The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 104

I was a little embarrassed and gently pulled back my foot. I coughed lightly and said, "It’s not that bad now."

Miss Woods had lied about my feet being swollen. Besides, he had never cared or looked closely at my feet before. To be honest, my feet had always been fleshy, so I felt a little uncomfortable about lying to him.

He did not say anything. He just turned around and went out the door. I thought he had seen through my lie and was mad, so I sighed. It seemed that pretending to be sick was not for me. I could not do it a s naturally as Cindy could.

However, he soon came back with a box of ice cubes. H e carefully wrapped the ice with a towel and placed it on my feet.

It turned out that he was getting me an ice pack. I felt a little guilty, so I got up from the bed and said, "I can d o it myself."

"Don't move." His voice was cold and he had a straight look on his face. He would not accept a refusal. After h e said that, he placed my feet in his arms to prevent m e from moving them around.

It was very awkward for me to have my feet held like

this, so I said, "I'm not used to it. I'll do it myself."

He did not say anything nor did he let go. The expression on his face remained cold.

From dinner to now, although he did not seem angry and even went on a walk with me, he was still giving me the cold shoulder. He never said more than five words at once.

I felt a bit depressed and said, "Theo, if you’re still angry, you can scold me. If it doesn't help, you can even beat me up. But don't be so cold to me. And don’t give me that look. You'll scare the baby in my stomach!”

He glanced at my stomach which still looked quite flat and said coldly, "Are you sure the baby can see me?"

I hastily replied, "Yes, of course. Even if not physically, the baby can sense it. Like the saying about the father and child being connected. If you're unhappy and ignore me, the baby will be sad."

"You should've done something that would make me happy and want to talk to you, then." His voice was still cold, but his tone sounded much lighter.

"I know. It was my fault, and I could’ve caused a lot of damage to the company. If you’re unhappy, you can lash out at me. Just don't leave me hanging."
