The Woman From Hell

Chapter 1561



I did not answer him and pretended he was talking about something else.

"At least you remember that we got along well back when you were in Zenon. I might not be as rich as Theo Grant, but I believe that I'm a good choice. At least I'll ensure the safety of both you and your child."

"Fred, that's enough!" I said in a displeased tone, reminding him to watch his words. The things he said today had crossed the line too many times, and some of them had even overstepped boundaries.

"I can view what happened previously as you being concerned about Munchkin.

Seeing that you're Tina's father, I'll also consider what you said. However, the things you've said today are too outrageous.

I snuck a glance at the two children as I spoke, not wanting the tense atmosphere hanging between Fred and myself to scare them. Thank goodness the children were having fun playing with each other and did not seem like they had noticed the two adults arguing. I forced myself to suppress my anger as I did not wish to disturb them.

On the one hand, I did not want to seem too angry. However, I also did not want Fred to think I only said what I said for the sake of it.

"All this while, I've been extremely grateful for all the help you've extended to both myself and Munchkin. But gratefulness is all that I feel toward you. My husband and I get along well, and we don't need you to be worried about us."
