The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2446

"She's calling. I'll hang up first."

I hung up the phone after I said that to Marius and answered Delia's call.

Delia's delicate voice came from the receiver before I could even say anything, "Hello, Wanda. I don't think you expected me to call you, hmm?"

I was not in the mood to greet her and questioned, "Delia, where did you take my children?!"

"Don't worry, they're in a very safe place. Not to mention, Theo helped me take them there, so don't worry."

Delia's voice sounded so soft on the phone.

The more I listened to her, the more it made me be reminded of someone.

My eyes narrowed as I furrowed my brows tightly. "What do you mean? I've already left Whaldorf City. Will you not even let me take my children with me? Or do you want to help me raise them?"

Delia's laughter rang the moment I said that. She was laughing so brightly, but her voice was grating that it hurt my heart.

"Wanda, don't think I don't know what you guys are up to, pretending to quarrel and then you leaving. You want to trick me again? That's impossible. Come back and go through the divorce procedure with Theo. Then, I will let you and the children go. Otherwise, you'll never see them for the rest of your life."

Delia sounded more and more ruthless as she spoke, and that unconsciously shook me to the core.

She was using the children to get me to divorce Theo.

What a great idea!

I pursed my dry lips and could not help the tremble of my hand that was holding the phone. "This is between us. Don't involve innocent children."

"You forced me to do this. You pretended to get into a fight to confuse me. Did you think I'd fall for it if you left without saying a word? I'm not a three-year-old child. I won't give you your children until you get the divorce."

Clenching my hands into fists, my body trembled. "Okay, just wait. I'll go back!"

"I'll be waiting for you."

With a beep, the call ended.

I slumped down on the bed, my face pale.

Shannon came to the room. When she saw my poor visage after opening the door, she hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

"Shannon, let's go back to Whaldorf City."

"Why?"

I told her everything that happened in the call with Delia just now.

Shannon was furious after she heard everything and immediately wanted to go looking for Delia to settle the score. "How can someone be so vile? You already left, yet she won't let you go. She even took the children away to force you to divorce Theo. Just what the hell is wrong with her? I have to teach her a lesson when I get back!"

"Shannon, just let us handle this. If you get involved..."

"What are you talking about, Wanda? I'm your best friend. How can I not help you now that you're in trouble?" "Listen to me, Shannon!"

I pulled her hand and tried to say calmly, "It's because we're friends that I want to protect you. Don't get involved first. Delia is trouble. If something happens to you and your child because of her, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. I promise you, if fean't handle it myself, will definitely look for you. But before that, don't act rashly, alright?"

Looking into my eyes, Shannon.

nodded Fine. You have to updateet

"Alright."

After negotiating with Shannon, we bought our plane tickets to return to Whaldorf City the next day.

I knew that when I went back this time, I might actually have to say goodbye to Theo!
