The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1473

"Who exactly are you?" My tone was starting to sound hostile.

The person on the other end of the phone chuckled and said, "You're really forgetful, Mrs. Grant. Didn’t you already read my bone marrow match report earlier?"

My pupils instantly widened. Was this perhaps Alex Hodds?

Why did he give me a call?

"Where are you? Is Munchkin with you?"

"Slow down, Mrs. Grant. You’re going to frighten me like that." The other party started putting on a show, and even his speech was leisurely slow.

"I know you must have a lot to ask me right now. I happen to have things to ask you too. Why don't we find a time to meet up and I'll answer your questions slowly?"

My heart was pounding. "I'm not in Sea City right now."

"What a coincidence. Me neither.” The other party's reply surprised me.

"That was just a rumor. I was trying to keep idle people busy so that they won't interrupt our first meeting."

It seemed like he had planned everything in advance.

I clenched my fists. Alex was much more complicated than I thought. He was able to fool even the police. It seemed like the police today were not of much use anymore.

I hesitated for a few seconds. "Time and venue.

"I like how straightforward you are, Mrs. Grant."

His compliments did not interest me the slightest.

"Two o'clock. Top floor cafe in Dazzling Tower. TH be waiting." He hung up the phone after saying that.

Dazzling Tower was a famous high-rise building in the city. One could get a bird's eye view of the scenery from the top floor.
