Chapter 1066
I thought she was just going to show her face, but little did I know, she immediately took them intothe restaurant and said to the waitress with a face full of smiles, "Add two more sets of tableware,please."
After that, she greeted Theo and Elena with extra enthusiasm and sat down.
The chairs in this restaurant were all short stools. They were very inconvenient for ladies wearinglong skirts.
Elena happened to be wearing a long skirt. Shannon saw that the hem of her skirt was touching thefloor and said apologetically," I'm really sorry, Ma'am. I forgot you're wearing a long skirt. I’ll ask thewaitress to grab you a chair right away.”
She called the waitress after saying that.
The waitress quickly grabbed a chair and brought it over. The table was not very high, so a tallperson like Elena would seem out of place sitting on a chair like that. Coupled with the fact that shewas dressed beautifully today with her back and shoulders exposed, she seemed particularlystriking to others.
After all, this was not a high-end restaurant. Most of the customers were just local tycoons whowere not very sophisticated, so they would not shy away from staring at a beautiful lady like Elena.That would inevitably make her uncomfortable.
Sensing her discomfort, I looked at Shannon and said, "Eat up. I'm going back t o the office afterthis."
It was complete torture to dine in this atmosphere.
Shannon seemed to have turned a deaf ear t o my words and asked Theo, "Mr. Grant, is thisbeautiful lady your secretary?”
She continued after a pause, "This is my first time meeting such a beautiful woman apart fromWanda."
Was this woman complimenting me or setting me up?
Theo raised his eyes to look at me and said faintly, "She's the head of Grant Corporation’sintelligence team."
A very simple introduction, nothing superfluous.
"Is that so?" Shannon looked at Elena." You're truly capable. With your good looks and capability,I’m sure you have a boyfriend, right?'
Elena smiled faintly. "Not yet."
Shannon put on an incredulous expression. "No way. How can you not have a boyfriend whenyou're so beautiful?"
She asked a little curiously, "Do you have a crush, then?"
Elena pursed her lips and did not answer.
Shannon giggled cheekily. "What's your type, then? I can introduce you to someone."
Elena subconsciously glanced at Theo, then lowered her eyes and said, "I'm not sure either."
"No way."
Shannon deliberately put on an exaggerated expression. "My mother told m e that girls must have agoal when searching for a boyfriend. I think a beautiful and talented lady like you should replacesomeone like Mr. Grant. Only then will it be a good match. Take Wanda and Mr. Grant, for example.Don't you think they look exceptionally good together?"
Elena nodded slightly, the expression on her face becoming a little unnatural.
Seeing that she had little to say, Shannon and Theo started talking. "Let me introduce myself to you,Mr. Grant. My name's Shannon Collins, and I’m Wanda's best friend. We were in such a hurry whenwe last met, so I haven't gotten the chance to introduce myself to you."
Having said that, she reached out to shake hands with Theo.
She had too many things to say and was only the one speaking during the meal.
"Mr. Grant, are you guys planning to live separately now that Wanda is working here?"
Shannon suddenly asked this question.
Theo's pitch-black eyes fell on me as he said softly, "No, I'll be wherever she is.”
"Wow!” Shannon covered her mouth, saying enviously, "That’s so sweet!"
