The Woman From Hell



Frank was still a little hesitant. His brows furrowed, and his fingers trembled slightly. He was obviously afraid that his entire family would be implicated if something were to happen to him.

"You've also noticed how more and more young girls have been sold here these past years. The more time passes, the more sins you'll commit. My husband will find this place soon. You'll still be arrested then, but the nature of the situation will be different." I noticed that Frank was wavering, so I added fuel to the fire.

He raised his head and looked at me with panicked eyes as he began to speak a little awkwardly, "You, stop lying to me. You're just trying to convince me to take you away."

I smiled at him and then shook my head. "You think I'm lying to you? Forget it, then. I thought you were honest and kind and wanted to give you a hand. But since you don't believe me, whatever more I say will be useless. Anyway, my husband will be here soon. I don't need to be in a hurry to leave. We'll just wait like this, then. I'll watch you all be taken away by the police together."RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

After I said that, I lay down. "By the way, my husband's name is Theo Grant. You can search for his name on the inte if you have time and you'll know how powerful he is. I'll stop here. I'm going to bed."

I turned over, having my back toward him. Although Frank would not agree with me immediately, he would definitely take this matter to his heart. He would not be able to help himself but ask me again.

Thus, I said nothing more.

The next day, I was woken up again by the old hag early in the morning, but she did not get me to do any work today. Instead, she had me try on clothes. She was holding a red lace dress in her hand. "The wedding day is soon. Try this dress and see if it fits."

"Okay."

After I took the dress, I went to the room to change it. It actually fit me perfectly. I opened the door, and the old hag's eyes lit up when she saw me. She walked around me, "Good. Good, good. Not bad. You'll be even more beautiful when we put some make-up on you then. Frank will also be proud when the time comes, and everyone will praise my daughter-in-law for being more beautiful than the Jarns' daughter-in-law."

I rolled my eyes slightly and smiled. "Is the Jarns family's daughter-in-law the most beautiful person in this village?"

"Yeah, they had a grand wedding last

month. Their bride is really good, but compared to you, she's so much more inferior. We Fulmers will also be majestic when the time comes."

This old hag kept doing comparisons.

Seizing this opportunity, I continued, "I heard from Frank that the Jarns have a car. Frank will probably need a car when he marries too."

"Exactly! He went around in a big circle just to show off his beautiful bride." The old witch was furious when she talked about this.

This delighted me secretly. I

pretended to be casual and said,

"Frank seems to have a good

relationship with Jacob. You can ask him to borrow his car. When we get married, we can also go around the village. The Fulmers will have even more dignity then."

After hearing what I said, the old hag beamed with joy. "I think that's good. I'll tell Frank about it tonight."

"You can't say it was my idea, or Frank will say that I'm sensitive about my reputation."

"Okay, I won't tell him that you said it. You're right, you have to think about your husband when it comes to everything. The Fulmers' reputation is also your reputation."

My suggestion must have made the old hag very happy. She did not ask me to do any chores that day and just asked me to take care of my

skin. She would probably ack E

to go borrow the car in the evening, somy plan would proceed another step further.
