The Woman From Hell

We ended the call after Shannon got a few more complaints in.

She was not wrong. If one did not harbor such deep hatred, things would have been done in secret even if it was something like robbing a project. Who would create such a huge fanfare? There was only one possibility. There was beef between Drover and Theo.

Yet they had clearly been partners before...

This puzzled me.

This night was doomed to be a sleepless one.

I only fell asleep when it was almost dawn.

The next day, I was woken up by the vibrating sound of my phone. It was Shannon calling.

"Wanda, I think I'm going into labor soon. Do you want to come over?" She did not sound like she was about to give birth. I could not hear any pain at all.

Her voice woke me up immediately, though, and I immediately rolled over and got out of bed. "Alright, I'll be right over."

Washing up at the fastest speed I could manage, I went downstairs only to be faced with the rarity of Drover and Marius both being there.

They were sitting face-to-face, looking like they were talking about something big. Both of their expressions were heavy.

I did not pay much attention to them considering the situation with Shannon. I just said, "I'm going out."

Hearing my voice, Drover switched to a smile as he turned to look at me. "Alright. Be careful on the road."
