The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2001

I lingered in the room with my back against the door. The scene just now seemed like a dream, but it was real.

The hostility that had emanated from him at that time was terrifying.

I could not forget that scene. I slowly moved to the bedside and sat down. I touched my heart, and it was still beating wildly.

It was fear, not heartbreak.

There was a pressure emanating from Drover’s body just now that made it hard to breathe. I felt suffocated at that moment.

It was terrifying.

I gripped the sheets tightly with my hands, crumpling them. I ignored it and just focused on sorting out my emotions.

Time passed without me knowing, and the bright room suddenly darkened.

I looked out the window. It was dark now.

When I got up, the lights in the room turned on. It was a special device that Drover had installed. If it was already dark out and the lights were not on despite there being people in the room, as long as they moved about in the room, the sensor switch would be triggered and the lights would automatically light up.

It was bright all of a sudden, and my eyes were a little bit unaccustomed to it. I covered my eyes, and it took me a while before I could put my hand down.

Marius should be back at this time.

There was a knock on the door at this moment. I was worried that it was Drover and did not open the door to avoid the awkwardness. However, the person outside said, "Sis Wan, it’s time to come down for dinner."

"I’m coming."

It turned out to be Marius. He had finally returned. The atmosphere should be better with him around.

I opened the door and followed him downstairs.

Drover was already seated in the dining room and was waiting for the two of us.

While we were eating, Marius was a chatterbox as always, while Drover and I were uncharacteristically quiet. We did not really talk much.

Marius immediately sensed that something was off. He raised his eyes to look at me and then looked at Drover before asking curiously, "What's the matter? You guys seem off. Did you two get into an argument?"

It was a pretty good solution.

"Okay, let's do that."

Marius rolled his eyes. "Did he scold you?"

I shook my head, indicating no.

"Did you scold him?"

I did not think so, so I shook my head again.

Marius cradle his cheek. "Did he bully you?"

Did that count…? I nodded, then shook my head. "I don't know if that counts."

"Wait, what? Did he really bully you?" Marius looked surprised.
