The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 810

I did not know that he was coming back. The company would soon go on annual holiday, and with the scandals affecting Grant Corporation still around, h e had been extraordinarily busy these days.

He walked up to me and looked me up and down before saying in satisfaction, "You look exceptionally beautiful.”

I pursed my lips. "Thank you."

That was not the point, though!

I sighed and held his hand, saying softly, "I need to rush to the wedding venue. You've been so busy lately, I don't think you have the time to go with me, right?"

As I knew that he would be very busy lately, I did not bring up the topic of attending the wedding together.

"I have time, of course." Theo moved his lips closer to my ear. The breath he exhaled was extremely teasing. "I don’t want other men to hit on you in places I can't

When I heard footsteps behind me, I figured the makeup artist and her assistants were coming downstairs. My face blushed, and I pushed Theo away. "No one will hit on me." "Why not?" Theo raised his eyebrows. "My Wanda is so

gorgeous."

I quickly covered his mouth. "Stop it."

I looked back at the makeup artist and assistants. I felt a little awkward. "I'm in a hurry to go to the wedding venue, so I’ll not see you out."

The makeup artist nodded with a smile. "Have a nice day, Miss Lane."

When the trio walked out, one of the assistants whispered, "I thought it was just rumors, but it turns out that Miss Lane really is Mr. Grant's wife-"

"Shh.” The makeup artist shushed her immediately.

When they had walked out of the villa, I looked at Theo and said in a helpless tone, "I don’t want to delay your work."

He raised his hand and fixed the plush shawl on my shoulder as if he was worried that I would be cold. "I have time to accompany my wife to the wedding banquet.”
