The Woman From Hell
Chapter 466

Chapter 466

Theo was at a loss as to what he should do and turned to me as he said, "You're in charge of thedecisions made at home."

That was a nasty trick. He wanted me to play the bad guy.

I glanced at him coldly and said, "She's not the first irrelevant person to move into our house.Whatever."

When I finished speaking, I immediately turned and walked upstairs.

Theo walked up after me. He hugged me from the back the minute we entered the bedroom. "Ididn't mean to have you take care of such prickly matters. I was trying to get you to reject theirrequest. I would have kicked her out the minute you refused.”

I understood what Theo wanted to do when I was walking up the stairs, which was why he did notneed to explain anymore.

"I know. Let me go. I want to take a shower."

"You’re angry," Theo said steadfastly.

I sighed wryly. "I'm not angry."

Theo only let go of me when he saw that my expression did not seem off.

When I walked into the bathroom, I filled the bathtub with water before stepping in. As I slid downinto the water, I closed my eyes.

I knew perfectly well why Quinn invited Cindy over.

She was threatening me. If I refused to help her, she would help Cindy get Theo.

It might have been useful against me in the past, but it would not work anymore. I would not stopthem, nor would I try to interfere in any way. If Theo got together with Cindy, I would step out of therelationship.

Besides, I was delighted to have both my enemies living right under my nose.

Theo was not in the bedroom when I finished my bath and came out of the bathroom. I could not bebothered to blow-dry my hair and merely wiped it with a towel several times before sitting down atmy desk. I prepared the documents I needed for my video call.

Just then, Tyler called me. I picked up and asked quietly, "What's up?"

"Quinn is living under the same roof as you. It'll probably be easier for you to keep an eye on heryourself, right?" Tyler laughed as he asked.

I pinched the bridge of my nose as tiredness washed over me. "She's not doing anything now, sothere’s nothing to keep an eye on. Help me look into her personal information. The more detailed,the better.”

I paused for a while before saying, "I'll email you a

document soon. Show it to my dad after you’ve read it."

Tyler answered softly, "Got it."

I took a look at the time. "I still have something else to take care of. I'll be hanging up now.”

"Wait." Tyler did not want me to hang up. "I'll take you t o the hospital tomorrow. We can't delaytreating your illness any longer.”

Annoyance flared in me when I heard my illness being mentioned. "No need for now. We'll discussthat when I have time."

Without waiting to hear how Tyler would try to convince me, I took my phone away from my ear anddisconnected the call.

Perhaps it was because the two women I hated were now staying in the same house as me, so Iwas in a pretty bad mood. Worried that my illness would act u p, I found my antidepressants in thebedside cabinet and took them.

Theo happened to walk in just as I was putting the bottle back into the drawer. The expression onhis face changed as he asked, "Are you in a bad mood?"

I nodded slightly.

He did not say anything else as he turned to walk into the bathroom.

The video call was about to begin. I took my laptop over to the couch and sat down.

When Theo finished his shower and walked out to see that I was in a video meeting, he sat down atthe desk t o do his work.

The meeting ended at eight o'clock. I stretched as I shut my laptop. Theo put down the pencil hewas holding and walked toward me. "Are you done with your work?"

I nodded. "The rest can be taken care of tomorrow."
