The Woman From Hell

As soon as I said those words, everyone was surprised. Then, the audience broke into applause, and Sandy's fans began screaming fervently.

I guess only I was capable of announcing a surprise brand ambassador like that.

I did not inform anyone about this prior because I planned to throw Newlight Media off guard and offer them no reason to oppose. Logically speaking, anyone would think that they were trying to become the spokesperson seeing how they had come to participate in the competition.

However, they did not win first place, hence becoming the spokesperson was practically impossible now.

Even so, Grant Corporation kept old friendships in mind and created the brand ambassador title. In everyone's opinion, that was the greatest show of sincerity and love toward Sandy and Newlight Media. They had no reason to not accept it or find fault with the decision.

This matter was thus concluded. Initially, I was still quite worried that the kidnappers would give me trouble again, but they did not appear even after the competition ended. Thus, I felt less anxious about it now.

The next step was to make arrangements for the advertisement shooting. Due to time constraints, all the employees worked overtime to catch up with the process in order to start early.

Cecilia’s milk tea store had already been sold off. She said that she had been working tirelessly for many years, so she wanted to use this opportunity to go out and enjoy herself for a bit.

I knew she had been holding herself back after what had happened previously. She was a woman with a strong character, so even though she knew that Cindy was the one who did it, she endured it all and did not mention it for my sake.

I felt extremely sorry, so I registered her for an overseas tour group so she could go out and have a good time. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

"You should stay here even after I leave. I'll hire a caretaker to take care of you during this time." Cecilia was very worried about me.

"It's okay. I'll go back to the villa since Theo isn't around anyway. Ms. Woods is in the villa, so don't worry about me." It was time for me to head back. No matter what happened in the future, it was not the time for me to leave yet. Living here was not an option.

After sending Cecilia to the airport, I drove back to the villa alone.

I saw Cindy standing in the living room as soon as I walked through the door. She looked just like a

matchless beauty-tall with an air of stunning elegance when paired with her white dress.

No one could resist a beauty like her.

My heart throbbed in pain. Her existence was a threat to me. As long as she was around, I was destined to be abandoned at any time. My child might end up the same way too.

At the thought of this, my heart ached to the point of explosion. There seemed to form a bloody pit filled with anger and hatred, which spread rapidly.

How nice would it be if she did not exist in this world? My child would have a complete family and I would not have to worry about Theo randomly leaving for no reason.

The ugly monster at the bottom of my heart rapidly grew, and my thoughts became a mess. Without thinking much, I picked up the fruit knife beside me and bolted toward Cindy.

At this moment, there was only one thought in my mind-everything would be okay once she was gone. All my worries would disappear.

Just as my knife was about to pierce through Cindy's back, a huge force pushed my body away and the knife fell from my hand.

Theo picked up the knife and tossed it afar, glaring at me with frosty eyes. "What are you trying to do, Wanda Lane?"

My mind was blank but I slowly regained my senses. Did I just attempt to kill Cindy?

I was horrified at my own actions and my body went limp as I crashed downward. I was no longer in control of my body. Theo reached out to hold me, but his eyes remained ice-cold. His rage had reached boiling point.

The lingering fear made me tremble. I closed my eyes i n agony, and when I opened them again, they were filled with tears. I lowered my head and pleaded in a low voice, "Ask her to leave, Theo. Ask her to leave immediately."

I ignored his frosty and dark countenance. Yanking his hand, I said urgently, "Theo, I can't bring myself to see her here. This is our house. This house belongs to you and me. Please, I beg you, don’t make me see her here or I'll really kill her."

I kept muttering under my breath, revealing to him all my love, hatred, grievances, and viciousness without reservation. I told him how much I loved him, how afraid I was that my child would not receive their father's love, and how much I hated Cindy.

At this moment, I was honest and spilled out everything that I had buried in my heart for the past three years.

He listened quietly with his thin lips gently pursed. His grip on my body had loosened.

Cindy was dumbfounded by what just happened and finally realized what was going on. She screamed at the top of her lungs with no regard for her image," Don’t listen to her, Theowy! She's a liar. She's lying to you-"

I was still shivering. Theo held me tight, his moist lips pressing against my forehead. He said in a deep and hoarse voice, "Why are you so silly?"

Having said that, he picked me up and carried me upstairs while saying to Keith, who was just coming i n, "Send Ms. Cindy back."

"You don’t want me anymore, Theowy?" Cindy's voice was sad and piteous-full of despair and unwillingness.

"Keith will take you home." Theo's voice was a little cold.

He then closed the bedroom door. Keith's voice could b e vaguely heard from downstairs. "Let’s go, Ms. Cindy. Please don't make things difficult for me."

Theo gently placed me on the bed. His dark pupils scanned me up and down, his countenance dark and gloomy. I did not know what he was thinking about.
