The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 496

The sound of a car engine rang out outside the villa and gradually went away. I suddenly felt as though all my energy had seeped out of my body. Miss Woods caught me in a timely manner. "Don't be afraid, Miss Wanda. It'll be okay. You'll be fine."

She was not afraid if Cindy was okay; she was worried if I was okay.

How could it be okay?

Whether Cindy survived or not, neither Petra nor Grayson would spare me.

However, I was neither afraid nor concerned. I was only worried that Theo would hate me. I knew now that I could never compare to Cindy. If he was given a chance to choose between saving Cindy or me, I was sure that he would pick Cindy.

There was no way he could ignore Cindy. I was nothing to him.

I let out a bitter chuckle. "I've lost, Miss Woods. I've lost completely."

Quinn walked downstairs. "Why would you do something so foolish when you’re such a clever woman? You obviously have many ways to retaliate against her yet you chose the most extreme means."

I glanced at her but did not utter a word.

Knowing that there was no use saying anything now, she sighed and turned around to leave.

I pushed Miss Woods’ hands away and walked out of the villa.

Why would I even think that Theo did not love Cindy? They grew up together and relied on each other for so many years, so how could they not have feelings for each other?

What he had for me was probably a sense of responsibility and guilt. If something bad happened, h e would no doubt pick Cindy's side.

"Where are you going?" Mason appeared in front of me.

I looked down. "To the hospital."

Mason pursed his lips and pulled me back into the villa.

Theo frowned. He suppressed the anger in his heart and grabbed my arm, pulling me up from the sofa. " You must go."

Having said that, he quickly pulled me out of the villa.

After being forced into the car, I looked down at my reddened wrist and felt a stabbing pain in my heart.

When we got to the hospital, Theo continued to grab m y arm as though afraid that I would run.

He was trotting and I could not keep up with his pace. My steps were messed up and I fell to the floor on my knees.

"Theo..." I held back the urge to cry and said in a hoarse voice, "You can tell me straight away if you want me to pay for Cindy's life and I won’t fight back. For the sake of our past relationship, I just hope you won’t torture me unnecessarily."

Theo's pupils contracted abruptly as he yanked me up from the floor. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

I shook off his hand. "It's okay. This is nothing compared to Cindy who’s now lying in the emergency room."
