The Woman From Hell -
Chapter 1708
Chapter 1708
The next day.
I had just come downstairs when I saw that Munchkin and Theo were already at the table.
Seeing me coming over, Theo waved at me. "You're awake? Come have breakfast."
I stepped forward, sat down, and took a sip of milk. Then, Theo continued, "I'll ask the driver to drive Munchkin to school in a while, so you can rest at home."
I knew he said this because of Munchkin's presence. He actually wanted me to stay out of the house to avoid being harassed
Regal Villa was guarded by specialists, so those people who wanted to stir up chaos could not get inside. Hence, staying at
home was the best protection for me.
I was well aware of the situation and had no objection. “Alright.”
After breakfast, Munchkin and Theo left
I sat on the sofa while watching TV and reading magazines. It was incredibly boring. Caroline cooked me lunch around noon, and after eating, I went into the room to take a nap. When I got up, it was already nighttime.
Even if I could not go out, I thought heading to the supermarket would be alright.
Thinking that I wanted to personally cook for dinner, I changed my clothes and said," I'm going to the supermarket to buy some ingredients, Caroline." “But Mr. Grant said that you shouldn't be going out, Madam." "It'll be alright. I'm just going to the nearby supermarket, so it's okay. I can always wear a mask."
In the end, Caroline could not stop me and had to let me go out.
The supermarket was just a few steps away from the villa, and I arrived quickly.
After the purchase, I went to the cashier to settle the bill, but an awkward event unfolded. I had forgotten to bring my mobile phone and had no cash on me, which stumped me for a while.
Looking at the cashier embarrassedly, I said, "Um... I'm sorry. I came out in a hurry and forgot to bring my phone. I think I'll have to leave these here." "Wait, Miss. Nowadays, you can pay using facial recognition. Why not try it out?"
'Is that so? Okay, sure.
Thinking that it would be impolite to leave all the things here, I took off my mask and used facial
recognition to pay. Afterward, the cashier helped me put the things into the bags.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Huh? Aren't you that Wanda lady?"
As soon as that woman said this, she immediately attracted other onlookers. "Yeah, that's Wanda Lane! Do you actually have
something to do with Serena Zoel's matter?"
"Wanda..."
In order to avoid being obstructed again, I quickly took the things and went out.
However, in the eyes of others, I would seem to be running away out of guilt.
I felt somewhat helpless and looked at them. "Serena's accident had nothing to do with me, so it's best to not give too much attention to me."
"Is that the truth? Did you really have nothing to do with it?"
There were more and more onlookers.
Even if the security guards from the supermarket came over, it was of no use.
"I think she's lying. She's the one who murdered Serena! She's a bad person!"
I had no clue who was sputtering those words, but someone immediately echoed her. Then, all kinds of vegetables were thrown at me. It was not that I cared about this, but I was worried about scaring the child in my belly.
All of a sudden, someone took my hand and said, "Run!"
A familiar voice...
I hurriedly followed him, rushed out of the crowd, and ran out of the supermarket.
After running for some distance, I just had to stop. While caressing my belly, I panted and said, "That's enough now, Xander. No one's chasing after me."
"I didn't think you'd recognize me," Xander said and took off his mask.
"I didn't, but your voice betrayed you." I looked around and put on a mask for safety's sake. "You should put it on too. After all, you're quite well- known."
Xander shrugged and smiled. "I've been behind the scenes for so long now..."
