The Woman From Hell

Tyler's expression sank. He stared at us for a while before saying a little impatiently," Fine, just hurry up and go home. Stop acting all lovey-dovey in front of me."

Theo and I got up and said our goodbyes before leaving the restaurant.

Theo had drunk wine and was unable to drive. When he got into the front passenger seat, I went to the driver's seat and pulled open the car door.

After getting into the car, Theo leaned on his seat and closed his eyes. He indeed had too much to drink.

My mind was full of thoughts about Susan. I was not sure how she was doing lately. I should find time to visit her and her son soon.

As for her desire to leave Tyler, I was not planning to persuade her to stay. If she was thinking about leaving, then surely she must be exhausted and had experienced enough disappointment. In this case, leaving Tyler's side would be the best choice for her.

Moreover, her departure could force Tyler to face his true feelings and reflect on his mistakes. He needed a taste of suffering or he would never know how to cherish the people around him.

When I stopped at the red light intersection, Theo, who had his eyes closed the whole time, suddenly opened his eyes and said to me, "Wrong way."

I froze and looked at the road ahead, feeling a little confused. I then glanced at the navigation to reconfirm it. "It's right. It's this way."

Theo frowned. "You still plan to go back to the Louises' place?"
