The Woman From Hell Chapter 91
On the street outside the window, Petra was holding Cindy. The two were talking and laughing as they walked toward the mall from across the street.I wondered how the two of them met each other. Seeing how close they were, I thought they looked just like mother and daughter. However, when I mentioned Xander’s mother previously, Cindy looked as though she did not know anything.However, I was never a nosy person, so I ignored these things and got ready to go home after seeing that it was getting late.“Let’s go?” I asked Xander.He could barely hold himself up, and after beckoning the waiter to pay the bill, he staggered to his feet. He looked like he was about to fall. I hurriedly went over to hold him and asked worriedly, “Can you still walk?”“I’m okay.” He waved and staggered outside. With how much his body was swaying, it was dangerous to leave him be. I had no choice but to step forward and support him with my body as we walked forward.We walked with much difficulty and I w

In a daze, I simply stopped struggling and forced myself to sleep.The next day when I woke up, it was already sunrise and Miss Woods reheated my cold breakfast for me.I looked around me but did not see Theo.“Mr. Grant went to the company early this morning and told me not to wake you up. He wanted you to sleep more. You would want to sleep more when you’re pregnant. When I was pregnant, I would sleep for 15 hours a day and still thought it was not enough…”Miss Woods started yammering about her previous pregnancy. They said that a person loved to nag when they grew older and loved talking about their younger days. Time was unforgiving. Miss Woods was slowly growing old too.After having breakfast, I went to the company. Heidi told me that the director had confirmed that everyone would be leaving tomorrow, which meant that I would have to go on a business trip tomorrow.“Should I come with you, Ms. Wanda?” Heidi asked, looking at me.“It’s fine. Stay here and prepare the first

“I just wanted to tell you that we should probably get ready to leave for the flight at five o’clock.” Xander sounded somewhat wronged.“Five o’clock?” Heidi had told me that we were going on the trip today but I forgot to ask her the specific time.I quickly got up. It would take half an hour to get to the airport from here. I might be late if I did not hurry.“You should go and wash up first. I’ll come and pick you up.” Xander immediately hung up the phone after saying those words as though he was afraid of being scolded by me again.My head was dizzy and I felt very uncomfortable. However, I still forced myself to get out of bed and wash up.I finished packing in no time and went out. Xander was already waiting outside the door.We drove all the way to the airport. Thankfully, we were not late. However, as I did not have enough sleep, I felt extremely uncomfortable and dry-heaved for a long time before I finally felt a little better.“Where are the rest?” When we were about t

A person’s success would not be accidental. Take Xander, for example. In the eyes of the media, he was an uninhibited man, which gave others the impression that he was careless and had a lack of purpose in life. No one knew that behind closed doors, he was actually a hardworking and considerate man.I did not speak more and took the initiative to sit at the farthest end of the sofa. Scripts were supposed to be kept confidential, so I avoided looking at them.Xander stood up and stretched himself before lying on the couch in exhaustion.“Why don’t you go and have some rest first? I’ll call you when the director is here.” I could not bear seeing him like this.“It’s okay. I’ll just take a nap. My friends are treating us to dinner tonight. Let’s go and cadge a good meal,” he said with his eyes closed.“What if the director and crew arrive?” Xander had mentioned that they were taking the flight at night so they must be arriving any time soon.“They have things to do today so they’ll

I put my phone away and saw Xander sitting there in a daze. I asked, “Aren’t we going for dinner? Are you going to meet your old classmates like that?”In a day, not only had he grown a stubble but his hair was also unkempt from just having woken up. I wondered what his fans would think of him when they saw how untidy he looked.Upon being reminded, he got up to go to the bathroom and quickly came out looking like the same shining star he had always been.It was important to dress up regardless of whether one was a man or woman.I walked out of the hotel with Xander and hailed a cab to a nearby estate, where there were separate cabins. Each of them was spaced far apart with maximum privacy.His former classmates were pretty considerate people as they had chosen this place to eat so the fans would not discover them.I thought this was a reunion at first and there would be a lot of people, but it turned out that there were only three. Xander introduced us to each other. Only then d

“I don’t think so. He’s not awake yet because he’s still drunk. As for the specifics, I can only tell you when he wakes up tomorrow.” The doctor left after saying that.The nurse came in and hooked up a drip for Xander. It seemed that I could only spend the night in the hospital.The next morning, Xander finally woke up.“How do you feel? Does your head hurt? Do you know who I am?” I immediately asked, afraid that he would lose his memory after a fall just like in the movies.He looked around him first, then slowly turned to me. There was a strange look in his eyes. He asked in a daze, “Where am I? Who are you? Why am I here?”No way, did he really lose his memory? I stepped back, frightened out of my wits. My tears started falling uncontrollably.After a very long time, Xander laughed and said, “Alright, alright. You can’t even take a small scare, huh? Why do you cry so easily? Weren’t you really tough when you pushed me last night?”It turned out that this idiot was only trick

For the rest of the time, I was on tenterhooks and could only laugh at everyone’s jokes half-heartedly. I only breathed a sigh of relief when Mason sent me a text: [She’s back in the hotel.]I called Cecilia but her phone was off. She had probably fallen asleep. She would normally sleep when she was drunk.As we had to work the next day, dinner ended early. I slept as soon as I got back to the hotel room, mainly because I did not rest well in the hospital last night. Besides, Dr. Lynch’s medication was effective, so I had been sleeping very well the past few days.I slept through the night. The next morning, Xander knocked on my door and said that he wanted to take me for breakfast on an island.I did not understand why he had to make breakfast seem so sophisticated and was also surprised that there was actually a place called ‘Breakfast Island’. It was said to be an island dedicated to the world’s various special breakfasts. One could only get there with a boat.I gave in. How co

Looking closely at the architectural style, it did reflect Petra’s style a lot. This woman was truly capable. Not only that, but she had such a great eye for investment too. It was no wonder she was able to squeeze into the rankings of the top three richest.Speaking of Petra, I could not help but recall the topic about her daughter during dinner last time. I asked, “Your mother has been searching for her daughter, right? How is it going?”“I don’t know. That’s her daughter. It has nothing to do with me.” Xander’s eyes narrowed slightly. He was seemingly reluctant to talk about this. I zipped my mouth tactfully. Since ancient times, there would always be plenty of rumors about aristocratic families, and the Nietzsches were not spared. The speedboat quickly arrived at Breakfast Island. Xander asked me what I wanted to have and I casually said Japanese food. There was no way I was going to come this far to have hotdogs and milk, right? Therefore, he brought me to a small building wit
