The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2457

"What's the situation? You're just going to let yourself get taken advantage of by that mistress Delia?” Shannon's eyes widened after she heard the entire story from me. Seated in front of me, she reached her hand out to feel the temperature of my forehead. After ascertaining that I was not suffering from a fever, she then said, “Weren’t you and Theo so in love with each other? How can you guys just get divorced like that?”

I lowered my gaze, exhausted. I responded to Shannon lightly, “Why should I continue to pester him since he’s bored of me now?”

Shannon covered her head with an expression of disbelief. “I really don't understand. He was still worried about your safety a few days ago. How did everything change after that trip to Sea City? It's too strange.”

Like Shannon, I did not know what Theo was thinking. Hence, I had no explanation for her doubts.

All of a sudden, Shannon approached me as if she caught the scent of something unusual. “Do you think Theo is still acting?” she asked profoundly.

I shook my head without even thinking about it. “I went to him when he was alone in the middle of the night and his story was the same as during the day. Why did he need to hide it from me if he was acting?”

“Perhaps the potential enemy this time is more dangerous. Maybe he’s keeping you out of it because he doesn't want you to get involved?” Shannon tilted his head as she said this. The more she spoke, the more it sounded possible. “I think this is the case. Theo doesn't look like someone who’d fall in love with someone else. Why don't we test him again?”

My mood changed slightly when Shannon was done speaking. My eyelids lowered as my voice weakened. “Forget it. I already looked for him for verification, and his attitude was no different from when he’s in front of Delia. We just thought too highly of Theo.”

I did not have the courage to face the outcome again. I might be disappointed again if I held onto more hope.

“Delia might have installed a surveillance camera in your house. Theo might have continued acting because he was worried about his facade breaking. We can ask him out. He won’t be pressured then and will probably tell us the truth.”

“Is that so…”

I no longer had any faith, but Shannon’s eyes were still burning. In the next second, she started taking action. She held up my hand and patted it as if consoling me. “Let’s try one last time. You’ll have your answer regardless of the outcome.”

Shannon was not wrong. It would not hurt to try again.
