Chapter 1099
The Woman From Hell
I went upstairs to knock on the door but received no response even after knocking for a long time.
Worried about him, I opened the room door.
The room was empty, and the blanket on the bed was neatly folded, looking nothing like someone
had slept on it.
Did he not come back the whole night?
Did he stay at Shannon's place last night?
I could not help but sigh at how rocket-fast the relationship between the two of them was
progressing.
After going downstairs, I became troubled when I looked at the breakfast on the table.
I could not finish all the food alone, and the rest would go to waste.
Thinking what a waste it would be, I packed up the leftovers and took them with me, hoping to give
them to any of the employees in the office who had not had breakfast.
After leaving the villa, I saw a car parked next door at the villaâs gate and squinted m y eyes. I
quickly hurried over and entered the front passenger seat.
Sitting in the driverâs seat, Keith looked dumbfoundedly at me, not expecting me to suddenly get in.
I looked at him and said with a smile," Good morning, Keith."
Keith came back to his senses and quickly greeted me, âGood morning, Mrs. Grant."
"Have you had breakfast?"
Keith slowly shook his head.
What a coincidence.
I chuckled and handed him the breakfast i n my hand. "Eat while it's hot."
Keith pursed his lips. "Thank you, Mrs. Grant."
He did not eat it, and when Theo got in, he handed the breakfast to him. "Mrs. Grant made you
breakfast, Mr. Grant. Eat it while itâs hot."
My my, Keith was no longer a clueless young man.
It was only then did Theo realize that I was sitting in the front passenger seat. He was a little
stunned, then took the breakfast from Keith's hands and said faintly, "Go to South City first."
He opened the bag containing the breakfast and started eating after saying that.
Jordan did not come home last night, so I could only hail a cab to work this morning. Hence, I chose
to cadge a ride in Theo's car.
I thought he would go to the site, but since h e was not going, I could only say goodbye.
Seeing that Keith was about to drive, I quickly said, "I thought you were going to the site. Since
you're not going, then I'll get off."
I was about to get out of the car after saying that.
Sitting in the backseat, Theo suddenly started coughing a little loudly.
I turned around to look at him and could not help but say with concern, "Hurry up and drink some
water."
Theo took the mineral water and looked at Keith while he drank.
Keith immediately took the hint and said t o me, "We're going to the site, Mrs. Grant. Weâre just
dropping by South City to handle some things. If you're not in a hurry, then come with us. Itâs hard to
get a ride around here."
I was a little skeptical. "You're really going t o the site?"
I hope they were not going to the site because of me. If so, I could not afford to take this ride.
Keith nodded. "It's true. Why would I lie to you? The project just launched, so Mr.
Grant has to go and personally take a look."
I glanced back at Theo and saw him eating
his breakfast elegantly as though he did not hear our conversation. I did not say anything else.
It was indeed hard to get a ride around here. In order not to suffer, I could only be a little shameless.
I looked at Keith and said with a smile," Thanks a lot, then."
âDonât mention it, Mrs. Grant."
South City was not far from here and we arrived in 20 minutes.
