Chapter 1190
The Woman From Hell
After leaving the hospital, I looked at Jordan and asked, "Do you have something to say to me, Mr.
Fredericks?"
Jordan stopped in his tracks. He put his hands in his trousers pockets and asked with a serious
expression, "You and Theo have made up?"
Why was this couple so concerned about this?
I helplessly smiled. "I guess you can say that."
"Did you walk me out on purpose just to ask this question, Mr. Fredericks?"
"Of course not.â Jordan raised his eyebrows. âDid Theo tell you any solutions regarding this
project?â
I pursed my lips. I understood what he meant by that.
It was not easy to get this project from the hands of many other competitors.
By right, Theo and Fredericks Corporations both had commendable abilities. There should not be
any hiccups in the project.
However, there had been two consecutive accidents since the start of the project until now.
In order to minimize losses, Grant Corporation should consider finding a new partner since the
project had just launched.
Jordan wanted me to get Theoâs current views on this matter.
I looked at Jordan and said seriously, "I understand what you mean, Mr.
Fredericks. I'll find a way to ask him."
I was still Fredericks Corporationsâ employee right now and the person in charge of the project. It
would be best if our partnership with Grant Corporation could g o on.
Therefore, I had to find out Theoâs views on this matter too.
Jordan smiled. "Thanks for the help, then.â
âYouâre welcome."
Jordan got me a ride, and the sky was dark when I got home.
I thought that Theo would have returned at this hour, but seeing that the villa was still dark, it
seemed that he had not returned yet.
I went upstairs to the room to do a quick cleaning up before going to the bathroom t o take a
shower.
After taking a shower, I sat on the bed while wiping my hair dry. I thought about the things that had
happened at the resort over the past two days.
No matter how I thought about it, everything that had happened just felt so out of place.
However, I did not have a clue at the moment. My mind became more frazzled the more I thought
about it.
I gently sighed and walked to the dressing table to sit down. I put on some skincare products.
I was so lost in thoughts that I did not hear Theo's footsteps.
I was shocked when he hugged me and nearly screamed.
"What are you thinking about? You were so absorbed in your thoughts," Theo asked with a smile.
"When did you come in?" I looked unkindly at him through the mirror. "Are you a ghost? Why do you
walk without a sound?â
Theo picked me up and sat on the chair, saying a little aggrievedly, "Be reasonable. I didnât walk
softly on purpose. You were clearly the one who was too absorbed in your thoughts and didn't hear
me."
Could he not call out to me first?
I glared at him, then rested my head on his chest. "I canât win an argument against you anyway. I
donât want to argue with you." Theo chuckled. "So what were you thinking about earlier?" "About the
project." I gently sighed. "I'm the person in charge. How can I not think about it when so many
things have happened?"
Theo smiled slightly. "Things have happened, and there's no use panicking now. Besides, the
money I make is for you t o spend. It's fine even if I lose it."
I reached out to stroke the stubble that had sprouted from his chin. I said a little helplessly, "That's
easy for you to say. That's tens of millions we're talking about. How many times can you afford to
spend that amount?"
Theo pinched my nose and said dotingly, "A s many times as you want. Go ahead and lose it all if
you want."
