The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1989

I went to Drover's office. Standing at his door, I shot him a message.

A moment passed and he came out to open the door before leading me in with a surprised look on his face. "Why did you come here all of a sudden?"

"We can talk inside."

Outside was not a place to talk.

I could feel countless pairs of eyes staring at me when I went in. They must have seen the news.

Following Drover through the layers of security, we finally arrived at his office.

"Please sit." He poured me a glass of water.

"Thanks."

Drover sat next to me. He did not seem to be affected by the news, or did he not know about it yet?

After clearing my throat a little, I tentatively asked, "Have you seen today's hot gossip?"

"I have," he responded without hesitation and in a calm tone.

It looked like he really did not care.

"I wonder if it’ll hinder your work." I would not have taken this to heart if I were not worried that his project would be affected.

The masses had the memory of fish. They would immediately forget about something once they got the next hot topic.

Drover waved his hand. "You came here because you were worried about this? Don't worry, my company isn’t that fragile. Our projects are proceeding steadily."

"What about your project with Grant Corporation? I’m guessing Nicky will announce that she and Theo are together next."

When the news breaks, Grant Corporation would be affected to some extent. There would also be problems on Carlson’s side, so I would have to inform them in advance.

"No, this kind of news isn’t some kind of dug-up dirt. Not to mention, it’s a topic the reporters were sold, so it’ll disappear soon,” Drover revealed.

“Our influence is definitely not as great as those famous celebrities. The fact we became a hot topic shows that someone pushed us up there. Nicky has really put in a lot of thought and effort.”

"It’s good if it doesn’t affect you. I just came to confirm. You can go back to your work, then. I'll leave first. Goodbye."
