The Woman From Hell

Chapter 863

I gently sighed. "One can never leave one’s family in this life. Besides, if Mother learned that I had found m y parents yet I'm having such a hard time getting along with them, I'm sure she'd be heartbroken too."

Theo held my hand and said with a smile, "I’m glad you think that way."

When we arrived at Grant Corporation's parking lot, Theo and I got out of the car and took the president's elevator to the top floor of Grant Corporation’s building.

Those working on the top floor of Grant Corporation's building were top-notch elites. When they saw Theo and me, they all extended their greetings. "Good to see you, Mr. and Mrs. Grant."

I wore a smile on my face, which was really tiring. After walking into the office, I put away the smile on m y face and complained, "Looks like it isn’t that easy to be Mrs. Grant."

Theo wrapped his arm around my waist, his chuckle ringing out in my ears. "Come more often next time. You just need to get used to it."

I pursed my lips. “Forget it." "Why?" Theo raised his eyebrows. "You don't like

coming to work with me that much?"

If I said that I did not like it, then this man was bound t o not give me peace of mind, so I could only answer against my will, "I like it. How could I not like it?"

Theo knew that I was only appeasing him, but he merely snorted coldly and said no more. Maybe it was because he was in a rush to attend a meeting.
