The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2735

I was inexplicably nervous entering Yard Mansion.

The housekeeper took me to the living room. She opened the door and let me in. "Miss Lane, please come in."

"Thank you."

I caught a sweet perfume scent that only women wore when I entered.

Was there someone else here?

I looked toward the sofa and saw a beautiful woman sitting there looking at me. Her red lips were pulled into a bright smile. "Sylvester, Miss Lane is here."

She knew me.

Sylvester turned around. "President Lane, you're here."

I went up to them, my gaze falling on the woman. "This is..."

"Hello, my name is Rooney Taylor," she introduced herself.

"My girlfriend," Sylvester immediately added.

I had never heard about Sylvester having a girlfriend before so I gave her a nod. "Hello, I'm Wanda Lane."

"I know. Sylvester mentioned you, you're his sister," Rooney said without hesitation.

I was stunned. So, that was how Sylvester had been introducing me. There was a special feeling in my heart.

Sylvester glared at Rooney, seemingly displeased with what she had just said before then turning to me. "Show me the project proposal."

"Okay."

I handed over the project book. Sylvester still looked very serious. "I see this is why you're inconvenienced. I didn't expect you to have a girlfriend, President Yard. I was quite surprised."

Rooney smiled sweetly. "President Yard isn't too fond of me. He won't allow us to be together to protect me. He told Chairman Yard that we broke up but since he's abroad now, I came back."

Rooney stood up and then led me to the garden as she spoke, "You should actually be more familiar with this place than me, right? President Lane."

"I've been here a few times, but I haven't been able to look around more closely," I answered truthfully.

"You're his sister but you don't come back. Is it because of Chairman Yard?" I was momentarily left speechless when she asked this. Did Sylvester tell her everything?

"Uh, yes. I can't really accept Silas."

Rooney nodded emphatically. "Hm, yes. He indeed makes it difficult for people to accept him."

I could see people moving about upstairs from where I was. They were frequently moving in and out of one room.

I pointed to the figure upstairs. "Are they moving stuff?"

"Oh, that's Chairman Yard's room. Sylvester is having it and the study tidied up," Rooney said quietly.

Silas seemed to have mentioned that he would not be coming back after he goes abroad but his room ought to be left untouched, no? Did Sylvester hate him that much?
