The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2467

Shannon looked at how I was sitting on the couch so silently and could guess what made me this way. "Are you like this because of Marius' interview just now?"

I choked having a close friend hit the nail on the head but did not try to hide it. I just nodded calmly.

"Yes. What do you think he meant by what he said in the interview? I don't think he even paused when he said all that just now. Just what was he thinking?"

Shannon smiled at my puzzled expression.

She had always known what Marius' intentions toward me were. She had joked with me about it before, but I just never bothered with it.

Things were different now, though. Marius had now exposed his intentions for me to the public. His expressing his feelings in front of so many people rendered me somewhat helpless.

"Wanda, do you think there's the possibility that Marius only said what he felt? And he might even have been feeling those things since the start?"

Shannon laughed as she said that, and it made me feel angry from embarrassment.

I was, after all, a mother of two. Even though Theo and I had gotten into a fight, it still did not deny the fact that Theo and I were husband and wife.

"Damn it, Shannon. You really love making fun of me. Why would Marius even like me? I'm already a mother with two children. All those young girls out there who like him are a dime a dozen!" Shannon rolled her eyes after hearing what I said. The plan failed again this time.

"Okay, okay, I'll stop talking about it. Seriously, just why won't you listen to me?!"

Shannon sighed and turned away from me, no longer looking at me.

Seated on the sofa, I also heaved a sigh of relief. How could I not understand what Shannon was saying? I was just playing dumb or just did not want to admit it.

Marius has never hidden his feelings after all. I was not a fool. How could I have not seen it? I just really could not accept Marius' feelings.

"Enough, Shannon. You should stop thinking so much. Also, it'd be best not to make this kind of joke in the future. I already have Timothy, Wendy, and Munchkin. I don't want people to start talking." I also went silent after saying that.

Shannon turned to look at me before letting out a weak snort.

"Fine, fine. I'll stop talking about it. It's getting late. I'm going off first. Marius should be going back soon, right?"

When Shannon said this, I lifted my head and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. Realizing that it was indeed late, I echoed Shannon, "Yeah he should be back soon. Why don't you come back with me for dinner?"

Shannon rolled her big eyes the moment I said that. "Give me a break. I'm not that bored. I also have

to get home. I'm not going to go hold up the both of you here. I'm leaving, no need to send me off."

QUMS

Shannon picked up her bag and left after she said that. I watched her leave and did not say anything for a long time.

That night, I went back to the apartment and happened to bump into Marius. I nodded at him, and we went into the apartment together.

"Uhm... Wanda, don't mind it. I did

the interview today to deal with the press. Else, they would keep asking me questions like that the entire day. They'd end up annoying me to

death. Don't think so much."

I nodded but said nothing since I also did not know what I should say.

The atmosphere instantly turned awkward.
