The Woman From Hell

Chapter 1248

After hanging up the phone, I looked at the crowd in the distance in a daze

When one was a certain age, one would prefer to live a stable life.

A person would always need a home, family, and friends no matter what.

Theo and Cindy looked cheerful when they returned

The two had bought a lot of good food. Theo sat down beside me and handed me the ice cream in his hand with a smile. “Try it.” I tasted it and commented, "It's too sweet.’

"If you don’t like it, then don’t eat it.” Theo got up and threw the ice cream into the trash bin.

I looked at him and said with an indifferent tone, "It's getting late. We should go back."

I got up and walked forward as I said that.

I did not say anything on the way and merely listened to Theo and Cindy quietly.

When we got back to the accommedation, I turned around and looked at Theo." Shannon and I are staying together. You should stay in another room.”

I quickly walked into the elevator after saying that.

I was both tired and sleepy. I wanted nothing but to go to bed immediately, which was why I did not want Theo to stay in the same room as me. I feared that I might not be able to stop myself from arguing with him.

When I got to the door of the room and had just opened it, a man ran inside before me.

I was startled and took several steps backward. "Who are you?”

The lights in the room lit up. It was Theo.

He glanced around to check if there was someone else in the room before asking me. "Didn't you say that you're staying with Shannon?" I frowned. "I'm staying with her, but she hasn't come back."

I walked into the room after saying that.

As I did not want to argue with him, I changed my clothes and planned to wash up before bed.
