The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 373

Theo walked into the mansion just as I was about to turn back into the bedroom and go to sleep.

He came to a stunned pause when he saw me standing at the top of the stairs.

I retracted my gaze and turned around.

"Why aren’t you asleep yet?” Theo asked as he walked up the stairs to stand beside me.

I did not look at him as I said coldly, "Couldn't fall asleep, so I came out for a walk."

"Hah." Theo reached out to turn my face over. "Were you worried because I still wasn't home although it was so late?"

My eyes flickered slightly. When I saw that he was no longer angry, I deliberately said, "Who... Who’s worried about you?"

Since I had chosen to return to him, it was not a smart choice to get into arguments with him. There was nothing I would get in return other than a destroyed soul and an exhausted body.

Besides, I needed to convince him to give up on acquiring Magnificent Entertainment, so it would be better for me to get on his good side.

"I can tell that you’re worried." Theo leaned towards m e. "Why are you refusing to admit it?"

I huffed quietly. "I can't be bothered with you."

When I finished speaking, I pushed him away and walked towards the bedroom.

Theo came in after me, and his eyes twinkled as he gazed at me and asked, "Do you know where your faults lie now?"

"Let’s not talk about past events anymore," I said in a soft voice as I stood with my back to him.

Finally, I heard him quietly hum in agreement.

I heaved a sigh of relief. "It’s late. Let’s go to bed."

Ten minutes later, he and I were lying in bed.

Based on my calculations, it had been a long time since we had slept in the same bed. I was not used to i t, and I ended up tossing and turning in bed as sleep escaped me. Of course, it was also because I had other things on my mind.

"I don't want to." I interrupted him. "I would like to build a career for myself, and not for you."

The expression on Theo's face turned dark. It was clear he was no longer in a good mood.

I collected myself and wrapped my arms around his chest as I said softly, "You told me you would agree to anything I wanted as long as I came back with you."

Once I finished speaking, I put my lips on top of his.

Theo deepened the kiss.

When we finished kissing, I asked, "Can you promise me that?"

Theo wrapped a large hand around my neck. "Do you still think of us as husband and wife?"

He did not exert any of his strength in his hand as he merely wanted to scare me. I could not help but smile as I said, "I tried taking the initiative to butter you up, but you're still angry. If I had known earlier, I would have just used my authority as your wife to order you t o stop trying to acquire Magnificent Entertainment."
