Chapter 798
The Woman From Hell
He walked up to me and leaned down to kiss my lips." Are you sleepy?"
The man's voice was low, hoarse, attractive, and seductive. It felt like I was having an ear orgasm.
I shook my head. "I slept too much last night and still donât feel sleepy yet."
Theo chuckled. "It's time for you to sleep, though. I'll put you to bed when I get out of the shower.â
My face was a little red. "I'm not a child anymore. I don't need someone to put me to bed."
Theo ruffled my hair with a smile but did not say anything. He then turned around and walked to the
balcony.
I looked in his direction and saw him pulling out a cigarette and lighter.
I frowned slightly and watched as he gracefully put the cigarette butt to his lips. I was momentarily
put in a trance.
It had been a long time since I last saw him smoke. Grant Corporation was suffering a crisis this
time, so i t must be a real nuisance to him, right?
I came back to my senses and got out of bed to walk u p behind him. "The weather forecast says
that it'll snow tomorrow.â
He turned around to look at me. "Let's watch the snowfall tomorrow."
After saying that, he took a puff of the cigarette and slowly breathed it out before putting the
cigarette out.
Since childhood, I had only seen the earth completely covered in snow one time. That was why I
looked forward to the snow tomorrow.
I held Theo's hand. "I've never stayed up at night to watch the snowfall since I was a kid. I look
forward to seeing it."
Theo's body was clearly covered in the scent of tobacco, yet I did not find it unpleasant at all.
He tucked the loose strands in front of my forehead to the back of my ear and said, âWanda, if you
don't want to see someone, then you donât need to see her; if you don't like someone, then you
donât have to like her. You donât have to make things difficult for yourself."
I froze slightly and looked up at him, meeting his deep and dark pupils.
Smelling the tobacco on his body, I reached into his trouser pocket and took out the cigarette case.
"Lend m e one.â
"Don't be ridiculous." Theo snatched the cigarette case away from me. "If you're in a bad mood, you
can vent t o me. I'll not allow you to vent out in any other way."
I shook my head with a smile. "It's getting late. You should go and take a shower. Then come to
bed."
There were certain things that were harder to talk about. It was not that it was difficult to talk about
but I was just unsure about how to start.
Theo's gaze was obscure. Just as I was about to turn around and leave, he opened his arms and
embraced me. "Wanda, you have to know that I'm your husband, the only person in this world who
can share all your sufferings and sorrows with you.â
I felt a lump in my throat.
After a long silence, I said, "Maybe itâs because we're related by blood but I really liked her when I
first saw her. When she reunited with Cindy, I was a little disappointed because I had yearned to be
the biological daughter she had been searching for all these years. When I felt the child dying in my
belly in the suburbs, I hated her guts and swore that if God let me live, I would make sure she was
punished ten times or even twenty times worse than I was."
When I recalled that painful night, there would be a wave of excruciating pain in my heart. "I have
my regrets. I regretted attending Salt City University and I regretted marrying you."
After saying that, Theo hugged me tightly and I could sense his body trembling.
