The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 826

I looked helplessly at him. "No. You just need to stay at home and rest for the next few days.”

"Yay!” Munchkin cheered.

He looked a lot more energetic than yesterday, which put me at ease greatly.

The nanny was making lunch, and Munchkin was playing with Snowy in his arms on the carpet in the living room.

I watched them for a moment and got up to go back to my room.

The nanny happened to be walking out of the kitchen. When she saw that I was going upstairs, she quickly asked, "Do you want to have your lunch upstairs, Ma'am?"

I stopped in my tracks and turned around to look at her, saying with a small smile, "I'll come down in a while.”

When I got back to my room, I sat in front of the dressing table and looked at myself in the mirror.

Without realizing it, the hair that I had kept long for several years had already reached my waist. I always liked keeping my hair shoulder-length and short in m y university days. Cecilia said that if someone wanted

to confess to me, I should tell them to wait until my hair got to my waist.

My hair would always be that length. Those who heard my answer when they confessed to me would know what I meant by that.

I laughed when I thought about the past. There were some things that were hilarious in the past yet heartwarming when looked back upon today.

When I heard the door opening, I thought Caroline was here to ask me to go down and have lunch. I turned around and was just about to speak when I saw that it was Theo. I froze.

What we had in the study last night was considered a fight. My heart was torn thinking about how I should face him.

Theo walked up behind me and I turned around to look in the mirror.

His big hands rested on my shoulders and I lowered m y head, falling silent for a very long time before asking, "Why did you come back?"

"Didn't we agree to go visit Susan today?" His gaze was tender, and the icy look in his eyes last night was nonexistent.

If he had not reminded me, I would have forgotten that we had agreed to go visit Susan today.

I pursed my lips and took out a headband from the drawer. I then slowly combed my hair into a bun.

The atmosphere was even more silent, and I grew a little agitated.

I hated arguing with Theo so much because I did not know what to do every time after we fought.

"Do you want to put on makeup?" Theo asked softly.

He was making things less awkward for me. Normally, others would accommodate him, but now that he had put his ego down, I should not just remain silent.

I shook my head. "It's too much trouble."

Having said that, I took a lighter-colored lipstick.

We were not going somewhere grand, so a lipstick should do the trick. Putting on makeup was too timeconsuming, and I had to remove it when I came home too.

When I was done putting on the lipstick, he looked at me in the mirror and said with a smile, "You look great."

I smiled slightly and got up to go to the cloakroom.

When I went downstairs, Caroline had just finished making lunch.

Theo had not eaten yet, but after having just sat down and taken a few bites, his phone rang.

His phone was right beside him and I could see who was calling him after a glance.

It was Keith, so it could only mean that there were urgent matters in the company waiting for him to handle.

Theo picked up the phone and said blandly, "I have to take this."

Having said that, he walked to the door of the dining room and answered the call.
