The Woman From Hell -
Chapter 1731
Chapter 1731
Upon listening to his words, there was nothing I could do to comfort him. After all, this was all caused by Matthew himself. Moreover, even I thought that Liz was right to choose to leave.
"Letting go when you don't love her is a good thing," I said after a long silence.
Matthew still looked at me with a bit of affection deep in his eyes. "Wanda, you know that I'm still waiting for you."
I looked at him with a smile, perhaps mixed with some resentment I had toward him. "Is that so? Well, I'm pregnant, Mr. Zimmer. Please be careful so as not to mislead the child in my womb."
Matthew's smile froze, and he sat down. He seemed calm, but it made me feel slightly cold. "Tell me, how did you find this place?"
"I'd like to ask you what were you doing at the police station, Mr. Zimmer?" I narrowed my eyes and smiled.
In an instant, Matthew stood up, walked up to me, and frowned. "Are you interrogating me?" Then, he seemed to have recalled something again and changed his words." Is Theo Grant investigating me?"
I pursed my lips and smiled, staring at him with a hint of coolness in my eyes. "If you hadn't planted a mole in Grant Corporation, Theo wouldn't be investigating you."
Once everything was out in the open, it was as if Matthew had regained his composure. He lowered his head and sunk into deep thought for a while. Then, he went back to the sofa and sat down. He crossed his legs and looked at me with his most relaxed attitude before spreading his hands and saying, "Since you already know about it, why'd you come here specifically to ask me?"
"I want to know your purpose." I sat across from him, watching him like a prisoner." That's why I'm here."
Matthew unfolded his legs and placed his elbows on them while his hands were crossed between his legs. He looked up at me and said, "Wanda, if I said it was all for you, would you believe me?"
I stared into his eyes, and they seemed sincere and affectionate with a hint of a smile. I shook my head and replied, "You went around an entire circle to set up such a big scene to say that it's all for me? Do you think I'll fall for that?"
"Why not?" Matthew raised his hand and was oozing with imposingness. "As long as Grant Corporation loses its prestige, I stand a chance to swoop in to take you far away from Whaldorf City so that he can never find us."
His words sounded nothing but a joke in my ears. "And what makes you think I'll go with you, Mr. Zimmer?"
"I don't get it, Wanda. What's so
good about Theo? He clearly failed
you before, yet you forgave him and decided to start all over with him. I
truly
don't understand."
Matthew looked confused. He truly could not comprehend it.
"It's because I love him very much. I was able to forgive him after I knew that he did everything for my own good."
"What about me? I've been so good to you. Have you ever reciprocated my feelings?" Matthew asked eagerly. Matthew had saved me before even though it almost cost him his life. My heart softened up in an instant.
"I'm extremely grateful and touched
by your gestures, but that's all there is to it. Matthew, stop doing foolish things. You've already lost a person like Liz who loves you so much Stop obstinately persisting in going about things the wrong way."
Matthew saw the determination in my eyes, and his eyes actually turned
C. His nose was somewhat
Von
crimson as well. "I truly regret it, Wanda."
"If I had known that saving you would lead to you reconciling with Theo, then I would've rather died with you in that car accident."
His words truly sent chills down my spine.
Matthew had truly changed.
I opened my mouth but could not seem to say a complete sentence. In the end, I said nothing.
Matthew was equally silent as well.
The entire room was pin-drop silent.
