The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2020

As if having taken a step in the right direction, my eyes lit up. I looked at Keith again, and with a hint of delight in my voice, I said, "So, Theo is the one guarding the documents, yes?" Keith was a little surprised by my inexplicable joy. He looked confused but nodded. "Yes, but President Grant has lost his memory now and can't remember anything. You should know that this can't be helped, Miss Lane."

Waving my hand, I smiled. "It'll be easy for me to deal with this now that I know. Thank you for today, Keith."

Keith also smiled before a deep look flashed through his eyes. "Did something happen for you to suddenly ask about Heather, Miss Lane? As far as I know, she disbanded her fan group after the cyberbullying incident."

Her disbanding her fan group was enough to prove that she really was ready to retire.

I sighed after hearing what Keith said. It was such a pity that things ended like this when she had obviously been in her prime.

"I want to get to know her because of a friend."

I pursed my lips, smiled, and said nothing more.

I went back to Drover after having a chat with Keith.

The moment I entered the door, I saw Drover sitting on the sofa, motionless. He was wearing a very serious expression, and the aura emanating from his body made one shudder.

The temperature in the room had plummeted sharply. I felt the low pressure and slowly approached him. "Drover, what's wrong?"

The residence was terribly quiet. Even my small voice was particularly loud in this environment at this moment.

He looked at me with a cold light in his eyes, which made me take a few steps back.

The aura surrounding Drover's body scared me. It felt like a huge net trying to trap me.

I gulped, my throat bobbing slightly. My feet, which were once free, were now unable to move. It was as if they had been rooted. My heart was beating fast.

He slowly got up. There seemed to be a trace of danger concealed in his slightly narrowed eyes. He gradually approached me, and his aura felt like it was drowning me. "Where did you go?"

His question was endlessly commanding.

I was unaware of the reason behind Drover's sudden change, but I knew I could not tell him the truth.

Looking at him, I pretended to be relaxed and wore a smile on the corners of my mouth. "I just went out for a chat with a friend from before."

Drover tilted his head to look at me,

His tone softened a little, but his expression was still terrifying.

This shaky voice made me completely lose my self-confidence. I had probably been stunned by his aura.

This was the first time I have seen Drover like this.

No, this was the second time. He had been like this as well the last time, but he was more ferocious this time compared to the last.

I dared not look him in the eye despite nodding.

"Look at me when you answer."

He forced me to look at him and my heart beat wildly.

I did not dare look him in the eyes. I was afraid that I would not be able to keep myself from telling him everything...
