The Woman From Hell Chapter 127
Fine. There was only one outcome if I persisted—another fight.I had no intention of fighting with him. Hence, I dried my hair and went to sleep. After ten minutes, Theo came out, lifted the covers, and lay down beside me. It had been a long time since I was so close to him. I was not used to it, so I squirmed my body to the side."You'll fall if you keep inching to the side." With his eyes closed, he scooped me and the blanket into his arms. He said in a deep voice, "We're husband and wife. Are you going to avoid me forever?" While his voice was calm, it sounded a little helpless.“I’m not avoiding you. You’re still wet and it’s uncomfortable,” I said. I did not want to talk about this with him. He let go of me and got out of bed. He picked up the towel and seriously wiped himself again. Then, he got back onto the bed and said, "Touch me. I’m dry now."“You are.” I turned over, lay on my side, and closed my eyes.He reached his hands out from behind and took me in his arm

After he spoke, he put on his clothes and left. Then, there came the noise of the car engine starting from downstairs. I could not help but sigh. People were envious of Theo for being rich, but no one knew how difficult it was for him.The world had always been fair. One would have to put in more effort than others if one wanted to have more. After a while, I fell asleep again.However, I was woken up by Theo’s phone call. “Hello.” I tapped on the answer button in a bleary state. “Rise and shine, lazy little bug.” On the other side of the phone, he spoke in a teasing tone with a happy voice. It seemed that he was in a good mood.“Get up.” It was indeed late. I got out of bed in a hurry. "Hurry up and wash up. Keith is waiting for you downstairs. Come and have your breakfast in the office." I could hear other voices from his side. He was probably busy.“I’ll have breakfast at home.” “I’ll be waiting for you.” He hung up the phone after he said that.I was startled for a

She lifted her head like a proud peacock, looking like she owned the whole world. I could not help but find it ridiculous. "Yes. You're worthy, especially worthy. You'd better keep your Theowy company. I'm going back." In the past, I might have felt inferior and upset, but it did not really matter anymore. I was too lazy to argue with her. I moved aside and was ready to head out. Even though I did not want to go looking for trouble, it did not mean others would leave me alone. When I took a step forward, Cindy stretched her foot out and tripped me. I staggered and failed to regain my footing, causing me to tumble forward. There was nothing around me that I could grab for support. I instinctively reached out to hold onto Cindy, and we both went crashing to the floor. As she was in front of me, she fell in a sitting position with her bottom on the floor. Then, there was a thud. Her head hit the door frame. “Ouch!” Cindy cried out in pain. Her voice was loud, alerting Theo

His handsome eyes darkened slightly. He raised his eyebrows and said, “Is this what you call fine?” There was anger in his tone. “I’m really fine. It doesn’t hurt at all.” I was being stubborn again. I curled my lips and spoke. He did not say anything. He took the cotton swab and dabbed it on the wounds. He was no longer as gentle as before and seemed to deliberately exert more force. It was so painful that I let out a gasp and cried out loud. “Theo Grant! Are you doing it on purpose?”“Didn’t you say that it doesn’t hurt at all?” There was a hint of teasing in his voice. He did not sound angry but his tone was not soft either. However, I was enraged. “You…” I was so furious that I could not say anything. He chuckled. Then, he treated my wounds gently just like how he did before. He even blew on them to relieve the pain.I pursed my lips and said nothing until he was done dressing the wounds.He put the first aid kit back, carried me back to his office, and put me on the s

"Lame." I lowered my head, not wanting to look at him anymore. I thought he had something serious to tell me. I did not expect him to just be bored and tease me. Heidi's working efficiency was consistently good. She had been working with me for the past few years. I seldom had to worry about her, and I felt assured working with her.I was feeling a little sleepy now. I yawned after a while of going through the stack of documents that needed to be signed.“Go inside and take a nap. I’ll help you sign them.” Theo put down his documents and took away the stack in my hands.Theo’s office was the same as the one I had in Nectarine Entertainment. There was a small bedroom in the office. However, even if I chose to sleep here, I probably would have a hard time sleeping with all those people coming in and out of the office. “No thanks.” I shook my head and pulled myself together. However, it was like he did not hear what I said. He put down the documents, lifted his hands, and carried

“Come over here.” Theo’s expression was back to usual. He comfortably leaned on the chair and waved at me.I walked toward him. He pulled me to sit on his lap, then tidied the hair beside my ear. He pressed his face on the back of my neck and said in a lazy tone, "What do you want to eat? I'll ask Keith to buy it."I lifted my head and looked at the time. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon. I did not think that I would sleep for such a long time. That was why my head felt heavy. I said, "I slept too long. I don't feel like eating."He pulled out a drawer and took a bunch of snacks out of it. “Well, then you can have some snacks first. We’ll have dinner at night.” I never knew that a man like him would prepare snacks for me, and they were the snacks that women loved. “I don’t like these. These are all for you,” he said when he saw my confused expression. His tone was slightly stiff.I burst out laughing. I chose a packet of plums, opened it, and ate one. Then, I asked,

Her eyes were gleaming and there was a smile plastered across her face. She looked happy. I could not help but get curious. Who was that lucky man who won Heidi's heart?I gazed at the driver's seat. It was a man in his 30s who looked like a well-mannered guy. He appeared decent. It was a shame that he was too far away, so I could not get a good look at him. Theo’s car stopped beside me while I was deep in thought.After I got in the car and looked up again, the white luxury car was gone. “What caught your attention? You were lost in thought just now.” Theo furrowed his brows and helped me fasten my seat belt. "I just saw someone I know." I pulled back a little and decided to not think about it anymore. Soon, we arrived at the city’s most exclusive Western restaurant. After leaving the car key to the valet attendant, Theo held my hand and we went upstairs. Upstairs, President Sherman and his wife were already waiting at the entrance of the private room. There were two oth

It was well-known that Grant Corporation was very strict with its entry requirements. Every candidate would have to pass a strict interview and written exam. There were several assessments and obstacles during the process. It was so that the remaining candidates at the end were all the strongest and most dependable. For example, someone like Heidi. People would fight to get into Grant Corporation during the recruitment every year. Once you were employed in Grant Corporation, you would not only be getting a well-paid job but it was also a status symbol. Back then when I got into Grant Corporation, I had to go through those assessments as well. The young lady was looking at Theo with excitement. The look of admiration was clear in her eyes. Theo put down his wine glass at a leisurely pace. Then, he helped me get some stew and spoke gently, “Aren’t you hungry? Have some stew first. It’s good.”I lowered my head to take a sip of the stew. It resolved the awkward situation. Then,
