The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1841

At night, I lay in bed as I listened to Theo talk on the phone from the balcony.

I had to admit that his foreign pronunciation was very comfortable to listen to.

However, seeing the tight frown on his brows made my heart clench. Although I could understand the language, I could only hear the words intermittently. It merely left me feeling confused. When I saw the frown on Theo’s face grow deeper, I grew even more worried.

Could it be that something went wrong with the previous oversea project?

After a while, Theo walked in from outside and saw me staring at him with a big pair of eyes. He could not help but chuckle and asked, "Have you been staring at me the whole time?"

I nodded slowly, then got up and looked at him with my legs crossed on the bed “I noticed the look on your face earlier. Did something happen to the foreign project?"

Theo shook his head. 'They want to change some details, but I rejected them.”

"It's against the rules to change the details of the contract at the last minute," I said without hesitation.

"Yes. So we won't agree to it. Rest assured, we’ve signed the agreement from an earlier time, so if they breach the contract, they'll have to pay a large amount of compensation," Theo saw my concern and explained to me with a smile.

His gentle and confident smile allowed me to let go of the slight worry in my heart.'

Mm. That's good, then.”

Theo lay down as well. He stretched his arms around me and put his chin on my head. "By the way, I called to ask Jenny earlier, and she said that with the extent of Director Doyle’s wound, the scar isn't permanent. It just needs time, so don’t worry too much about it."

It was just a matter of time.

I heaved out a sigh of relief. "That’s good. If the scar on Nicky's face doesn't go away, I'll feel guilty about it for the rest of my life."

For a moment, I felt an unspeakable sadness in my heart.

"What’s the matter, Wanda?" Nicky asked softly.

I came back to my senses and waved at her. "It's nothing. Yesterday, Theo gave Dr. Jenny a call. She said that the scar on your face isn't permanent. It's merely a matter of time, and you just need to cooperate well with the treatment. You don't have to worry about it."

Hearing my words, Nicky seemed to smile in an unconcerned manner. "It's alright. I won't take this matter to heart. On the contrary, Wanda, you seem to be more worried about this than I am. You shouldn’t be. Even if this scar stays on my face forever, I wouldn’t mind it." 'No, no! Don’t say such a thing. If this scar

is forever on your face, then I'll be uneasy for the rest of my life." I looked at her with a solemn look on my face.

Nicky looked at me with a profound gaze. After a long while, she had a slight smile on her face as she patted me on the shoulder. "The doctor said that it’ll get better, so it'll surely get better.” After saying this, she walked past me and went to the table to sit down.

Looking at the smile on the corner of her mouth, I admired Nicky's transparency. From the looks of it, I could not sense even a bit of sadness from Nicky. I wondered if she was deliberately pretending to not be upset or if she truly did not care...
