The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 436

The police set up a cordon to keep the crowd of onlookers away from the building. I took out my phone and called Matthew.

The call went unanswered. I ran up to one of the policemen and asked anxiously, "Can you please let m e in?"

"Are you an employee in this company?" the policeman asked with an expressionless face.

I froze for a moment before nodding, thinking that only employees were allowed to enter.

However, I did not expect the policeman to stop me." Stay back. You may enter once this is over."

What was I to do?

I was worried to death. While I was contemplating forcing my way in, someone grabbed my arm.

I was stunned when I looked up to see Matthew.

"I'm Miss Nietzsche’s son." Matthew handed his identification card to the policeman.

He glanced at it and nodded. "You may enter."

I trailed behind Matthew as we entered the office building of Zimmer Corporations. I kept looking up at him in the elevator. Although he had an indifferent

expression, his face was as pale as a sheet.

Soon, the elevator dinged and the doors opened to reveal the rooftop. Nancy had climbed to the ledge and was only one step away from being smashed into a pulp. The situation struck terror in everyone’s heart.

"Mom!" Matthew called out to her in a quivering voice.

Nancy's body stiffened. She turned around and laughed through the pain. "Matthew, I'm so sorry, but I have to go now."

"No!" Matthew’s pupils constricted because of fear. " Mom, please! Can you please come down? Can you really bear leaving me alone like this?"

“Mom!” This scene caused Matthew’s heart to stop beating for a second.

The firefighters held him back as he tried to run after her. In a flurry, the situation grew out of control.

I felt my cheeks get wet as I instinctively looked up to the sky. Ah, it had started raining.

How could life be so fragile?

One’s life could be taken away in the blink of an eye. It was so easy to declare that two people were never going to see each other again...

As soon as Matthew was sent to the hospital, the doctor gave him a tranquilizer. He sat rigidly on the chair without moving as he stared blankly out of the window.

I stayed right next to him and kept him company for several hours.

Around four o'clock, I went downstairs to buy something to eat and took the chance to give Theo a call.
