The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2398

After arriving at the study, I could no longer stand it and shook his hand away. "Theo, why did you pull me here?" Theo's brows scrunched up tightly, and he sighed lightly as if I were kicking up a fuss for no reason. "Wanda, calm down." "Delia is hurting our children. Our children. How can you be so calm?"

Theo still had his document bag in his hand. He had just returned from the office, and his face carried traces of tiredness.

I figured he must be very tired to come back to this after working an entire day.

Yet I would not be able to quell my anger until this matter is resolved.

I needed Delia to pay for her mistake targeted at my children.

Theo put down the document bag and reached his hand out, wanting to embrace me. "Wanda, slow down. I won't let this slide so easily."

I shoved his hand away with frustration. "I need to see Delia punished."

"Are you so sure she did it? Do you have proof?"

I looked at Theo shocked, for a moment not daring to believe that this was something that he would say. "Did you not hear what Caroline said? Isn't this matter obvious?"

My tone was getting more panicked. All my sensibilities collapsed the moment I thought about the children, about how Theo was not siding with me immediately and even countering me with questions like this. "But Delia isn't that kind of person. No matter how wicked she is, she wouldn't hurt children. She's also a mother."

"So what? These are my children, not hers. Are all her suspicions cleared just by her putting on a pitiful act? As if she wouldn't dare do something so evil."

"Wanda, don't be like this. You can't simply say things without proof."

I was beyond furious.

The person in front of us was clearly Theo, whom I loved most, but he felt like a stranger to me at this moment. It was as if I had never actually gotten to know him before.

"So what if I don't have proof? There's bound to be a perpetrator in a situation like this. Delia is the most suspicious."

"And if it isn't her?"

"Are you saying that it's me, then?" I was so angry that I was not choosing my words.

Theo's gaze was becoming more and more complicated. He seemed to be getting more and more exhausted.

I knew that I might just be an unreasonable shrew to him at this moment, yet I could not care that much anymore. I just wanted to ensure my children's safety. "That's not what I meant..."

"Theo, do you know that Delia is

definitely out there hearing us argue? Your attitude has determined her behavior in the upcoming days. If you don't believe me today and if you don't punish her, she'll be even more arrogant."

Theo was completely exhausted. He looked at me helplessly. "Wanda believe you, but I don't believe Delia would do that. She isn't that cruel. That said, you don't have proof."

I smiled bitterly. "So you're saying I made all of this up?"

"No, I know you wouldn't do that. I already said I believe you."

"Then believe what I'm saying."

"I'm sorry, I can't"

Theo was insistent on his own judgment. I knew he wanted proof, but Delia's actions had been seamless. How could there be proof?

"Wanda, be patient, alright? Let us look into this matter slowly."

I had had enough and did not want to hear another word from him.

"I can't do that. Theo Grant, I'll never forget what happened today."

I left angrily and saw Delia's proud

in the future to avoid such theful

from happening.
