The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2282

Whaldorf City.

Theo was in charge of sending Munchkin back to school, so I returned to the villa first.

I immediately went to the room to see the two children after arriving at the villa.

Fortunately, Caroline and the others had taken good care of them.

Caroline smiled when she saw that I had returned, looking very kind. "The young master and young lady are smiling the moment you returned, Madam."

If they were not too young to travel far, I would also have liked to take them with me.

I looked at Caroline and smiled, my eyes forming crescents. "You’ve been caring for them well, Caroline. They look chubby."

The kids looked sleepy, so I carefully placed them back into the rocker and left the room.

In the study.

I dialed Cole's number, feeling nervous while I waited for him to answer. I clutched the pages of the magazine on the table tightly.

Cole answered after a while.

"Are you back?"

There was a smile in the man's voice.

He seemed to know my itinerary clearly. It was obvious that he asked despite already knowing.

I did not get sidetracked by this. Parting my tightly pursed lips, I said, "Silas Yard."

Cole chuckled through the receiver. "You found out."

"Do you know him?"

I was furious at this point.

He clearly knew everything but refused to tell me directly, insisting on having me go through my own investigation instead. Just what intention did this person have?

Seemingly hearing the anger in my voice, Cole's tone took on a serious edge. "Don't be angry. There’s a reason why I’m not telling you everything directly. Let’s meet up and have a good chat.”

"I’m fine with any time."
