The Woman From Hell

She was racking her brains just to get close to Theo, completely disregarding her own reputation and my presence.

I sat down and looked at Harriet with guarded eyes. "It seems inappropriate for you to be doing this, Miss Osborn. After all, Theo is my husband and you're a celebrity, so it's hard to stop scandals from happening."

Harriet heard what I said and glanced at me with a disapproving look. "Our partnership has ended anyway. It won't be a breach of contract even if scandals were to happen."

She was not afraid that Lola was here at all.

I glanced at Lola. She looked helpless.

It seemed like I could only rely on myself.

I got up and sat in the middle, separating Harriet from Theo. I took Theo's arm and staked my claim. "Miss Osborn, please remember that he is a married man, so don't covet him, or you'll be a mistress when the time comes. It'll be bad if it affects your stardom. What do you think, Miss Lola?"

I turned to Lola, my eyes as sharp as a knife.

Lola finally opened her mouth this time. "Harriet, please stop it. You're a celebrity. You really need to restrain yourself."

"Fine, I'll restrain myself, but we're still former schoolmates either way, so traveling together is not too much, right?" Harriet even winked at Theo after she said this, obviously flirting with him.
