The Woman From Hell

Grant Corporation.

I was a little nervous today that I could not sit still in front of Theo.

Theo had been reviewing a document, but when he noticed how restless I was, he looked up and said with a smile, "We're only getting the sales statistics today. There's no need to be so nervous."

Sitting before him, I supported myself against the table. "How can I not be? We did so much in terms of distribution. We'll be at such a loss if sales aren't good."

"It's okay. I trust our product." Theo was really way too steady about this.

Waving my hand, I shook my head repeatedly. "I can't be as stable as a rock as you are."

Keith walked in at this moment, document in hand. I immediately shot up from my seat. "Is the sales report out?"

Keith nodded. "Yes, here it is." He handed it to me.

Looking at the document he handed over to me, I reached out and accepted it before pulling back. "Why don't you tell me how the sales are?"

Feeling an apprehension in my heart, I watched Keith open the document and observed the expression on his face. However, his expression was exactly the same as Theo's. I could not detect any hint of change. My fingertips were cold. Gulping, I waited for Keith's reply.

"Our sales so far after one week of Golden-O's launch is 30 million."Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

My eyes widened at the number. "30 million? Did I hear it right? 30 million?"

It was even higher than I expected.

"Take a look."

I grabbed the document Keith handed over and opened it to check. "It's really 30 million. Theo, it's really 30 million."

My heart which had been suspended in mid-air finally touched the ground. I smiled wildly and handed the report to Theo. I could not reign the joy in my heart.

"Indeed. Congratulations, President

Lane. Your wish has come true."

There was also a smile on the

corners

f

of Theo's mouth. "Keith,

instruct the relevant departments that they can take three days worth of paid leave."

"Yes, Mr. Grant." Keith left the office after receiving Theo's instructions.

I could finally breathe a sigh of relief. "President Grant, this three-day vacation also applies to you, yes?"

"Of course. Not only three days of paid rest but if you have any other requests, do speak them, President Lane."

"Any?" I tilted my head and asked.

Theo nodded and smiled affectionately. "Of course."

I straightened myself and pondered. "Then I'll have to think about it."

Clap, clap, clap!

A sudden round of applause erupted behind me, and I turned around. It was Nibel.

"Congratulations, President Lane and President Grant, for your victory." These were Nibel's first words upon entering.

He walked up to me and smiled, warm like the summer sun. "Your plan is going well, President Lane. Golden O's sales this time are much higher than expected." "This is also attributed to the technical support you brought, Nibel. Our success is also yours."

I did not think Golden-O would have done as well if it were not for the EUR's technology.

"Sales will continue to rise. We'll accelerate the process, but if we do so, your existing production volume will not be able to keep up with the sales. Have you considered the supply shortage, Mr. Nibel?" Theo looked at Nibel, the smile on his face having disappeared.

"Do you have a solution, President Grant?" Nibel asked, not mincing his words.

Theo stood up and went up to Nibel. "I hope you'll be able to expand production and partner up with our factory so that we can solve the short supply problem."

Was he asking for Nibel's technology?

I was somewhat stunned. Would Nibel agree to it, though...
