The Woman From Hell



Come the next day, the sun was just right.

I was in a good mood now that I had found out the truth. I bumped into Theo and Townsend, who had just returned from their run when I came downstairs. This time I was no longer angry and greeted them, "You guys are done with your run. Would you like to take a bath first or have breakfast first?"

"I'll go take a shower first." After Theo said that, he went upstairs and back to the room.

My gaze fell upon Townsend. "What about you?"

His scrutinizing gaze roamed over me. Townsend looked completely on guard. "Did you take the wrong meds today?"

"What do you mean?"

"Aren't you angry?" Townsend asked me, tilting his head. He was obviously confused by my reaction.

I chuckled as I shook my head. "Why should I be angry?"

Townsend circled me. Touching his chin, he said, "It's only been one short day. How could you have changed? You were still angry when you saw us yesterday. What, are you not jealous now?"

"There's no point getting jealous about you." I was all smiles, my tone light.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

His probing gaze lingered on me still. He still looked confused.

"Alrighty, Theo is going to be done soon if you're still going to just stand here. Aren't you two going to the company together?" I urged him. Townsend frowned. He was even more surprised when he heard what I said. "Strange, truly strange." Muttering, he went upstairs to take a shower. Putting aside my prejudices, Townsend was a rather interesting individual. I smiled slowly and went into the kitchen to help Caroline with breakfast. By the time they came down, breakfast was ready.

Townsend was taken aback when he saw me smiling at him. He sat down and moved closer to Theo. "What's wrong with your wife?"

Of course, could hear him, and

before Theo could even reply to him,

I responded, "I'm fine, and I'm right

here Why didn't you ask me directly, Mr Townsend?"

Townsend was thoroughly astonished. My smile likely frightened him. "My God, the shrew has become a lady?"

Shrew?

Forget it. I was not going to bother with him.

Maintaining my good mood, I pursed my lips and smiled lightly. "Let's have breakfast. We don't want to waste any more time."

Townsend was feeling overwhelmed this early in the morning.

After breakfast, I went to the company in a great mood. I came late today, and most of the people had already arrived. I greeted them one by one with a smile.

When I entered the office, Shannon was already there.

She came up to me looking like she was pursuing gossip when she saw me, "How did it go? What's the result of your interrogation?"

"He's not bi," I revealed directly.

Shannon looked at me with a smile. "No wonder you're smiling. Did you find out why he is so nice to Townsend, though?"

"Yes, I did. I put down my bag and sat down. Shannon pulled out the chair opposite me and took a seat. "Theo told me Townsend saved him when he was eight years old."

I told Shannon the story from last night in great detail, and realization abruptly dawned on her. "So. that's the case That's fine, then. So, President Grant is not the kind person. It's said that foreign countries are more open. I guess that's true if he's calling anyone to everyone, darling."

"Yes. So, I have no prejudice against Townsend now, and I am not angry anymore. I should treat him well since he is the one who saved Theo."

"It's good that the matter is settled. By the way, Nina didn't come today?"

"I agreed to give her three days off yesterday so that she can get good rest. She's been in a rather poor state recently."

Shannon nodded in agreement. "Yeah, she didn't look too good."
