The Woman From Hell

He gripped my hand, and his smile was so bright that it dazzled my eyes.

Our eyes met. He had finally stopped running away.

My lips were hooked with satisfaction, and my smile had become brighter. "Alright. You can go and handle what you need to. See you next time." "Goodbye."

Drover withdrew his hand and nodded slightly to me before turning around and walking away. He suddenly stopped when he reached the corner and looked back at me. "Regardless of everything, there was something I said that was true. You and Heather are very similar."

After leaving these words, Drover walked away.

I stood where I was as I watched his back gradually disappear from sight. I lowered my head and smiled slightly. I shrugged and then turned around to go back to the meeting room. The moment I turned around, Theo appeared in front of me, which startled me to a jump. I patted my chest and looked at him with reproachful eyes. "Why did you come out suddenly? You'd scare someone to death."

Theo looked down at me and then in the direction of Drover's departure. "Is he gone?"

"Yeah, he left," I responded indifferently and walked back.

Following my footsteps, Theo walked alongside me. Although there was no expression on his face, there was a lot of resentment in his tone, "What were you talking about?"

I turned to look at him. Having thought, I slowly smiled. "I get it. You're jealous, aren't you, President Grant?"

Men were always about saving face, and Theo was no exception. He vehemently denied it. "No, I'm just curious."

"Oh, is that so?" I rolled my eyes slightly, amused. "Then, it doesn't matter if I answer you or not."

In a blink of an eye, we reached his office. I greeted Keith and then went straight in.

Theo followed me. After closing the door, his voice came from behind, "The right is yours whether you want to tell me or not." He sat down on the office chair, obviously a little angry.

I looked at him carefully, my smile immediately widening. "Okay, I'll you. After what happened last time, I could feel how weird the

atmosphere was between Drover and me. He was always avoiding me, and that made me very

uncomfortable. I knew he felt guilty about me, so we talked about it just now. We're good friends again. I wonder if you're satisfied with this explanation, President Grant?"

I leaned closer to him, tilting my head as I smiled.

Theo glanced at me, and I could tell he was still somewhat dissatisfied, but in the next second, he pinched my face. "Explain it directly next time, or this will be your fate understand?"

"Ah, okay, okay, I got it." Being pinched by him hurt a little, and I covered my face.

"So why didn't you come and show it this time?" Theo said as his gaze followed me closely.

I was confused and could not help frowning. "What do you mean? Haven't you already pinched me?"Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Stretching out a finger, he hooked it and motioned for me to approach him.

I thought he was going to pinch me again, so I slowly approached reluctantly. "Be gentle." I wanted to keep my eyes shut, so I closed them. There was no pain, but his slightly cool, thin lips attached to mine. I opened my eyes and pushed him away. "Ugh, you're teasing me."

Theo smiled slightly, his mood pleasant as he grabbed a document. "You should also go back to your company. I'm going to be busy."

"Yes, yes, you have a lot of things to do every day, President Grant. Go busy yourself. I'm leaving." After saying that, I left the office without looking back.
