The Woman From Hell

I did not know that he was coming back. The company would soon go on annual holiday, and with

the scandals affecting Grant Corporation still around, h e had been extraordinarily busy these days.

He walked up to me and looked me up and down before saying in satisfaction, "You look

exceptionally beautiful.”

I pursed my lips. "Thank you."

That was not the point, though!

I sighed and held his hand, saying softly, "I need to rush to the wedding venue. You've been so busy

lately, I don't think you have the time to go with me, right?"

As I knew that he would be very busy lately, I did not bring up the topic of attending the wedding

together.

"I have time, of course." Theo moved his lips closer to my ear. The breath he exhaled was

extremely teasing. "I don’t want other men to hit on you in places I can't

99 see.

When I heard footsteps behind me, I figured the makeup artist and her assistants were coming

downstairs. My face blushed, and I pushed Theo away. "No one will hit on me." "Why not?" Theo

raised his eyebrows. "My Wanda is so

gorgeous."

I quickly covered his mouth. "Stop it."

I looked back at the makeup artist and assistants. I felt a little awkward. "I'm in a hurry to go to the

wedding venue, so I’ll not see you out."

The makeup artist nodded with a smile. "Have a nice day, Miss Lane."

When the trio walked out, one of the assistants whispered, "I thought it was just rumors, but it turns

out that Miss Lane really is Mr. Grant's wife-"

"Shh.” The makeup artist shushed her immediately.

When they had walked out of the villa, I looked at Theo and said in a helpless tone, "I don’t want to

delay your work."

He raised his hand and fixed the plush shawl on my shoulder as if he was worried that I would be

cold. "I have time to accompany my wife to the wedding banquet.”

Since he had said so, I had no choice but to let him.

After getting into the car, Theo took off his coat and draped it on me. "Let it stay like that for a while.

The car isn’t warm enough. Put this on so you won’t catch a cold."

I frowned. "Aren’t you cold?"

Theo shook his head. "You're more afraid of the cold than I am."

I smiled and said no more.

Looking at the bright sun outside, I gently let out a breath of air. "It’s a good day today.”

Theo started the car engine. "Indeed.”

The wedding was held in a five-star hotel. It was now December, so there were not many flowers

that could b e bought in Whaldorf City. Hence, the Louises had imported various kinds of flowers

from all over the country.

As far as the eyes could see, the hotel was like a city surrounded by flowers. I was attracted by the

beauty o f it and could not help but rest on the car window to admire the sight.

Perhaps I was in a good mood, so I tugged on Theo’s sleeve and said, "This is my first time seeing

so many kinds of flowers. It's so beautiful.”

Although Zenon’s climate made it possible to plant various kinds of flowers, it was impossible to see

all kinds of flowers.

Therefore, I was astounded when I saw the wide array of flowers.

A gush of warmth came from my forehead. Theo’s palm was pressed against my forehead.

I was slightly stunned and turned around to look at him. "What's wrong?" "The car window is cold."

Theo's voice was soft.

My forehead was very close to the car window just now and he was afraid that I would touch it, that

was why he did so.

Warmth enveloped my heart. "I'll move away if I accidentally touch the window and it's too cold."

"Be good and listen to me." He pulled me into his arms. "It'll look more beautiful when you get out of

the car and see it up-close."
