The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2023

On this day, I received a call from the school saying that Munchkin had disappeared. I hurried over. "It was Nimue's turn to be on duty today, but he came out of the principal's office crying, wanting to look for his father. We managed to persuade him to go back to the classroom, but he went missing after lunch break. We can’t find him anywhere in school," they told me anxiously.

The principal's office?

We were in the principal's office. I glanced at the newspaper on the table. Theo and Nicky’s news happened to be on the cover.

Munchkin must have seen this.

I could not hide it anymore.

Sighing deep down, I looked at the head teacher. "I know where he went."

I drove to Grant Corporation. Munchkin should be here.

After driving the car into the basement, I went to the front desk.

An employee card was needed to access the elevator. I was no longer an employee of Grant Corporation, so, naturally, I could not go upstairs.

"Mada... Wanda, why are you here?" The front desk receptionist almost called me by the wrong address.

I did not mind it. I just smiled and said, "Did a child come over just now?"

"Ah yes, he said he was looking for President Grant. The president came downstairs to pick him up."

"That's good. Help me connect to him. I'm looking for him."

"Alright."

I stood at the front desk and waited for her to be done with the call. She put down the phone after a while. "Miss Wanda, President Grant asked you to head up."

Without offering any refusal, I went straight to the elevator, and she helped me push the button for the floor. "Thank you."

Standing in front of the office, I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. I pushed open the door after hearing the familiar voice saying ‘come in’.

I was greeted by Munchkin's young face the moment I went in.

Nicky was about to wave her hand at him, but Theo stopped her. "Take no offense to a child’s babble. Why are you trying to pick a fuss with a child?"

"Theo, how are you so tolerant of this child? You must’ve been misled.” Nicky frowned, her entire face scrunching up.

I pulled Munchkin over. "Munchkin, let's go first. We shouldn’t stay here for long.”

Munchkin looked at the two of them and then nodded to me. "I think so too. Let's go, Mommy."

"Alright then," I called out to the two of them. "You two can take your time and talk. We’re leaving first."

I was about to leave with Munchkin but Nicky stopped us. "You’re going to just leave after causing trouble?"

I pursed my lips. Blinking my eyes, I looked back at her. "Then what do you want?"

She looked at us and smiled softly...
