The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1247

They were talking about the recent happenings in Whaldorf City. I had not been in Whaldorf City, so I did not know what had happened and could not contribute to the conversation. There was nothing else I could do apart from keeping quiet.

When we got to the place where more things were sold, the crowd grew bigger.

Cindy loved the bustling atmosphere and was in even higher spirits now. She stopped at every stall to buy things.

She would look at Theo when she wanted to buy something.

Theo was surprised at first but quickly got used to it and very naturally paid for her.

When Cindy was tired of walking, she sat down on the chair by the street

She looked up at Theo, smiling with extra joy. "Why don't you sit down and rest for a while too, Theowy?"

Theo nodded and pulled me to sit down.

Neither of us spoke. We merely listened to Cindy alone.

Halfway through the conversation, Cindy suddenly stood up from the chair and dragged Theo with her. "Wait here for a moment, Ms. Lane. Theowy and I will be back very soon."

As I watched their backs as they left, my chest felt even stuffier.

The phone in my pocket started vibrating. I took it out to take a look and saw an unfamiliar number from Whaldorf City.

I hesitated for a moment before picking it up.

"It's so noisy over there, Mommy. Are you outside having fun?"

Munchkin’s adorable voice entered my ear.

I remembered Munchkin said that he was going to call me every night.

Munchkin made me feel less awful. I leaned back in the chair and said with a smile, "I just had dinner, so I came out for a walk."

"You must be tired at work. Mommy. Go back soon and get some rest."

I pursed my lips, not knowing what to say.

"Wanda, your dad and I are getting older every year. We won't be able to live for much longer. Our only hope right now is that you children are okay, so I hope you won't beat yourself up too much."

I did not say anything because I did not know what I should say.

Munchkin wanted to talk to me, so he took the phone back from Petra's hands.

Later, he told me what he had done today and the interesting things that happened at school. I listened quietly, and my mood improved tremendously.

Munchkin had an extremely punctual biological clock. Hearing him yawn, I said with a smile, "It's getting late, Munchkin. Go to bed. We'll talk tomorrow, okay?”

"Okay." Munchkin was an obedient child." Mommy you should go back and get some sleep too. We'll talk tomorrow."

I smiled slightly. "Okay, good night, Munchkin."
