The Woman From Hell

Chapter 1161

I froze, and my mind was in turmoil.

After a long silence, I turned around and looked at him, saying, "I'm now talking to you as your wife."

As soon as I said that, the corners of Theo's mouth lifted.

He looked like he was in a good mood and said with a faint smile, "There’s a change of clothes for you in the closet. Take a shower and go to bed early. It's getting late."

I frowned and wanted to say something, but he was already heading for the bathroom.

We were adults now, and I knew what my answer meant. Hence, there was nothing more to say about that.

When Lally learned about the amount of damage, I had seen just how worried she looked. As a single mother, she needed to care for her child and parents. Even though she had made a lot of money in Fredericks Corporation in the last few years, to pay 30 percent of 500 million was not an amount she could pay off even if she emptied out the savings of her entire family.

Meanwhile, I also had to bear 20 percent of the amount. Furthermore, since I had decided to cut all ties with Theo, I transferred all the many years of income I received from the company under my name to Theo. Apart from the property in Zenon, I had no other assets left. Hence, 20 percent of 500 was simply an astronomical amount to me as well.

Therefore, my only option now was to see Theo so he would not rush me to pay for the compensation.
