The Woman From Hell
Chapter 2433

I chose to conceal it this time.

I did not tell Shannon what Theo and I discussed today.

"You saw how Delia came to the company to cause trouble. I don't think this is gonna end when I go back."

I feigned helplessness. I propped my head on my hands and let out a long sigh.

"Delia might have more things to say if I go back now."

I tried to put this in the lightest possible terms.

I did not want Shannon worrying too much because of me, after all.

"You know I don't want to waste my time on her. Arguing with a person like that is a waste of time."

Shannon could not agree anymore with what I said. She nodded repeatedly. "You're right. That woman is so annoying. It's better for you to stay at the company than go back and quarrel with her. After seeing enough of that woman, I now feel that these project documents have become more beautiful!"

Shannon took advantage of the situation and sat beside me.

"Why don't I accompany you and work overtime at the company for a while? I have nothing to do when I go back anyway."

I smiled and looked at Shannon. The haze that lingered in my heart before dissipated quite a lot.

It was indeed great to have a friend by my side at a time like this.

At least it would make me feel like I was not alone.

With her company, time passed, and the sky was gradually turning dark.

Very soon, we were the only two left at the company.

I sat until I was sore. Looking up from the document, I realized that it was already ten o'clock at night.

It was more or less time to go home.

"Shannon, let's go. It's about time."

"Ah?"

Only then did Shannon look up from her document dazedly.

"How did the sky get so dark so soon? I didn't even realize."

She looked down and glanced at the time on her phone. "It's already 10:30!

"But you'll definitely not bump into Delia now if you go back!"

The expression on Shannon's face soon turned bright and happy after a moment of disorientation.

She held my hand with a smile on her face.

"Come. Let's go back and rest!"

After saying goodbye to Shannon, I quickly made my way back to the villa.

The entire villa looked quiet. It was entirely pitch-black apart from the light at the door.

I could not help but recall days of the past.

No matter how late I used to return home, the lights would always be left on waiting for me.

That man would be there too.

Yet now...

I smacked my head hard.

What was I thinking? This was no time for me to be thinking nonsense.

I wanted to convey to Delia that I had had a falling out with Theo.

Feigning nonchalance, I walked in

with a cold depression. I did not even linger for too long and immediately went upstairs tomy room.

Not long after that, there was a faint sound from below.

I knew very well deep down that my goal had mostly been achieved.

Delia already knew about the conflict between Theo and me.

I was just not sure yet if she believed it or not.

However, this would all have to wait for the next day. All would be revealed then.
