The Woman From Hell

Chapter 2217



I went up to the door of Theo's room that evening.

After knocking on it a few times, he opened the door slowly. He had a towel on his shoulders as he wiped his freshly washed hair.

The water droplets from his hair slid down his face, and my gaze was fixed on his alluring Adam's apple. Even this man's throat was good-looking. His unique charm did not reduce the older he got.

Theo smiled when he saw me. "Why did you come all of a sudden?"

"I have something to discuss with you." I cleared my throat and turned my gaze away as I strode straight into the room.

I chose to sit by the bed while Theo pulled a chair over and sat in front of me. "Tell me, what's the matter?" he said while wiping his hair.

I stared at his movements. His slender fingers were curled around the towel as he wiped his hair over and over again, revealing some of his bone structure. It made one want to hook their own hand with his. His every gesture was so exciting.

Seeing that I did not say anything for a long time, Theo put down the towel and patted my thigh. "What's wrong?"

I came back to my senses and pursed my lips. I was still attracted to him after so many years, damn it!

"I'm here to ask when you'll be returning to Whaldorf," I said after dallying for so long.

Theo was obviously confused by my question. The corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a trace of helplessness and doubt. "Why? Are you looking forward to me going back?"

"Yes, I hope you'll go back to Whaldorf immediately after finishing your work. Don't stay here any longer." I looked at him with a seriously solemn gaze.

Theo tilted his head as he looked at me. There was suspicion in his eyes, but after a while, he returned to his original state when he abruptly realized what was going on. "I understand. I can probably go back after getting things done the day after tomorrow. Don't worry, Madam. I won't stay for long."

After some contemplation, I shook my head. "No, go back tomorrow night."

Shannon and I would be together for another week or so. I could only rest assured if Theo returned to Whaldorf as soon as possible.

The man looked at me with innocent eyes. "Madam, how could you treat me like this? You want me to go back to Whaldorf while exhausted?" Uh... he made a good point.

My heart softened. "Okay, okay, you can go back early morning the day after tomorrow, then. I will have no peace until you go back."

"I shall obey thee." Theo approached me, the smile on his lips deepening.

I pushed him away, got up, and prepared to leave. "Forget it, I'm not in the mood today. You leave early morning the day after tomorrow, you hear?!"

Theo leaned against the bed and looked at me. "Got it."

"Okay, I'm leaving." I opened the door and walked out.

Back in the room, Shannon came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. "Where did you go?"Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

"I asked Theo to go back to Whaldorf City early to avoid getting entangled with Harriet."

Hearing this, Shannon came to my side and put her arms around my shoulders. "How tough it must be for you. Our Wanda is so sensible and knows how to protect her husband."

I let go of her hand and glanced at her. "What are you talking about? I'm doing this to avoid scandals. It wouldn't be good for us if any photos get taken by the paparazzi and are posted on the inte later."

"Yes, yes, you're right. But don't you think the paparazzo we caught today was a bit strange?"

Now that Shannon mentioned it, he did seem a bit strange. "Yes, he was indeed a little off."

A five-star hotel would not let

strangers upstairs so easily. Not to

mention he was still wearing his work card around his neck. Many artistes, Come for shoots in Jarlston, and this hotel has entertained no fewer celebrities. If surveillance was poor, countless photos from this place would have probably been circulated, but I had never heard of any so far. That would mean the hotel's security was rather strict.

If that was the case, how did the paparazzo get in...
