Nicky requested a two-day vacation from Theo. She had never asked for leave during her tenure at Grant Corporation. This time, it was probably to accompany her parents.
Nicky was not around, and I happened to go to Theo again to ask him to arrange some work for me. He simply asked me to follow up on the artificial intelligence project on Nicky’s behalf.
Fortunately, I had a chat with Drover about this before, so I got started pretty quickly. Still, I did not understand some of the more technical parts, so I had to look up some information once in a while.
After returning home, Theo was also rather considerate. He explained to me some of the relevant content in detail according to the project and I finally got a better understanding of the project.
As soon as I got busy at work, the nightmares no longer knocked on my door.
I slept well at night and woke up in a very good mood the next day.
I had just gone downstairs when I heard Caroline and Theo talking. I stepped forward and asked with a smile, "What are you two talking about?"
Caroline took a step closer to me and was about to speak but Theo stopped her.
Caroline only glanced at me before entering the kitchen.
My intuition told me that something had happened.
Turning my eyes to the man at the side, I tilted my head. "Theo, what’s the matter?" He took me to the dining hall and sat me down. "There were people making trouble for the guards at the door just now."
Theo’s tone was calm as if it was not a big deal.
After taking a bite of my bread, I said lightly, "Why would someone be making trouble? Who were they?"
"Director Doyle's parents."
Theo's reply startled me.
