The Woman From Hell -
Chapter 849
Chapter 849
"Why would I think that you'd get in the way?" Theo leaned over to kiss my forehead. "I'm more than happy to have you go to work with me."
I sneered and said no more.
After driving into a parking lot, Theo and I got out and took the president's elevator to the top floor.
Theo was going to attend a meeting. After he went to the conference room, I grabbed a book and lay on the sofa to read.
After reading a few lines, there was a knock on the door and I looked at the office door, saying, "Come in."
A young woman who looked to be in her early 20s came in. She had a good posture and an attractive figure.
She could qualify as an unrivaled beauty.
The woman was stunned to see me. Her tone was respectful and soft. "Hello, I'm here to see Mr. Grant."
I smiled. "He's gone to a meeting. It might take a while."
She nodded and calmly sized me up a few times before saying with a smile, "Okay, thank you."
She turned around and left after saying that.
I cast my eyes down and pursed my lips before smiling. Theo's charm was still strong as ever.
Another person knocked on the door, and this time, it was Keith.
He held a delicate-looking cup, walked up to me, and put the cup on the coffee table. "Mr. Grant told me to prepare this, Mrs. Grant."
I glanced at it and smiled. "Thank you."
"You're more than welcome, Mrs. Grant."
I looked at him and asked, "Is Grant Corporation planning to enter the artificial intelligence machinery market?"
Keith nodded. "Al machines are developing at a rapid pace today. Many enterprises are considering shifting their development toward this aspect. It's better to share this piece of the pie earlier, that's why Grant Corporation has invested some money in preparation for the development."
I pondered about it. "It’s not wrong to think that way. Have you hired professionals in this area?"
"We hired a senior student who has been studying abroad. They’re a professional technology- oriented employee." 1
I took a sip and realized that it was watermelon juice. I t was very tasty.
I put down the cup and said with a smile, "Talents like
that must be treated well since they're rare."
"It's precisely because she's a talent that Mr. Grant personally went abroad to extend an invitation. I was truly shocked when I first saw her. She's only in her early 20s and is already so capable. It really is rare."
To have Keith compliment someone like that, it was clear that this individual was really quite outstanding.
I smiled slightly. "What’s her name?"
"Elena Mandez.”
I nodded and asked no more. It would not be appropriate to ask further.
When Keith left, I leaned against the back of the sofa and remembered the woman who came in before
Keith.
Was she Elena?
An hour later, Theo finally finished his meeting.
I lay on the sofa drowsily and sensed someone covering my body with something. I opened my eyes.
When our eyes met, the man let out a tender smile." Why didn’t you lie down in the lounge?”
I sat up and Theo took his seat beside me. I leaned into his arms and closed my eyes, saying lazily, "I’ll fall asleep if I lay down in the lounge."
"Then sleep." Theo kissed my forehead. "Is there a reason why you can't sleep?"
I nodded. "I'm worried that I won't be able to sleep at night.”
Theo helplessly smiled and said no more.
