The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2156

Hearing this, Theo was startled for a moment. He then covered his mouth and laughed.

I had never seen him laugh so heartily before. I frowned and snorted coldly, "What are you laughing about? You should answer me."

He stopped laughing, but there was still a smile on his face. Theo reached out and pinched my face. "How can a wife suspect that her husband has this orientation?"

Did that mean he was straight?

I breathed a sigh of relief, but out of concern for my dignity, I still shook his hand away. I turned my face sideways and said with dissatisfaction, "But you are so close to Townsend. And you follow him in everything. People can't help but be led to think so. Why on earth are you so nice to him?"

"Wanda, there's a reason why I'm nice to Townsend." The smile on Theo's handsome face disappeared as he regained his solemnity and serious tone.

The atmosphere abruptly turned severe. I could not help but turn to face him. "What is it that made you eat something you don't like?!"

Theo pulled out a smile again, and his thoughts seemed to start flowing. There were many stories hidden in his eyes. "I told you that Townsend didn't move abroad until he was ten. We were neighbors until then. We fought over everything until the time he saved me when I was eight years old."

"Saved you?" I asked him, puzzled.

Theo nodded and began telling the story. "Back then, I ran away from home after a quarrel with my family. I met Townsend on the road, and we ran into the barren hills together. We lost our way when we wanted to leave, and I accidentally fell while we were looking for the way out. I fell into the trap set by the villagers, and my foot was caught in the animal trap. I thought he'd leave directly. I didn't expect him to save me."

"But you were still children at the time. How could he save you?"

Theo smiled faintly and continued in a deep voice That's right. He also ended up fatting because I dragged him, but he wasn't hurt. He tried his best to release the trap from my feet to save me and ended up scarring both his hands. Fortunately, Some villagers passed by and rescued us before leading us out of the

mountain."

As I listened to him, I did not expect there to be such a story about Theo. It reminded me of when I asked about the scar on his foot before. It turned out to be this.

I looked at Theo and heard him continue, "After the villagers left, he carried me back home. We were both a mess that day. He also got a high fever and passed out the moment we got home. After we woke up, I promised him that I would follow him and not argue with him again as long as I am able."

"So that's why you followed his wish even though you don't like a bitter melon during the afternoon that day. Why does he keep calling you darling?"

"He was aboard for a long time. Naturally, he adopted their habits there. It's very common in foreign countries. He didn't try changing that habit for a while, so I just went along with him." Theo took my hand and met my gaze. "Wanda, now that you know the reason, I wonder if you understand."

I lowered my head. "I admit that I was really upset when I didn't know the truth before, but now I understand why you did what you did. He saved your life, and I am very grateful to him for that. I won't argue with him again after this."

Hearing this, Theo smiled. He reached out and touched my head with a look of relief. "That's great. There's my good wife."

"Oh, can it."
