The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1893

Hattie insisted on seeing Theo. Her expression was one of looking for trouble as she looked at me.

"Mom, don't trouble others like that!" Nicky was really anxious. She pulled at Hattie impatiently.

I had never seen her like this.

"Nicky, don't say anything if you don't understand the situation. I'm thinking of you and paving a way for your future. No matter what this Theo looks like, he's still a man. You saved his son, so he has to be responsible!" Hattie stated her words clearly. She seemed adamant about it.

Hattie turned her attention to me again. " Go and call your husband down!"

Before I could speak, I heard familiar footsteps behind me.

It was Theo.

He and Keith arrived one after the other, their auras quite prominent.

He put his hands in his pockets and came forward to Hattie. He shielded me behind him and then glanced at Nicky first before looking at Hattie. "Are you Nicky's mother?"

His innate, majestic demeanor was no child's play. Hattie's own imposing aura was suppressed all of a sudden. She forced herself to look at Theo and puffed up her chest. "Y-Yes. You’re Theo Grant, Wanda Lane's husband, yes?"

"That's me."

Hattie pulled the photographer. "You came just at the right time. Are you going to be responsible for my Nicky?"

The camera was facing Theo. He hated this the most. He turned his face away with impatience on his face. "It's such a small injury, yet you want me to take care of her for the rest of her life?"

The question he asked back dropped the surrounding temperature to freezing point.

"I don’t know if her scar will heal, but for the sake of my daughter’s happiness for the rest of her life, you have to treat her well at least before it heals,” Hattie said.

Theo smiled and looked back at me, "Mrs. James, I'm married. I don’t think it'll be appropriate for me to treat your daughter well."

"I don't care. Anyway, before her wound heals, you must be responsible for my daughter. If her scar doesn’t heal in her lifetime, I want you to bear this responsibility for the rest of her life!" Hattie was very good at making demands.

I bowed my head. I could not tell what I was feeling inside.

"I can only promise you that I’ll allow her to stay in the villa. And I'll continue to look for people to treat her," Theo replied softly and slowly.

Hattie waved her hand. "You must not only bring her into the villa but also take good care of her. Otherwise, I'll give you hell every other day."
