The Woman From Hell

Sure enough, the newspapers had caught the moment Arthur spoke to me while Cindy was standing farther away in a photo. Hence, only he and I were in it. The title was: [Fresh New Artiste in a Confirmed Relationship!]

How was that confirmed?

The media was really becoming more and more presumptuous. They fabricated the news without even having evidence.

Although the location was not revealed in the newspaper, if someone were to look into it, they would definitely be able to find out easily.

I could only pray now that Nibel and his gang were busy dealing with Theo and had no time to worry about other things. Otherwise, everything would fall apart.

I spent the next few days in fear.

Fortunately, I heard nothing from Nibel. I figured he probably did not have the time to pay attention to me.

There were only three days left before the month was up.

Three days... before everything would come to fruition.

I had spent every day counting down the time and finally survived until the last day.

My previous phone had been off during this time.

I promised Theo to turn it on on the last day.

Looking at the icon on the screen, my heartbeat began to accelerate.

The clock in the apartment showed ten o'clock.

I powered the phone on.

Marius, Shannon, and my parents had sent me so many messages during this time.

Yet, I received nothing from Theo.

Clutching my phone, I stared at the screen. When it dimmed, the light also gradually left my eyes.

Could... Could he have failed?

Just then, I received a message notification.

My hand shook. Was it from Theo or Nibel?

I tapped the screen, and my heart stopped the moment I saw the message.

It was not from Theo, nor was it from Nibel.

It was from Neil.

[There'll be a show worth watching at three o'clock in the afternoon at the conference hall in Grant Corporation.]

This was what he sent me.

The tone of his message made me nervous.

I immediately bought a ticket and rushed back to Whaldorf City.

Standing beneath the city's sky again, my heart felt like it was encased in ice. I wondered if I would get to see Theo again. "Wanda."

I followed the familiar voice and looked over. "Shannon?"

I saw her rushing toward me before she hugged me and wailed, "You're finally back!"

Marius was behind her.

After having not seen him for a month, Marius looked as if he had been affected by the vicissitudes of life. He was still smiling when he looked back at me, however 'Sis Wan, welcome back."

I looked at him and slowly smiled. "Are you okay?" "

"I'm tired." Marius's voice was hoarse, and he sounded really tired.

My gaze lowered slightly. I sighed a little and asked, "What happened during this time?"

"Get in the car. We can slowly talk." Shannon pulled me toward a car.

In the car, Marius and Shannon told me everything that had happened in the past month.

They informed me about how Nibel had joined forces with the Yards, that Wolfe Group had snatched Grant Corporation's projects, and how having offended too many

involved in this dispute with Grant Corporation. Hence, they all watched as Grant Corporation was ruined. Theo not only had to calm the staff, but he also had to fight against the enemy. He must be exhausted. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Acquire Grant Corporation?

These words struck me like thunder. No one could have imagined that Grant Corporation would be bought over one day.

"Theo... Is he okay?"

Marius paused before replying. "He's fine."
