The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1471

"Theo Grant!" I turned around abruptly and glared angrily at him.

Munchkin's incident had annoyed me enough. I had no time to coax another person.

Though seeing the look on his face, I could not bring myself to be mad at him and could only sigh. "I'll handle this myself. You don't have to worry. Besides, Chief Royce said that if family members are there, they're not allowed to interfere with their business. I'll just go and have a look. You can't be of any help if you go, so stay here and accompany Mom and Dad."

I admitted that I was lying because I simply could not bring myself to tell him that I did not wish to see him. I was also worried that saying these things would make me spend more time explaining to him.

I did not want to do that anymore.

"Why aren't you the one staying back to take care of Mom and Dad, then? Besides, I believe Chief Royce reminded you that you're in no condition to go with them."

Theo seemed to have found a hold on me. His tone sounded a little angry.

"So what? I’m Munchkin's guardian. I have the right to go."

I started rummaging the closet for my coat.

Chief Royce merely said to keep in touch but did not restrict my freedom.

I had the right to go anywhere I wanted. Even the police officers could not stop me. Surely not Theo either.

Theo sneered behind me. "You're right, but don't forget that you're not his biological mother either."

"What do you mean by that?” I turned around and glared at Theo with unquenchable anger in my eyes.

"Wanda, you’re only so concerned because of the relationship Munchkin and I share, isn’t it? I'm not his biological father, but don’t ever forget that you're not his biological mother either."

He said the first half of the sentence mockingly, but now, it sounded more like a reminder.

"You're only so concerned and angry now because of my identity, right? If I were related to Munchkin by blood, do you think you'd exclude me to this extent?"
