The Woman From Hell
Chapter 950

Chapter 950

Though this was only on the surface, I found that this was more unbearable than the arguments weused to have.

Theo pursed his lips. "Wanda, we-"

His phone rang before he could finish his sentence. H e looked a little unhappy but still answeredthe phone. "What’s wrong?”

Something was being said on the other end of the phone, and Theo abruptly stood up from the sofa.He said coldly, "Don’t panic yet. I'll be there immediately."

After hanging up the phone, he looked apologetically a t me and said, "I’m sorry, Wanda. Thecompany-"

"You should hurry up and go." I cut him off before he could finish his sentence. "Drive safe."

After a pause, I continued, "You have to stay calm no matter what happens."

Theo was stunned, then he planted a kiss on my cheek with a smile. "I’ll keep that in mind."

After he left, I sat on the sofa in a daze for a very long time. I then summoned Munchkin, who wassitting on the carpet in the center of the living room fiddling with his toys.

"Do you miss me, Mommy?” He ran over to put his arms around my neck and asked with a smile.

I kissed his forehead and said, "Mommy misses you all the time."

Munchkin chuckled mischievously and sat on my lap, asking, "Did you and Theo go to see the babytoday?"

I was stunned. "Who told you that?"

"Uncle Tyler came to see me at the kindergarten today. He told me."

Tyler was truly well-informed. I cast my eyes down at Munchkin and hesitated for a moment beforeasking," Munchkin, Mommy will be going away for a few days. Do you want to stay with Theo or goto Grandma's place?"

He tilted his head to look at me, asking curiously," Aren’t you taking me with you, Mommy?"

"Mommy wants to bring you along but you have classes. Don’t worry, I’ll be back very soon. You'llstay i n Whaldorf City. Uncle Tyler and Theo will take good care of you."

He frowned. "But I want to go out and play with you, Mommy."

"Munchkin!"

My tone was a little heavier. "You can go out with me only when you have school holidays. I'vealready applied for extra days off for you during the April holiday, so you can't be so greedy. Kidsand adults are all the same. Everyone has their own affairs, just like how Theo needs to go to workevery day and you need to go to school every day too. Do you understand?"

Oftentimes, Munchkin would stop being so stubborn when he saw me mad. This time was noexception either. He said in an aggrieved tone, "I understand, Mommy.”

I opened my mouth to say something but in the end, I merely said, "That’s Mommy's good boy."

It was midnight when Theo returned. I opened my eyes in a daze and saw him lying on the bed. As Iwas too tired, I did not ask him how the issue was handled and thought maybe I should ask when Iwoke up in the morning.

Though when I woke up the next morning, Theo had already left the house.

Caroline knocked on the door and asked from outside, "Are you awake, Ma'am?"

I got out of bed to open the room door. Looking at Caroline standing outside the door, I asked, "Isbreakfast ready?"

She nodded with a smile. "Before leaving the house, M r. Grant told me to come upstairs to collectthe clothes that need to be washed.”

"Come in and get them, then."

She was usually the one who washed all the clothes, s o I did not think too much about it and tiedmy hair before going into the bathroom.

She was sorting out the clothes that Theo had changed out of yesterday when I accidentally saw alipstick mark on one of the white shirts.

Caroline had clearly seen it too and was so awkward that she did not know what to say.

I spat out my mouthwash and walked over to grab that white shirt. Caroline stammered, "Mrs.Grant, maybe M-Mr Grant..."
