The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 461

"Let me go!" I wrenched my arm out of his grasp and shoved him hard.

He was standing on the edge of the steps and fell backward after losing his balance when I shoved him. Luckily, he grabbed the banister in time. I stared at him with a blank face as I said, "I'm going downstairs t o get some water."

Theo had nearly fallen down the stairs, but he did not seem the slightest bit flustered. "I'll go get you water. Can you return to the room first?"

I did not give him an answer before turning back to walk into the room.

When Theo returned to the bedroom with a glass of water, I had already changed into my pajamas and climbed into bed.

He handed me the glass of water, but I merely glanced at him without getting up. He did not urge me to get u p and drink the water. Instead, he lay down beside me after placing the glass on the bedside cabinet.

I wanted to move a little farther away to the side, but h e took me into his arms. "Weren't you even the slightest bit worried when I nearly fell down the stairs just now?"

Was I worried?

I was not worried because I knew that his agility would not permit him to fall. Else, I would have never pushed him.

Theo smiled bitterly. "If I had fallen and died, would I not have been worth worrying about compared to the already dead Matthew?"

That question caused anger to once again flare within me.

I began struggling in his arms. "Let me go!"

Theo tightened his arms around me and refused to let go. He pressed his lips to my ear as he questioned, "Do you love Matthew?"

I stopped struggling and glared at him coolly.

"Maybe I should change the way I phrased my question." Theo narrowed his eyes. "If you were given the choice, would you choose me or Matthew?"
