Her Seven Little Bodyguards

Chapter 827

Thomas still missed the time when Vania would wear a playful and smug expression, which was why his tone was tinged with agony as he said, "There's no need to be polite with me. You just need to recuperate well." He understood that there were no words left to exchange between them, so he got up and left.

"You have to recuperate well too since you've covered for me." Vania voiced words of concern during their farewell. She meant nothing more than to express her gratitude.

However, Thomas thought otherwise. She still cares for me. She truly is not a heartless person. With a smile, he immediately replied, "I will do that. I'll come back another day to visit you." Then, he left her office. On the way down, one could see he left a much more relaxed person than he came.

On the other hand, Vania only blinked dumbfoundedly at her office door and thought, What just happened? Why did his mood change so abruptly?

"Boss? What is Thomas doing here?" Linda asked as she glanced in the direction of where the man left. Since the man looked to be on cloud nine, she couldn't help feeling a vague sense of discord about the situation. Could it be regarding Yvonne?

Vania pointed at the medicine on the table. "He said he was just here to visit."

"So why is he so happy about it?" Linda was slightly curious since Thomas seemed to have left a different man. Next, she asked, "Could he be happy because you're sick and had to be in a wheelchair? That's not it, right?" Her thinking was biased, so she assumed that the man was feeling satisfied with her boss' misfortune.

At that, Vania shot a glance at her assistant and wondered just why she was jumping to conclusions so swiftly. The person who should be feeling joy over this should be Yvonne instead. After all, Thomas did cover for her back then, so Vania thought it was illogical to assume he would be joyful over this. "You can put down your tin foil hat now. Did you already finish what I've asked you to do?"

Reeling in her cheeky expression, Linda replied in a professional manner, "I've taken care of it. We're just awaiting your orders now."

Vania had already made arrangements to deal with Yvonne's follow-up move, as she deduced that the latter would bring up the so-called evidence to falsely accuse her. After a brief thought, she smirked and said, "Remember to register my film for the festival. The results don't matter since it's mainly to make someone happy." Since Yvonne had made the first move, no one could fault me for making my own countermeasures as well, right?

"I understand." Linda smiled smugly. "Boss, then how should we deal with Kiki?" Linda couldn't even stand the tweet which was basically insulting Vania, let alone the outrageous Kiki. Hence, she wanted her boss to quickly do something about Kiki.

However, Vania replied without a thought, "Why should we be worried about some pawn?"

Linda grew slightly anxious. "I'm not saying we should be worried. However, that woman is just too much with her words. Shouldn't you teach her a lesson?"

"It's only if we choose to ignore her that she can continue to do her work for Yvonne." Vania planned to use her as bait to lure out the big fish.

"Oh." Linda realized what Vania's plan was.

"Alright, back to work."

"Yes."

...

Kepler Residence.

"Thomas, where have you been?" Yvonne asked as she stood by the entrance, as though she had been waiting for his return.

"Something came up." Since Thomas didn't expect Yvonne to suddenly question him, his tone was slightly unnatural when he was answering her. Afraid that she would notice his odd behavior, he went past her and sat himself down on the sofa in the living room before pouring himself a cup of tea.

With her arms crossed, she asked in an upset tone, "Thomas, are you hiding something from me lately?"
