The Woman From Hell
Chapter 947

Chapter 947

"Theo,” I called out to him. My voice was not very loud but it was loud enough for him to hear it from this distance.

However, he did not seem to hear me as he continued t o stand there.

I sat up from the bed. Just as I planned to get out of bed to go to him, he turned his head. His eyes were dark and deep, carrying traces of coldness. "You're awake?"

I nodded. "When did you come back?"

He did not reply and merely walked up to me in silence. He looked at me.

I was flustered by his gaze and asked in a hoarse voice, "What's wrong?"

He spoke slowly, his voice filled with coldness, "If it weren't for Munchkin, would you have left me without a second thought?"

I frowned. "What are you talking about?”

"You met up with Matthew?” he asked in an exceedingly calm voice.

Although he seemed calm, I knew he was exploding with anger.

I pursed my lips and explained, "I wasn't feeling very well so I went to the hospital to get myself checked. I ran into him at the entrance of the hospital."

He fell silent for a very long time before sitting on the bed and lifting his hand to stroke my hair. "Promise m e that you'll never see him again."

No matter how soft his voice was, I knew through my many years of being with him that he was very mad at the moment.

Moreover, Theo seemed especially terrifying when he was suppressing his anger in his heart like this.

Therefore, I could only nod my head in compliance. I tried my best not to infuriate him further. "I didn’t want to see him either. We happened to run into each other this time, so I had no way of avoiding him."

"I'll deal with it," Theo said in an icy tone.

My heart tightened. "What do you plan to do?"

"Wanda!" Theo's sharp eyes narrowed slightly. "Don't make me angrier."

I pursed my lips and said no more.

He touched my forehead and said blandly, "Your fever i s down. Take your pills after you have your meal later and get some rest. I'll come back earlier tonight."

I nodded. "I'll take care of myself. You go deal with work."

I would be suffocated to death if he did not leave.

After Theo left, Caroline brought the dishes upstairs.

After having my meal and taking my pills, I felt sleepy in no time. However, I could not sleep no matter what. My mind was in a mess.

Just two days ago, I had watched a short video about relationships. In the video, it was said that when a woman left a man when he was most in love with her, that man would love her forever. Otherwise, it would b e difficult to escape the ending where both end up in mutual distaste.

Although this was a saddening way to put it, it was not entirely wrong either.

Matthew was right. The Grants needed an heir of their own bloodline. It might be fine if I did not give birth in the next two years, but what about the two years after that?

Quinn would start to pay special attention to this and bring it up to Theo often. Perhaps she would even persuade him to divorce me straight away. I could not say for sure that Theo would not be unhappy with me.

No matter how close the bond between two people was, it would still be difficult to withstand the deliberate destruction that came from others.

What was more, an even more outstanding woman had appeared beside him. In fact, I lacked confidence i n saying that Theo would not fall in love with her.

Theo and Elena were a perfect match in every aspect.

Most importantly, Elena had a very healthy body and could give birth to a baby for him.

The more I thought about it, the worse I felt. I could not lie in bed anymore and went downstairs to watch TV.

Theo came back at five o’clock.

We had dinner together. After dinner, Munchkin wanted me to do puzzles with him. I played with him for almost an hour before my head started to hurt a little, so I went back to the room to rest.

Not long after Theo went to the study to finish his work, he returned to the bedroom as well.

He seemed to be in a much better mood and was finally not pulling a long face.

After taking a shower and coming out of the bathroom, he sat on the bed and tried to hold my hand. However, I avoided it and looked up at him with a small smile. I said, "You’re probably tired after a

busy day. Lie down and get some rest."

Although it was difficult to tell from my face, Theo knew that something was wrong. We both knew each other very well when it came to things like this.

He pressed both hands beside me and trapped me firmly in between. "Wanda, tell me what I've done to upset you?”

"I'm not upset with you." I looked at him with calm eyes.

Theo frowned and said angrily, "Are you heartbroken after seeing how down and out Matthew is now? Do you want to be a saint and save him again?”

I was infuriated too. "What nonsense are you talking about, Theo Grant?"

"Nonsense?" Theo sneered. "You pushed me to Elena i n the dessert shop yesterday and went to the hospital today to meet Matthew. You’re preparing to go to him now, aren’t you?"

I laughed in anger. Not bothering to talk sense into him, I said angrily, “Elena is both talented and beautiful. She’s a better match for you than me."

Theo gritted his teeth. "Am I supposed to thank you for being so considerate, then?"

I tilted my head to the side and said coldly, "You’re welcome."

I heard a gust of wind beside my ear. Theo smashed his fist into the wall beside my head and roared," You're really something, Wanda Lane! Other women often rack their brains to stop their husbands from cheating and here you are, afraid that I won't cheat!"

The last few words were almost squeezed out of his teeth. His anger had reached the extreme.

I was momentarily speechless and could only hold my tongue.

"Look at me." Theo pinched my chin and forced me to look into his eyes. "Do you really want to go to

Matthew?” "How many times do I have to say that I don't love him at all?"

I felt tremendously aggrieved and teared up uncontrollably. "I just thought you had work to discuss in the dessert shop yesterday. That's why I left. I figured it was inappropriate for me to be there. Besides, I really wanted to go shopping in the mall. I said it before that I trust you won't do anything to hurt me, and neither will I. Matthew and I just happened to run into each other in the hospital today.”

Theo’s expression eased up when he saw that I had teared up.

He fell silent for a very long time and said, "I'm sorry, I got too emotional.”

I shook my head, not saying a word. I then pushed him away to go to the bathroom.

Only an evenly-matched love could go a long way. We were too far apart from each other.

After entering the bathroom and looking at my pale face in the mirror, I was a little dazed. How was I supposed to finish the rest of the journey?

I stayed in the bathroom for a very long time and saw Theo smoking on the balcony when I came out.
