Theo darted a glance at me and pulled out his phone to call his assistant. “Keith, come to West Mountain’s ring road to drive a car back.”He wore a dark countenance the whole way back and did not say a word. My anxiety allowed me to ignore the fact that he was angry, and I said, “Theo, if there really was a secondary car accident, there might still be traces of evidence at the scene.”After a very long time, he finally said, “I figured out the same thing. I checked it carefully earlier but didn’t find any trace of evidence.”My heart sank to the bottom of my stomach. Was I supposed to watch Cecilia go to jail and not do anything about it? No. I could not stand doing such a thing.Theo looked at me and after a very long time, he said, “Don’t get too anxious yet. I’ll introduce you to someone later.”“Are we going to see Cecilia?” I leaped up from my seat. I had no interest in anything else besides seeing her.“What could possibly change after you see her?” he looked at me and ask

“Wouldn’t it be inappropriate and disrespectful if I wore something so casual?” I was still a little worried.“This isn’t casual at all. We went the extra mile to get new clothes, after all.” He continued to speak in a righteous manner.“This looks so similar to the one I was wearing earlier—they’re both homewear.”“The difference is huge. Look, this dress has a collar but the one you had on earlier did not.”Just like that, Mr. Theo Grant had gone to the mall to shop for clothes, used his bodyguards to clear the place out, and ended up only purchasing a set of homewear.After getting into the car, I furiously said, “I’m mad, Theo.” This had been his first time taking me shopping, and I was tremendously disappointed.“Why?” He turned around to look at me, his face full of questions as though he truly did not understand my anger.“No one takes a woman shopping like that. I can’t believe you’re a company’s president!” I turned sideways, speechless.He was nothing like those domin

“Hahaha, this young lady is pretty shrewd, huh? You’re a good judge of character, accepting such a perfect lady as your goddaughter, Petra. Mr. Grant is really lucky to have such a clever and beautiful wife.” Mr. Zach happily raised his glass.Theo stood up and took the wine glass from my hands, giving Mr. Zach a professional smile. “Thank you for the kind words, Mr. Zach. My wife is pregnant and can’t drink, so I’ll toast on her behalf.”“You’re too polite, Mr. Grant. Cheers!” Mr. Zach clinked glasses with Theo with a wide grin.“Alright, you don’t have to worry anymore now. Since Mr. Zach has agreed to help you out, he’ll definitely get everything settled soon. Sit down and have something to eat. You’re pregnant, and you shouldn’t starve yourself.” Petra pulled me to my seat with a smile, sounding just like a loving mother.I finally breathed out a sigh of relief. I softly said, “Thank you, Petra.”She smiled, not saying a word, and turned around to chat with the others.After

Having said that, she packed up all sorts of snacks and fruits for me, as well as a thermos full of soup.I could not refuse, so I took everything. It would make a pretty good lunch, at least.Upon arriving at the office, Heidi reported that preliminary work was underway. The celebrities were all staying in the hotel and the director was giving them their final instructions.The first filming location was to be indoors, inside a shopping mall. To not disrupt the mall’s shops, the filming had been set to begin tomorrow night.Everyone was doing their own job, and there was nothing much I could help with.“Wanda…” Heidi did not leave after she finished reporting on work. She hesitated to continue.“Is there something difficult you want to say to me?” Seeing her reluctance, I had no choice but to prod her on it.“Oh, no…” Heidi immediately waved her hands. “It’s about work… Sigh, well, Newlight Media said that Sandy has to be the spokesperson, no matter what competition you decide

When Heidi came in, I was sitting on the couch, sweating profusely and my eyes a little unfocused.“What’s wrong, Wanda?” Frightened, she quickly rushed over.Her voice finally brought me back to reality. I looked up and said in a soft voice, “I’m okay. I was just a little cold earlier. Can you switch the heater off for me and grab me a glass of warm water?”Heidi brought me a glass of warm water and said worriedly, “Maybe I should take you to the hospital. You don’t look so good.”“I’ll be fine in a while. Go ahead and do what you need to do. I’ll rest for a while.” After drinking my water, I weakly laid back down on the sofa.All these years, I had tried to forget that. However, after a single phone call today, all those emotions were flooding back in again.Just then, the phone that I had tossed into a corner started ringing again.I was startled. I instinctively covered my ears in an attempt to block out the sound, but the phone would not stop ringing.I was too afraid to p

Did this woman have no other tricks besides this one? Did she not feel tired using the same trick every time?Even so, someone would always fall for her tricks.Take, for example, Zedd. He ran over and flipped me over, roaring, “What are you doing, Wanda Lane? Are you trying to kill her? Why are you such a vicious woman?”He turned around after saying those words, picking Cindy up and coaxing her, “Are you hurt, Cindy?”Cindy shook her head weakly and said softly, “I was just trying to say a few words to Wanda but didn’t expect her to suddenly push me to the ground…”The employees watching the fun had long disappeared without a trace.I rubbed my elbow and slowly stood up. In order to protect the baby, I hit my elbow on the ground quite hard during the fall earlier.Not far away, Theo’s entire body seemed to be encased in ice.He stood there without a word. I looked at him and said, “You think I tried to harm her too?”He looked at me, his dark pupils a little sinister. He sai

“What a coincidence, my girlfriend happens to be here. This will be easy, then. Look, I wasn’t lying!” Xander said to Ginny with a smug look on his face.Ginny looked me up and down before speaking with great certainty, “You’re lying. How can a person like her be good enough for you? She’s not your girlfriend at all.”Was I that bad? I could not help but look at myself.Indeed, because of my pregnancy, I was wearing flats and a loose cotton linen skirt. With my hair pulled up and no makeup on, I must look really old-fashioned and ugly.“I’m not lying to you. Look at her face, she’s the woman in the picture I keep in my wallet.” Xander no longer looked as helpless and anxious but was extremely smug at the moment.Ginny then studied my face carefully for a very long time without saying a word. Then, she harrumphed and walked away with a sad expression.This demon broke the heart of yet another girl. I felt a little guilty. Although I did not say a word from start to finish, I shoul

What was he doing here? Should he not be with Cindy?I was a little confused as to why he was always able to pinpoint my location every time.“Why didn’t you go home?” he asked with a dark countenance, his voice deep and low.I did not want to respond to him and wanted to close the door. He reached out to block it and took the opportunity to step in. With his hands in his pockets, he leaned against the door frame and stared at me.Not wanting to entertain him, I turned around and went back inside.“You’re not a kid, so stop your tantrums.” He came up and took my hand, saying, “Come home with me.”I laughed in anger when he said the word ‘tantrums’. “You think I’m throwing tantrums? What do you take me for, Theo Grant?”He actually believed in Cindy and sided with her without a single hesitation. Why could he not let me have some peace and insisted on coming over to torture me?Even though I was well aware that his recent changes were all because of the child, I still could not
