The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2212

I left Theo’s room after fixing up my clothes. I went over to Shannon’s and knocked on the door.

Seeing that it was me after opening the door, Shannon gave me a wicked smile. "Yo, why are you here?"

I let out a few coughs and walked in. "Of course, to prove that I'm not a person who values romantic partners over friends."

"Hey, hey, hey, your lipstick is all gone after just one trip? Seems that President Grant is quite fierce."

Shannon was really not ashamed to say anything, while I was a little embarrassed. I changed the subject, "Okay, let's pack up. Filming starts tomorrow, so we can go out for a walk tonight."

"Yeah, I was checking just now and found that there’s an ancient street in Jarlston with some activities going on tonight. We can join in the fun. Would you like to invite your husband?"

"Having my friend is enough. Why do you need him?!" I blinked at Shannon and then started unpacking.

The day slowly got dark.

Shannon and I grabbed a ride to the ancient street.

Sure enough, there were a lot of activities. We saw many people coming and going. A lot of them were also wearing traditional costumes, which were quite novel.

Shannon and I went in and tried a lot of snacks, all of which were delicious. We ate till we were full.

"I didn’t think there would be a place like this in a big city like Jarlston. I don't think we have anything like this in Whaldorf City."

There were tall buildings everywhere in Whaldorf City but never had we heard of an ancient street like this.

"Yeah, we can travel about more when we’re free and relaxed, or else we’ll be overwhelmed by work." Everything looked fresh to Shannon, and she had many small gifts in her previously empty hands.

"Wanda, I'm going to the bathroom. Wait for me."

“Alright."

"Yes, I couldn’t be wrong," I muttered to myself.

Shannon stared at me blankly before pushing me. "What's wrong, Wanda? Wanda!"

Surprised by her voice, I raised my eyes to look at Shannon. "Shannon, I think I saw Cecilia just now."

"Cecilia? You mean your former best friend?" Shannon looked terrified. She then shook her head and said, "How is that possible? Didn't you say Cecilia has passed away? How could she appear here? Are you sure you’re not mistaken?"

"No, I really saw her. Right here, I saw her walk past. I wanted to catch up to her, but there were suddenly a lot of people and she disappeared."

Shannon looked at my urgent expression. She grabbed my shoulders and said solemnly, "Wanda! You must have made a mistake. Cecilia is gone. It’s impossible that she’d show up here. I think you were dazed for a moment, and your eyes played tricks on you."

"Is that so..." I lowered my gaze and whispered to myself.

"Yeah, you must be tired. Let's go back."
