The Woman From Hell Chapter 2638
There was a huge shift in Theo’s expression when Neil was brought up. I could clearly see his Adam's apple bob slightly as he swallowed. He seemed nervous.I did not ask any more questions and just waited for Theo to answer.A moment passed before Theo slowly answered me, "Maybe. He’s been keeping you company the entire time when you were at Susan’s apartment.""So, you're jealous?" I asked him with a tilt of my head.Theo nodded slowly. "Yes. My wife was alone with a stranger. Of course, I’m jealous."Despite his saying so, he was behaving completely differently than how one would if they were jealous.He probably had his reasons for keeping the truth from me, but I believed Theo would tell me about it one day. Thus, I did not press him with more questions. Instead, I just smiled and said, "We can’t just keep all our friends at the door after getting married. Come now, I wouldn’t be jealous if you had friends of the opposite sex.”"Is that so?" Theo asked me back with a smile.

That evening, recalling the incident in the mountains made Nina sad, and she ended up drinking a lot. I could not stop her and could only call Jason and ask him to come over to take her home.After I was done talking to Jason, I looked back at Nina who was lying on the sofa while shaking my head slowly.Shannon came back from dancing and saw Nina who was now drunk. "How much did she drink?""Not much. It doesn’t look like she holds her alcohol well." I smiled.Her mood took a dive when she mentioned the mountains, and so did mine.Despite it having been a long time, I still feel terrified when I thought about it.If it had not been for the honest Frank Fulmer, it would have been a while before Theo found us.We took Nina out of the bar. Jason arrived just in time, and when he saw Nina drunk, he frowned slightly. "Why did you drink so much?"Handing Nina to him, I said, “She ended up drinking a bit more when she recalled some sad things. Hurry up and take her home."“Thank you.

After that came a long week of work.In all honesty, I never thought one year could feel so long. It was probably due to how troublesome work was every day.I was talking to Theo about the project procedure in the office when I heard a knock on the door."Come in."Keith entered slowly. He looked at me, signaling me mildly before fixing his eyes on Theo. "President Grant, Mr. Nibel is here."His timing was immaculate."Invite him in."He must have come to ask me how the face cream was after using it. My ears registered Nibel’s voice a little while later. "President Grant, President Lane, you’re all here.”We ceased our discussion and looked toward the arriving person simultaneously.I continued before Nibel could say anything else, "Mr. Nibel, you’re just in time. This is my report from using the Golden-O Face Cream."I handed him the document on the table which had been for Theo’s eyes previously.Nibel accepted it with a smile. He then took a seat and read through it. "You

The push promotion, sample release, and customer feedback were all proceeding in an orderly manner.While I was checking the feedback cards in the office, Theo came in at some point and said, "I see you’re busy."He put his hands on the table and looked at me closely. Looking up to see him all of a sudden, I was startled. "Yes, but feedback is good. They’re saying that Golden-O feels good to use and are asking when it’ll hit the market.”"You’ve worked hard.” Theo was looking at me with a gaze like he was feeling sorry for me.I reached out to wrap my arms around his neck and planted a kiss on his thin lips. Grinning, I replied, "You’re still the one having the harder time.”Straightening his back, he fixed his suit and tie. "There’s a reception tonight. Come with me?""Okay. It feels like I haven’t accompanied you for a long time. Nicky was your companion the last time," I said casually as I sorted out the documents on the table."Yes. Your participation this time with rectify

The Prime Star Global Investment Conference was being held at Paradise Restaurant. When Theo and I arrived, quite a few people were already there.There was a very ostentatious display board on the door.We entered with me wrapped around Theo’s arm. Leaning into his ear, I whispered, "I heard Prime Star has always been high-profile. I’ll be learning a lot from this today. Thanks.”Not only the display board at the entrance, but the banners outside the building were also very ostentatious.Hearing this, Theo just smiled before whispering back, "This is something that everyone in the industry knows. Prime Star is powerful, though, so there’s nothing wrong with them showing it.”"I think you’re quite capable too, but aren't you being too low-key?" I asked with a smile while a gleam of light flashed through my eyes.Theo heard what I said and casually grabbed a glass of red wine before handing it to me. He then grabbed another glass for himself. "If Madam wants me to show off, I can

Looking up at him, I noted a limpid smile on his old face. I endured my discomfort. He was still the person in charge of Prime Star in this public space, so I would show him deference.Smiling slightly, I took a step back. "I really have something to do. My husband is also present, so please don't stop me, Mr. Waters.""You're married!" Walter sounded like he was in disbelief. His scrutinizing eyes began roaming all over me, and that disgusted me even more. “You don’t look like a married woman, Miss Lane, so don't lie to me. Those who take part in this investment conference want nothing more than to gain a partnership with Prime Star. You’re a smart person, Miss Lane. You know what to do. I’m willing to cooperate with you.”He approached me as he spoke, and I quickly stepped back.People were coming and going around us, but he seemed hardly worried. It seemed that Walter was a habitual offender. These people probably knew what kind of person he was, which would explain why none of

Even though he was smiling now, there was a sharpness to it when he was facing Walter previously. Now, it was only soft.Neil was an ever-changing man. His appearance just now reminded me of Theo.It was not a thought I should be having. The moment it appeared, I would start to accept him as the same.I looked at Neil. His features were somewhat similar to Theo's. I got distracted at that.I only came back to my senses when Neil stretched out his hand and shook it in front of me. "Wanda, are you in shock?""No, I'm fine. Thank you." I did not say what I was thinking just now. I just shook my head to express that I was fine.Hearing this, Neil breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. Walter has always been like this, so almost no young woman participates in this.”I realized this to be true when he said this. Even if there were women here, they all had male companions."I heard what the others were saying just now. But I heard the way you spoke to him just now. Wouldn’t that hav

I could vaguely sense that something was not right when I noticed Theo’s hastened footsteps. Come to think of it, things had been unusual ever since he met Neil for the first time. Although I suspected he was being jealous, his behavior was not the same as when he was jealous.When I turned to look back at where I was just now, I realized Neil had already walked away as well.I stopped and looked at Theo's back before calling out to him, "Theo."Theo’s steps halted as well when he heard me.I approached him and stood before him, stating, "He left.""Yes,” Theo replied apathetically as he looked at me calmly with one hand in his pocket.I lowered my eyes slightly and questioned in a soft voice, "Why?""Let's go back." Theo did not answer my question."Alright."He led me toward the exit as soon as I agreed to his suggestion.However, even after getting in the car, he did not start it for a long time."Why not let me drive this time?”Although Theo's expression appeared com
