I went to Grant Corporation that afternoon.
It felt like I had not been here for a long time. After entering the gates of Grant Corporation, I greeted the front desk receptionist. "Good afternoon."
"Madam, why are you here?"
She sounded a little frightened. I was a little surprised, but I did not care. "I came to see Theo." I entered the elevator after I said that.
Along the way, I noticed that everyone was looking at me with evasive eyes as if they were worried that I would catch them and question them. I frowned. What happened? Why was everyone so weird?
I happened to meet a colleague from the previous department. It was obvious that he wanted to run away, so I grabbed him. "Why are you running? I won't eat you."
"Hey, Wanda. Why are you here all of a sudden?" He smiled obsequiously.
He would have greeted me joyfully in the past, not with such an attitude.
"Why is everyone being a little weird today?" I glanced at the passersby, and they all looked at me strangely. "Is something wrong?"
He scratched his head at that. "Actually, it's not a big deal. It’s just... just..."
"Just say it!"
“You'll find out after going to President Grant’s office, Wanda. I'm going to go eat first." He bolted after that. I could not catch him even if I tried.
He was running so fast too!
Theo's office?
I went all the way there, and Keith was at the door. I nodded at him slightly, and he came up to greet me, “Madam.”
"Theo is inside. I’m going to go look for him."
