Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1256

"Wait for a moment." My expression changed.

Theo stopped walking and looked at me worriedly. He asked, "What’s wrong?”

I smiled awkwardly and said, "Wait for me over here. I'll head to the washroom."

This was way too sudden.

Ten minutes later, I came out of the washroom and bumped into Elena.

She was washing her hands. When she saw me, she grabbed some tissue and wiped her hands. She then spoke to me with a look of distaste on her face, "Wanda Lane, you player. I don’t care what you do with other men, but I poured in all of my effort into this project. If you dare to ruin it,

I won't let you off easily."

I sneered and said, "This project belongs to Grant Corporation. I care about it more than you do. After all, it's my family business.”

Elena's expression grew nastier as she said, "I underestimated you in the past. I thought that you caught Mr. Grant’s eye just because you looked similar to her. It seems that you have pretty smart tricks up your sleeve. Otherwise, Ms. Reed wouldn't have lost to you.”

I laughed lightly and placed my hands under the tap. "Ms. Mandez, I really do admire your work capabilities and your seriousness when it comes to working.

However, I still find your personality rather questionable outside of work.

"I'm not as capable as you are, but I'm not as useless as you're making me out to be.

I'm lucky to be able to marry Theo, but do you think that our marriage could've lasted for ten years if I was just lucky? You're prejudiced against me, so you'll always find that I'm lacking no matter what I do. However, you aren't Theo Grant or everyone else. Your view of me isn't representative of how everyone else views me."

Elena huffed coldly and said, "Don’t try to make things sound better than they are. I don't believe that a man will take a liking to a woman without any capabilities unless she used some special tricks on him.

Otherwise, how can Mr. Zimmer fall for a married woman like you?"

I burst out into laughter and said, "Ms. Mandez, don't you find what you said funny? Based on what you said, does that mean that women without any special capabilities don't deserve to be loved?
