The Woman From Hell

Chapter 265 Although I did not know exactly how rich Theo was, I still felt that this was wasteful and pointless behavior.

Most importantly, I was not used to having so many people in the house.

"Don't worry, your husband has earned so much money over the years that you wouldn't even be able to spend it all if you tried. Anyway, their daily activities will be within the parameters of these two buildings, so they won't be disturbing you." Theo was like a mind-reader, he immediately knew what I had been thinking about.

He tugged on my hand and tookaround the gardens. The one in front of the house was a flower garden filled with blooming flowers. As you walked along the garden, you would cacross a small pond filled with blooming lotuses.

There was a small pavilion built in the middle of the pond. It would be nice to sit there to admire the lotuses and watch the fish.

A path led from the pavilion to the back garden. It was different from the one in front as all sorts of in-season vegetables had been planted here. Fields of green spread as far as the eye could see, and there were also lots of fruit trees planted along the sides.

"You like eating home-grown fruits and vegetables, right? This way, you won't have to go out and buy them anymore. I think it's a good idea too as it's safer and healthier." Theo stared at the large patch of vegetables, despite his words, the expression on his face did not look pleasant.

I knew he was thinking about the last tTyler had sentvegetables.

Reaching out to hold his large hand, I said sincerely," Theo, thank you!" Not only had he been very considerate of my feelings, but he also remembered what I liked. I knew there was only one reason behind his actions. He wanted to dispel my feelings of unfamiliarity and rejection toward Whaldorf City.

"What matters the most is that you're happy," he said a s he put an arm around my shoulder. "Let's go back in and eat. We'll meet my cousin later." After finishing breakfast, Theo drove his car, bringingout with him.

It was my first tin Whaldorf City, and there was n o question about why it was the city's capital. The scenes of prosperity and development I saw along the way were truly wondrous, nothing that a second-tier city like Salt City could ever compete against. No wonder everyone was fighting for a chance to cand build their career here.

Although it was not peak traffic hours, it was still pretty congested along the way. As we drove with many stops along the way, I turned to look at the scenery outside the window. I could not help but feel a little worried.

It felt like Theo thought very highly of his cousin. I wondered what sort of person she was, and whether she would be easy to get along with.

We finally arrived after being stuck in traffic for two hours. Although I had not been here in person before, it was still the capital city, so I had sknowledge of the place from the inteand television broadcasts.

I had not imagined that Theo's cousin would be living in the city's most prosperous and affluent area. I would not be exaggerating if I were to describe it as a place where every inch of land cost a fortune, and whoever could afford to live here was probably ssort of dignitary.

Compared to your usual mansions, the mansions here were built right in the city's center. No one would have expected the neighborhood to be completely different from the bustling city when it was only separated from it by a single wall.

Walking through the portico and along the small path, you could see all sorts of precious trees and valuables flowers planted on both sides. The lush and beautiful greenery made you feel as if you were walking into a forest.

After walking for a long time, we finally saw a red brick mansion built in a classical style sdistance away. Even from this far away, it looked majestic and imposing.

I had seen all sorts of mansions in recent years, but mansions as majestic and elegant as this one still madegasp in wonder.

A young woman was standing at the door. She had exquisite features, and the silk summer dress she wore gave her an air of elegance. Her beauty made her look like she belonged in a painting, and the house behind her complemented her wonderfully.

Upon spotting us from afar, an excited expression appeared on her face, and she smiled as she cup to us and said, "I've been waiting for you guys for so long, and you're finally here! I was planning to have breakfast with you guys, but it seems like we'll have to switch to having lunch together now." "Traffic was pretty bad on the way." Theo had his usual frosty look on his face, but his voice sounded exceptionally gentle.

He pulledover and said to the woman, "This is Wanda Lane."

The woman smiled as she naturally stretched her hand out and took mine in hers. "Wanda I'm so happy to finally meet you. You look just like how I imagined you would! Beautiful looks and breathtaking elegance! No wonder my grandmother dotes on you so much.

I've been asking this little rascal to introduceto you for the longest time, but he's always said he's too busy and postponed things."

Somewhat embarrassed, I pursed my lips and chuckled as I said, "It's nice to meet you too Quinn. Forgive my tardiness for not coming to visit earlier." On the way here, Theo had toldhis cousin was named Quinn Grant.

She was about three to four years older than he was and had always been smarter than the average average m person since she was a child. Back then, Theo's grandmother had planned to groom her into becoming the family's successor. However, she had not returned hafter finishing her studies at Whaldorf City, and she had also gotten married after that. X
