The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2459

Theo’s light gaze landed on me, but he did not say anything.

Sometimes, silence suffocated even more.

Especially those ethereal and emotionless eyes.

I reached out and pulled Shannon back. “Forget it, let's go.”

I would not have made this appointment if I had known that this would happen. I felt even more uncomfortable now. I just wanted to escape here as soon as possible now.

Shannon shook my hand away. Her pretty eyebrows furrowed as she looked at Theo with anger in her eyes. “I thought you weren’t able to talk about things since it was difficult to do so in the house. That’s why I asked Wanda to ask you out. Who would have thought you’re someone who just shifts their affection? Wanda wasted so many years of her youth on you. Don't you feel guilty, you bastard?!

“Just what did Delia do to make you, the all-mighty Theo, be convinced to willingly get together with her?”

My heart became even more bitter as I listened to Shannon's reprimands one after another.

I went forward and pulled Shannon back, motioning her to stop talking. She was cursing him out heartily, but it also hurt my heart.

Sniffling, I said, “Shannon, let's go. Leave him.”

Only then did Shannon turn to look at me. Anger still on her face, she glared at Theo who was at the side. “Alright. Let us leave quickly, lest President Grant grows annoyed with us.”

She grabbed my hand and walked us outside. I looked back at Theo. There was still no expression on his face. It was as if he did not hear what Shannon said just now. He was surprisingly calm.

The moment we reached outside, I caught him looking at me. His eyes were complex, and I could not understand them.

Out on the bustling street, the wind billowed. My heart also froze over with it.

There was still some anger on Shannon’s spirited face. She ranted as she walked, “It pisses me off. Theo must really be blind to like that devious woman called Delia!”

Speaking until this point, Shannon suddenly stopped and turned to me. “I’m sorry. I wasn’t talking about her looks. I meant she—”

“I understand.”

Leaning on her shoulder, my tears instantly fell. I bit my lip, trying not to make a sound.

I finally came back to my senses after some time.

Seeing the wet patch on Shannon’s clothes I lowered my head. “I’m sorry. I—”

“What are you even saying? It’s supposed to be like this between friends. So, where are you headed now? Why don’t you come and stay at my place? We have a lot of rooms,” Shannon suggested.

“Your palace isn’t convenient. I”m going to go to Marius’. We already discussed this prior.”

I did not want to hurt my family, nor did I want to hurt Shannon.

Marius was different, though.

“That’s fine too. I’ll go visit you when I have the time.”
