The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2522

I felt a little nervous looking at the high wall.

Gathering up my courage, I rang the doorbell.

I felt more and more nervous as I waited and stood by the door. It finally opened after a while.

"Miss Lane?"

"Is Shannon around? I'm looking for her."

"The Madam... is in, but..." the housekeeper hesitated with a strange expression on her face.

I was puzzled and asked what was wrong.

"The madam returned furious the other day and told us that she won't want to see you if you were to come." The housekeeper seemed a little embarrassed as he smiled at me apologetically. "I apologize, Miss Lane."

It was my fault that Shannon was disappointed. It was only natural that she would be mad at me.

I returned the smile. "It's okay, but please tell her that I'll be waiting for her at the door."

The housekeeper looked troubled but nodded. "Alright, please wait a moment."

Standing at the door, I waited for the housekeeper. Recalling the things that I had said to Shannon back then, they had indeed been too much. I wondered if her anger had subsided by now.

I was looking forward to finally seeing the housekeeper, but she was apologetic. "I'm really sorry, Miss Lane, but the madam said she won't be seeing you. So, please leave."

I had expected this considering my attitude toward her at the time and Shannon's personality. She would not forgive me so easily. She had always made a clear distinction between love and hate.

"Please inform her again that I'll wait for her at the door until she's willing to see me."

Shannon would be even more disappointed if I left now, so I had to stay here.

"Miss Lane, you can actually wait a few more days before coming back here. Everything will be fine once the madam's anger eases. While I'm unaware of what happened between you two, I believe Madam's friendship with you still exists." The housekeeper's words gave me great comfort, so I thanked her. "Thank you, I'll wait for her here. Please let her know."

"Alright," she replied and went in again.

Not long after, the housekeeper came out again. "Miss Lane, the madam-"

Before the housekeeper could finish, Shannon's voice boomed from across the door, "You should give up. I'll never forgive you!"

The housekeeper looked at me with a helpless expression. "You heard it. Why don't you go back first?"

"I'll wait at the door until you're willing to see me," I shouted back before looking at the housekeeper. "I'm sorry to trouble you."

I did not go in just stood at the

door and waited. The housekeeper probably could not help but give me a small chair before heading back inside. Shannon probably did not want her interacting with me

QUMS

At least things would be much more bearable with the chair.

Shannon had blocked my number a long time ago. I went to apply for a new number and sent her a message.

[It's all my fault. You can beat me and scold me as you like. Please forgive me, alright?

[I was wrong. shouldn't have

treated you like that. You were only thinking of me, and I've thought it through how. I won't reject you guys again 'm sorry, Shannon. Please come out and see me. Let me apologize to you in person.

[Shannon, my dear Shannon. My dear sister, please come out and see me.]

Shannon did not reply tome even after I had sent several messages. I did not know if she even read them.

I looked inside, but there was not a sound.

Was I really going to lose my good friend like this?

My head lowered, and I felt a little crestfallen.

I was unsure how much time had

passed, but a figure appeared before me all of a sudden and I was overjoyed. "Shannon?" However, my smile faded when I saw who it was. "Jordan, you're back."
