The Woman From Hell

Hearing me call her that, Delia's expression instantly morphed. "What are you saying? I don't get you."

She looked away like she was deliberately avoiding my gaze.

Don stood where he was, his eyes fixed on me. "Why did you call me here?"

Such innocent eyes.

I smirked and glanced at Don who was calm and collected before looking back at Delia. "To reunite the husband and wife, of course."

Just one sentence delivered a shock through Don and Delia.

Shannon covered her mouth with her hands, her big eyes wide open. "Oh God, what did I just hear?

"Don and Delia are a couple. Wanda, are you sure?"

Just like how Shannon was finding this unfathomable, I also had my doubts when I first found out about this.

However, it was indeed the truth.

Delia was trying her best to hide her panic. I caught her trembling fingertips clutching the corner of her clothes as she still tried to maintain her calm. "Isn't Don one of yours? Why are you pinning him on me? Didn't you send him to Grant Corporation to be an undercover agent? You"

"I haven't even said anything about it yet. How did you know that, Miss Owens?" I narrowed my eyes and smiled at Delia.

Once one's cool was disturbed, even their reason would be compromised.

It was obvious that Delia could no longer keep her calm. She wanted to retort back in a hurry, but her mouth was the leak.

Right after I said that, I turned my

eyes to Delia, who was a mess, my smile deepening. "We know everything about you now, so stop being So stubborn, Nicky. Did you think no one would recognize you after you got surgery to look like Cecilia?

"You have a small scar on your face still. I wonder if you've noticed it yourself?"

The moment I said that, Delia reached her hand out to caress it as I had thought she would. She realized this, and her expression turned vicious. "You lied to me?"

"You started it I didn't dare think in that direction at first, but the way you behaved was just too similar to how you were before. It made me suspicious that you might be Nicky. Nibet confirmed my guess after that. I didn't expect us letting you go back then to be a mistake." Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

I stared at her and shook my head again and again. "My apologies, I realized it too late."

Delia clenched her fists tightly, her entire body trembling. Anger filled her eyes as she looked at me. "Yes

I'm Nicky. I really didn't expect to be fooled a second time. I though& covered my tracks perfectly

"It's because this is the second time that we had to make our act more realistic. We actually went and got ourselves divorced just to gain your trust. How would we be able to reveal your true purpose otherwise?"

I knew very well that Nicky's return this time was by no means limited to getting Theo. Hence, after getting Theo, she tried non-stop to push her idea of getting herself into Grant Corporation forward.

Don came forward and shielded Nicky behind him. "Wanda, don't bully her so intolerably."

"Are you serious? I've been acting along with you guys from the very start." I shrugged my shoulders and laughed lightly.

Theo and I had sent people to tail them ever since the time I met up with Don and Delia when I went to Whaldorf University. Sure enough, they often met one another.

Don was right. He had been married and then divorced. His ex-wife was Nicky. He was willing to protect her and do anything for her. They were childhood sweethearts.

"Besides, she's using you, isn't she?" I looked at Nicky's face behind the man, my smile frozen on the corners of my mouth.

Her eyes went wide as she looked up at me...
