Sandra amiably shook my hand as well.

You're too polite, Mrs. Grant." "Let's start tomorrow, then? We'll first get you familiar with things today," Theo spoke again.

"Of course. Then, I'll head back to work now." Sandra left the office afterward.

Looking at her back, I felt a complicated emotion. She indeed did not seem like the kind of person who would do such a thing.

"I know what you're thinking, but it's important to put your guard up. It's always better to investigate beforehand."

I turned my gaze to Theo and saw his deep eyes. I nodded back at him.

Early in the evening, we arrived at Seasky

Restaurant.

Regardless of the boring name, it was the best restaurant in Whaldorf, and the price was in the middle range. Many companies would hold reunions or annual meetings here.

Sandra came somewhat late, and we were waiting in the private room. "I'm so sorry. The project was being followed up and I got preoccupied."

"It's alright, Director Tyler. Please take a seat." I smiled, then told the waiter to start serving the dishes.

Theo took the lead in raising his glass and giving a toast to Sandra. "Thank you, Director Tyler, for helping my wife this morning. We'll have to drink to this."

She was not pretentious and drank with Theo.

Sandra must be one to socialize often, so she was good at drinking. It was no wonder she was straightforward with it.

"Yeah. I truly have to thank you, Director Tyler. Is your house located around that area?" I asked curiously.

North Ring Road was close to the suburbs. People took that road either because it was clean and quiet, or because they lived in the area around North Ring Road.

Sandra responded with a smile. "Yeah. I bought The Uno at North Ring Road."

She seemed to have told me that without the slightest hesitation.

"The Uno at North Ring Road was newly opened two years ago, but the residents there are not of young age. Either that, or they would buy the place just for investment or

retirement. I didn't expect you to live there, Director Tyler," Theo said casually, but his words seemed to have a deep hidden meaning.

His eyes were burning, but Sandra seemed to be rather calm. "I like the quietness. It's in the suburbs, so very few people would come and go.

Plus, it's very convenient for me toet

do research. I'm not afraid of you guys making fun of me, so I'll tell you this was complained about and warned because of the loud noises I made during research when I was overseas before this. So after that, I tried to stay away from populated areas so as not to disturb people."

Sandra spoke slowly, and her unhurried explanation was very sincere. Perhaps it was just us being overly suspicious.

Just as I was about to speak, Theo spoke first, "Aren't you afraid of others getting vengeful for you helping my wife out? After all, society isn't as peaceful as it used to be."

"Of course, I'm afraid. But I

happened to be in the middle of it, so I couldn't just sit back and ignore it. Besides, I just stopped my car, it's nothing. If it were any other

dangerous situation, I'm afer no!

wouldn't have such courage Sandra said while covering her mouth and chuckling a few times. What she said was only human nature.

"You're right. I really do have to thank you for this time, Director Tyler."

In order to avoid the embarrassment caused by Theo's continuous questioning, I hurriedly spoke up.

After this meal, I suddenly grew fonder of Sandra.

On the way home, Theo asked me, "What do you think?"

"I think it was just a coincidence. She's right about everything." I suddenly became less suspicious of Sandra.

Theo did not respond, and the next moment, Keith called him.

"I found the culprit, President Grant." Keith paused slightly, and I heard a page being turned. He was probably looking at the material. He continued, "It's Nadia."

"Okay. I got it."

After he hung up the phone, I looked at him. "We misunderstood Sandra..."

Theo smiled slightly. "It's always good to be more careful."

I nodded, but I felt a little guilty in my heart...
