The Woman From Hell

Chapter 439

I burst out in maniacal laughter. "It wouldn't be a problem if you agree."

This man in front of me did not even ask why I went t o the apartment. How unreasonable of him tolose his temper without asking what had happened!

Theo got so angry that he slammed his palm against the door hard. The sound was extremely loudand terrifying. "Wanda Lane, do you really think so? Do you really want to be with him?"

Ultimately, I could not stand his temper anymore. Thus, I lifted my hands and pushed him on hischest." Theo Grant, you said you might not be returning tonight. If I truly wanted to be with him, whydid I come back in the heavy rain in the middle of the night? When it comes to Matthew Zimmer, youalways lash out at me without even asking for the details.

You're just being unreasonable.”

He took a deep breath. I could see the veins bulging on his forehead. "Okay, then tell me why youstayed until so late before coming back."

The corners of my lips twitched as I said, "Look, I’m tired from standing. Let me sit down and I'llexplain everything to you."

Theo suppressed his anger and stepped aside.

I plopped down onto the bed and looked at the empty glass on the bedside table. "I'm thirsty."

"I'll get you a glass of water," he said with gritted teeth.

I supposed he must be irked to his limits, having to give in when he was the one who was upset.

In an instant, my mood was lifted. When he returned with the glass of water, I said calmly, "Promiseme that you'll never lose your temper like that again until you ask for the details."

"Wanda Lane!" He ground his teeth together. "Know your limits!"

I shrugged. "I won’t speak, then."

Anyway, there was nothing he could do to me if I chose to keep my lips sealed. The best he coulddo was vex himself to death.

He stared intently at me with his jet-black eyes. There were obvious streaks of resentment in hisexpression. "Wanda, if you still choose to keep silent, I'll torture you tonight even if you’re mad."

"You!" My eyes widened. "Bastard!"

He let out a cold snort, as though he was admitting to his despicable nature. He said, "What canyou do to m e?"

I took a deep breath and yielded. "I'll tell you about it." With that, he straightened his back, eager tohear what I had to say.

As soon as I had flashbacks of Nancy leaping off the building, I shuddered. "I presume you've metMatthew’s mother before. She... She jumped off the rooftop of Zimmer Corporations. I'm sure youcan understand that this would be a huge blow to him. He became emotionally unstable, which iswhy I stayed b y his side in the hospital. After that, I was worried that he would wander about on hisown once he regained more control. Therefore, I suggested he bring me to the apartment so that Icould cook for him."

After listening to my explanation, Theo’s expression grew grave. "Why did she have to make such achoice?"

I sighed lightly. "Nancy found out that Marcus still loved her until his very death. There was anotherreason why he divorced her and married Quinn Grant back then. I guess she was so engulfed byguilt that she wanted to apologize to him in person."

Theo sat by my side and placed an arm across my shoulder. "Okay, let's stop thinking about it.Everyone has their own fate."

He had only met Nancy once, so he was not too affected by her death.

"Matthew is a grown-up and a man at that too. He does not need you by his side all the time. Theone who needs your company is your husband-me," he

said calmly.

The childish words that fell from his lips seemed to seize my tongue.

Seeing me speechless, he frowned and asked, "Is that clear?"
