Hearing me call her that, Delia’s expression instantly morphed. “What are you saying? I don’t get you.”
She looked away like she was deliberately avoiding my gaze.
Don stood where he was, his eyes fixed on me. “Why did you call me here?”
Such innocent eyes.
I smirked and glanced at Don who was calm and collected before looking back at Delia. “To reunite the husband and wife, of course.”
Just one sentence delivered a shock through Don and Delia.
Shannon covered her mouth with her hands, her big eyes wide open. "Oh God, what did I just hear?
"Don and Delia are a couple. Wanda, are you sure?"
Just like how Shannon was finding this unfathomable, I also had my doubts when I first found out about this.
However, it was indeed the truth.
Delia was trying her best to hide her panic. I caught her trembling fingertips clutching the corner of her clothes as she still tried to maintain her calm. "Isn't Don one of yours? Why are you pinning him on me? Didn't you send him to Grant Corporation to be an undercover agent? You—"
"I haven't even said anything about it yet. How did you know that, Miss Owens?" I narrowed my eyes and smiled at Delia.
Once one’s cool was disturbed, even their reason would be compromised.
It was obvious that Delia could no longer keep her calm. She wanted to retort back in a hurry, but her mouth was the leak.
