The Woman From Hell
Chapter 519

Chapter 519

I was just about to start the car engine when Zedd rushed out of the building.

He waved at me and I lowered the car window.

Zedd rushed over and said with a grin, "Wanda, Theo booked a table at The Imperial. Want to comealong?"

The Imperial?

The Imperial Hotel served the rich and noble all year round. They introduced a couple's floor lateron and it became the favorite dating spot among couples ever since.

I guessed that Theo probably wanted to fix things with me, but I simply could not attend.

When I saw Theo walk out of the building with his countenance still icy-cold, I sighed. "I’m sorry butI really have things to do right now."

After being rejected the second time, Zedd grew a little upset and no longer had the mood to becourteous with me.

"Wanda Lane, you don’t know how to appreciate other people's good intentions, do you? Theo hasbooked a table in The Imperial. I'm sure you know what that means, right? He has offered you anoption but you refuse to take it. Do you even know how to get along a s a married couple?”

I pursed my lips and thought for a very long time before saying, "Mr. Zedd, I appreciate yourkindness, but a lot of things out there aren't as simple as you think. Can you please convey myapologies? I really can't join you. Also, can you pass along this message t o him? There are toomany issues between us and if these issues can't be solved, there's no way we can keep thismarriage."

After a pause, I continued, "In order to solve these issues, we both need time to think about thesolution. Hence, let's give each other time for a cool-off period.”

Having said that, I raised the window and started the car engine.

I was in a tremendously irritable mood on my way to the airport. I knew that Theo wanted to easethe tension between us but I did not want to. Perhaps I was really tired at this moment. I was afraidthat we would be simply incompatible no matter how hard we tried. 1

If that was the case, why should I be wasting my time?

My head was a mess, and Theo was in a similar state. What we needed now was some time tocalm down. It just so happened that my trip to Salt City this time could give the two of us just that.When I returned, we would then discuss whether our marriage was worth keeping or not.

When I arrived at the airport, I picked up my ticket and went to the terminal.

After having my ticket checked and boarding the flight, I took my seat and closed my eyes.

Before I switched off my phone, I saw a few unread messages, all of which were from Theo.

He asked me where I was going, when I was coming home tonight, and whether we should have aproper talk, stuff like that.

I did not have the time or mood to text back, so I switched off my phone straight away.

The plane landed at the airport in Salt City at six in the evening. I disembarked the plane and calledHeidi.

The call quickly connected and I said in a rush," Where are you, Heidi? I've just gotten off the planeand I'm going over to you.”

"I'm outside the airport," Heidi said with a smile.

I was stunned.

Heidi said, "I did some checking and figured you'd take this flight, so I came over half an hour agoand waited for you.”

I could not help but think about how reliable she was. I was right about her.

The sky had turned dark. I walked out of the airport and saw Heidi standing across the road fromthe airport. She was wrapped in a thick down jacket with a scarf coiled around her neck, coveringhalf of her face. I remembered that she was afraid of the cold and walked over, saying, "Don’t youthink you're a little silly standing out here in the cold waiting for me?"

She laughed. "It’s not that cold today."

I cast my eyes down and put away the smile on my face. "Take me there."

A complicated expression flashed across Heidi’s face." Let's have something to eat first."

I pursed my lips and mulled it over for a very long time before nodding.

Honestly, I really wanted to replace Jerome right this moment to ask him what was going on. I was sureHeidi knew, but she probably had her reasons for not telling me.
