The Woman From Hell

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of Nina and Jason's wedding.

They chose a hotel with very elegant decor, and the hall was decorated very dreamily. It was the wedding Nina had wanted ever since she was a child.

I grabbed Theo's hand as we arrived at the scene. Our name cards had been specially arranged on the tables. I saw our names and pulled Theo over to our seats. Shannon and Marius had already arrived and were in their seats and waving to us. "Jordan isn't back yet?" Theo asked as soon as he sat down.

The corner of Shannon's smiling mouth twitched, and she replied in a less than pleasant tone, "No, he isn't. He's still busy and can't come back. Besides, he doesn't know Nina, and it just so happens that Marius and I can be each other's partners." Hearing this, Marius hurriedly said, "I was forced. I had a companion at first." He met Theo's gaze, mouth forming a smile. "Long time no see, President Grant."

"Yes, it's been a long time. I heard from Wanda that you've been helping out at Green Orange. You've been of great help."

The two of them were indeed becoming more courteous with one another with every meeting that the atmosphere between them had turned weird.

There was still a slight familiarity in their distance.

I frowned, and Theo caught it. "No frowning at a wedding banquet."

Hearing this, I hurriedly eased my expression. "Alright."

Theo leaned into my ear and whispered, "What were you thinking just now?"

I opened my mouth but then thought it was not a good question for the time being and changed the topic. "It's nothing. Looks like it's about to start."

The master of ceremonies was announcing the program on stage. Jason looked very handsome today as he stood up there waiting for his bride. The door of the hall slowly opened and Nina came into view in her wedding dress. It made a beautiful picture.

Her father was leading her into the hall slowly.

It was such a beautiful scene.

I watched as Nina went up to Jason slowly with her arms wrapped around her father's own and turned to Theo. "Isn't she beautiful?"

"She's not comparable to you, though."

""You're quick."

"I was being honest."

I was very satisfied with the answer.

Watching as Nina and Jason

exchanged their vows and rings, I could not stop my eyes from getting wet. The handed me a tissue, and I wiped my eyes. "One really becomes more emotional with age. Do you think I'll cry when our daughter gets married in the future?"

"Don't worry. I'll definitely find her a good partner."Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

"That's not easy to do."

"If a man wants to marry my daughter, he'll have to come up our door. He also needs to be capable." Theo looked confident and determined.

I smiled and knew as soon as I heard him that he would favor his daughter.

The ceremony was over. Nina went

to change her dress and prepare for the toasting session. I wanted to see ber. "Theo, I'll be heading backstage."

"Alright."

I got up and walked away, but a man stopped me in the corridor. "Wanda Lane."

"Who are you?"

I did not know the person before me, so how did he know me?

The man lifted a document in his hand and smiled at me. "I know your secrets. If you don't want me to expose them here, come with me." "What secrets?"

"For example, what happened in the mountains."

I was instantly alert when I heard that. I did not care about it, but Nina did.

"What do you want?"

"Come with me. Let's talk."

The man turned around and walked away. His stride was as if he was confident that I would follow him.

He then turned back, probably

because he did not hear any

footsteps from me. "Follow me in

three seconds. Otherwise, I'll expose

them immediately." With that, he continued on.

Seeing no one else around and how he knew about what happened in the mountains, I had no choice but to go with him. With that in mind, I followed him.
