The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2382

It was almost 12 o'clock. Marius checked the time, and realizing it was late, he brought me back to the apartment. I said nothing along the way.

I felt much better after crying at karaoke just now despite still feeling a little uncomfortable.

I probably drank too fast earlier. Otherwise, I would not be feeling so bad.

The car soon came to a stop. We arrived at the apartment.

We got out of the car together. Marius brought me a glass of honey water from the kitchen. "Okay, it's getting late. Time to wash up and go to bed. You still smell so strongly of alcohol!"

I accepted the drink and drank half a cup. It made me feel a lot better.

"I don't feel as sick anymore. Marius, thank you for taking care of me tonight. I'll go back to the room, wash up, and then sleep. Good night!"

With that, I waved to him.

"Good night," Marius replied softly.

I went back to the room. I did not know if it was because I cried after drinking, but I felt insightful. Especially after meeting Delia during the day, I was even more certain that there was something off with her. The drugged wine at the banquet might have been her own doing.

She had already been scheming since the start.

My head was still a little muddled, and it hurt. I rubbed my temples. Forget it. I had best go to sleep first. I would think about the rest later on.

Thinking this, I changed my clothes. Under the influence of alcohol, I very quickly fell asleep.

Early the next morning, I showered and felt a whole lot better.

After having breakfast, I went to the company. I saw the employees casting strange glances at me the moment I entered.

I presumed that it should be because they had heard about the incident with Delia on the news, but I did not bother about it. "Alright, everyone. Let's do a good job."

After saying that, I went toward the office.

I noted that Shannon was already waiting for me inside the office the moment I got there.

She walked straight toward me when she saw me. "Wanda, are you okay? I'll always be by your side no matter what!" Shannon wanted to comfort me, but she did not seem very good at that.

"Shannon, I'm fine. Just let the news make its rounds. It's not like I can control it. Besides, I'm fine and the company is still running! We'll be screwed if I, the boss, keep slacking!" I said to Shannon with a smile. While I looked like I did not care on the surface, I was feeling more uncomfortable deep down than anyone else.

Shannon looked at me and was a

little relieved when she saw my relaxed expression. "That's good! Have you read the news? Grant Corporation's share price plummeted because of this. He's really having a hard time, but he deserves it for bullying you. It'd be

Vel

best if it drops some more!" Just like that, she kept complaining about

Theo next to me.

I had not seen any of this news, but after hearing it from Shannon, I also wanted to see what was going on.

"They were all sent out this morning?"

I asked Shannon while starting up the computer.

"Yeah. The financial news came up

jet

first this morning. The comments on the internet are still going strong. The share price has already fallen so much in just one day!" Shannon looked very happy to see Grant Corporation's shares fall.

I was aware that she was feeling happy about all this on my behalf.

I peered at the situation. The shares had indeed plummeted, falling off quite a few points right this morning. Most importantly, some of the pretty good projects that Grant

Corporation was working onhad

been snatched up by oth Onnel

ou

companies. Theo lost quite a few projects.

The consequences of Delia's interview did not look simple this time.

Seeing Theo's situation, my heart was a mess. I did not feel happy at all.

Although I made myself look like I did not care about Theo at all, I was still feeling worried for him deep down...
