The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2520

I cried out in surprise. Was he talking about the Grants that I was thinking of?

Seeing my surprise, Neil asked, “What’s wrong? Why are you so agitated hearing about the Grants?”

“You weren’t clear about it. Which family are you talking about?” I grabbed his clothes and asked.

Neil glanced down at my grip on his clothes before calmly replying, “You probably don’t know the Grant family member from back then, but you should be who Theo Grant is, yes? It’s his father.”

Why would I not know him…

My hand that was gripping his clothes slumped. I lowered my head and frowned. How could this have anything to do with the Grants?

The more I thought about it, the more it felt like something was off. “But the Grants had been developing in Salt City before this. Theo Grant only just moved to Whaldorf City a few years ago. How could the Grants have married into the Yard family?

“The Grants’ ancestors first started their business in Whaldorf City before moving to Salt City.”

Neil’s words made my heart skip a beat. If this was true, then the Grants were an accomplice to my mother’s death.

My features were scrunched tightly. I did not know what to say.

“Why did you freeze again?” Neil reached his hand out and shook it in front of me.

Coming back to my senses, I quickly shook my head. “It’s nothing. I’m just a little surprised. I didn't expect two major families to be involved.”

Neil smiled at me with understanding. “I get it. I was also surprised when I found out about this. The one who deserves the most sympathy is Miss Yard. She was a victim to both families’ interests.”

That was an apt way to put it. It also woke me up.

Meeting his bright eyes, I asked, “How do you know all of this? This information has been suppressed for so many years. Where did you hear this from?”

It had not been easy trying to find out about it back then either. Hence, it was suspicious that Neil knew all of this.

I nodded. Even my voice was soft as I replied, “Yeah. It’s too heartbreaking. She never got to see her children grow up and was forced to separate from them. She must have been in so much pain.”

“Are you thinking about your children as well?”

“Yes. I miss them a lot.”

“You should get everything settled quickly and bring them back. You’ll feel more at ease with them by your side.” Neil’s voice was very soft. “Just let me know if you need any help.”

I looked at him. “Thank you, I will.”

As Neil said, I should look for help since my own power was not enough to go up against them.

“I really have to thank you. I think I know what I should do now.”
