The Woman From Hell
Chapter 854

Chapter 854

When the barbecue grill was being set up, Quinn pulled me aside and said, "Let the men do the rough and dirty work. Come and take a walk with me."

She probably had something to say to me, so I followed her.

There was not much to see in the backyard in winter a s everything was bare.

Quinn pulled her down jacket closer to her body and looked at me, saying, "Are you and Theo planning to have another wedding?"

I shook my head. "No."

Quinn frowned. "He..."

At this point, she glanced at me but did not finish her sentence.

After taking our seats, she asked me again, "Have you been taking birth control measures lately?"

Did she not think it was inappropriate for her to ask this question?

I suddenly blushed, shaking my head.

She nodded and said, "It's time for you to get a second

child now. Munchkin is already four years old and is such a sensible child. I can give you a hand so you won't be so tired.”

I fell silent suddenly and did not continue with the conversation.

"There’s one more thing. I hope you can persuade

Theo on this."

There was a look of sadness on her face. "Marcus and I lived together for more than a decade. We more or less have feelings for each other. I really can't stand watching Theo back Matthew into a corner."

I pursed my lips and said, "There are things that I can and can't say. If I talk to him about Zimmer Corporations, the consequences will be much worse than how things are now."

She was stunned and looked at me with a slightly dazed expression. After a long time, she sighed and said, "It's my fault."

For the sake of the favor I owed Matthew, I should probably persuade Theo but I could not. Once I tried to persuade Theo, he would get even madder.

The two of them had been fighting for years and had never once crossed the line.

Now, Theo was bent on backing Matthew into a corner because Matthew had angered him.

What exactly did he tell Theo at Cassey’s wedding?

When we returned to the front yard, Theo and Grayson had already started grilling.

After grilling several skewers, he handed them to me." You can have a taste but don't eat too much."

I looked sideways at him. "Are you sure I can eat it?"

He raised his eyebrows. "Of course."

After taking my seat, I took a bite and thought it tasted pretty good.

After eating, I looked at Theo. "I wonder if Susan is with Tyler? We have so much good food here and should probably send some over."

Petra and Quinn's culinary skills were top-notch. They knew how to make various culinary dishes. There were so many of us, so they would inevitably make extra.

Theo nodded. "I'll ask Keith to bring some over tonight."

I smiled slightly. "So others aren't celebrating New Year's? Since the company is having a day off, Keith should be at home accompanying his wife and kids."

He was a little stunned and asked hesitantly, 'TH send the food over, then?"

I nodded. "Thanks for the help, Mr. Grant."

He leaned closer to me and lowered his voice. "Is there a reward?"

I pursed my lips and kissed his cheek. "Is this reward enough?”
