While I was working today, my phone that was beside my hand abruptly vibrated. My heartbeat quickened before I diverted my gaze from the computer screen to the table.
Cindy?
I froze for a moment after taking a glance at the caller ID.
I recalled her coming to the company the last time because of that matter regarding Theo and Delia. She must be calling me now about this again.
Since I did not want anyone else getting entangled in this anymore, I ended her call, but it was not long before she called again.
It looked like she would not give up until I answered.
Helpless, I answered the call and put the phone on speaker before setting it to the side. “What's wrong?” I asked casually.
“Come to Grant Corporation at two this afternoon,” Cindy said solemnly with a seriousness I had never heard from her before.
My eyes narrowed as I realized the seriousness of the situation. I switched off the hands-free and brought the phone to my ear. “What happened?”
I heard Cindy sigh heavily over the phone, which was followed by a light reply, “You’ll know when you get here. Remember to come. I’m hanging up.”
Cindy hung up before I could respond.
What the heck was that?
It would not be a good idea to go to Grant Corporation considering who I was now. What did Cindy want? Did something happen at Grant Corporation?
Thinking of this, I hurriedly went online and search for the news. However, there was nothing tumultuous regarding Grant Corporation online.
I leaned back into my chair, Cindy’s voice sounding in my ear.
If something big had happened, Cindy probably would not have called me. However, it was obvious that something big had happened judging from her tone.
While I was deep in thought, I already made my decision.
Grant Corporation.
It felt both familiar and strange to be standing in front of the building again.
