Chapter 334
The Woman From Hell
I was still standing at the window and looking down. Theo was standing there like a statue even
after ten minutes. I muttered a curse and called Mason.
Soon, the call was connected. His voice sounded sleepy. "Hello, may I know who this is?"
"It's Wanda Lane."
Mason took a sharp breath. I could hear it. "Wanda, what the hell happened-"
"Nothing." I did not want to talk about why I went missing last time, so I interrupted his question.
"You need to come over. It's raining cats and dogs now but Theo is standing downstairs, refusing to
leave. Come over and get him."
Although Mason had no idea what was going on, he was considerate enough not to ask any more
questions. He hung up the phone after he asked for m y address.
I felt cold, so I went to the living room to get a blanket. Then, I went to the kitchen to pour myself a
glass of warm water. After that, I went back to my bedroom, wrapped myself in the blanket, and
drank the glass of warm water. I stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. I calmly looked at Theo
who was downstairs.
If it were in the past, I would definitely have gotten soft-hearted. However, when I thought of my
baby who died so tragically, my heart was hard as a rock. It did not matter if it were me or Theo, and
it did not matter what kind of suffering we had to endure. All those meant nothing compared to the
child that I lost.
After half an hour, Mason's car appeared.
He was carrying an umbrella as he got out of his car. H e ran toward Theo. I did not know what both
of them talked about. Theo followed him back into his car not long after.
I let out a small sigh. Then, I turned around and lay down on the bed.
It was a sleepless night.
When it was dawn, I washed up and had the breakfast that the caretaker sent over. The assistant
also came t o fetch me to work.
I saw Matthew when I arrived at the company.
"Why are you here?" After we got into the elevator, I lifted my head, smiled at him, and asked.
"Iâm here to supervise you." Matthew smiled. "If youâre slacking off, then I would have a reason to
punish you by having you go out for dinner with me.â
I chuckled. "How is that considered as a punishment? Itâs an honor to be able to have dinner with
President Zimmer."
This casual conversation cheered me up a lot. When I reached the office, Matthew poured a glass
of water for me. "You don't look so good."
I did not want to mention Theo, so I just said, "I didn't sleep well last night.â
"Then youâd better not attend the meeting later. Go get some sleep in the lounge." My health was
more important than anything else in Matthew's eyes.
I smiled while shaking my head, rejecting him. "I'm a president, after all. How can I not attend the
meeting?â
"No one would dare mention it if I'm around." Matthew raised his chin arrogantly.
I smiled and said nothing more.
"Have you read the papers I gave you?" Matthew sat on the sofa. "The reason I'm here to attend the
meeting today is to set a preliminary development direction for Magnificent Pictures Television.
Although this is a film and television company, I'd like to develop it into an all-encompassing media
company."
"You want to monopolize the media industry," I smiled and said.
Matthew was an ambitious person. He was sharp enough to see that this film and television
company would make up almost 70 percent of the Zimmer family's assets in the future.
