The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1926

Before Marius could finish what he was saying, Drover pulled him away. He did not forget, however, to turn around and tell me, "Get some rest." Then, he disappeared into the corridor.

I smiled as I closed the door and looked around at the pink decor. Drover must still be thinking about this person. He kept the room like this because he was still waiting for her to come back.

I gently brushed my hand over the dressing table. It was spotless. It was probably cleaned every day.

I sat down. Looking at my reflection in the mirror, my complexion looked poor.

It had been quite some time since I left home, but Theo did not come looking for me. With his power, he should be able to locate me quickly even if I did not bring my phone with me, but until now, there was no news.

I lowered my gaze, some traces of sadness floating in my heart.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. I regained my senses and opened the door.

Drover was standing at the door with a faint smile on the corners of his lips. "Miss Lane, I came to tell you that there are clothes in the closet. You can change into them."

"Alright, thank you. You can just call me Wanda," I replied.

Hearing this, his expression changed slightly. A look of joy flashed across his calm, handsome face, and there was a smile in his eyes. "Alright, if you don't mind, you can also call me Drover."

I was stunned but accepted. "Got it."

"Then... good night, Wanda."

I was unsure if I was mistaken, but his voice was particularly soft and pleasant when he called my name. It was as if he was cradling a gem, afraid of dropping and breaking it.

Without thinking too much, I nodded to him. "Good night."

After he left, I closed the room door.

I went to the closet based on what Drover said. The closet was also pink, and there was a line of small characters engraved on it. I did not take a closer look, however. I just opened the closet.

There were several sets of women’s clothing on display in the closet, as well as several sets of pajamas.

They all looked brand new like no one had ever worn them.

Seeing the pajamas I was wearing, Marius' eyes lit up. "You actually chose this one."

"What’s wrong?" I did not understand what his comment meant.

He raised a brow and smiled before answering a little mysteriously, "It's nothing. Let's go to the rooftop."

Marius led me upstairs. There was a door from the second floor to the rooftop, but for convenience's sake, Drover did not close it.

The moment I went up, I saw Drover was grilling some meat.

"Come on, hurry up..." Drover looked up, and when his eyes landed on me, he paused suddenly as if dumbfounded.

Marius was standing to the side, smiling deeply.

I stood there with a confused expression before looking down at myself. I did not think I had worn my clothes inside out, so what was with his reaction?

"Mr. Drover, what's wrong?"
