The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1940

The weekend passed, and I sent Munchking back to elementary school.

Before entering the school gate, Munchkin kissed my face lightly and then asked me, "Mommy, when Daddy comes back during the weekend, can I go see him?"

I nodded at him despite not being sure. "Yes, we can."

Looking at Munchkin’s back as he ran into the school, I suddenly felt a little sentimental.

Theo would be coming back, but I really was not sure if he would come pick me up.

I drove back to Drover’s villa. Marius was inside.

Upon entering the villa, he was slumped on the sofa and nibbling on an apple. He was watching TV comfortably. “You’re back?"

He just glanced at me and asked before his eyes went back to the TV again.

He looked to be idle every day, I had never seen him work or do anything else.

I sat down next to him. "Marius, you seem very relaxed. Don't you need to go to work?" Even if his family had a business, he would have to take part in its management.

Hearing my question, Marius sat up quickly and patted his chest. "I have my own company, which is currently running steadily. There are also people helping me run it. As the big boss, I don't need to work every day. It’ll give them a lot of pressure if I do."

"Oh? What kind of company?"

"One that deals with investment. That’s because I have a unique vision. Of course, it has to be an investment company." Marius was particularly conceited and not humble at all whenever he talked about his strengths.

"He must have gone through a lot to be so vigilant," I lowered my head and muttered to myself.

Even though I said it softly, Marius still caught it and sighed. "You have no idea. He once got into trouble because of this. A friend of his who had been with him for 10 years stole his project and made a lot of money off of it. Since then, he has been extra cautious and doesn’t dare to be so candid."

No wonder he was still wary of Marius. I looked at Marius and asked with a smile, "Don't you feel sad, then?"

He shook his head. "I can understand why he's acting like this. It's enough for me to know that he treats me as a friend. As for the rest, I don't care."

After saying that, Marius lay down again.

It looked like Drover was very intense with his vigilance...
