The Woman From Hell

Chapter 2324



"Huh? Why did you two get divorced?" I was so surprised that I could not help but express my thoughts.

I realized how presumptuous my question was after I blurted it out and saw Don pause for a moment.

"It's okay if you don't want to talk about it."

I pursed my lips, panicking internally. Why did I run my mouth? What was I going to do if I poked someone's sore spot?!

Don gently replied, "No, it was just too sudden that I hadn't processed it yet. It's not something to hide. We got divorced because I didn't agree with my ex-wife's personality."

Hearing him answer so generously, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Theo's figure suddenly appeared in my mind.

Recalling how he had been behaving so strangely these few days, I thought of asking Don for advice but felt that it was a little inappropriate.

Just when I was hesitating, Don suddenly said, "Miss Lane, do you want to say something?"

As expected of a professor, he was really sharp!

I might as well voice out whatever I was thinking just now.

Don listened to what I had to say and pondered for a moment before he began to break down the situation with me. "There may be two reasons why your husband is behaving strangely. One is that he might be facing some problems at work. Two, he might be emotionally— '

"What's wrong with him emotionally?" I looked up confused when I sensed Don pausing.

Don avoided my gaze but replied softly, "He might have done something to disappoint you..."

I felt a strike of hurt in my heart for a moment and began faintly panicking.

Don might have sensed that my emotions were in disarray and reassured me, "This is just a hypothesis. You don't need to pay too much heed. It might also be because of a problem at work. You should go back and ask him carefully."

I simply nodded. In the end, I did not know how I even drove my repaired car home. My mind seemed all muddled.

After parking the car behind the villa, I opened the door and entered the house, feeling a little disappointed.

Theo was not back yet.

My flustered emotions reappeared. I bit my lip, took out my cell phone, and called him.

The call automatically disconnected after ringing for some time. Theo was not answering.

I looked at the phone blankly, swiping through the screen over and over again, feeling dull.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

I waited and waited. It was already dark, but he still had not returned.

At some point, I fell asleep and woke up again when I heard noises from the door. I checked the time on my phone. It was already two o'clock in the morning. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Two figures appeared at the door. They were Theo and Keith.

I took two steps forward and was hit with a strong stench of alcohol. It was coming off Theo.

He was being supported by Keith, who was staggering.

"Madam." Alook of surprise flashed through Keith's eyes. He was

"What's going on here? How did he end up drinking so much?" I asked.

"President Grant attended a social event," Keith answered truthfully.

Keith placed him on the sofa and said to me, "Madam, I'll take my leave first."

I nodded, my eyes falling on Theo's flushed, handsome face.

After Keith left, I helped Theo up and went upstairs. I felt weird deep down.

My thoughts were somewhat slow. Theo had never gotten drunk when he went out socializing in the past.
