Chapter 380

I could see Cindy's face turning paler than before. I almost could not help but applaud Quinn'swords.

The situation became awkward at once. After Quinn left, Petra dragged Cindy away with an awfulexpression on her face. I went back with Matthew in a good mood.

"What a scary catfight," Matthew exclaimed.

I smiled and shot him a glance. "Things are way scarier than what you've seen."

Matthew did not say anything more. He just agreed and nodded his head.

The financial department had sent the statement. I went back to my office and focused on my work.

When it was about time to get off work, Theo called m e.

I was buried with work, so my tone did not sound friendly when I picked up the call. "What's thematter?"

There was a pause on the other end of the phone.

Then, a helpless voice rang out. "Looks like you're still i n a bad mood."

I responded with a softer tone and closed the folder that I was holding.

"When are you finishing your work?" There was still a hint of a smile in Theo's voice.

"I'm not sure." I leaned on the back of the chair and let out a sigh. "Have you finished your work?"

"Yes."

I lifted my arm and glanced at the watch on my wrist." Then you can go home first. You don’t haveto wait for me to have dinner."

"I'll wait for you." Theo hung up after saying that.

I was puzzled. Why did he want to wait? Was he waiting for me to go home or to have dinner withme?

There was still a lot of work. I could not be bothered to think so much anymore. I had to hurry upand continue with my work.

Seven o’clock.

I had finally finished everything. I dragged my exhausted body and left the office.

When I reached the ground floor lobby, I was surprised to see Theo sitting on the sofa.

I quickened my pace and walked toward him. "You meant you'd wait for me to get off work?"

Theo raised his brows. "What else?"

I pursed my lips and remained silent.

He stood up and took the bag that I was carrying in m y hand. "Let's go home."

"He really came to pick the president up. I thought I misheard him."

"I have to say, the president and President Grant look cute together."

"Yes, yes. President Grant has one of the most handsome faces in Whaldorf City. Our president isalso a goddess known for her beauty. What a gorgeous couple they are when they stand together."

"But I heard that President Grant is engaged to Petra White's daughter. What's his relationship withour president, then?"

"You mentioned that it’s something you heard. Who knows if it’s true or not? Based on howPresident

Grant is treating our president, it’s probably fake news."

I heard the employees surrounding us whispering among themselves. I curled the corners of mylips." You've made a monkey out of me."

"Should I be blamed for being charming?" Theo smiled helplessly.

How... shameless was he.

Back home, I went into the room with Theo to get changed.

Miss Woods and Miss Zuri were preparing dinner. When I was done, I went downstairs and sat inthe living room.

I received Matthew's call while waiting for dinner. He asked me to go to Salt City for a business trip.The assistant had already prepared everything that I needed to bring. Besides, the flight tickets toSalt City were booked as well. I just had to go straight to the airport tomorrow.
