The Woman From Hell -
Chapter 331
Chapter 331
Once was enough for what I said earlier. There was no way I would be able to say it again.
I did not know if he listened to what I said. My mind was getting chaotic. I leaned on the back of thesofa with my eyes closed. I quickly fell asleep.
When I woke up, I saw that Matthew was busy cooking in the kitchen. I let out a soft sigh. It lookedlike what I said yesterday was in vain.
After breakfast, Matthew offered to bring me to take a look at Magnificent Pictures Television.
I thought for a moment and said, "I'd like to start working."
My body had no health issues now, and I was ready to go back to work. I did not want to be alone athome. I would not be imagining things if I was busy.
Matthew did not oppose. He brought me to Magnificent Pictures Television.
As I had seemingly appeared out of nowhere and became the new president, coupled with the fact Iwas a woman, the employees of the company were all shocked. Matthew sent his assistant to workunder m e. Firstly, it was because he was afraid I might get bullied. Secondly, he wanted me tofamiliarize myself
with the company's operations.
The scale of Magnificent Pictures Television was a few times larger than Nectarine Entertainment. Iwas s o busy that I was almost running off my feet. When I was able to get some rest, I realized thatit had been a few days since I thought of those negative things.
When I got off work today, the assistant drove me to the condominium. I was handed a gift box."President Lane, President Zimmer asked me to give you this."
I was startled for a moment, and I took it helplessly.
Matthew had been sending me gifts during this period. He would not give them to me personally.Instead, he would give them to me through his assistant. When I was able to see him and wanted toreturn the gifts, he would change the topic. It made m e feel helpless.
"President Lane, please don’t feel burdened. After all, it’s a small token from President Zimmer.Besides, the cost of these gifts isn’t considered much for President Zimmer." I had gotten friendlywith the assistant these days, and he started teasing me.
I unfastened the seat belt and shot him a glance. "You sure know how to speak for him."
The assistant gave me a mischievous smile and did not say anything more.
When I was about to get out of the car, the phone in m y pocket vibrated. I took it out and saw it wasJerome calling. I choked.
Ever since the incident, I had never contacted Cecilia and Jerome. I was afraid that I would not beable to control my emotions. I was afraid that they would feel sad for me and worry about me.
Although I had no idea how Jerome found out about this phone number, after counting the days inmy mind, it was about time for Cecilia to give birth. Even i f Jerome had not called me, I would haveto call him anyway.
I took a deep breath and answered the call. "Jerome."
Jerome kept quiet for a long time before saying in a hoarse voice, "Wanda, Cecilia gave birtharound ten o’clock last night. The mother and daughter are safe."
"That’s good." There was a lump in my throat.
"Where are you?" Jerome’s voice was choking up." How are you and your baby?"
My heart trembled, and I suppressed the urge to cry. I opened the car door and got out. "Let's nottalk about m e. Where are you and Cecilia?"
"We’re in Salt City. She’s still sleeping now. I’ll let her talk to you when she's awake.”
"Alright." I held my phone tight. "I'm quite busy these days but I'll be free in a few days. I'll head toSalt City t o see her and the baby."
Jerome chuckled. "Don’t. It’s better to wait until Cecilia can walk. We’ll bring the baby to WhaldorfCity to see you."
"Sounds like a plan." I did not oppose it.
