The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2537

"Wanda, what are you thinking about now?" Neil reached his hand out his wave it in front of me.

I came back to my senses and gave him an awkward smile. "Nothing. I used to think Miss Yard met the right person, but it seems now that's not the case."

Could he have given up on my mother and let go of his grievances with the Yards?

If that were the case, did my mother not just waste her life on an unworthy person?

Thinking of this, a fire ignited in my heart. I wanted to vent it out, but there was nowhere for me to do so.

"Not necessarily. He never got married after returning to the Zekes. If he didn't still have feelings for Miss Yard, why is he guarding his body as if it were jade for her?"

"He didn't remarry?"

"I never heard of it."

The fire in my heart eased a little. It seemed that he still had feelings for my mother. Why did he put down his grudge against the Yards and not seek revenge for her, then?

This became a mystery that I could not solve. Perhaps I would get my answer after meeting the man.

I looked at Neil and offered him my sincere thanks. "Thank you, Neil. Thank you for telling me this."

"I just told you everything I knew. If you wish to work with the Zekes to deal with the Yards, I'm afraid it won't be that simple. The man hasn't made any contact with the Yards for many years. I think he doesn't want to have anything to do with them anymore considering what happened."

"I understand, but I'd like to try. Thank you for today. Have you made dinner? If not, why not come to my place for it?"

Neil instantly agreed. "Alright then."

"But I have a few friends over today. Do you mind?"

"No. It'll be good to meet them as well."

I brought Neil over. Shannon and the others were already done preparing the hotpot. "Wanda, you're back. Oh? Is he the one you..."

"Yes. Neil just told me about the Zekes and the Yards. It was helpful, so I invited him over for dinner. Do you guys mind?"

"Of course not. Plus, he's a hottie and now we have three hotties accompanying us for dinner today How great is that?" Shannon's eyes shone when she said this. She was nothing like a married woman.

"You'd better be careful with your words. We don't want Jordan thinking I'm being a bad influence on you."

"He won't. Come on over, you two."

Marius brought out the bowls and cutlery. His expression shifted a little when he saw Neil beside me. "Is he the encyclopedia?" Encuclopedia?

I could not help but laugh when I heard this. "I'm sorry. Marius, don't simply give people nicknames. His name is Neil Hendersohn. These are my friends, Marius Klein and Shannon Collins. He's my brother, Tyler Schuman."

"How do you do? I'm very happy to meet everyone," greeted Neil in a gentlemanly manner.

“Chop, chop.”

Tyler was looking at Neil as he ate. "Mr. Hendersohn, are you from Whaldorf City? You seem to be very familiar with the Yards," said Marius, intentionally or otherwise.

"That's right. I've always lived in

Whaldoft City then went abroad to study and just recently returned. My father used to be in the business world and was in some contact with the Yards and whatnot. That's why I know a little," he answered, unruffled. He even praised the food. "This meat is pretty good? Do have some more."

Marius was a little displeased, and there was a slight peculiarity to his tone. "You've only known Wanda for a few days, yes, Mr. Hendersohn?"

"Yeah, we met each other not long ago."

"You seem very familiar with her. You look like you deal with a lot of women."

"Marius, what are you talking about?" I quickly interrupted him, thinking that he was running his mouth. I then looked at Neil apologetically. "I'm sorry, he didn't mean that." Marius, however, spoke up again, "I did mean that."
