The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2615

A partnership?

I smiled. “Both of you are already very powerful. I doubt you need this small Green Orange of mine for anything, no?”

The bait was tempting but I had to maintain my reason.

Nibel looked at me, a faint smile on his lips. “I don’t want Green Orange, I just need you.”

“Me?”

“My request for this partnership with President Grant is very simple. I want Miss Wanda to be the spokesperson for Gold-O Face Cream.”

I waved my hand. "I'm not a model. Why do you want me?"

"We’d get the best outcome with you as the spokesperson. You and President Grant are husband and wife. You’ll be more convincing as the spokesperson. If even President Grant's wife uses this cream, what else is there for other people to worry about? Naturally, it would drive up sales.

Nibel wanted to use this as a publicity stunt.

If we were to do this, though, and something goes wrong later, Theo and I would be implicated. We might not even be able to shake it off.

I looked at Theo, wanting to know what he thought. He looked at me. "I have no objections. It all depends on President Lane. If she agrees, then I’ll happily cooperate."

Theo emphasized the word ‘cooperate.’

I recalled what he said to me before, to cooperate with Nibel. Was he hinting at me to agree?

“Since President Grant has agreed to it, what’s your answer, Miss Wanda?”

“Alright then. I accept.”

“We don’t know what’s the purpose of Nibel’s visit. The only thing we can do now is prevention. Even if he’s not given his game away, we should still be prepared.”

Theo had always been the cautious sort. He would always prepare for the worse whenever he got into a partnership with someone. This time was no exception.

“The signing ceremony will be in a week. My role as spokesperson will also be disclosed then. Let's see if Nibel will make any move when the time comes.”

If Nibel was really going to do something, he would do it after the signing ceremony.

Theo touched his chin, looking like he was deep in thought. “If anything were to happen during the signing ceremony, he wouldn’t be able to hide away either, so he won’t. Even if he were to do something, he wouldn’t choose to do it during the signing ceremony.”

“The most important thing is to actually find out what Nibel’s purpose is for being in Hatton,” I said.

“Yes. But that would be the hardest to find out.”
