The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2260

The morning sun was always warm. I woke up from my sleep feeling full of energy.

I went down after washing up. Munchkin and Theo were already waiting for me in the dining room.

I took a seat and then glanced at Munchkin. "Don't you have to go back to school today, Munchkin?"

He nodded obediently. "Yes. Daddy will take me to school after breakfast. See you next weekend, Mommy."

"Okay, see you this coming weekend."

Munchkin took a bite of the sandwich, and while he was still chewing, he asked, "Can we spend the weekend with Mommy Delia?"

He seemed to be relying on Delia more and more now.

There was a sourness in my heart for some reason. She might look like Cecilia, but she was not her. Now, Munchkin was so dependent on Delia, even surpassing his dependence on me. That made me feel strange.

I looked at Munchkin, suddenly wanting to ask something. "Let me ask you something. If you can only choose one person between Mommy Delia and me, who would you choose?"

This question put Munchkin in a difficult situation.

His small face wrinkled, and he pointed at me like an adult throwing an accusation. "When did you get so coy?"

"No matter. I want to know the answer. Tell me, is it so difficult to choose?"

If it were back then, Munchkin would definitely choose me without hesitation, but he was actually hesitating now.

Munchkin looked like he was done with me and said, "Of course, I choose you, Mommy."

This answer made me a little happy, and I could not help the corners of my lips curling. "Oh? Really?"

"Of course. No matter what, Mommy Delia is an Owens, an outsider. I'm a Lane, and I'm Mommy's child." Munchkin's big eyes were piercing, and his words were firm.

I smiled with satisfaction. "Okay, considering your attitude, I'll trust you."

Theo looked at me. "Why?"

"You won't understand."

After breakfast, Theo and I sent Munchkin to school. Theo then took me to Green Orange.

I went upstairs after watching his car leave.

The moment I entered the company, I saw the secretary walking toward me. "President Lane, Mr. Anders is waiting for you in the conference room."

He came directly to the company again.

"I see."

After pouring a glass of water, I went to the small conference room. Cole again chose to sit in the same spot. He smiled when he saw me. "When do you plan on expanding the company, President Lane? This meeting room is very depressing." Cole straightened his suit.

I looked around the conference room and smiled slightly. "You're right, Mr. Anders, but Green Orange is still in the development stage and isn't stable yet. I think it's better for us to avoid major fanfare for now. If you think my place is small, why don't we make an appointment

outside next time?"

Hearing this, Cole looked at me with more interest. "You don't seem to be as courteous to me as you were before, President Lane."

I froze for a moment. My words seemed to have slipped just now.

I coughed a few times before

эк

smiling slowly. "I'm sorry, Mr. Anders. I'm watching a TV show recently, and the heroine in it talks like this. I was unconsciously influenced. Please forgive me."

"Oh, really? I thought it was in your nature. It sounded very smooth just now, after all. You looked very much at ease." Cole pointed out to me, his words playful. Damn, he was seeing through me.

Probably noticing the stied

expression on my face, Cole said again, "It's okay, I'm not one to stick with the formalities. You don't have to be so nervous, President Lane."

"I could also tell that about you."
