The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1426

I looked around and found that my surroundings were pitch-black.

There were few street lights around. If it were not for the light on my cell phone, we might have to grope our way in the dark.

The prosperity and poverty of a city were directly proportional to each other. Rich people could become rich to an unimaginable degree, while poor people could be poor to an unthinkable degree.

After walking a stretch of road with Theo, we realized in hindsight that we seemed to have forgotten which direction the couple went in.

I fished out my phone and planned to give Amelia’s mother a call, but before the call could connect, we heard a series of commotions not far from us.

The commotion came from behind a slightly old building. Theo lit the way with the flash on his phone. There was a path in front of us.

It was especially narrow, and only one person could pass at a time.

Theo exhorted, "Follow me and watch where you step"

I nodded and crossed the path behind him slowly.

After walking out of the path, we saw a small courtyard that was only a dozen square feet with a lot of things scattered around.

Theo shone a light on it and saw that the ground in the yard was full of basic household items.

There were old pots and pans, as well as clothes and other miscellaneous things.

"Old useless thing! Your junk has been sitting here for free for months. You should thank me for not collecting storage fees from you, yet you're here asking me for money? I've never seen someone as shameless as you. Take your junk and get lost. Don’t stand in my way!" a middle-aged woman screamed.
