Chapter 187
The Woman From Hell
After a pause, she continued, "You don't have a job now. If you still canât let go of Theo, then go
back and spend the rest of your life with him. Don't think too much and don't fuss over everything. If
you can let go of him, then get a divorce and we'll live together. We'll be away from all of them,
okay?â
I understood what Cecilia meant by that and knew she was doing it for my own good. However, my
heart was still a mess.
If I remained in this relationship with Theo, then I would forever live in Cindy's shadow. I would have
to force myself to accept Theoâs love and care for her.
However, should I leave just like that? Apart from being reluctant to leave, I felt heartbroken. I did
not want my child to grow up without a father like how I had.
"You're not going to give up, are you? Forget it, go and d o whatever you want. Just remember to
come home when youâre weary one day." She was helpless yet supportive at the same time.
I let out a wry smile without saying a word. I was merely holding her tight.
Cecilia patted my shoulder. "Alright, everything will b
e okay. Let's wash up and go downstairs to have a meal."
I nodded, viewing my own hesitation with contempt. Compared to Cecilia's decisiveness, I did seem
quite like a young girl who was swooning over a boy. I disregarded everything, only to end up hurt
and scarred.
This was my innermost thought. I shook my head and decided to ignore it. One step at a time, I
guess.
I looked at Cecilia and said, "I read online that there's a lot of food over in University Town. Let's go
there and grab something to eat!"
"Sure. I'll go wash up. Wait for me." Cecilia entered the bathroom with a smile.
Rosella City was famous for its abundance of street food. As there were many schools around,
streets packed with vendors selling food were found everywhere. Not only did the food taste good
but they were really affordable too.
To sum it up, it was a slow-paced town with gorgeous scenery and perfect living conditions.
I could not help but recall that Mason used to recommend that I stay here. He had indeed made the
best suggestion for me.
There were two streets of food stalls here in University Town. Almost all the famous foods in the
country could be found here. Cecilia had a good appetite ever since she got pregnant. She visited
each stall from one end of the street to the other. Both her hands were filled with all kinds of foods.
"This is so satisfying. Wanda, it's your loss if you're not going to eat."
My appetite had not been very good. Regardless of what it was, I would get full after taking just a
few bites. I looked at her with a smile and said, "Donât eat s o much. These arenât very nutritious.
Let's go and eat something more nutritious at night. We need to take care of the babies in our
bellies."
"Sure! My belly is big. I can eat everything you throw a t me." Cecilia joked with a wide grin on her
face.
Seeing her unaffected by this morning's phone call, m y mood brightened up as well and I walked
with her while enjoying the scenery.
We spent two days in Rosella City, spending most of our time eating and shopping. We lived a free
and easy life, which improved my mood greatly.
On the third day, Cecilia went to the country. She persuaded me to go back to Salt City. I would
have to face what I needed to face eventually.
Yes, Theo and my problems would have to be solved eventually. I needed to go back regardless of
whether we chose to stay together or separate.
We bought tickets to different destinations. At the high -speed train station, we hugged and bid
farewell before walking in the opposite directions. Our steps were heavy.
Parting was always heartbreaking.
After I boarded the train, I found my seat and began looking out the window in a daze.
I could vaguely feel a strong aura and turned around, only to meet Tyler's smile. "I can't believe
we're so fated."
I looked at him coldly, not saying a word. I knew what kind of man he was. It was easy for him to
find out my whereabouts.
However, I did not understand why he was doing this.
He was no longer the Tyler I used to know. Everything was at his fingertips and he could own
everything he ever wanted. He did not have to waste his time on me.
"What do you want, Tyler?" I asked him after a while.
He stored his luggage away and sat down beside me.
Looking at my eyes, he said, "It feels like home."
