The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 65

Chapter 65

Whatever it is, we can talk about it tomorrow.” He caressed my back gently i n an attempt to coax me back to sleep.

“No, this is urgent, I need to ask you about it tonight.” I shook his arms fervently.

He pecked me on the forehead, his eyes still closed. “Okay, then tell me. I’m listening.”

Cecilia was accused of drunk driving and a hit-and-run, but it’s all a setup! I’m begging you, can you help her, please?”

He shuddered a little and slowly let go of my arms. When he opened his eyes, they were icy cold. Theo asked me coldly, “Is this why you came home tonight?”

I felt timid as his icy stare bored into me intently. I wanted to deny it, but I could not find the right words to say.

“Was that why you initiated things with me tonight?” His voice was cold, a clear bloodlust in his tone. “Wanda Lane, do

you think that I’m that revolting? So you had no reaction at all, but you had to force yourself to please me?”

I shook my head quickly, answering hastily, “No… it’s nothing like that…”

I could admit that I had come back for Cecilia, but I had not initiated anything with him just to get what I wanted. I just wanted him to not have to hold himself back so much…

Despite that, I knew that to him, whatever I said would just sound like me trying to defend myself. I kept quiet and begged in a soft voice, “Theo, please, I beg of you, please help me. I’ve only got Cecilia, she’s my only family. I can’t let anything happen to her.”

Your only family? Wanda Lane, you really constantly change the impression I have of you.” Theo scoffed, his tone bone -chilling

I knew he was furious. He was angry about what he thought I had done to try t o get what I wanted, and he was also angry that I had said things that hurt him.

However, I was telling him the truth. He was the only person whom I could seek help from

I ignored the iciness he was emitting and his bulging, angry eyes. I apologized profusely, a lump in my throat. “I’m Sorry, I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean for my actions to come off like that.”

Theo looked at me apathetically, the looki ni his eyes sharp and unfamiliar. I instantly felt the hair on my body stand u p from the coldness that he exuded.
