The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2473

I was stunned when Marius asked this and recalled the recording that Delia let me listen to.

“It’s nothing. I just got distracted 'cause I was thinking of something just now.”

I forced a smile, wanting to muddle through this.

Alas, Marius was not a fool and could tell I was hiding something from him.

“What happened?”

I did not really feel like talking about it, but Marius kept pestering me about it. In the end, I finally told him what happened earlier in the day.

Things did not go as I expected. Marius was furious after he heard this. He immediately wanted to get things straight with Theo, but I stopped him. “Forget it, it’s better this way anyway. Theo and I are about to officially get divorced. We won’t cross paths anymore in the future, so it’s fine.”

I thought about the little things I shared with Theo before as I said this. Now, I just found those beautiful memories laughable.

Marius looked at me with a frown.

After a while, he said, “Sis Wan, I reserved a place at Julienne Hotel tomorrow night. Let me take you there so that you can relax and watch the night scene. What do you think?”

I did not overthink it and immediately agreed. “Alright. Let’s go, then. It just so happens that I haven’t gone out for dinner in a long time. I even cut my hand today.”

Marius could not hide the joy on his face at my answer, and a smile appeared on the corners of his lips. “That’s great. Let’s order some takeaway for tonight. You can relax when I take you out tomorrow,” he said to me.

“Alright.” I nodded.

The next evening.

I put on some casual clothes and went directly to Julienne Hotel. Marius arrived long before I did.

“While I am about to divorce Theo, I'm still married, after all. You should get up first.”

Marius did not look disappointed or sad when he heard my reply. It was obvious that he had already expected my answer. Hence, he had mentally prepared himself.

“I understand. Sis Wan… let’s have dinner, then. I’ve reserved the entire space. No one else will disturb our dinner today.”

Hearing him address me like how he used to, it seemed like he did not plan to force me on this.

After that, Marius held my hand and led me up the stairs.

I was already somewhat out of my wits by now and did not even think of taking my hand out of Marius. I just followed him upstairs like this like a puppet.

Marius pulled out a chair for me and then sat down facing me.
