The Woman From Hell

Chapter 71

Theo darted a glance at me and pulled out his phone t o call his assistant. "Keith, come to West Mountain's ring road to drive a car back."

He wore a dark countenance the whole way back and did not say a word. My anxiety allowed me to ignore the fact that he was angry, and I said, "Theo, if there really was a secondary car accident, there might still b e traces of evidence at the scene."

After a very long time, he finally said, "I figured out the same thing. I checked it carefully earlier but didn't find any trace of evidence."

My heart sank to the bottom of my stomach. Was I supposed to watch Cecilia go to jail and not do anything about it? No. I could not stand doing such a thing.

Theo looked at me and after a very long time, he said," Don't get too anxious yet. I'll introduce you to someone later."

"Are we going to see Cecilia?” I leaped up from my seat. I had no interest in anything else besides seeing her.

"What could possibly change after you see her?" he looked at me and asked mildly.

"I don’t know, but what else can I do? Help me, Theo. I can't watch her go to jail. I wouldn't be able to live with it." I was panicking, my voice choked up.

He stretched out a hand and patted my shoulder, saying, "That's enough. This isn't the end yet, so don’t get too upset or anxious. You've always been so calm and composed. What's up with you nowadays?"
