The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1924

Drover shifted his gaze and focused on the lake.

After a while, he continued, "It's okay. We can talk about it when you want to talk about it."

Immediately, a hint of gratitude emerged in my heart.

"Thank you," I said softly but earnestly.

There was no more conversation between us until Marius came back from his walk somewhere. He interjected us. "What are you guys talking about? I wanna listen."

Before I could say anything, Drover replied first, "You won’t even understand it."

Marius pursed his lips. He turned to me and snickered. "Sis Wan, you're the best.

Quick, tell me. What were you guys talking about?"

My mood had improved a lot during the time I was out. I glanced at Marius. "We were talking crap about you. Are you sure you want to know?"

"What? You guys are so mean. You talked crap about me when I wasn't around?

Forget it, I’ll take it as you guys are jealous of me."

I had to say, Marius was really open-minded.

I was indeed jealous, jealous of his optimism and indifference.

Marius looked at his watch and looked at me with a reluctant expression. "It's getting late. Sis Wan, you definitely have to head back now, yeah? I'll really miss you."

Go back?

Where could I go back to?

My eyes darkened. I pursed my lower lip, not knowing how to respond.

Seeing me like this, Marius responded, " Don't tell me you got into a fight with Theo and ran away from home?"

This man was so blunt.
