The Woman From Hell
Chapter 99

Chapter 99

"It’s useless. If he’s bent on looking for someone, then there’s no one in this world he can’t replace." Iknew Tyler all too well. The only reason we had been safe all these years was that Tyler hadpromised not to come look for us.

Although he promised that, we had met by chance. It meant that we were still fated in life and hewould not let us off the hook anymore.

Initially, I thought that we would not meet again if he did not come and look for us. However, thesurprise had caught us unprepared.

"What should we do? What can we do?" Cecilia clutched her head, tears streaming down her facelike broken beads.

I embraced her tightly, and my heart was in turmoil. I did not know what to do next.

We did everything we could back then to run away from him. I was sure he would not let us go afterthis encounter.

"Why must he do this? It's been six years and I was so close to forgetting everything about it. Whyis he still appearing in our lives..." Cecilia finally broke down and cried her heart out.

This was the first time in six years that she cried.

I hugged her and shed silent tears. I always thought that we would not see him again. This surpriseencounter had made both Cecilia and me flustered. W e were caught completely unprepared.

"Wandy, go and replace Theo for help. You’re carrying his child. He won’t let Tyler take you away." AfterCecilia was done crying, she grabbed my hand and said anxiously.

"Calm down, Cecilia. It's late now. It'll be even more dangerous to go out at this hour. Let's talkabout this tomorrow and get some rest first. I'll go replace him tomorrow." Cecilia reminded me that Iwas now Mrs. Grant, no longer the loner Wanda I once was.

Perhaps Theo might be able to help us for the sake of his child.

It took me a long time to coax Cecilia to bed, but even s o, neither of us slept well that night.

Due to fear, Cecilia kept having nightmares the whole night; as for me, I had insomnia again just asexpected.

When it was dawn, Cecilia finally fell into a deep sleep.

I silently got up from the bed and hailed a cab back to the villa, preparing to beg Theo for help. Imust not let Cecilia and myself go back to living that kind of life no matter what.

However, I was locked out of the villa when I arrived.

The villa's main door was locked and I could not unlock it no matter what. Someone must havechanged the lock. I called Theo's number but my number was still blocked.

This made the fear in my heart rise tremendously. Not knowing what was going on, I stood dazedlyin front o f the door for a very long time before going to the company.

As soon as I stepped into the company, I felt countless eyes staring at me. When I approached,everyone looked away and pretended to be busy. When I walked farther away, I could hearwhispers behind my back.

This strange and unusual atmosphere made me even more helpless and anxious than I alreadywas. I trotted all the way back to my office and closed the door before breathing a sigh of relief.

What was wrong with everybody? Was Tyler here already? I was afraid the more I thought about it. Ichecked every corner of the office carefully.

When Heidi came in, I was on the ground checking the floor.

"What are you looking for, Ms. Wanda? Do you need m y help?" Heidi said immediately after seeingwhat I was doing.

"It's nothing." I got up. My knees were a little sore from kneeling and the pain did not ease up evenafter I massaged them for a long time.

Heidi helped me to the couch. "Did something happen?" Not only was everybody acting weird today,but even Heidi's gaze was a little odd.

"You don’t know yet?" She looked at me in astonishment, incredulity in her eyes.

I shook my head blankly.

"You and Xander made it to the first spot on the list of trending hashtags last night. The news is stillreally popular right now. Although the PR team handled it immediately, Xander is too popular so it'shard to suppress the news..." Heidi did not continue and lowered her head with her lips pressedtogether.

My heart dropped with a thud as I quickly fished out m y phone, only to realize that my phone wasoff because I forgot to charge it last night.

From the moment I met Tyler, I had been in constant fear and had no time to watch the news.

"Show me your phone," I reached out and said to Heidi.

She handed her phone to me and I tapped into Twitter to take a look. Sure enough, 'Xander Met UpWith A Mysterious Rich Madam At Night' had made it to the first spot on the list of trendinghashtags.
