The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1977

While wiping the windows, I looked like I was already used to the actions.

I did this every day back in the restaurant in Zenon. It was actually quite easy.

I still needed a ladder to reach the top. I climbed up with ease when Hattie came to supervise me again. "What are you wiping? Go to the left. It's dirty over there."

In her eyes, it was considered dirty as long as she saw any traces.

I followed her words and moved to the left. After a while, she asked me to move to the right and I did.

Swapping sides on the ladder was dangerous. My back was also sore, making my movements extraordinarily sluggish.

Hattie noticed my slow movements, and her expression sank again. "You’re tired just from wiping windows? We used to be able to go up the mountains to chop wood while we were pregnant. These are all trivial things. The new generation is really getting weaker.”

"I hope your daughter will be instructed like this when she’s pregnant," I replied without hesitation.

She was not angry, but her tone changed and she responded to me in a very soft tone, "My Nicky will live a life of happiness. Theo's parents aren’t around. If she’s pregnant, I can even go to the villa to take care of her in person. Between the two of you, one of you is heaven while the other is the earth. How can you two be compared?"

I wiped the windows and chuckled a few times. "She might be heaven, but her feet are touching the ground these days. Don't you know? Your daughter and Theo still sleep separately. It's too early for you to be able to embrace your grandson.”

I thought this would make Hattie angry, but I did not expect her not to care. "Nicky has her own plans. I’ll be able to embrace my grandson sooner or later. You only have to clean the windows now. Hurry up and stop talking nonsense. Right! To the right. It’s filthy.”

At her instructions, I wiped the windows several times, but she did not seem to be very satisfied. Instead, she was even tired. “Looking at you here makes me tired. You can go clean the restrooms after you’re done wiping them one more time. I’m going back to rest."

After Hattie said this, she left while gripping her shoulders. I slowly came down the ladder. She accidentally bumped into the ladder when she passed me and the whole ladder started to shake. I gripped both sides but could not get it to stabilize and my body tilted downward.
