The Woman From Hell



After getting to know each other for a while, she then brought me to offer my prayers.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

"You have to be sincere, yeah. God will bless you and let you give birth to a smart, chubby boy."

Although I did not believe in God, sincerity led to spirituality. Facing the statue, it was hard for me to not be in awe. With that, I also said my prayers sincerely.

I hope I could leave here smoothly and return to Whaldorf City.

I muttered silently in my heart.

Aunt Nessa helped me up, then we went to the front to burn some incense.

"If you pray sincerely, your wish will definitely come true." Then, she came to me and placed a hand on my shoulder.

I nodded slightly and acted accordingly while Aunt Nessa continued talking, "You'll have good fortune. It seems there is hope."

I hoped so.

The smell of incense was everywhere here, and I could not take it anymore, so I pulled Aunt Nessa's clothes. "Aunt Nessa, I'll be heading back first."

"There's no rush. The village chief said we'll be having a welcome banquet for you right here since it's your first time in the village."

I frowned. How did they turn this into such a lively occasion? I waved my hands again and again, "Please don't bother. I..."

"It's not a bother. Every bride here will experience it once."

Knowing that it was useless to refuse them, I did not bother saying anything else. A banquet it was, then.

After some time, Aunt Nessa took me to the open space next to the temple. There was a lot of delicious food served on a large round table, and they were all famous local dishes. I was flattered.

A man who appeared rather dignified came to us. "So, you're Wanda. Come and sit."

"He's our village chief."

"Hello, village chief."

"Hello, hello. We'll be a family from now on. That boy, Matthew, is lucky to have such a beautiful bride like you. It really brings our village pride, doesn't it, everyone?"

Enveloped by everyone's

enthusiasm, the smile on my face never faded. "Thank you, everyone. But Matthew isn't off work yet. It doesn't seem particularly good for me to be here alone."

"No, no, it's about time now. Matthew will be back soon. We'll still be here."

"Yeah, yeah."

They had something to say to counter my every word. I had no choice but to give up and sit in the middle while accepting their enthusiasm.

As the sky was getting darker, the village chief suggested setting off fireworks. Thus, few individuals carried a few tubes of fireworks to the open space at the front and lit them up with great difficulty.

The fireworks bloomed in the sky. They were so bright.

It was gorgeous.

I looked up, and it was like there were sparks in my eyes. In my blur, I saw Matthew running over here hurriedly. He was relieved when he saw me.

He was so anxious because he thought I had escaped.

Matthew had just arrived when he was pulled over by the village chief. "Matthew, you're finally back. Your wife was here the entire day."

"Yeah, why didn't you introduce your beautiful wife? Were you worried that she'd be kidnapped?"

He smiled at those people. That smile made him look like the sunny boy he was in the past.

Fireworks bloomed above his head behind him, making him look especially beautiful.

Time passed without us knowing it. That night, Matthew and I walked side by side as we made our way home. He looked like he had been joyful today. His steps were also much more upbeat.

"You're very happy today," I looked at him and said softly.

Matthew had a bright smile on his face when he looked at me before raising a brow. "I'm very happy. I didn't expect everyone to still be warm and kind after so many years. Compared to the indifferent people in Whaldorf City, it's much warmer here. Don't you think?"
