The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2046

Grant Corporation was now as busy as it used to be. Although the incident with Drover caused plenty of uproars, it could be said that the loss had been minimized thanks to Theo's efforts to turn the tide.

With one project after another, I gradually became busy. I worked on one order after another and was swamped and exhausted.

I would forget that I was still pregnant while working, even forgetting the discomfort I felt. Every time I stopped, however, the discomfort would come back again.

Theo would get Keith to come to check in on me from time to time and ask about my situation. His concern empowered me.

I went out to visit a client for a project and met an acquaintance on the way back. He was the one to stop me. "Sis Wan."

This familiar tone stunned me for a moment. I turned to look at the person; it really was him.

The smile on Marius's face was like the sunshine of bygone days. He dazzled under the bright lights.

"Sis Wan, long time no see."

"Long time no see."

It had not been that long of a time. Things had just changed.

We found a tea shop and sat down to chat. Marius looked at me with a faint smile on the corners of his lips. "You must have been very busy during this time, Sis Wan. You’ve lost weight."

It felt like I could feel my bones when I touched my face. I laughed. "I think I’ve gotten thinner but it's not just because I was too busy. My morning sickness has been rather intense recently, so I don't like to eat. Of course, I’d lose weight."

Marius poured me a cup of tea, his tone a little heavy. "It’s not good for you to go on like this. People usually put on weight when they are pregnant. Instead, you got thinner. That's not good."

Marius's words surprised me. I was stunned. I then shook my head and said, "There's nothing to be thankful for."

"What Drover did really crossed the line. If Theo really wanted to press charges, he would probably be in the police station now, not the office. So in any case, I still have to thank him for his magnanimity." Sincerity permeated Marius's words.

"Alright, whatever you say." I did not refute him anymore.

After chatting with Marius for a while, I had to prepare to go back to the office. "Let's meet up again next time when we're free."

"Okay, Sis Wan, be careful on the road." Marius waved at me.

I nodded at him slightly before turning around to leave, completely unaware of the eyes that followed...
