I gently sighed. "One can never leave one’s family in this life. Besides, if Mother learned that I had found m y parents yet I'm having such a hard time getting along with them, I'm sure she'd be heartbroken too."
Theo held my hand and said with a smile, "I’m glad you think that way."
When we arrived at Grant Corporation's parking lot, Theo and I got out of the car and took the president's elevator to the top floor of Grant Corporation’s building.
Those working on the top floor of Grant Corporation's building were top-notch elites. When they saw Theo and me, they all extended their greetings. "Good to see you, Mr. and Mrs. Grant."
I wore a smile on my face, which was really tiring. After walking into the office, I put away the smile on m y face and complained, "Looks like it isn’t that easy to be Mrs. Grant."
Theo wrapped his arm around my waist, his chuckle ringing out in my ears. "Come more often next time. You just need to get used to it."
I pursed my lips. “Forget it." "Why?" Theo raised his eyebrows. "You don't like
coming to work with me that much?"
If I said that I did not like it, then this man was bound t o not give me peace of mind, so I could only answer against my will, "I like it. How could I not like it?"
Theo knew that I was only appeasing him, but he merely snorted coldly and said no more. Maybe it was because he was in a rush to attend a meeting.
Keith walked into the office with a few documents in his arms.
Theo looked at me and said, “Why don't you wait for m e in the office? If you're tired, then go sleep in the lounge. I’ll come and accompany you after the meeting."
I nodded and watched as he and Keith left the office. I t was almost time for the annual holiday, and it was a ridiculously busy time.
After sitting on the sofa for a few minutes, I felt a little bored and planned to go for a walk.
After I left the office, I saw a woman walking toward m e with a smile plastered across her face.
I was a little stunned. This woman looked so familiar.
"Ms. Lane," she greeted warmly.
She must be someone I knew and that was why she was calling me Ms. Lane.
However, I could not recall in such a short period of time who she was. Hence, I could only politely greet
back, "Hello.”
