Chapter 726
The Woman From Hell
"Thatâs impossible!" Serena kept shaking her head. " Quinn told me that she's only an orphan and
Theoâs grandmother kindly took her in. She asked Theo to take care of her. Why else would Theo
be pestered by her for so many years?"
Cassey raised her eyebrow. "Youâre talking about Cindy, right?"
Seeing the dazed look on Serena's face, Cassey mocked. "You can go online and read if what I said
was true. I guarantee that you'll find the answer immediately.â
It was meaningless for three women to gather and bicker about the past, so I looked at Cassey and
said," That should be enough. It's time for me to go pick Munchkin up from the kindergarten."
Cassey glanced at the time. "Stay here. I'll ask the driver to pick him up. I have things to say to
you."
Cassey was quick to act and pulled out her phone to call the driver. "Which kindergarten?"
I held my forehead helplessly. "Song of Wind."
After hanging up the phone, Cassey said with a smile," Don't worry, I'll make sure that he'll reach
home safe."
I looked at Serena, who was sitting on the ground, and gently sighed. "If you could just live an
honest life from now, no one will give you any trouble."
"How did you offend Quinn, though?" Cassey asked, looking at me.
I shrugged. "She doesnât want me to be with Theo."
"I think she's not wrong to think that way." u 99
Cassey looked at Serena and said contemptuously, " You're an adult now, so please think like one.
Youâre being used as a weapon yet you're still helping her out."
She then looked at the two secretaries after saying that. She frowned. "Are you planning to stand
here and watch all day? Someone is trying to force her way into the presidentâs office. Not only did
you not stop her but youâre also not calling security. Are you hinting Mr. Grant that itâs time to
change secretaries now?"
After hearing what Cassey said, the secretaries immediately apologized and called the security
guards over.
Serena no longer looked as aggressive as when she came. Like a kitten soaked in the rain, she
was completely down in the dumps. She left compliantly with the security guards when they arrived.
Cassey and I were alone. I pointed at the lounge. "I'm
tired of standing."
Cassey twitched her mouth. "It's been three years since we last met and you've become fragile
now?"
I chuckled. "Not fragile but old. I'm not as physically fit as I used to be anymore."
"Hah.â Cassey let out a mocking laugh.
We entered the lounge. After the secretary served us tea and went out, Cassey said, "You don't
treat me as a friend, huh? You left and came back without telling m e."
I helplessly sighed. âBe more understanding."
She twitched her mouth and said, "I heard what happened back then. I'm sure no one would've
been able to accept that. So what's up with you getting back together with Theo again?â
How was I supposed to start? For a moment, I did not know how to reply to her question.
Seeing that I remained silent, she sighed and stopped asking. "My brother knows that you're back.
What do you plan to do?"
"Your family and I have nothing to do with each other. I had no intention of getting involved with your
family since the beginning. I returned to Whaldorf City mainly to give my son a better education. As
for the rest, I don't want to consider them."
If it were not for letting Munchkin have a better future, I would rather stay in Zenon forever. Whaldorf
City was simply too chaotic and unsettling.
She frowned, looking a little unhappy. "But you have the Louisesâ blood, after all. That's an
unchanging fact."
I looked at her, not exactly emotional. "I have used my child's life to repay their kindness for giving
birth to m e, isnât that enough?"
She sighed. "Youâre still not able to let go after all."
After a pause, she made no mention of this matter anymore and looked at me, saying, "Iâm getting
married in November. Remember to attend and don't keep me waiting."
I was stunned. "Who are you getting married to?"
"Youâll know when you go."
