The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1404

I shook my head and changed the subject." Are you done talking?"

"We’re done." Theo walked up to me and put his arm around my shoulder. He asked softly, "There's a celebration dinner tonight. Come with me."

After the incident where Dazaray drugged and took me away, he was itching to keep me by his side 24/7.

I did not want him to worry about me, and because I would be bored at home alone either way, I agreed.

Looking in the direction where the girl had left, I felt bad inside.

Just like how one could tell at a glance if someone had had plastic surgery before, when this girl and I exchanged glances for the first time, we could both tell that our hearts were gloomy and dark.

Depression would not completely go away. It would only be hidden over the years, making it impossible for anyone to detect.

We tried our best to look for sunshine in our everyday lives, and then little by little, we covered up the depression in our hearts to make ourselves seem normal.

The girl was right. I was lucky to meet Theo. He could easily heal and warm me up.

Not everyone was as lucky as I was.

Although I had no idea what the girl had gone through, the emotions that were suppressed in her eyes told me that she was still struggling in the dark.

Hotel.

A celebration dinner was actually just two heads of the companies sitting down together and getting to know each other.

Stephan, who was following behind him, looked at me.

He narrowed his eyes, then raised his glass to give me a toast with a smile. "I can't believe we meet again, Ms. Lane. This must be fate."

After hearing what he said, William grew interested and turned slightly to the side to ask him with a smile, "Do you know Ms. Lane?"

"Not only do we know each other, but Ms. Lane and I are also considered sworn friends. I thought we'd never meet again. This sure is destiny."

When the words 'sworn friends' came out of Stephan's mouth, they just sounded so sarcastic in a way.

I could not bring myself to smile at a devil, nor did I want to talk to him. Hence, I hid behind Theo.
