The Woman From Hell

“My mother told me that having an abortion is very harmful. You need to recuperate well. If your body

does not recover properly, it will be hard for you t o get pregnant in the future. You should rest more,”

Heidi said as she looked at me. She seemed slightly worried.

“I am fine right now, am I not? Do not worry. I know what I am doing. I will be alright.

It was not an abortion. I could not stay here too long as my belly would eventually show. If I did not

settle this matter and leave as quickly as possible,

people would find out about my pregnancy sooner or later.

“Alright. Anyway, please pay attention t o your health.” Heidi did not want to

say much anymore. After putting down my things, she left in a hurry. It seemed like she had something

urgent to attend to.

After Heidi left, I was all alone in the large villa once again. I walked into my bedroom and turned on my

computer, There was nothing much for me to do at home, so I started to look online for a place to stay

in Rosella City

Time passed quickly, and it was soon eight o’clock at night. I took out the bread that Heidi had bought

for me from the fridge and warmed a cup of milk for dinner.

I received a call from Cecilia out of the blue.

I answered the call. Before I could say anything, Cecilia’s angry voice could be heard from the other

end of the line. Wanda Lane, do you want to die? How dare you abort your child?”

I was stunned. “How did you know?

Only a few people knew that I had gotten an abortion, and none of thos people had anything to do with

Cecili. How did she find out about it?

“How could I not know about it? Do yo still see me as your best friend? Hov dare you hide such

important tiews from me?!” Cecilia was enraged. Sh started reprimanding me incessantl

This woman would never stop talkin when she was angry. I could not defen myself at all. I did not dare

to say anything, so I simply held my phon and just listened to her nagging.

“Why are you not saying anything? She asked me in a heavy tone. After considerable amount of time,

she ha finally finished venting her anger on

“You are teaching me a lesson right

now, are you not? I am sorry, my dear. I did not mean to hide it from you. I was mainly afraid that you

would be worried. I wanted to tell you after two days,” I apologized to her immediately

That is not the point. Of course, I would be worried. If I did not worry Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

about you, who else would? I do not object to your choice of getting an abortion. Plus, there is nothing

to miss about Theo’s baby. However, it was still surgery. What if something happened 1 O you while

you were alone?

My heart was warm, knowing that she was worried about me. What else would I need if I already had a

best friend like her in my life?

“Do not worry. Heidi has been looking after me these few days. I am recovering well.” After a short

pause, I said, “Cecilia, shall we go to Rosella City?”

I decided not to tell her about the child for the time being because I did not want her to keep worrying

about me. I did not risk Theo sensing that something was off.

“We can go wherever you want. Just tell me when beforehand.” Cecilia waso extremely accepting

about leaving. For years, she had been preparing herself to leave this place at any moment.

We both chatted for a while. I was about to hang up when Cecelia said, “Come over and fetch your

man back. My friend told me that he has been getting wasted in the bar for a few days now.”

“Theo Grant?” I was stunned.

“Do you have another man?” Cecilia asked irritatedly.

Why was Theo at a bar? I thought that h e had been at Cindy’s place for the past few days.

I asked Cecilia for the address. I grabbed my car keys, and left the house.

The bar owned by Cecilia’s friend was not far away from her milk tea shop. I saw Cecilia standing at

the entrance while waiting for me from a distance

away.

“He is inside and completely knocked

“Why did he come here?” It was not a big bar. It was plainly decorated and looked just like an ordinary

bar. To my knowledge, Theo would not come to a place like this.

“How would I know? My friend called to tell me that Theo wanted me to come over. After that, Theo told

me that you had gotten an abortion. I wanted to ask him about the details, but he passed out from the

alcohol.”

Cecilia and I chatted as we walked, and

shortly after, we reached the room in the bar.

The room was a complete mess. There were bottles of red wine, white wine, and beer on the table and

scattered everywhere on the ground in the room

I frowned. How much did Theo drink?

Theo was lying on the sofa. His clothes were wrinkled, and his hair was in a mess. There was stubble

on his handsome face. He looked like a completely different person instead of his usual cold and

arrogant self.
