The Woman From Hell

Shannon gave me a thumbs-up through the video. "Considering your demeanor, I support you."

Before I could reply, Shannon asked again, "What if Theo really is... what are you going to do?"

I had never thought about this. I shook my head. "I haven't thought about it."

"You can think about it now, then. There is still a half chance, after all." Shannon took off the mask and was now cleaning up.

The sound of rushing water flowed into my ears and calmed me down a little. I propped my chin up and muttered to myself, "If he really is, then I.......I also don't know what to do." "No, you can't think that way. Theo definitely isn't!"

"I hope it's as you say." Shannon was done washing her face and showed off her fair skin while facing the screen. I was not in the mood to look at her.

There were sounds outside the door. My heart sped up, and I hurriedly said to Shannon. "He's here. I'm hanging up." Then, I quickly cut the call without leaving Shannon the time to respond.

Theo seemed to have noticed my hasty movements when he entered the room, and doubt appeared on his face. "What's wrong?"

"Ah, nothing. I was just on a video call with Shannon. She didn't want you to see her without makeup, so she just hung up." I could only feel sorry for my good sister at this moment. I put the phone aside and looked up at Theo.
