The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2196

I told Theo everything Cole said during the day that evening. "How much of what Cole said do you think is the truth?"

It was not that I did not believe him, but the enthusiasm I felt from him making the special trip to tell me about the investigation and not even asking about other things made me nervous.

After listening to my recount, Theo also seemed to fall deep in thought. He rubbed his chin and frowned unconsciously. "What he said could be connected. I’ve also heard about the three major families in Whaldorf City. We’re not locals, however, so we don’t know much about the situation back then. If the truth is being covered up deliberately, we’ll get false news no matter how we investigate. What Cole said might be the truth, but it does not mean that we can believe it. Let’s take it with a grain of salt.”

I did not expect things to be so complicated.

I sighed and lay down. "I just want to know who my parents are. I never thought things would become so complicated."

"If Sandra really has something to do with the Yards, then your identity must be extraordinary, and trouble might follow if it’s revealed." Although Theo was speaking in a calm manner, his tone was low. He was probably worried about what would happen.

I looked at Theo and caught a glimpse of his handsome, furrowed brows. I stretched out my hand to rub the creases away. "Oh, don't think about it so much. I might just be an ordinary orphan who was discovered by my adoptive mother and adopted because she couldn’t bear to leave me suffering outside. Things might not be as unusual as you think."

Theo embraced me as if he wanted to fuse me into him. “I hope you’re just an ordinary person. I don’t want any trouble coming up our door again. I hope that the days to come will be stable and peaceful."

"Why are you so emotional all of a sudden, President Grant? How unlike you." I raised my head from his arms and met his affectionate eyes.

He tapped my nose with a doting expression on his face. "Meeting you has made me indecisive."

"You can’t really blame this on me."

"It's you."

"No, no."

"It's you."
