The Woman From Hell

Chapter 92

In a daze, I simply stopped struggling and forced myself to sleep.

The next day when I woke up, it was already sunrise and Miss Woods reheated my cold breakfast for me.

I looked around me but did not see Theo.

"Mr. Grant went to the company early this morning and told me not to wake you up. He wanted you to sleep more. You would want to sleep more when you’re pregnant. When I was pregnant, I would sleep for 15 hours a day and still thought it was not enough 99

Miss Woods started yammering about her previous pregnancy. They said that a person loved to nag when they grew older and loved talking about their younger days. Time was unforgiving. Miss Woods was slowly growing old too.

After having breakfast, I went to the company. Heidi told me that the director had confirmed that everyone would be leaving tomorrow, which meant that I would have to go on a business trip tomorrow.

"Should I come with you, Ms. Wanda?" Heidi asked, looking at me.

"It’s fine. Stay here and prepare the first draft of the

acquisition report. I'll come back and revise it." There were too many people in the director’s team and my presence was already considered redundant, let alone Heidi’s.

I bustled about with work the entire morning and when noon approached, I received a text from Mason t o meet at lunch. He wanted me to take the medicine h e had prescribed for me.

I agreed since I needed the medicine for my business trip.

When I arrived at the address Mason sent me, I learned that Theo was here too. However, he ignored m e and sat there without speaking. His entire being was engulfed in a dark and gloomy aura.

I ignored him too and sat down at the table across from him. I said to Mason, "Dr. Lynch, I’m going on a business trip for a few days. Will it be okay to bring these medicines with me?"

Theo’s gaze darkened but he still did not say a word.

"You're going on a business trip? Is it for a shoot?" Mason asked.

"Yeah, it’s an outdoor shoot so I have to go along." Theo took a bowl of soup from the waiter and placed it in front of me. I did not refuse and took a sip. It tasted pretty sour and quite suited my taste. It seemed to have been specially ordered for me.

"Where will the shoot take place?” Mason asked while placing some refreshing dishes in front of me. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Theo's already grumpy expression grew even darker and sullen. The chilly aura exuded from his body caused the air pressure around us to drop.

"The South Sea," I responded succinctly.

"You have issues with digestion and sleep, so remember to take this medication with you. Take it with water every morning and evening. It'll relieve your symptoms.” Mason darted a glance at Theo and said with a smile, "Don't worry, this will not affect the fetus in any way."

"Thanks." I lowered my head to finish the soup, saying no more.

As Theo had a gloomy countenance the whole time, I was not able to eat my meal peacefully. I took a few bites before making an excuse and leaving.

Nothing much happened in the afternoon. I spoke to Cecilia on WhatsApp for a moment and told her that I had already seen a doctor and received my insomnia prescription. Only then did she stop nagging me and promised to come back earlier.

Theo was not around at night. Miss Woods made a table full of nutritious food again. I felt like I had turned into a pig recently because I was eating all the time.

After dinner, I went back to my room and sat alone on the balcony, gazing at the moon. There was a flash of inexplicable disappointment. My heart felt empty but I did not know why.

It was normal for Theo not to be home and I should have long gotten used to it. However, I was constantly worried about losing him and it made me really tired.

I sat on the balcony the whole night. Seeing that it was nearly two in the morning and thinking that I would still have to go on a business trip tomorrow, I forced myself to lay down.

When I finally drifted off to sleep, my phone started ringing. I rejected it irritably but the other party refused to give up and called again.

I rejected it again but the other party gave me another call. This happened a few times, which made me tremendously irritated. I finally picked up the phone and screamed in a fit of anger, "You'd better have something urgent to say or I'll f*cking teach you a lesson.”

The other party was clearly startled to hear me curse and did not speak for a very long time.

"Speak," I ordered impatiently.

"It's me, Wandy. What happened to you? Why do you sound so terrifying?” Xander's cautious voice rang out.

Xander? I checked the time. It was four in the morning. Was this guy sick in the head?

"It's you? What’s up?” My voice was still full of indignation.
