Chapter 788

The Woman From Hell

With nearly 100 million dollars wired into his account, Zimmer Corporations should be able to get

through this crisis safely.

"Does Theo know that you remitted this money to m e?" Matthew's voice became a little hoarse.

I pursed my lips. "He doesn't."

The company that Grandma transferred in my name had been developing well over the years

thanks to Theo’s reputation. The money remitted to m y account annually was quite substantial.

However, I had never touched the money inside the account. Hence, I had saved plenty over the

years.

Now that Grant Corporation and Zimmer Corporations were both suffering a crisis, giving this

money to Matthew was considered returning him the favor of saving my life back then.

There was a sneer from the other end of the phone. His voice was extremely indifferent. "You're so

cruel, Wanda."

Cruel?

I disagreed. I had owed him this favor for four years and always felt quite uneasy about it. He did

not lack anything before this, so I had no way of returning the favor. Now, both corporations were

suffering a crisis, With Grant Corporation being much well off compared to Zimmer Corporations,

Grant Corporation would be able to survive this crisis. It was just that they would have to suffer a

little.

Though this was not necessarily the case with Zimmer Corporations. Before they were a listed

company, Zimmer Corporations was a family business. Moreover, as Marcus Zimmer got older, he

dared not aggressively expand the business. Hence, they had been in a state of stagnation all these

years.

It was not until Matthew took over and the men fought it out that they were finally on par with each

other.

Matthew used two years to push Zimmer Corporations into a listed company. Due to the short

timeframe, even though Zimmer Corporations was able to gain small wins from several small

disputes between them, Zimmer Corporations' risk of disintegrating overnight i n a real showdown

between the two was no less than 7 0%.

Matthew was in dire need of this money, so I gave him enough to pay back his favor from back then.

After hanging up the phone, I felt an unprecedented sense of relief wash over me.

I could not sleep, and unsure of what to do, I switched on the TV. I planned to watch it for a while.

At this moment, I received a text from Liz.

She wanted to meet me, and I was a little hesitant.

My encounter with Liz on my trip to France last time was an ill-fated one. If we had not met each

other, then things would at least be less awkward when we saw each other. We would not say

hurtful things to each other.

Though we were once such good acquaintances and hit it off quite well, it was hard not to feel

uncomfortable now that we were meeting up with our awkward identities.

After considering it over and over again, I put down m y phone and did not text back.

When Theo walked in, I was looking at the TV in a daze. I did not notice him coming in at all.

It was only until he had picked me up by the waist did I come back to my senses and meet his deep,

dark eyes.

He said in an exceedingly soft voice, "What are you thinking about?”

He kissed my forehead. He was full of adoration after saying that.

At this moment, I was already seated on his lap. I rested my face on his chest. "I miss you."

His dark eyes flashed, looking very attractive. His slightly warm yet cool lips fell on mine, and his

voice was a little hoarse. "What about me do you miss?”

I laughed, my mood suddenly becoming very good. "I miss how you're always so nice to me."

He chuckled and embraced me tighter. "If you know that I’m always so nice to you, then you should

be a little nicer to me too."

I nodded with a smile. "Okay."

Theo pecked me on the lips. "What do you want to have for lunch? I'll ask Keith to buy it for you."

"Anything." I rested my head on his shoulder, feeling a little lazy. "What do you want to eat?"
