The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1287

Matthew frowned, looking extremely unhappy. I did not know nor did I want to know why he was unhappy.

I had said what I needed to say. What was left now was for him to reflect on it himself.

I walked around the first-floor lobby before finding Liz and Laney.

Laney was holding the baby as Liz gobbled up the food as though they were merely things to fill up her tummy regardless of how it tasted like.

She had probably eaten too little in the morning and was starving by now.

She saw me out of the corners of her eyes and stopped eating.

Maybe she felt a little awkward, she raised

her hand and wiped her mouth haphazardly with her sleeve. She then gave me a slightly stiff smile.

Her hair was even messier than before, making her look much more haggard now. It was as though every pain that Matthew inflicted on her was sapping her vitality.

I walked over and sat on the chair, waiting for her to finish her food in silence.

Eventually, Liz spoke first. She looked at me and said somewhat bitterly, "With the state that I'm currently in, you probably look down on me very much, don't you? If you want to laugh at me, then go ahead. I've gotten used to being laughed at these days."

I pursed my lips, not wanting to reply to that. I said something else, "It's not like Matthew doesn’t have any money. You can hire a few nannies to take care of you and the baby to make it a lot easier for yourself.”

As the boss of a listed company, Matthew could easily let his wife and son live a life

without worrying about food and clothes.

People who lived at the bottom were tired from making a living that oftentimes, they did not even care about decency.
