The Woman From Hell Chapter 87
After all these years, Theo had spoiled Cindy into a princess who lived a noble and proud life. At this moment, however, she completely abandoned her dignity, image, and limits… That made her look somewhat pitiful.Love could make a person humble.I sighed. I was the same in the past.“You’re awake?” There was suddenly the sound of a door opening behind me.Startled, I turned around. Mason was clad in all-black attire, standing at the study while smiling at me.“Shh, keep it down.” I quickly ran over. “What are you doing here?” I was thinking of going to the hospital to meet him.“Theo said he wanted to stay at home to take care of you, so he asked us to come over for a meeting.” He shrugged.“I happened to be looking for you. Let’s talk inside.” Afraid that Mason would find out that I was eavesdropping, I quickly entered the study first.“What’s up?” His tone was bland, his expression as usual.“I need you to treat me.” I sat on the sofa in the study, deliberating how to star

“You—” Cindy’s face was flushed. She stretched out her trembling fingers and pointed at me but was unable to say a word for a very long time.Theo looked at me with eyes darkened and a displeased expression, but he did not say anything.I ignored him and continued, “If you can’t live without my husband, Miss Cindy, then I don’t mind if you waste your youth on him either. Maybe I might grow bored one day and choose to get a divorce.”My expression changed as I raised my voice, “But before that, can you please be a qualified mistress, Ms. Cindy? I don’t care what you do out there but can you stop coming to my house and disturbing our peace?”As soon as I said those words, three voices called out my name at the same time.“Wanda!” Theo gritted his teeth.“Wanda!” Cindy was in a thundering fury.“Wanda!” Zedd was bursting with rage.Mason, however, remained calm as always and stood on one side looking at me with a faint smile.I darted a glance at Theo and retracted my gaze. I cou

Upon reminding them, the young ladies checked their watches in a panic before grabbing their hotdogs and darting across the road.I watched them run. They were so full of youth that I could not help but sigh. It was nice to be young. My heavy mood was suddenly lifted.This was how the world was. No one was satisfied with their current situation and would constantly complain about life while envying others. One would not know that what one hated was precisely what others yearned for.Upon returning to the office, Heidi reported to me the progress of the advertisement shooting.The new product this time around was a diamond ring, so the director wrote a script about the male and female leads falling in love after a chance encounter on a trip to the beach. They later experienced separation, and the ending was of the male lead bringing a diamond ring to the city where the female lead was for a romantic proposal.Although this short commercial had a cheesy plot, the male lead was the g

Soon, the car came to a stop and I looked up. Sure enough, he actually brought me to the most expensive French restaurant in Salt City.However, it was a little awkward because everyone knew this was a popular dating place for couples.“You asked for the most expensive and this is the most expensive place in Salt City.” Seeing how hesitant I was, Xander put on a helpless look. However, I had a feeling that he was over the moon because the joy in his alluring eyes was overflowing.It was just a meal, and since I was already here, I did not hesitate further and took the lead to walk inside.However, Xander’s series of unexpected moves after that quickly made me regret my decision. He had not only asked for a couple table and ordered a couple set meal but also ordered a bottle of red wine that was worth a lot of money.Looking at the rose, candles, and red wine in front of me, this very romantic candlelight dinner would be the perfect dinner arrangement for actual couples.However,

On the street outside the window, Petra was holding Cindy. The two were talking and laughing as they walked toward the mall from across the street.I wondered how the two of them met each other. Seeing how close they were, I thought they looked just like mother and daughter. However, when I mentioned Xander’s mother previously, Cindy looked as though she did not know anything.However, I was never a nosy person, so I ignored these things and got ready to go home after seeing that it was getting late.“Let’s go?” I asked Xander.He could barely hold himself up, and after beckoning the waiter to pay the bill, he staggered to his feet. He looked like he was about to fall. I hurriedly went over to hold him and asked worriedly, “Can you still walk?”“I’m okay.” He waved and staggered outside. With how much his body was swaying, it was dangerous to leave him be. I had no choice but to step forward and support him with my body as we walked forward.We walked with much difficulty and I w

In a daze, I simply stopped struggling and forced myself to sleep.The next day when I woke up, it was already sunrise and Miss Woods reheated my cold breakfast for me.I looked around me but did not see Theo.“Mr. Grant went to the company early this morning and told me not to wake you up. He wanted you to sleep more. You would want to sleep more when you’re pregnant. When I was pregnant, I would sleep for 15 hours a day and still thought it was not enough…”Miss Woods started yammering about her previous pregnancy. They said that a person loved to nag when they grew older and loved talking about their younger days. Time was unforgiving. Miss Woods was slowly growing old too.After having breakfast, I went to the company. Heidi told me that the director had confirmed that everyone would be leaving tomorrow, which meant that I would have to go on a business trip tomorrow.“Should I come with you, Ms. Wanda?” Heidi asked, looking at me.“It’s fine. Stay here and prepare the first

“I just wanted to tell you that we should probably get ready to leave for the flight at five o’clock.” Xander sounded somewhat wronged.“Five o’clock?” Heidi had told me that we were going on the trip today but I forgot to ask her the specific time.I quickly got up. It would take half an hour to get to the airport from here. I might be late if I did not hurry.“You should go and wash up first. I’ll come and pick you up.” Xander immediately hung up the phone after saying those words as though he was afraid of being scolded by me again.My head was dizzy and I felt very uncomfortable. However, I still forced myself to get out of bed and wash up.I finished packing in no time and went out. Xander was already waiting outside the door.We drove all the way to the airport. Thankfully, we were not late. However, as I did not have enough sleep, I felt extremely uncomfortable and dry-heaved for a long time before I finally felt a little better.“Where are the rest?” When we were about t

A person’s success would not be accidental. Take Xander, for example. In the eyes of the media, he was an uninhibited man, which gave others the impression that he was careless and had a lack of purpose in life. No one knew that behind closed doors, he was actually a hardworking and considerate man.I did not speak more and took the initiative to sit at the farthest end of the sofa. Scripts were supposed to be kept confidential, so I avoided looking at them.Xander stood up and stretched himself before lying on the couch in exhaustion.“Why don’t you go and have some rest first? I’ll call you when the director is here.” I could not bear seeing him like this.“It’s okay. I’ll just take a nap. My friends are treating us to dinner tonight. Let’s go and cadge a good meal,” he said with his eyes closed.“What if the director and crew arrive?” Xander had mentioned that they were taking the flight at night so they must be arriving any time soon.“They have things to do today so they’ll
