The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2737

I was just a step away from my mother’s room. I reached my hand out toward the doorknob before lightly turning it open.

No, I could not go in now.

This was not the best time.

I pulled back my hand and turned to leave.

When I came back to the room, Rooney had just come out of the bathroom.

“I’m sorry to keep you waiting. My tummy was a little unwell,” Rooney apologized with a smile. Her smile seemed to put all the flowers to shame.

She was a really beautiful girl!

Her every move and action looked so beautiful to me.

For a moment, I could not help but be stunned by her.

“Wanda?”

Her voice brought me back to my senses.

“Let’s go look for Sylvester.”

“Alright.”

I followed Rooney downstairs. Sylvester just so happened to notice us and looked up. “Did you guys simply run about?”

Sylvester was obviously directing that at me.

Just when I was about to reply, Rooney beat me to it. “We didn’t. Wanda has been keeping me company in my room.”

“That’s good.”

Seeing Sylvester heave a sigh of relief, I started feeling suspicious. Was he afraid that I would have gone off on my own and discovered something?

Just when I was thinking this, I felt a hand tug me. Coming back to my senses, I realized it was Rooney. “Wanda, would you like to stay for dinner?”

To avoid Sylvester seeing through to my intention, I waved my hand. “No need. I still have some errands to run. Since Sylvester has looked over the project, I won’t disturb you two anymore.”

"Thank you. You can’t simply walk around Yard Mansion, though. I hope you can also promise me this." Sylvester’s tone was serious, his expression severe.

I noted the slight warning in his eyes. "Okay. Rooney is a good girl. Treat her well.”

Sylvester seemed stunned for a moment when he heard this. He then replied to me, "I don't need you to tell me that. Of course, I will. I’ll cherish her alone in my life."

Who would not cherish the favor of such a beautiful girl?

I could not stop myself from nodding. "I can leave on my own. You don’t need to send me off, President Yard. You can go back."

"Be careful on your way." After Sylvester said this, he turned around and went back into the living room.

After he left, my gaze returned to the figures that were coming and going upstairs again. Sylvester was getting all of Silas' things packed up. This was not only a confirmation that Silas would not be coming back but also a show of certainty that Silas would not be troubling him anymore.

It felt like Sylvester was too sure about this, and it was a little strange.

With deep doubts plaguing me, I left Yard Mansion. Perhaps the secret would slowly reveal itself in the future...
