The Woman From Hell
Chapter 136

Chapter 136

There was a mild pain piercing my chest. I pursed my lips and did not say anything. Could we reallybe happy and spend our lives together?

"Theo, do you love me?" It took me a while to ask this question. There was no answer to thisquestion. It was not something that could be expressed with words, but it was a question that everywoman would struggle with.

He was startled for a moment. Then, he lifted his hand to touch my face and asked gently, "Do youlove me?"

Me?

His question caught me off guard. It had been a long time since I thought about this seriously.

I had once loved him deeply.

I remembered that I fell in love with him at first sight. When I married him, I thought I was thehappiest woman in the whole world. After all, not everyone could marry the one they truly loved.

After we got married, my love wore out as he would be cold and distant to me from time to time.However, I had been holding on and persevering.

Yet, my affection for him in these three years was unreturned. It seemed that my heart waschanging. I

even had thoughts about leaving him even though it might be hard for me if I really left him one day.

Even though he was still in my heart, I was no longer a s sad as before. It was clear that no matterhow passionate my love for him was before, it had worn out with time.

There was another possibility-I was not in love with him as much as I was back then!

He pulled a long face when I kept quiet. The darkness i n his eyes grew as he hugged me tightly,saying gently, "There's still a long way to go. We still have a lot of time to love each other."

Was there a lot of time? I dared not to think about it.

"Theo, I'm hungry. I'm craving your home-cooked noodles," I suddenly said after a long pause.

"I'll get you some milk. Having noodles in the middle o f the night is bad for your stomach." He stoodup and began to put on his clothes.

"No. I only want noodles." When I saw he was unwilling to cook for me, I became stubborn againand spoke in an unpleasant tone.

"Alright, alright, alright. My honey bunny, stop fussing. I'll cook for you right now." After he said so, he put on his clothes and went downstairs.

Actually, I was not really hungry. I just wanted to order him around all of a sudden. I guessed it waslike what people often said, pregnant women would behave unreasonably. I did not expect that Iwould be messing around like this one day too.

Theo’s phone rang. He had left it on the bedside table. I lifted my head to see who was calling. Itwas Cindy

Damn, it was in the middle of the night now. What the hell was wrong with her?

I ignored it at first, but she refused to give up. She kept making calls after calls. I could not stand itany longer and answered it. "Theo is making me supper. If you're looking for him, try calling later.”

"Wanda, why are you the one answering the call? Why are you with Theowy at this late hour? Andwhy is he making you supper?" Cindy yelled hysterically at me when she heard my voice.

I could not help but laugh. Sometimes, I thought Cindy was a princess living in her own world,refusing to see the truth. I said, "We're husband and wife. Is it strange for us to be together? We'realso going to sleep on the same bed together later."

"How shameless of you to pester Theowy like this!" Cindy scolded as she cried.

"Why is it considered shameful for us to sleep together? He even asked me to satisfy his needs.Oh, yes, we even took a bath together. So what do you mean by that?"

I hung up the phone without waiting for her to answer. I did not intend to annoy her, but she keptbothering me. I was really tired of her.

Right after I hung up, I turned around and saw Theo standing at the door while holding a bowl ofnoodles.

I had no idea if he heard me. I waved the phone in my hand. "Your phone kept ringing. It was sonoisy that I helped you answer it."

He put the bowl on the table. He placed a pillow behind my back, then handed me the bowl ofnoodles. He said, "What did she say?"

I ate a mouthful of noodles. It tasted good. Then, I replied to him, "I don't know. I didn't ask. I askedher t o call back later."

I just annoyed her and had no idea why she was calling.

It was a hot night and I was having warm noodles.

Suddenly, I felt cold all over. I lifted my head and met Theo’s cold eyes. I did not understand why hehad changed to another person all of a sudden.

"You... What's wrong?" I could not help but say.

It took him some time to reply, and when he did, his voice was deep. "As my wife, shouldn't you bemad at me if another woman keeps calling me in the middle o f the night? Does this mean you don'tgive a sh*t about me?"
