The Woman From Hell

Chapter 194

Pulling my thoughts back, I picked up the phone and saw that it was from Cecilia.

I quickly answered the phone. "Cecilia! Have you arrived? Where are you staying?"

"I arrived a long time ago and found a homestay. It's pretty nice here. Don’t worry about me. Theo must've come and picked you up, right? You guys must’ve made up, huh?" Cecilia said, sounding relieved.

"You told him to come and pick me up?" I was stunned. I recalled seeing Theo's car and thought it was merely a coincidence, yet who would have thought...

"I didn’t. I just told him that you're going back to Salt City today and he asked me about your train number and time. It’s obvious what he wanted to do!"

I held my forehead and thought about Tyler's deliberate actions. It was no wonder Theo was mad.

Seeing that I did not say a word, Cecilia continued, "I know you still care about him, Wanda. Since you've made the decision to go back, let go of the past and spend the rest of your life with him in harmony. Talk t o him. Tell him what you want and what you care about. It'll only do you more harm than good when you

bottle up your feelings like that.”

I understood this, but I think I had messed things up again. I sighed. "I may have messed things up again. W e fought and he left in anger."

"I don't know what to say anymore. You can't let go of him when you're apart yet are always fighting with each other when you're together. Can’t you just sit down and have a proper talk for once?" Cecilia was speechless.

She was right. It was all my fault, actually. I liked to bottle up my feelings and thought he understood me well. However, that did not seem to be the case as the barrier between us only grew wider and wider.

"Cecilia, we can never talk it out. This is a dead knot that can't be untied. He can't let go of Cindy, while I can’t bring myself to ignore it. As soon as we touch on this subject, we'd both get unhappy and all sorts of problems will crop up." Take Tyler, for example.

"If that’s the case, make a firm decision to leave him and make him sign the divorce papers. You leave and return him his freedom. Both of you will have nothing to do with each other in the future."

I sighed. Seeing how things were right now as well as his attitude, it seemed quite impossible to achieve this.

I leaned back on the bed and sighed. "I met Tyler on the train today and he pulled me out of the station with him. We bumped into Theo and now he thinks that Tyler and I have something going on between us.

He won't agree to the divorce." "Is Tyler sick in the head? Why is he everywhere?" Cecilia cursed furiously.

He certainly was. He was definitely doing it on purpose.

"I feel sorry for you. What's the plan now? Are you planning to fight forever?" Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"One step at a time, I guess. My belly is getting bigger and bigger. I can't go anywhere. We'll see what happens after the baby is born." I was really helpless too.

Like Tyler said, I was alone in this world and only this child could change my situation. The child was my hope and only salvation.

After talking to Cecilia, my mood lifted considerably.

I hung up the call and got out of bed to go downstairs.

Miss Woods was currently making dinner in the kitchen. Seeing that I had come downstairs, she beckoned me to take a seat and served a bowl of chicken soup. "Mr. Grant ordered me to make this soup first thing in the morning as a tonic for you. It's been simmering the whole day and is perfect now. Drink some. The food will be done very soon."

I ate a lot for lunch when I was with Tyler, so I had no appetite at all. However, I still picked up the bowl and took a sip. "Thank you, Miss Woods. It tastes really good."

"Right? Mr. Grant is really thoughtful. He asked me to simmer it from earlier on." Miss Woods looked at me with a smile. "Did you two fight again just now?"

I nodded without a word. Theo had slammed the door i n anger and left. It was so loud, so it came as no surprise that Miss Woods was alerted about it.

She stroked my hand and said, "Say, you both miss each other when you're apart but bicker when you're together. Relationships need to be managed. You need to stop quarreling because that'll only hurt your relationship."

I did not say a word. It was true that we bickered every time we met, but did we miss each other when w e were apart? I did not think anyone would miss me!

Miss Woods noticed how quiet I was and sat down. "M r. Grant lost his parents when he was a child, so he grew up to be a dull and unsociable man. He likes to keep things to himself and is blunt with his words. He's a man who doesn't voice out his intentions. Just bear with him."

She was speaking the truth. His kindness for Cindy was shown in his actions, never in his words.
