The Woman From Hell



I nodded again and again as I listened to Aunt Nessa. "It sounds great."

"Of course. We lost to the village next door last year, but this year, everyone is fired up," Aunt Nessa said earnestly, sounding like she genuinely cared if they won or lost.

There was a slight smile on my face. I saw the look on Aunt Nessa's face and could not help but smile. "There's even a competition going on?"

Aunt Nessa shook her hand. "Thurton Village next door is our mortal enemy. Let's not mention it. I'm going back to cook. You should start too."

"Okay, Aunt Nessa. Be careful on your way back."

After sending her off, I sat down on the sofa thinking.

Anmead Village and Thurton Village were neighbors. Searching for my exact location with this information would be more accurate.

I did not have any equipment now, however. I did not even have a mobile phone. How was I going to search for it...

I noticed Matthew holding a laptop in his hand last time. Was it in his room?

I went to his room. The door was ajar, and I pushed it open.

The room was not big, but it was not small either. It looked well organized. The walls were light blue, which looked pretty good, and the laptop laid flat beside the bed.

Perhaps I could use this laptop.

I opened the laptop, but it was password-locked.

"What could the password be?"

Biting my lip, I started guessing the password. I wondered if it could be his initials, so I entered it, but it was wrong. Then, I tried his initials and birth year, but it was still wrong.

This was bad. I only had three chances.

I turned off the computer. Perhaps it was his birthday, but when was his birthday?

I would have to weasel the information out. I would not be able to get it from Matthew, so I would just have to try Aunt Nessa. She should know when Matthew's birthday was.

It was getting dark, and since I was bored, I prepared a table's worth of food and waited for Matthew to come back.

There was a sound outside. He had returned.

After seeing the food on the table, Matthew's expression froze. "Did you go out shopping today?"

"Yeah, Aunty Nessa took me to go meet the shopkeepers, and I got quite the haul." I felt a lot more relaxed. It might be because I found out what this place was when I went out today.

Matthew naturally caught the joy in my voice. He sat down and looked at me. "You look very happy."

I did not deny it and just nodded. "I'm

happy. It turns out there's a small town a few hundred meters away from us. It's very lively, and everyone seems to be on good terms. Living here must be quite comfortable."

"Do

you want to live here forever?"

"Of course."NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

The condition was that if it was with Theo.

I just muttered these words silently. I also wore no other expression on my face, and Matthew only saw how joyful Hooked. His expression was much better because of this and it no longer had the coldness before.

"By the way, Aunt Nessa said that there'll be a temple fair in a few days. Have you attended it?"

"No, I rarely come back."

"I heard it gets very lively, and there'll be activities such as traditional dances and juggling. Let's go take a look." I could not hide my

excitement, but the excitement was not for the temple fair. Things would be chaotic on the night of the temple fair. I could perhaps try to contact Theo.

Matthew was indifferent once again. "I'll have to see since I may not be free."

"Oh, okay." I was a little disappointed.

Matthew noticed my expression and took a deep breath. "I'll accompany you to go have a look if I have time."

Hearing this, I broke into a smile and nodded again and again. "Okay."
