The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2631

We first brought Shannon to Marius' apartment. He then carried her into the guest room and lay her down.

I looked at her drunken appearance before covering her with a blanket.

"Don't worry. She’ll be with me. I’ll take good care of her," Marius said gently beside me.

I frowned and sighed. "Something must have happened. I can’t get in touch with Jordan either. They probably got into an argument.”

"It's normal for couples to quarrel. They’ll eventually make up. I'll ask Shannon about it when she wakes up tomorrow. Don't worry," Marius comforted me.

"I'll stay with her tonight. Go and rest."

I could not leave Shannon alone considering the state she was in.

Marius did not try to persuade me, but my phone rang the next second. "Theo, I’ll be—"

"Are you coming back soon? The children have been crying. They’re probably looking for you.”

Theo's words threw a wrench in my plan. I glanced at Marius and then at Shannon, feeling troubled. "But I..."

"What's wrong?" Theo's voice sounded in my ears.

Marius mouthed to me, "It's okay, I'm here."

Nodding, I finally replied to Theo, "I'm coming home now.”

I ended the call and said to Marius apologetically, “I'm sorry. The children are crying. I’ll have to trouble you with Shannon. Remember to call me if anything happens.”

"Okay, Sis Wan. Don’t worry and go home. I'll be here."

Marius' words put me at ease, but Shannon still worried me. I looked at her as she lay on the bed, my gaze complicated.

"Don't worry, I won't bully Shannon," Marius's half-joking tone reverberated through the room.
