The Woman From Hell

Shannon's interest was suddenly piqued when she heard this. She pulled out the chair opposite me and sat down. "How did you find out about it then?"

"When I was chatting with Theo in the office, he actually said, intentionally or not, that he trusted Keith. It was probably a reminder to me but I thought it was a little strange. I didn't think too much about it at the time. I only probably truly found out the day Keith looked for

me alone."

"He came to you alone? Was he not afraid of being discovered?"

I looked at Shannon and smiled slightly. "I bumped into him when I went to the best that time. He told me a lot of things at the time but he said something at the end before he left." "What was it?"

His words were still so exceptionally clear in my mind.

"He said he wouldn't participate. I couldn't figure out what he meant at first but then I considered how calm Theo had been and all the clues that had been scattered about and guessed their plan." Shannon looked like she understood as well when she heard that. "You were able to guess from that, huh? If it were me, I might have been kept in the dark."

"I was forced to grow up." I covered my mouth and laughed.

"Suddenly, it doesn't feel like it's good to mix about in the business field. Let's keep Green Orange small. If we really were to get that big, I'm afraid I might go crazy with all these deceptions." Shannon's words were not unreasonable.

In fact, after experiencing so many things, I was beginning to feel like mundane life was the most beautiful.

It would be great if I could find a relaxing place to live with Theo so that we could get away from all these messy things.

"Alright, let's not think about this anymore. These are the documents you have to deal with today, don't forget." Shannon pointed to the stack of papers next to my desk.

That pulled me back to reality. "I got it."

Gareth would not be back until a few days so I concentrated on my work during then and finished up everything that I had let pile up for several days.

On this day, I went to Green Orange as usual. Logically, Marius should have returned after having rested for so long, but I did not see him.

Worried that something was wrong with him, I drove to his apartment.

"Sis Wan, why are you here?" Marius opened the door and was stunned when he saw me. He then welcomed me into his place.

What I saw when I entered the house today was different from usual.

It was so clean.

It was so clean, it looked like he was moving.

I looked at him and he looked very spirited.

"You took so many days off. Do you not want to work anymore?" I found a place and took a seat.

Marius's expression changed slightly when he heard that and then smiled. "I was thinking of going over tomorrow."

Noticing the change in his expression, I frowned. "The house is so clean. I feel that there are a lot fewer things here than before."

"Isn't decluttering trendy right now? I thought I'd clean up my things a little."

His tone of voice was still the same as before, but I just thought he was acting a little strange. Seeing how empty his living room was now also made me a lot more fearful

I turned to look at his room. The door was closed. I noticed Marius's hand that was on his leg tightened through the corner of my

What was he nervous about?

I got up deliberately and walked toward his room. Sure enough, Marius immediately stopped me. "Sis Wan, that's my room. I don't think it's very nice of you to just barge in, no?" en Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"It wouldn't be the first time, what are you embarrassed about?"

"You say that, but it's different between guys and girls. I think we should make the distinction clear."

I could tell something was up just by looking at him.

I was feeling more and more apprehensive. I had to get to the bottom of this.

While he was not paying attention, I turned the knob to his room just as Marius called out, "Ah, don't—"

I saw the interior and was rooted to the spot with astonishment at the moment.
