The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1369

Theo's body was already stiff and cool like ice. He was also unconscious.

"Wake up, Theo. I'm here to take you out of here. Please be okay." While sobbing, I removed my jacket and draped it around his body. I then hugged him tightly to warm him with the warmth of my body.

However, my body temperature was far from enough for him. I helped him up, but an unconscious person was simply too heavy. I could not lift him up at all.

I saw a rope next to me and tied us together. I shuffled out of the freezer room with much difficulty while speaking into the earpiece, "I found the freezer, Mr. Cook. I'm not sure how long Theo was in there, but his body is already stiff and he's also unconscious.

Just as I was about to reach the door of the freezer, it suddenly shut. What followed immediately after that was a sharp drop in temperature.

A bone-chilling coldness invaded my body, freezing it instantly.

I frantically shouted into the earpiece but the signal seemed to be cut off as I could not hear a sound from the other end.

Theo's body was stiffening even more. I put him down and hugged him tightly, wailing, "Can you please wake up, Theo? Please, I beg you. Open your eyes to look at me. We'll be saved."

Were we going to die here on this day?

No way!

I was in great despair. Even though I knew that I should be preserving my energy right now, I still could not stop myself from wailing.

No matter how I screamed, Theo still did not wake up. I was starting to lose hope.

My tears fell on the ground, freezing into ice in no time at all. Even the air I breathed out turned into white mist. I was about to turn stiff from the freezing, and my limbs were starting to lose their function.

Theo was in an even more severe condition than me. I could barely feel his breathing.

I kept rubbing his hand and talking to him, praying that he would wake up.

If Solomon did not know that we were in danger and continued to wait for us outside, were we going to die here?

I had mixed feelings. Although I had already guessed and was mentally prepared that Jordan was the mastermind of this whole incident, I still found it hard to accept it when he appeared before my eyes.

Why was he such a cruel person?

Why was he doing this to us?

"I've been carrying the contract with me, just waiting for you to sign it," he said with a smile. It was a smug one no matter how I looked at it.

I took a deep breath and asked in a trembling voice, "Why are you doing this?”

Jordan looked at me with a smirk, still as gentlemanly as ever. "I must thank you, Wanda. Otherwise, Mr. Grant would never have agreed to put down his signature on this contract even if it meant freezing to death."

He took the contract handed over by his men, walked up to us, and looked at Theo while saying, "You really do love Wanda, Mr. Grant. You refused to compromise even after staying hours in the freezer, but you compromised as soon as Wanda came.

Your deep affection has moved me."
