I did not say anything and closed my eyes to take in the scent on his body.
Theo woke up very early the next morning to go to work. I drove to the Louises' after having my breakfast.
I drove all the way to the villa's gate and stopped the car.
I did not really want to go in. I would surely be asked t o stay for lunch if I did, and if I refused, Petra and Grayson were bound to be sad.
At this very moment, I did not really want to see their sad faces, so I stayed at the gate for a few minutes before leaving
It was a bright sunny day today and the sun was particularly warm. I wondered if I should take a walk b y the river but eventually drove to Grant Corporation's building.
Grant Corporation's building was much grander than four years ago. Everything here was built through Theo's effort and hard work. He was a very outstanding man, and there was no doubt about it.
When I walked into Grant Corporation's building, the receptionist recognized me and came out to greet me." Mrs. Grant.”
Since returning to Whaldorf City from Zenon, scandals about me had never stopped. The employees of Grant Corporation surely paid extra attention to news about their boss. I was not surprised that they knew what I looked like.
The receptionist had probably given Theo a call to tell him that I was here, which was why I saw Theo as soon as I stepped out of the elevator.
He still had a pen in his hand and was probably checking documents earlier.
When I walked out of the elevator, he took me straight into his arms and asked with a smile, "Why are you suddenly here?"
I pursed my lips. "I got too bored at home."
"I hope you can keep feeling bored so you'll come to the company with me every single day."
This man was getting better at sweet-talking.
After entering the office, I asked him, "Is it okay if I take a shower? I'm sweating and it feels a little uncomfortable."
