The Woman From Hell
Chapter 1086

Chapter 1086

I opened the closet to see suits and shirts, a s well as a few ties hanging inside.

I browsed through and saw a women's outfit that seemed somewhat familiar, but I could not recall where I had seen it.

After taking out the outfit, I quickly put it o n.

When I was changing my outfit, I saw that the place where I was burned was already somewhat red.

I was in a hurry to attend the meeting, so I could only tend to the injury after the meeting

The meeting had already started. When I walked back into the conference room, Cally was explaining the do's and don'ts when the project was ongoing.

After explaining, Grant Corporation's employees began to state the areas that needed our cooperation.

As the person in charge of the entire project, I had to talk about the safety precautions and the problems that may arise during our cooperation, as well as the solutions to these problems if they did arise.

When everything was clarified and the contract was signed, it was time to choose a n auspicious day to start the project. On that day, the persons in change from both companies had to be present.

When the meeting ended, Cally looked at m e and asked with concern, "Have you applied ointment to your wound?"

I shook my head. "I'll go out and buy some ointment later."

"As a woman, you need to take good care of your skin. It won't be good if this leaves a scar."

I smiled and picked up the contract from the conference table, saying, "I'll take good care of my skin."

Remembering that the clothes I was wearing looked familiar, I asked, "Are the clothes I'm wearing yours?"

Lally frowned. "This is the set you wore when you came back from abroad."

I froze, lowering my head to scrutinize my outfit.

After deliberating for some time, I recalled that Jordan had brought clothes for several of us when we were abroad. Although the styles were somewhat similar, there were still some differences.

My outfit had been kept in my closet this whole time and could not be in Jordan’s lounge. Among the women, only Shannon and I shared similar heights and sizes, so this could be Shannon's.

I looked at Jordan and wondered why Shannon’s clothes were with him.

Jordan saw me looking at him and cleared his throat, saying, "Let’s have lunch together."

It seemed like he and Shannon had progressed much faster than I thought.

"How thoughtful of you, Mr. Fredericks?" Elena suddenly said with a playful smile.

Everyone could hear the implication in her words.

Theo's countenance instantly sank. His dark gaze fell on me, and I felt a gush of coldness.

I knew him all too well. He was holding back his anger.

After walking out of the conference room together, Lally leaned closer to my ear and asked, "What's going on?"

"This outfit is Shannon's," I replied, feeling a slight headache.

Lally let out an ambiguous smile. "The two are progressing pretty quickly, eh?"

She continued after a pause, "But I was asking about you and Theo. Didn't Shannon say that you two are married? Why is he acting so ambiguously with Ms. Mandez?"
