The Woman From Hell
Chapter 1707

Chapter 1707



The media truly thrived when the whole world was in chaos. That same night, I saw the news from the afternoon being reported on the inte.

'Another secret to Serena Zoel's death'

'Theo Grant's wife, Wanda Lane, is the real culprit!'

Titles like these left me distraught with anxiety. As I put my phone down, I lay flat on the sofa while stroking my belly.

"I truly pity you. You have to suffer such a thing while still being in my stomach." I sighed.

Theo came over, and his appearance made it seem like nothing had happened. "It's quite late now. Aren't you going to bed?"

His soft tone was making me dizzy. I slowly sat up and leaned on his strong shoulders as if I was leaning on a mountain. In fact, he truly was someone I could lean on. "Do you think I'm that dense? How can I fall asleep right now?"

He stretched out his hand to embrace me and exerted a little strength as if to reassure me. "The matter is non-existent. Why should you take it to heart?"

"You're not the one being slandered here."

I pushed him slightly, and he grabbed onto my hand. "Husband and wife are the same. Slandering you only means that they're slandering me as well."

He could still let out a smile at this moment.

I clutched my stomach, feeling rather tangled. "But Mrs. Zoel's right. I'm

somewhat connected to Serena's death."

"How so?"

It seemed like I never told him after Serena's accident. However, with Theo's capability, it was impossible that he had not discovered it.

I raised my eyes and focused on Theo." Could it be that after Serena's accident, you didn't even bother to investigate?"

Hearing my words, Theo's mouth curled up slightly. "You guessed it."

"Matthew himself admitted it."

I suddenly remembered what Matthew said that day, and suddenly, my expression became serious. "If it wasn't Matthew, would that person have been you?"

Theo turned his gaze to me and pulled me into his arms. "There are no ifs, Wanda."

At this moment, I felt so glad.

At the very least, Theo did not get his hands dirty because of me.

That reminded me that Julie did owe a lot of high-interest loans, so she might have come to us for money.

I told Theo about this, and he agreed with me. "But I'm still skeptical about this...

"Everyone in Whaldorf City knows how powerful Theo Grant is, so logically speaking, Daniel and Julie wouldn't have simply come straight to us. Plus, the reporters seemed to have come prepared. I'm afraid that the matter isn't as simple ascit seems." After I calmed down, my whole head became clearer. I began to think about the matters that happened in the afternoon.

Julie was in the entertainment industry before, so it would be easy for her to pull some strings.

Theo nodded. "Mm, but you should leave this matter alone so as not to make our baby unhappy. I'll handle it from now on."

He was already busy with company

affairs all day, but now, he had to take his time to deal with my affairs. I buried my head deep in his arms. "I'm so glad I have you, Theo."

"You only realized that now?"

"No. I realized it a long time ago." I raised my head, and my eyes were bright.

As he looked at me, Theo's eyes darkened." If you keep looking at me like that, I won't be able to help myself."

Hearing this, I quickly turned my eyes away and got up from the sofa. "I'm heading over to Munchkin's room to see if he's asleep."

I escaped quickly and could vaguely hear Theo's light chuckling behind me.

It was already this late, so Munchkin must have fallen asleep. It was indeed a very lame excuse, but was not in the mood to cater to Theo's needs tonight. The only option was to escape.

It was just that I truly wondered if he could handle this matter well...
