The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2035

Drover really did not let me out the door the entire week. My meals were delivered to my room every day. This dreamy house was suddenly a prison.

I was so bored being here every day, right until this day.

"Sis Wan."

Hearing Marius' voice, I quickly got up and ran to the door. "Marius, can you let me out? I'm almost dying from suffocation."

"I got it, I got it. I'll open the door now."

After he said that, I heard a rustling from outside the door, and the door opened.

"I'm finally out. Is Drover here?" I glanced around.

Marius shook his head and said to me, "Have you forgotten? Today is the day of the shareholders' meeting. He already left."

It was exactly what I thought.

I stared at the man in front of me and said sternly, "You got into a fight with him that day because of this."

I was not guessing this time but affirming.

He nodded with a look of helplessness on his face. "Yes, I didn’t want him to do this, but I couldn’t stop him."

"Let's go. Let's go to the shareholders' meeting together."

"What can you do there?"

My words shocked Marius. It was obvious that he was surprised that I had found out.

I smiled lightly and continued, "Drover and Nicky have known each other for a long time. I could tell from their interactions. Nicky has been constantly revealing to me her admiration for Drover. That’s why she was looking forward to Drover Night. But that day, at the meeting, I noticed that the look in her eyes when she looked at Drover wasn’t like she was meeting someone new. Nor was she worshipping an idol. Instead, it felt like she hadn't seen him for a long time. I paid it no heed then, but Drover came looking for me after that and exchanged glances with Nicky. I decided then that they really knew each other."

"You’re very attentive. We’ve indeed been on familiar terms with Nicky for a long time." Marius used 'we’. So, he also knew Nicky.

I sighed. "So, you've been acting all this while."

"Sis Wan, I might have known Nicky for a long time, but we're not acquainted. I didn't even know that she liked Theo. I really was pissed when I accompanied you to look for her that day. I was really speaking up for you."

Marius tried his best to explain himself for fear that I would not believe him. The truth was that I did not really know if I should believe him or not.

"You know I argued with Drover because of this. I persuaded him not to go against Theo. Otherwise, he’d disappoint you. But he has already made up his mind."
