The Woman From Hell

Nina gave us a lot of presents when she returned from her honeymoon. Marius also no longer needed to wear several hats after she came back. Life was good for a time.

He played with the gift Nina gave him in one hand and looked to be in good spirits. "Excellent, I can sleep from now on."

"You make it sound as if we abused you." Shannon threw a glance at Marius after she unpacked the presents.

Marius turned his gaze to me. "Sis Wan's gift looks more expensive. I want to see it."

Saying that, he came up to me and tried to touch my gift.

"I haven't even opened it yet. Is it really your turn?" I slapped the back of his hand.

Marius was aggrieved. "Then let me watch you open it."

"No. Nina said it's for Theo and me. So I'm gonna look at it back home."

"Friends are really nothing once people are in a relationship."

Hearing Marius' murmur, I glared at him. He seemed sensible enough and closed his mouth, saying nothing else.

Shannon suddenly yelled as if she recalled something. Marius and I turned to her simultaneously. "What's wrong?"

"Theo's assistant. Kyle="

"Keith," I corrected her, seeing that she failed to recall his name.

"Ah, right. Keith." Shannon snapped her fingers and then made her way to my desk, saying, "I was in a bad mood yesterday and went shopping. But then I ran into him and Nibel at a coffee shop." I frowned and pointed out "Why did you say you went shopping?"

"I was in a bad mood?"

"Yeah, why didn't you go with me since you were in a bad mood? Why did you go shopping alone?" I asked back.

Shannon waved her hand and said to me, "Is that really the important point? Is it not the fact that Keith shouldn't be meeting with Nibel?"

"Is that weird?"

I shrugged, not thinking much of it; "Theo probably passed the Golden-O project to Keith to handle after left. It's not unusual then that he'd meet with Nibel."

"Did you forget that Nibel handed the project over to Neil? If Keith were to be interacting with anyone, it should be Neil."

I put down my own, stunned for a moment. "You're right."

I had been so busy recently that my mind had gone dizzy.

"Exactly. So, do you think it's weird now?" Shannon crossed her arms and looked down at me.

Pondering for a bit, I shook my head. "No. Perhaps Nibel and Keith hit it off and became friends in private. That's also possible."

"My God, Wanda, can you be more、 vigilant? Not everyone is so simple, let alone those in the business field. Aren't you worried they might be plotting something?"

"Keith wouldn't betray Theo."

"And if Nibel insists on attracting Keith and throwing him all kinds of sugar-coated words, then what? What if Keith is unable to resist the temptation?"

"You're making too many assumptions."

Regardless, I still did not believe that Keith would sell Theo out. Even if Nibel had some kind of plan, Keith would never agree with him.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Marius suddenly said at this

moment, "Speaking of Keith, I also

saw him tast time I went to the hospital to visit a friend. He looked very nervous. It seemed that a family member of his was sick."

"His family member was sick?"

"Do you think he's in need of money now? What if Nibel offered him a large sum of money?" Shannon clapped her hand as if she had proven something.

I glanced at her. "If that were the case, he would tell Theo directly. Do you not think Theo would help?"

"That's true." Shannon pursed her lips and said nothing more.

Did Theo know that Keith's family was sick?

I thought of going to Grant Corporation for a visit.
