The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1156

When I returned to my room, I took out the documents and started to organize them, though I was constantly distracted.

I took a deep breath and tossed the documents aside. I got up to get some fresh air on the balcony.

This balcony was just a wall away from the next one. Theo was lying on the balcony reading a book, looking pretty idle.

I instinctively wanted to avoid him when I saw him.

However, there seemed to be eyes above his head as he looked up at me before leisurely putting the book in his hand on the side. He stared fixedly at me with his pair of dark eyes.

I did not know whether to go in or retreat, s o I stood awkwardly on the spot.

He did not intend to start the conversation first, so I could only helplessly say, "What a coincidence, Mr. Grant."

Theo pursed his lips and said in a faint tone, "It's not a coincidence."

How was I supposed to start a conversation with a man like him?

I tugged at the corner of my mouth and faked a smile, saying, "I'm going in now, M r. Grant. I’ll leave you to read your book, then."

"Can you hide forever?" the man asked, his voice low and introspective.

I pursed my lips and put away the smile on my face. "You think too much. I'm not trying to hide from you. I really do have things to do."

Theo lowered his eyes and said mildly, ' This project needs to be followed up by the person in charge at all times. Grant Corporation plans to reach an agreement with the resort tomorrow. Ms. Cally doesn't know much about the project, and this may cause confusion on the scene."

I said almost subconsciously, "Ms. Cally knows a lot. She can perform a lot better than me in many aspects, so you don’t have to worry about that."

Theo smiled faintly, his gaze falling casually on the flowers in front of him. ' One is unable to see one’s own faults.

Haven't you heard of this saying before? She’s too familiar with Fredericks

Corporation and knows many problems regarding the company yet takes no notice

Cally sounded like she was about to cry. "I even went and checked before I left last night. I constantly emphasized how they should keep an eye on the items and carefully inspect all the personnel going in, but it still happened nonetheless."

The incident had happened and there was no use crying over spilled milk, so I could only comfort her, saying, "Don't panic, Lally. There are a lot of surveillance cameras in the research institute. We should be able to get the items back soon."

I continued while putting on my clothes," I’m going over right now. You must stay calm and assist the police. Minimize losses as much as possible."

I hung up after saying that and grabbed my bag before rushing out the door.

When I got to the yard, I happened to bump into Keith walking out as well.

The anxiety on his face reduced slightly when he saw me. "Are you going to the resort, Mrs. Grant?"

I nodded. "Yeah.

"Let's go together then. Mr. Grant and I are going too."
