The Woman From Hell -
Chapter 1658
Chapter 1658
"I'm not sure about it yet. You'll have to wait until I look into it," I replied.
I wrapped myself with the blanket while I said that. Then, I slipped away from the other side of the bed, put on my slippers, and quickly dashed into the bathroom.
The three of us headed outside after having breakfast.
We brought Munchkin to Petra's house.
The little guy had been asking us to bring him to visit his grandparents since he came back last night.
I knew he was excited to tell his grandparents about those interesting things he had seen in France. However, those were considered ordinary things to Petra and Louis. They were no longer new
and exciting to them.
However, we did not dampen his enthusiasm, and we just went along with it.
That would give us the time to let us handle our matters.
I got into the car again after coming out of the villa. Theo fastened his seat belt and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Send me to Nectarine Entertainment," I replied.
Theo frowned and asked, "Why are you going there?"
"I'm going on a field trip," I tidied my skirt and replied casually.
However, Theo seemed unhappy with my answer. He tilted his head and stared at me for a few seconds.
He noticed that I was not planning to change my mind. Only then did he say, "Let me accompany you."
Then, he picked up his phone.
I knew Theo was going to call Keith and ask him to postpone his work this morning. I immediately stopped him. "Don't worry. I'll be fine. Just go to work. I'll see you at noon," I said.
"No way..."
His words were on the tip of his tongue, but I squeezed his hand and shook my head seriously.
"Don't worry. I'm going to be fine. I won't do anything I'm uncertain of," I chimed in.
Theo looked at me and hesitated for two seconds. He eventually spoke, "Okay, but if anything happens to you, you must inform me in the first instance," Theo said. "I promise." |
raised three of my fingers and swore like how they did in the movies.
I knew Theo would not buy it, and he did not believe in my gesture either. He eventually agreed with it only because of my determination.
He slowly started the car engine
with a solemn expression on his face. I began to convince him, saying, "know you're worried about Cindy. Don't worry. She's not going to harm me. If she really wanted to do something, she would've laid a finger on me long ago. You know that well."
I imitated his tone when he spoke to me in that manner when we were in France.
We knew Cindy well, just like how we were familiar with Jordan. Although they were different types of enemies and they both hated us for their own reasons, we had already figured out what kind of people they were.
"Even though you refuse to believe what I say, you saw it for yourself back then. Did she say anything to me when we ran into her at the shopping mall? She was only bad -tempered at most," I added.
I admitted that Cindy had a sharp tongue, but it was understandable why she would say such harsh words.
"But there are so many people in the company. Even if she doesn't do anything to you, the others will..."
Theo did not continue, and I said, "Then you don't really know Nectarine Entertainment well. There are so many people there who are busy with their own work. They can't be bothered about me."
I paused for a moment and continued, "The seniors will show respect to me. As for the rookies, they'll, at most, get curious and gossip about me when they see me. How would they hurt me?"
Theo did not say anything and drove to Nectarine Entertainment. It was only when
I got out of the car did he turn and look at me.
I pondered for a moment, leaned forward, and gently kissed him on the cheek.
"Focus on your work. Pick me up at noon," I said. After that, I closed the car door and walked into the building.
