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.”
