The Woman From Hell

Chapter 2590

"shouldn't you apologize for barging in so suddenly, President Lane?" Silas looked at me with sharp eyes.

That gaze of his was clearly mocking me.

I gulped, my throat feeling itchy. I was unable to utter a word for a long time.

The people present included Silas, Marius, Sylvester, and some others who I did not know.

Wait, if they were celebrating here, how could Theo not be present?

I closed my eyes. What one feared would eventually make its appearance. His arrival had been quite coincidental.

Theo walked past me and entered the room, taking a seat at his place. It was only then that I realized that their seats were particular to each other. Theo was able to locate his own without even looking for it. "How long do you plan to drag this out, President Lane?" Silas' voice sounded again.

I pursed my dry lips. Beside me, Shannon tugged on my sleeve as if signaling me to leave immediately and asking why I should care about their opinions.

I wanted to do that too, but I could not. I would undoubtedly give Silas more leverage if I did.
