The Woman From Hell

There was a cold look in Theo's eyes, and it gave one the feeling of being restrained.

Those eyes instilled fear with the way they stared.

I wanted to tell him off, but Delia was considerate. She patted my hand and shook her head at me. She then responded to Theo's words, "Is it because my agency is far away from here that you think I shouldn't be here, President Grant?"

She smiled softly before picking up the phone on the table and dialing a number. "Sissi, come in for a bit."

After a while, Sissi pushed the door open and entered, "Miss Owens, what's the matter?"

"Please tell President Grant why we're here."

"Oh." Sissi looked at Theo and explained, "Miss Lola arranged an advertisement shoot in a shopping mall near here. We just found a random restaurant to eat in after we were done. We still have more to shoot in the afternoon, so we didn't dare wander far." After she was done explaining, Delia added, "Okay, Sissi, you can go first." Delia's eyes remained on Theo after Sissi left. "Does that explanation satisfy you, President Grant?"

It was obviously just a chance encounter, but Theo made things so complicated.

I glared at Theo. "Are you satisfied now?"

"Please forgive me for overthinking things, Miss Owens." Theo knew he was wrong, and this was considered an apology from him.
