I was arranged to be seated at the back of the class. Then, a girl who skipped class caught my attention."

I smiled and stared at him. We were already old enough. There were no classes for us to skip anymore.

I looked at Munchkin, who stood out

in the crowd not far away from us. He was not afraid of sharing his knowledge with the others in front of the children and parents. I could not help but put on a smile.

Suddenly, Munchkin caught sight of Theo and me in the crowd. He turned around and said to the other children, "Daddy and Mommy are waiting for me. I'll continue the story next time."

He waved his hand and made his way out of the crowd.

The children were reluctant to part with him, and I could see it in their eyes.

The parents felt sorry for their children.

After all, the adults had enough

pressure to handle during the

weekdays when they worked. Not to mention they had to play the role of an encyclopedia to talk about the underwater world to their children when they came to the marine park. It was a big deal for most of the parents.

It was not easy for them to find a child who could be their children's guide. Munchkin answered their

children's questions and satisfied et

their curiosity. However, the child suddenly told them that he had to go back to his parents' side. It was impossible that those parents would not feel regretful.

Munchkin ran toward us. I could see the envious look in those parents' eyes.

I held Munchkin's hand and asked him, "Don't you want to play with them a little longer?"

It seemed like Munchkin enjoyed sharing the knowledge he learned from watching TV with others. He could play with them for a little longer if he wished to.
