Chapter 738
The Woman From Hell
"That's enough! Stop saying that!" I did not want to believe his words.
Matthew sneered. "But I don't want to endure it anymore. I want you to know that I can disregard all
sense of propriety and can do anything for you.â
"I said thatâs enough!â I screamed, my breathing slightly rapid. "It's getting late. I should go.â
After getting back to my car, I spent a lot of time before I managed to slow down my heartbeat.
Matthew was still in front of the car, looking at me with a calm gaze.
I squeezed my eyes shut and started the car engine.
When I got home, I went upstairs, changed into my pajamas, and lay under the covers. The house
was warm, and so was under the covers, but I felt particularly cold.
How did a kind person turn out this way?
When it was almost time for dinner, Theo gave me a call and said that he would be working late
today, so h e would not be joining me for dinner. He asked me not to wait for him to come back
before going to bed.
He had been very busy lately and had almost no time t
o take a break. Sometimes even when he was at home, he would have to work very late at night. I
still had things to do, so I did not feel too bored.
On this day, I was ready to go to Canona University for a class when I saw a crowd gathering in
front of the villa.
Reporters!
I was surprised that the reporters knew about this place. Theo had just bought this place. Clearly,
someone had deliberately leaked this out.
However, something must have happened for these reporters to show up. I raised my phone to give
Theo a call.
Before I could tap on his number, I saw a piece of news gossip popping up on the screen. After
tapping into the news, I saw that it was a photo of Matthew and me in the parking lot that day.
The person who took the photo was great at finding angles, making us seem really ambiguous in
the photograph.
My name was just on the top trending hashtags some time ago and it had finally dropped in
popularity when someone took a photo of me behaving really ambiguously with Matthew. I once
again stood in the limelight. My reputation might actually be put on the line this time.
There was no way I could attend classes at Canona now. After sighing helplessly, I went back into
the
villa to give Theo a call.
After learning about it, he comforted me, saying, "Don't be afraid. Those people arenât bold enough
to break into my house. Besides, the security guards will hold them back. Just wait at home until I
come back."
This was my first time being blocked by reporters in front of my house, but I knew those reporters
would not come in, so I was not that afraid.
I pursed my lips. âYou don't have to come back, actually. I can just revise at home. I don't really
have t o go to Canona University."
In a situation like that, even if I could leave the house, there was no way I could go to Canona
University.
After hanging up the phone, I went to the kitchen and found the caretaker. "If you're free, go out the
back door to buy some groceries.â
The caretaker had probably seen the reporters at the front door and helplessly said, "I already
asked Mr. Bean, the man in charge of purchasing the groceries, t o go to the supermarket this
morning when I woke up."
I was stunned. "When did the reporters arrive?"
"I donât know about that. They were already there when I woke up this morning."
They did not come in the middle of the night, did they? These were truly a bunch of really dedicated
reporters.
