The Woman From Hell

The next day.

I woke up much later than I usually did most probably because I had not had such a sound sleep in so long.

Theo was almost done with his breakfast when I went down. I sat down before him and complained, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

"I figured you haven't been sleeping well during this time, so I wanted you to sleep more."

"So you know about that, huh?"

Theo pushed a cup of hot milk in front of me with a smile on his lips. "Hurry up and eat. Keith and I will have to go abroad for three days. I'll leave the company to you during this time."

I raised my head and looked at him, surprised. "So you've been trying to get me to recharge and save my energy to manage the company for you."

He just smiled and said nothing.

I abruptly recalled that the signing ceremony with Nibel would be in three days. "Will you be able to make it to the signing ceremony?"

"Yes, don't worry."

""Travel safe."

Theo eyed me. "We've only been away from each other for some time. Why are you acting like a stranger? I think I'm going to have to cultivate our relationship properly when I come back." He raised his brow at me as if he were up to something. "Continue with your breakfast. Be quick or you're going to be late to the company. I won't be following you along."C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Breakfast ended with that.

Grant Corporation.

Theo and Keith briefed me about the recent company situation in the morning and transferred all the relevant reports to my desk. I could not help but roll my eyes at the hill-like document. "Aren't you guys being a little too discourteous now?"

"Why should I hold back with my wife? You can read these reports slowly. The top three are the most important. I'll need you to go through them first, President Lane." Theo patted the top of the stack of documents and looked at me expectantly. "I trust you'll do a good job, President Lane."

"Don't worry, President Grant. You can leave Grant Corporation to me."

"You shouldn't forget to rest either."

After leaving me with these instructions, Theo and Keith hurried to the airport.

Just when they left, I received a call from Nibel.

"Miss Wanda, are you free to meet this afternoon?"

"Of course, I'm free to meet you whenever. However, President Grant will be away these free days, I-”

Before I could even finish, Nibel

interrupted me, "I know. I'd still like

velet

to meet you. See you this afternoon?" Nibel immediately ended the call after that.

Stunned, I put down the phone. Theo had only just left yet Nibel already knew about it?

I frowned unconsciously. I kept having a bad feeling.

Nibel arrived early in the afternoon, and I took him to the big conference room.

"Did you come to Grant Corporation because you have an idea for the project?" I cut straight to the point the moment I sat down.

Nibel smiled lightly. "A good trader should take action from the start of a project. The most important thing now is the signing ceremony. If we want the Golden-O project to be on track as soon as it starts, we can't slack off even the day after the ceremony."

He really counted every step he takes.

"It sounds like you've got an idea."

Nibel forwent the suspense and immediately nodded. "Yes. I'm here to tell you what I think, President Lane, so as to guarantee the implementation of the plan." "Tell me about it. I'll try my best to work with you."

I wondered what Nibel was planning.

"Now that President Grant is out of

the country, we can use this

situation to create public

discussion." Nibel tapped the table with his finger, his eyes calculating.

I did not understand what he said. "How do we do that?" I asked.

Nibel's smile deepened as he looked at me. "Could I trouble you to contact the biggest media outlets, President Lane?"
