The Woman From Hell

Shannon learned through interviewing the company personnel that Kevin had been to the company and that his signature was on the visitor's list. He and Zelda left the company after that, and someone caught them acting intimately in the parking lot. Unless they had an ambiguous relationship, all this could not be explained. Coupled with the fact that Zelda was going to be partnering up with New Leaf this time, it was not difficult to guess that she was helping out her lover.

Zelda was over 30 years old but still had not found a partner. She finally found herself a young man now, and naturally, she would want to hold on to him.

Outsiders were unaware of this, so she could do it all without anyone noticing. She did not expect me to intercept halfway. Of course, she was afraid. That was why she accepted my idea.

"Regardless, the matter is finally resolved and we managed to keep the partnership." Shannon smiled at me. "So, we can have fun for the remainder of our time."

"How old are you to be thinking about having fun all the time? Does your child not miss you?"

The childish look on Shannon's face eased a little at the mention of her child. She slowly let out a breath. "Of course, but accompanying you is also important right now."

"Don't worry, I'm fine. You can go back in two days. Your child needs you most at this time."

I also did not want Shannon to miss her child's childhood because of me.

Shannon understood what I meant and nodded. "I got it. I'll accompany you for a few more days."

"Alright!"

My mind was hung up on the children while we were on our way back.

Based on what Drover said the night before, Marius would have definitely gotten the children out by now. However, why did he not update me on anything?
