Chapter 521

I figured I was strong enough to handle whatever the news was, that I would be able to take it no

matter how bad it was. She could just tell me what she found.

Heidi looked at me and said after a very long time, "M r. Grant is calling you again, Miss Wanda. Do

you want to pick it up first? He seems pretty worried about you."

I looked down at my phone screen and the name 'Theo Grant' entered my vision, which made me

even more irritable.

He must be hopping mad now because I had not replied to any of the texts he sent me earlier nor

returned his calls after many missed calls. I was certain that an argument would break out if I picked

u p the call at this moment.

I did not have the time or energy to argue with him, so I mercilessly rejected his call.

"Do you stay very far away from here?" I looked up at Heidi.

"Quite far." Heidi leaned back in her seat. "I'm going back to my house to celebrate New Year’s and

will leave in a few days. The Schumans are holding a family banquet in the next few days, so you

need to return to Whaldorf City before then. Therefore, you need to quickly finish up your affairs

over here. I’ll drive you to a place tomorrow and you can decide your next course of action."

I nodded.

Later, Heidi sent me to Regal Villa. This place had been vacant for a very long time with only two

servants cleaning the place all year round.

When the servants saw me, they quickly entered the bedroom to clean it.

When they were done cleaning, I planned to go back to my room to take a shower and get some

rest. Heidi would come very early the next morning to pick me u P-

After coming out of the bathroom, I picked up my phone and Theo happened to be calling me.

I hesitated for a few seconds before answering it.

"Where are you, Wanda?” It was Zedd’s voice.

I pursed my lips. "What's wrong?"

"Come to The Imperial and take Theo home. He has had too much to drink."

I sighed. "I can’t go over there right now."

"No way, you must come over. Theo won't listen and keeps drinking."

Zedd sounded quite anxious. I knew he was serious about it but I was in Salt City now, so there was

no way I could pick Theo up even if I wanted to!

"I really can’t go over." I held my throbbing forehead." He's drunk now and isn't that strong anyway.

Why don't you get someone to carry him home?"

Zedd said, "Theo is much stronger when he drinks. Why don't you come over right now? If you don't

come over, then I won't be responsible if anything happens t o him from over drinking."

F*ck, was I supposed to fly over?

I sat on the bed and pulled at my hair irritably. "You don’t have to be responsible for anything. Let

him drink. That's his body anyway. If he won’t appreciate i t, then no one will."

"Wanda Lane!” A familiar voice entered my ears.

Theo snatched the phone from Zedd's hands. "How can a wife not care about her husband?"

"Theo Grant, do you think you’re a three-year-old?" I refused to indulge him and spoke my mind,

"What are you doing getting drunk out there instead of sleeping a t night? Don't you feel ashamed to

say that to me?"

Zedd probably heard what I said and whistled as though things were not serious enough.

Later, I heard a grunt and figured Theo must have punched him.

"Alright now." I did not want to entertain him further and said in a cold voice, "Go home if you're fine.

I have things to do in the next two days. Don’t call me if it isn't important."

I mercilessly hung up after saying that, not giving him the chance to speak.

Afraid that he would call me again and make my life hell, I switched off my phone. I quickly did some

unpacking before lying on the bed to sleep.

The next morning, I woke up with a headache and quickly took some cold medicine because I was

afraid that I had caught a cold.
