The Woman From Hell

Chapter 103

At the most critical moment, Miss Woods' came over t o help again. "You should walk more instead of being cooped up at home. Young Master, why don’t you go and take a walk with Young Mistress? She's been complaining about the pain on her feet and they're starting to look a little swollen.”

Theo, who was about to go upstairs, glanced at me and said, "Let me change my clothes first."

I looked down at my feet and whispered, "Miss Woods, my feet aren’t swollen."

"Silly, I’m just making up an excuse for you. Anyway, they'll get swollen in the future and I know you'll complain about the pain soon. Let this be a secret between us." After she said that, she gave me a wink and turned around to clean up the dishes.

Soon after, Theo had changed his clothes and he came downstairs. He looked at my feet and asked, "Is it really painful?"

I nodded guiltily and said softly, "It’s probably some built-up fluid. I can ice them later and they’ll be fine."
