He stood up, and I hugged him without a word, burying my head into his broad chest.

"I just saw the news that the system Grant Corporation developed for celebrity use was stolen. I'm worried about you." My voice trembled.

"So it's about this." Theo's tone was very calm as if he did not care about the matter.

I left his embrace, my face guilty of suspicion. "Why are you not in a panic?"

Theo did not rush to reply to me. He first walked to the door and looked around, then he closed the office door.

Turning back around, he let me sit in his seat.

This was the president's seat and the chair that Theo personally selected. I heard it was created by a well-known designer and was unique.

Theo treasured it very much. He usually even supervised the cleaners when they cleaned it.

Now, he made me sit down on it directly. I raised my eyes to look at him, and Theo's eyes were full of deep emotion.

"That's fake news."

I blushed slightly and knitted my eyebrows together as I pondered. Only after a long time did I speak out, "You put the news out on purpose, why?" Theo smiled slightly, and he walked to the table while looking back at me. "Although Ruby is no longer with Grant Corporation, she knows about our project. There was a leak that happened before, so I suspected

that there was a mole. Even though I found out who it was, I don't think it's as simple as it seems."

Indeed, leaking company secrets was such a heavy task. It was impossible to plant only one person in.

"You suspect that Ruby was also one of them?" I asked.

Theo nodded, and his face was serious when working. "That's right. I dare not confirm that it was her as she was a key person, but her background isn't simple."

Ruby and Julie were still being held at the police station. They would have to spend some time inside.

I lowered my eyes as I stood up. "But Ruby is now in the police station. Even if you suspect her, how are you going to investigate?"

"Ma'am, you're so smart. How could

you not think of it?" He walked up with a teasing smile and looked at my stomach." People often say pregnancy turns a woman stupid. It seems that's not without reason."

I gave him a blank look and said, "I ran to you in such a hurry, but you're making fun of me."

I put my hands around my chest and pretended to be angry.

Theo stepped forward with a flattering look. "Okay, it's my fault. I'm sorry. Forgive me, Madam."

He hugged me.

I slapped his hand away and looked at him. "Just say it."

"So I deliberately put out news to see if she has someone behind her. They'll definitely go to the police station to find her if there's someone behind her," Theo said.

"So that's how it is."

I thought about it, and Theo's words made sense. According to the usual reasoning, I should have been able to figure out why. I was the one who messed up my train of thought and was not calm enough.

"Pregnant women are sensitive, and their brains can be more chaotic. I understand that. My lady, you should read more books and calm yourself more or do prenatal education Maybe our children will become scholars in the future."

"You sound like you want a boy?"

Theo shook his head. "A girl is good. It's better if she resembles you."

I tsked and turned my head to the side. " Since it's all fine, I'll go back."

I said I was going to leave, but he pulled me back. "I'm here, so stay with me."

On that day, I stayed in the office with Theo, but I did not feel bored.

He chatted with me at times and had Keith bring in fruit at other times, which was very thoughtful.

In the back of my mind, though, I was very interested in whether there was someone behind Ruby...
