The Woman From Hell -
Chapter 2641
The push promotion, sample release, and customer feedback were all proceeding in an orderly manner.
While I was checking the feedback cards in the office, Theo came in at some point and said, "I see you're busy."
He put his hands on the table and looked at me closely. Looking up to see him all of a sudden, I was startled. "Yes, but feedback is good. They're saying that Golden-O feels good to use and are asking when it'll hit the market." "You've worked hard." Theo was looking at me with a gaze like he was feeling sorry for me.
I reached out to wrap my arms around his neck and planted a kiss on his thin lips. Grinning, I replied, "You're still the one having the harder time."
Straightening his back, he fixed his suit and tie. "There's a reception tonight. Come with me?"
"Okay. It feels like I haven't accompanied you for a long time. Nicky was your companion the last time," I said casually as I sorted out the documents on the table. "Yes. Your participation this time with rectify your title."
I knew he had ulterior motives.
"What about my dress?"
"I've already asked Keith to go get it. He should be here in a while."
Keith entered with a gift box the moment he said that. "President Grant, here it is."
Theo accepted the gift box and opened it, revealing to me the dress inside. "A swan set. I think it suits you very well."
"This set is hard to get. It seems like you've been planning this for a long time, President Grant." I touched the dress, entranced by the delicate and smooth texture. "Come change in my office?"
"Alright."
There was a small room in Theo's office. I went there to change into the dress. The sparkling, black diamonds were eye-catching, and although it had a V-neck, it still looked reserved. Its design was also very careful. The end of the dress only trailed the ground slightly to create a slender image, making the wearer look taller.
"How do I look?" I asked softly while standing before Theo.
He looked at me and nodded. "Beautiful."
Perhaps it had been some time since I last faced Theo's scrutiny, so it made me feel a little uncomfortable.
Theo made his way toward me slowly and let down my hair. "Let's go, Madam."
"Okay." I walked out of the office with my arms around Theo's.
The dress was really eye-catching. It attracted a lot of attention when we went downstairs.
"Is President Grant taking President Lane to a banquet? They look so good together."
"Yeah. No wonder President Grant paid no mind to all those young girls outside With how beautiful
President Lane is, the rest can't
compare."
I blushed at their comments.
Noticing my expression, Theo turned to me. "I only set off your brilliance standing by your side."
"Shut it." I glanced up at him. "By the way, what kind of reception is tonight?"
"It's a global investment conference
by Prime Star. I'm not actually interested, but there are many. companies participating tonight, so it'll be good for me to take you there."
The issue with Delia had spread throughout the business circle. Despite him having issued a clarification, there were probably lot of people who were still in the dark about the reason. In order to bring this matter to an end, Theo must have thought hard about bringing me to this investment conference.
He had taken my feelings into account.
I looked at him. I was right to entrust myself to the man.
"If you keep looking at me like that, I'm going to replace it hard to hold myself back."
I looked away at that. Still smiling, I said, "I won't look at you anymore, then."
"I allow you three seconds."
"What a child."
It was true that men were children till the day they died.
