The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1698

"So you need to stop trying to hit on those male artists. They don't fit."

"I should stop hitting on them?" That was something I did not expect Cindy to say.

"Otherwise? I know you’re hormonally unstable during pregnancy, but you shouldn't stare at other handsome guys all day long. If you dare to wrong Theo in any way, you know what I'm capable of."

"You don’t have to worry about that."

I smiled, but there was no longer the same kind of tenderness in it.

Cindy also knew that I was not joking, so she did not stress anymore after that.

I took the clothes to the checkout counter. While waiting for the cashier, I sent a

message to Theo, asking him to come directly to the mall to join us for lunch.

I also wanted to show him the two posters Cindy had just made.

While we were walking out of the store, Cindy had her hands in her bag.

"It's almost noon, so as a token of our appreciation, why don't we treat you to lunch?" I took the initiative to extend an invitation.

Cindy was just about to open her mouth when she heard another voice. "Why don’t I treat you two?"

Looking back, Zedd had come out of the corner. I was happy to see him here.

I looked at Cindy, who was impatient just now. She now had a face full of anger.

Zedd did not seem to care, and I knew he

must have taken my words this morning to heart.

I hurriedly made an excuse. "I'm sorry, but you both know I have to eat lunch with my husband, right? Why don't you treat Cindy on my behalf?"

"What’s wrong?" Theo was startled by my tone of voice.

"Zedd is here to see Cindy."

"And what's wrong with that? Does it have anything to do with our lunch?”

Seemingly seeing that I had dialed the number, Cindy simply ignored Zedd’s attempt to strike up a conversation and headed my way.

Startled, I sped up my speech. "Too late to explain. Just hide."

After saying that, I hurriedly hung up the phone.

"Why did you hang up so quickly? Is Theo not coming over?"

"Yes, he said a customer asked a bunch of technical questions and the company's people can’t handle it. He has no choice but to handle it himself, so I guess he won't be able to make it for lunch.”
