The Woman From Hell

Theo hugged me very tightly, so tight I could hardly breathe. I had never seen him like this-fragile and

perhaps a little bit clingy.

He buried his head into the crook of my neck and murmured, “Let’s just be happy from today onwards.

Let’s not fight anymore.”

The warmth of his breath stroked my cars, as well as that low, velvety voice of his

Theo pulled me in closer and said, “Don’t move, let me hug you for a little while longer.” His voice was

resounding and left no room for me to deny him what he wanted.

All I could do was sit in his arms and Listen to his murmuring,

It was a rare atmosphere, one that held both harmony and tenderness.

I was not used to this. A dull fire ruse from the bottom of my heart as I wiggled

He chuckled softly. He seemed to be in a pretty good mood.

I was speechless. My body was stiff, and I did not know what to do. To be honest, I had mixed feelings

about how he was acting right now a little conflicted, a little awful.

This was the first time Theo and I had been relatively close since that incident with Cindy, and I realized

that my body was rejecting him now. There was an odd sense of discomfort within me.

I did not react to those feelings as my mind was occupied. I was still thinking about how I could ask him

for help. He was the only hope I had left for saving Cecilia

All men were the same.

I jolted to my senses, my whole body suddenly tensing up.

He lifted his head and looked at me, an emotion I could not read in his eyes, but h e did not say

anything. He released me and walked out the door, leaving me

and lonely

After a moment of hesitation, I chased after him

I followed him to his room, where he was standing frostily on his balcony with a glass of red wine in his

hands. I took the initiative to walk forward and hug his waist from behind. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to do

what I did.”

He stood there, unimoving, his body stiff and his face gloomy and cold. After a long pause, he asked in

a low voice, “How did things get to this point?”

I shook my head, silent.

I would never tell him about the recording

After another long pause, he sighed.” Alright, go sleep now. It’s getting late.” It was obvious he was

feeling pretty down

I laid on the bed but could not get to sleep. I tossed and turned the entire time

Theo laid beside me, his breathing a little erratic but his body still.

He seemed to be taken aback for a moment before turning around and wrapping his arms around me.

An action-filled night ensued in the bedroom

After a long while, the action ceased, and a calmness took over the roof

He was finally looking a little happier, and as he hugged me to sleep, he seemed satisfied.

I was still thinking of how to ask him for help. Tonight was really not the best time to do so, but Cecilia

was still in the police station. If I did not act soon, it would be harder to change things once they were

set in stone

“Theo, I have a favor to ask.” After much hesitation, I finally said it.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
