The Woman From Hell



"Did something happen? Are you still depressed because of what happened before?" Shannon looked at me.

There was confusion in her fiery eyes, but I could not tell her. I lowered my gaze a little guiltily and did not reply to her.

Shannon sighed. "Shall we go visit her after work?"

We had, after all, gone through tribulations together, and it was unusual for Shannon to care about others.

I figured I should visit her too, so I agreed. "Okay, Susan seems to be away on a business trip recently, so Nina is the only one home. Let's go and see her."

At the very least, she would not be lonely, was what I thought.

Someone knocked on the door at this moment, and it was our assistant who was bringing in some documents. "President Lane, President Collines, these are the various reports from last month."

"Thank you."

After she left, Shannon and I began looking through the reports from last month. "It's not bad overall. Although it's not much profit now, it is enough to support the company's expenses. We have to think about how to expand our market, though."

"Yeah, we still need to develop some more."

"Shannon, do you think it would be better if we set up our own brand for export?" I was determined to build my own brand and depend on others no

more.

I could see Shannon's eyes light up as her interest was piqued. "Yes, actually. I also thought of establishing our own brand so that we can have our own source of goods and be in charge of quality control ourselves."

"Not bad, but if that's the case, we need to invest more since we'd have to handle the delivery ourselves too." I was a little worried.

Shannon patted me on the shoulder as if she was able to tell what I was thinking, "I have great confidence in us. Not to mention there is no rush to this, so we can wait till we've stabilized. In the meantime, we can make our preparations."

"Yes, you're right."

My prudence and Shannon's optimism were a match made in heaven. Staying with her relieved any depressive mood.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

So that we might live our days to the fullest.

After getting off work, I went to Susan's apartment with Shannon We rang the doorbell, but no one answered the door. "Is anybody in?" I glanced at Shannon and then rang the doorbell several times more.

"Nina should be resting at home. Why isn't she here?"

"Could she have gone out with a friend?" Shannon asked.

I shook my head. "She has no one in Whaldorf City. I'll call her."

I took out my phone and dialed her number, but still, no one answered.

Shannon looked at me. "She probably went out. Shall we drop by tomorrow?"

"We don't really have any other

choice." Just as Shannon and I were about to leave, I looked up and noticed the light in her room was on. I tugged Shannon. "Look, the lights in her room are on. She must be in there, but why isn't she opening the door?"

"It is on. Could something have happened?"

Thinking of how she had been in poor spirits these few days, I gradually became worried. "We don't have a key. Right, I can ask Susan."

Without dallying any further, I immediately called Susan, and she answered very quickly. "What's the matter, Wanda?"

"Susan, do you have a spare key to

your apartment? Nina didn't come out even when I was at the door, but the lights in her room were on. I'm afraid something might have

happened, so I wanted to goela

I and

have a look."

"Okay, there is a key in the grooves on top of the door. You can use it to open the door."

"Thanks."

After getting the information, I immediately found the key, opened the door, and entered the house. We ran toward Nina's room while calling her name, "Nina, are you there?"

Opening the door to her room, I was met with the smell of blood...
