Chapter 1041
The Woman From Hell
Seeing her running toward the other floor, I laughed helplessly. "What a flirt."
Girls liked handsome men, and it was probably similar to how men always liked 18-year-old girls. It
was natural.
After going upstairs to the pantry and opening the insulated bag to take a look, I saw medication for
gastric. Even the food packed was good for upset stomachs.
Cally walked past the pantry and came in when she saw me inside.
She took a look at the lunch box in the insulated bag and asked with a smile, "Your friend sent this?"
I nodded. "She happened to be free today, so she made some food and sent it over. Want to have
some together?"
"No." Cally raised the lunch box in her hand. "I brought lunch."
She continued after a pause, "You and Mr. Fredericks enjoy it!â
I laughed. "You too."
When I returned to the office, Jordan was still busy
working. When he heard someone walking in, he thought someone was here to deliver documents.
He said without even looking up, "Put the documents on the coffee table."
I pursed my lips and noticed that the milk in the cup o n the desk had been drunk. I said with a
smile, "The milk isn't so bad, right?"
Jordan looked up at me and smiled slightly. "It really i s pretty good."
Seeing the insulated bag in my hand, he asked with raised brows, "What are you holding?"
"Lunch, of course." I walked up to the coffee table and sat down. I put the insulated bag on the
coffee table." My friend delivered it and prepared a portion for you too. I think itâs going to be good.
Want to have it together?"
Jordan put down the pen in his hand and got up. He walked over while asking, "Shannon delivered
it?"
I was a little surprised. "How did you know?"
Jordan laughed. "You donât have a lot of friends here, s o no one would be free enough to deliver
food to you. Sheâs the most likely one."
There seemed to be nothing wrong with his reasoning. It was just that his words were not exactly
pleasant to hear.
I smiled helplessly and opened the insulated bag to
take out the gastric medication. "Keep this gastric medicine and remember to take it when you have
gastric pains next time."
Jordan raised his brows. "You told Shannon to buy it?"
I brushed my nose and said a little unnaturally, "I guess you can say that."
Jordan took the medicine and thanked me. He then sat down on the sofa.
I took out the lunch box from the insulated bag and planned to eat as soon as I opened it.
Jordan picked up his cutleries and glanced at me, asking mildly, "You met Theo last night?"
I froze, not sure how to reply to his question.
Seeing that I was silent for a long time, Jordan took a few bites of the food and said, "Recently
there's a plot o f land being tendered. Although it's a pretty good plot o f land, Grant Corporation can
do without it. Theo didn't have to personally make the trip but he still did."
I pursed my lips, not intending to respond.
Seeing that I was keeping silent, Jordan frowned slightly. He said with slight displeasure, "He has
gotten his hands on the plot of land now and needs a partner for subsequent development, so heâll
be holding a bidding event this evening."
