The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1941

While I was contemplating, Marius glanced at me. He suddenly approached and said, "Hey, Sis Wan, I heard from Drover that Theo came back today." He winked at me after he said that as if he was eager to see my reaction.

Admittedly, I was stunned for a few seconds after he said that, but after that, I calmed myself. I grabbed a pillow and hugged it to my chest before replying, "What about it?"

Seeing my attitude, Marius looked a little disappointed. He opened his mouth and said, "I thought I’d catch you at a loss. I didn't expect this."

I found his words amusing and smirked. “Why should I be at a loss? What should I be at a loss for?"

"Don't you want him to come and pick you up?" Marius prodded me with a vicious smile.

I did look forward to it, but I knew he would not come.

Shaking my head, I turned to him. "No expectations, no disappointment."

Marius pursed his lips. Pouting, he nodded thoughtfully. "Okay, I understand."

I suddenly thought of the first thing he said just now and asked, "How did Drover know that he’s back today? Did they have a meeting?"

"Yeah, I think something went wrong with the project and since he was in a hurry to discuss it, Drover went to Grant Corporation to meet with Nicky early this morning," Marius said lightly as if it was not a big deal.

An issue with the project?

I thought back to the call Drover accepted in the living room yesterday. His tone had been different from usual. It seemed that something had really gone wrong.

Seeing Marius' indifferent expression, I could not help but ask, "Are you his friend or not? Why aren’t you worried at all when something has gone wrong with his project?"
