The Woman From Hell

"Don't make contact with him?"

Nibel's voice sounded from outside the door.

He walked in, gaze shining before coming to a stop before me. "Are you worried about me, President Lane?"

Keith, who was at the side, was tactful and gave a slight bow before leaving the office.

Theo put down the document in his hand and stood up. "You misunderstand, Mr. Nibel. My wife is just disturbed by the news, so she's a little mindful about everything."

He stood next to me and motioned me to stop talking.

Nibel smiled lightly before choosing a seat and settling down. "I saw the news. I didn't expect to become a hot topic just for visiting a heritage town. News sure does spread rather quickly in Hatton." Judging from his tone, it sounded like he knew that such a thing would happen.

Having figured out something, I asked, "How could it be such a coincidence that the paparazzi followed us to the heritage town? Did you arrange them, Mr. Nibel?"Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Hearing this, Nibel looked up at me and let out a light laugh. "You're so smart, President Lane. You found out before I even said anything."

Theo frowned. "What's the use of doing that?"

"To maintain the spotlight on us so that our product will have a better market."

At the end of the day, he did this for the Golden-O project.

Was he not afraid that such an ugly-sounding piece of news would have the opposite effect, though?

Nibel saw through my thoughts and smiled. "Let the rumors fly for a bit. It'll be clarified in two days."

"It looks like you already have a countermeasure."

He nodded noncommittally. "Of course, since I was the one who arranged all this. I came here today to tell you not to rush to clarify the news and that there's no need to say anything. It'll be resolved in two days." "Mr. Nibel, I know you want to keep the spotlight on us, but could you tell us your ideas next time so that we'd be better able to work with you?"

It felt like if I did not say this now, Nibel would make some decision again in the future and release even more absurd news. My heart would not be able to take it.

"Could it be that you don't find the surprise fun, President Lane?"

"It's shocking, had actually thought

vermet

that Nibel was interested in Theo just now. "Now that the outside world is paying more attention to this, you can carry out your operation after two days so as not to affect our daily life."

Nibel looked relaxed. "Don't worry, President Lane. The media thrives on gossip like this. I'll often feed

gelist

them bits and pieces so that we keep the attention on Grant Corporation and Pristine. Golden-O

will definitely achieve gesults

when the products go public."

"You're right, but I think the products will definitely be the first guarantee of sales. You should press the EUR team to release some samples as soon as possible."

"Alright, I will. I'm relieved you care so much about the Golden-O project, President Lane." Nibel got up from his seat and walked in front of me. "I'm sorry for causing you two trouble. I'll be sure to give a heads up next time." "Okay."

Nibel glanced at Theo. "I said all I wanted to say. I won't keep you from your work anymore, President Grant. See you next time."

"Safe journey."

He always came to us and then

spent such a short time here. Could

he not have informed all this over

the phone and not made such special trips? He seemed to be doing this to attract the media's attention so that the reports they released would be even more exciting.

"Alright, Wanda. Let's work."

Nodding, I put aside these messy thoughts of mine for the time being and went back to my office to work. Theo had cleaned the previous storage room and converted it into an office so that I could concentrate on my work here. Although today had been a bit unpleasant, it was, fortunately, part of Nibel's plan.

I wonder what tricks he would come up with next time.
