The Woman From Hell

Even though he was smiling now, there was a sharpness to it when he was facing Walter previously. Now, it was only soft. Neil was an ever-changing man. His appearance just now reminded me of Theo.

It was not a thought I should be having. The moment it appeared, I would start to accept him as the same.

I looked at Neil. His features were somewhat similar to Theo's. I got distracted at that.

I only came back to my senses when Neil stretched out his hand and shook it in front of me. "Wanda, are you in shock?"

"No, I'm fine. Thank you." I did not say what I was thinking just now. I just shook my head to express that I was fine.

Hearing this, Neil breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. Walter has always been like this, so almost no young woman participates in this."

I realized this to be true when he said this. Even if there were women here, they all had male companions.

"I heard what the others were saying just now. But I heard the way you spoke to him just now. Wouldn't that have dashed your hopes of wanting to form a partnership with him?"

Neil smiled and replied indifferently, "It's okay. I won't bother working with someone like that. It's good enough for me to come here and communicate with some other colleagues. You came with President Grant, did you not? Why were you alone?"

I felt regretful when he asked this. I would have stayed close to Theo if I had known.

"Theo was chatting with some people. I didn't want to disturb them, so I came here. I wanted to try some of the desserts but then bumped into Walter. Thank you. You've helped me again." I was wholly grateful.

"It seems that something happens every time I see you, which ends with me helping you. Is it God's will?" Neil asked as he looked up.

I smiled. "Maybe."
