The Woman From Hell
Chapter 1996

His embrace was fierce and intense, and it almost suffocated me. Drover noticed something was wrong and pulled me out of his embrace while patiently saying, "She won't be able to take it if you continue hugging her so what."

"Won't be able to take what? Could it be that I'm too handsome that you almost fainted from my allure, Sis Wan?" I did not know what was the connection between the two, but Marius was still able to connect them together.

I laughed out loud and just shook my head.

Just when he was about to start again, Drover grabbed him. "It's because you're suffocating her."

We entered the room together. Marius scratched his head and looked at me with embarrassment. "Sorry, Sis Wan. I got a little excited and perhaps was a little heavy-handed. You don't know this, but I was nex to Drover when you sent the message but he asked me to stay and watch the house. He didn't allow me to tag along. Isn't he just asking me to get worried sick from waiting?"

Knowing that he also cared about me, I smiled at him. "It's okay, but I guess I won't be able to go back to Regal Villa anymore."

"Just stay here." Drover's voice drifted over from not far away.

He brought two glasses of water and handed one of them to me. Marius was just about to grab the other, but Drover downed it in the next second. "Go pour yourself a cup if you want a drink." Marius looked helpless. "This is favoritism."

He chose not to drink after that and just slumped on the sofa.

"It seems a little out of place for me to stay here. You two are, after all, grown men."

"It's okay. If it bothers you, I can go stay at Marius' house and leave this place to you."

When I heard this, I no longer dared voicing any objections and just quickly shook my head. "No that's alright. I'll live here temporarily, then."

Drover nodded. "Your room is still the same. You didn't take away all your clothes that time. Just throw away the old ones. I'll buy some new ones for you tomorrow."

His thoughtfulness made even Marius jealous. "Brother, when will you treat me like this too?"

"When you become a woman!"

"Wow, ruthless much?"

Watching them quarrel, I thought they must have a good relationship.

A multitude of thoughts were

"Why?"

"Why?"

The two of them asked in unison, their expressions one of puzzlement.

I rolled my eyes. "Uhm... to get my stuff back."

Drover did not object. He just told me to be careful. "I have official business tomorrow, so why don't Marius accompany you?"

"Yes, Sis Wan. I'll be your escort. With me, that woman, Nicky, won't even think twice about bullying you," Marius proclaimed as he patted his chest.

I nodded. "Okay, let's go together tomorrow."

"Alright, then I'll head back to my room to practice. I'll scare her to death tomorrow," Marius said and ran upstairs.

Looking at his fiery silhouette, Drover and I looked at each other and smiled.

He walked up to me and smiled brightly. "You're probably tired from today. You should go back to your room to rest early." "You too. You've worked hard. Thank you."

"You've already thanked me. Stop thanking me if you take me as a friend."

"Alright, good night, then."

"Good night."

I went back to the room and looked around the place. It had only been one day, but I felt as if my frame of mind had changed.

Going back to Regal Villa tomorrow should be quite exciting.

I chose a set of pajamas and then started washing up. After washing up, I lay on the bed. My mind was filled with Theo. I still missed him a lot. Just what would I have to do to stop thinking about him?

I might as well have amnesia too...
