The Woman From Hell



The smell of books wafted from the inside, and I could vaguely catch the scent of dampness.

An abandoned bookstore. Sometimes, I really admired Nicky's ability to find such places.

I walked in. There were still various books on the shelves, but some looked worn out, and dust covered the shelves.

I looked around but did not see anyone.

My brows furrowed slightly. I did not want to continue wandering farther inside but Nicky's voice sounded from somewhere, "I'm here."

I stopped, still hesitating whether or not to enter, but I was unable to refuse the chance to learn my mother's secret. Even if Nicky was lying, I still needed to know where she came to learn of my mother.

Following her voice, I came to a small door next to the counter. There was a yellow curtain. I opened it and entered. I caught a glimpse of Nicky sitting inside. Seeing me, she stood up.

Compared to the mess outside, the inside was well organized. There was even a small bed, which may be where the former owner used to rest. "How much do you know about my mother?" I went straight to the point, not wanting to waste time.

She turned her gaze toward me, and there was confusion in them. Nicky shrugged and let out a laugh. "Looks like you've become stupid after giving birth. You'll believe anything."

I frowned, my expression frozen. I had been fooled. "Why did you know to lie to me about my mother? Who told you about her?"

Nicky blinked. There was a smile hidden in her strange gaze as she shook her head. "I won't tell you since you want to know. Anyway, you won't be able to get out today."

Surprised, I subconsciously turned

around and tried to run, but the

person she had hired had already closed the door before me. Two tall

men stood stood on both sides of the door staring at me solemnly. They were obviously not going to let me out so easily.

Nicky came out of the room. She was smiling. There was clearly

something wrong with her. She et approached me step by step, while I took a few steps back and put some distance between us. "What are you going to do?"

"Do you still remember why I took you to that remote building last year?" She laughed and asked.

Nicky had hired someone from a remote area to come over at that time to sell me off to a mountainous area. Could it be that this time...

There was unease at the bottom of my heart. Nicky saw my panic, and the smile on her face was even wider. "Yes, I just want to realize my unfulfilled wish. This time, it's finally possible."

At this moment, the mobile phone in my bag rang. With one look from her, one of the men by the door ran over, grabbed my bag forcefully, and handed her the phone in my bag.

"Marius?" Nicky pursed her lips and

uttered the name. The corners of her brows were raised, and she looked at me meaningfully. "You're already married, so why do you still have these confidants?" NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

She snorted coldly, then hung up the call. Then, I saw her type out a message before hearing the sound of the message being sent.

She should have come up with some message saying that I was safe and sent it to Marius to make him feel at ease.

"Wanda, I'll try my best to choose a good family for you." Nicky stared at me and then ordered the two men to imprison me. "It's almost time. We should send her on the road."

She threw my phone into the bag and then threw it into the study.

The two men restrained me and dragged me out of the place through the back door while Nicky followed from behind. It looked like those people had arrived. What should I do...
