The Woman From Hell

After leaving the cafe, I went straight back home.

Caroline was surprised to see me when I came back. "Madam, why are you back so early today?"

"I figured I'd make Theo dinner since I didn't have much to do today. You can go home early too, Caroline."

Caroline used to live here quite often in the past, but since Nina and Jason got married recently, she went back two to three times a week to help Nina with her health. "Alright. Thank you, Madam."

"No worries. You hurry back home."

"Alright. The fridge is stocked."

"Okay." I smiled as I watched Caroling remove her apron before leaving the villa cheerfully.

I first carried the children out to the sofa in the living room to let them play on it.

Theo had customized the sofa so I did not need to worry about the children falling down.

Seeing them crawling around happily, I went back into the kitchen to start cooking.

After two hours, I was finally done preparing everything. Seeing that it was almost time, I grabbed my phone and made a call.

"Do you want to come over and eat today?"

"But... President Grant probably won't be too happy about this."

Hearing him falter, I knew that he was worried that Theo might get angry. Not me, though. "You should just come since I'm here. Call me when you're almost arriving. I'll have the security guard let you in." "Alright then."

After hanging up the call, I started cooking.

The hands of the clock read seven just as I was serving up the last dish.

I looked out and saw that Theo had come home. Probably smelling the food, he asked, "Did Caroline make dinner so early today?"

"Why don't you take a look and see who prepared dinner, President Grant?" I stood at the table and asked with a tilt of my head.

Theo looked over at me, surprise written all over his face as he looked at the food on the table. "Did you purposely come back early today to make dinner?"

I nodded. "That's right. What do you think? They're recipes I just learned."

"Braised ribs, sour spicy fish, and chicken soup. They're all pretty grand too." Theo looked at me with a smile.

"Why are you just eyeing those?

a kiss on my lips.

"Who cares about your reward?" I turned my face away and smiled.

He looked at the food again. "Caroline probably went home. We won't be able to finish all this with just the two of us."

"Who said it'll only be just the two of us?" I looked at him with a mysterious smile on my lips.

Just then, my phone rang.

"You're here. Press on the loudspeaker..."

ended the call. "Who else will be

here?" Theo asked.

"A friend. You'll know in a bit."

"Still keeping me in the dark, I see." Theo pulled out a chair and sat down.

Seeing him about to start, I hurriedly said, "We can only eat when the guest arrives."

There was movement at the door, so I made my way out. "He should be here."Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"I'd like to see just who this person is." Theo's smile froze at the corner of his mouth when he saw the man in front of him.

I looked back at The and then opened the door. "Welcome, please come in."

"No." Theo's voice was as cold as a machine.

"Theo!"

He glanced at me before looking back at the person in front of him.

"You're not allowed to come in.

Neil looked at Theo and lowered his head. "I'm sorry for bothering you."

Seeing that he was about to retreat, I hurriedly grabbed him...
