The news of Drover signing a contract with Grant Corporation was quickly spreading. Not only in Whaldorf City, but anyone with a connection to artificial intelligence knew about it. After all, Drover was too successful in this industry.
It seemed like the threshold of Grant Corporation was about to break down due to the amount of crowd these few days. Theo was getting busier and busier.
Sometimes, he would only return around midnight. Occasionally, I could hear him tiptoe into the room.
On this day, Theo suddenly called me into the office.
As I stood at the entrance, I knocked on the door. Up until today, it had been a while since we had a heart-to-heart conversation. Perhaps since it had been a while since I saw him up front, I felt a little nervous all of a sudden.
"Come in."
His voice was cold and indifferent. It made me feel even more like a stranger to him when I heard it.
As I pushed the door open and entered, I saw him sitting at the desk.
Theo stared blankly at the computer screen. His hands kept moving, and his eyes did not shift toward me.
Would he have forgotten that he called me over?
I pursed my lower lip and said softly," President Grant?"
Although I was not loud, it should still be clear enough to be heard in this large office.
As soon as I called out to him, Theo raised his eyes to look at me.
He looked very tired, and the dark circles under his eyes were distressing for me. Suddenly, I was no longer blaming him. I only felt pity for him.
My gaze gradually softened, and so did my tone. "Why'd you ask for me, President Grant?”
