The Woman From Hell
Chapter 421

Chapter 421

When Cindy finally arrived, I was already seated on the sofa waiting for her.

Perhaps it was because I hung up on her but Cindy's face was dark and stormy.

"Please have a seat, Miss Reed.” I smiled, but it did not reach my eyes.

Cindy sat opposite me and glared at me.

I was not bothered by it. "What would you like to drink, Miss Reed?"

Cindy scoffed icily. "Tea.”

"Tea?” I raised my eyebrows. "I remember you liking coffee. When did you start drinking tea? It really seems that an improvement in one's environment can improve one's taste as well."

"Don’t gloat too much, Wanda Lane!" Cindy spat out the words through gritted teeth.

I was in a good mood after mocking Cindy. I did not want to continue either, so I no longer maintained the smile on my face. "So what are you going to tell me about Theo that I don’t know?"

My secretary brought in two cups of tea, set them on the table, and left. Cindy said, "What you did in Salt

City was remarkable."

I narrowed my eyes. It turned out this was the real reason she came looking for me.

I inwardly scoffed coldly, my expression still masked." I don’t know what you're talking about, Miss Reed.”

I could not be quick to deny without knowing what information she had.

“Don't play dumb with me, Wanda Lane." Cindy's face was unkind. "Everything that I should and shouldn’t know, I know. Benny Sherman can't run from a death sentence, Chief Ford could be facing a jail sentence, and my mom is being investigated."

I cocked my eyebrows. "Congratulations, what a celebratory occasion."

"That’s enough, Wanda Lane!" Cindy slapped the table furiously. "My baby's death and all of these is more than enough to compensate you for your baby's death."

"On the contrary, I should be the one saying that I've had enough of you, Miss Reed." I looked at her coldly." Let's not talk about avenging my baby first. Have you not been taught that every mistake bears its own consequences? Benny Sherman killed so many people and broke so many laws. Chief Ford covered up for him, pocketed so much of taxpayers' money, and abused his power for personal gains. Aren't these crimes punishable by law? Besides, your mother was s o delusional that she hired someone to kill my baby. I imagine she would have committed many more

misdeeds in the past. Do you perhaps think that bad guys should just roam free for the rest of their lives after they did bad things?"

Cindy was so riled up she shot up from her seat.

I glared at her coldly. "I'm not responsible for your baby's death, so why are you pinning the blame on m e? I’m not as diabolical as both you and your mother. I'm not capable of wretchedness like this."

"How dare you still deny it!" Cindy was so enraged she grabbed a cup of tea on the table and splashed it on m y face. "You killed my baby! You'll reap what you sowed. Mark my words!"

"I'll reap what I sow?" I laughed. "Since we're talking about that, your family should be first in line for reaping what you've sown. You guys were the ones who killed my baby first, no? Considering you

used such a cruel and inhumane method to do it, you'll receive the harshest punishment there is in hell. I don’t think you’ll ever be able to get away from that."

Cindy’s face was ashen when she had heard my malicious curse.

Someone with a quiet conscience could sleep during a thunderstorm. Was she so terrified because she did not have a quiet conscience?

If so, where did she get the confidence to come all the way here to condemn me?

I wiped my face with a paper towel and looked at her with an amused face. "You're exactly like your mother.

Both of you have the same evilness within you, the same selfishness as well. But you’re not as clever as your mother. At the very least, she wouldn't come looking for me in her rage. You’ve successfully linked your mother to Benny Sherman and Chief Ford with that speech you just gave. This is concrete evidence!"

Cindy panicked after she heard me. "I didn't, I didn't! Stop bullsh*tting. I didn't say anything just now."

I laughed coldly. “Crawl back into your mother’s arms now, foolish child. Or you’ll just be buying your mother a ticket straight to hell."
