Chapter 1204
The Woman From Hell
I planned to get up and leave after saying that.
"Stop right there!" Elena followed me and grabbed my arm.
I frowned. "Is there anything else?"
"Yes, of course.â The smile on Elena's face seemed slightly grim.
I had a bad feeling and was just about to shake off her hand when she quickly grabbed a coffee cup
and splashed all the coffee in it on me.
I stood frozen on the spot, taking a long time to come back to my senses.
'Maybe you should stop thinking so highly of yourself, Wanda Lane. You're just standing beside
Theo because you look like Cindy. Otherwise, Theo would really be blind to choose a worthless
woman like you. Now that Cindy has appeared in front o f him, youâll be discarded like a piece of old
rag."
I was not exactly enraged by it. More than anything else, I was feeling sorry for her.
However, I must now allow her to bully me like this, or she would only take it one step further the
next time.
There was a bottle of lemon water on the table, which I grabbed and poured it down from the top of
Elenaâs head. "You're just like a fishwife right now, Ms. Mandez. It doesnât match your beauty and
talent. If Theo sees you in this state, then Iâm afraid he won't even want to speak with you next
time.
Elena's skirt was soaked through, making her look absolutely wretched.
She was so furious that her arms and legs were shaking. She glared at me and said," You have a
death wish, Wanda Lane!"
Just as she was about to pounce at me, a man rushed over and pushed her with great strength.
I looked up and was surprised when I saw that it was Matthew.
This man was sinister to his core. He looked at Elena and coldly said, "How can you consider
yourself as pretty as a fairy when you look like this? Please look at yourself in the mirror before you
leave the house next time, Missy."
He took off his coat after saying that and draped it over me.
"Let's go,â he softly said.
After leaving the restaurant with him, I said, "Thanks."
Having said that, I pulled the coat off my body and returned it to him.
Matthew frowned, not reaching out to take i t. "You don't need to be in a hurry to return i t to me. You
need this coat more than I do."
"I really don't need it.â I forcefully stuffed the coat back into his hands. "It's not obvious anyway. I'll
get changed when I get home." He did not persist, but his dark pupils were filled with
disappointment and helplessness.
When I got home, Shannon had yet to give me a call.
I returned to my room, took a shower, and changed my clothes before going downstairs. I sat on the
sofa in the living room, lost in thoughts.
