Chapter 461 So Bad

The convoy got back to Kedora. As soon as the bus left the highway, Jack picked up Theodore and Phoebe at the intersection.

In the black Bentley, Lawton sat in the front, updating Theodore on the company's status over the past few days. After finishing, he glanced at Phoebe.

Theodore noticed and frowned. "Anything else?"

Lawton hesitated, then Theodore's phone rang from the armrest between the seats.

Phoebe, catching a glimpse of the caller ID - Vanessa, felt a slight sinking in her heart.

Theodore glanced at Phoebe but still answered the call. Vanessa's gentle voice came through. "Theodore, I heard you're back in Kedora. I need to see you; there's something we need to discuss in person." "What is it?" Theodore's voice was icy.

Vanessa hesitated. "I can't talk about this over the phone. Let's meet in person, either at the company or my place."

Theodore replied, "I'll come to the company."

He hung up, gripping the phone tightly, and looked at Lawton. "Is there an issue with Queen Entertainment?"

Lawton hesitated. "Miss Fitzroy will explain."

Theodore frowned deeply and turned to Phoebe, who was staring out the window. Over the past few days, they'd been delivering supplies, and she had almost forgotten about Noah and Claire's termination contracts. Vanessa must be contacting Theodore because of this contract thing.

Theodore hurried to the company. As he got out of the car, a gust of cold air swept in, but Phoebe stayed seated.

Theodore leaned against the car door and said, "You've worked hard these past few days. Go home and rest; I'll be back later."

Phoebe nodded.
