Chapter 879

Elena sneered and said in a sarcastic tone, "It's true that the more outstanding the man, the blinder

he is when it comes to choosing his woman. I'm honestly deeply moved by your IQ. It's really

laughable that you dare to assert that she has no reason to push me when you clearly don't

understand what sort of relationship Celine and I share."

I pursed my lips and smiled. I was not mad at her words. "Alright. If you say so, then I'll take back

what I said and ask you just one question. Did you set this u p?"

"In what capacity are you interrogating me?"

Elena looked at me with cold eyes, and her words even harsher. "Theo Grant is my boss, not you.

He should be the one interrogating me."

I narrowed my eyes slightly. "Honestly, I'm not here to interrogate you but to comfort you.”

I found it hard to be gentle in the face of this thorny woman.

Elena sneered. "There's no need for that."

"Alright, then."

I shrugged. "I don’t care what sort of grudge you and Celine have, but what you're doing has

caused huge

losses to Grant Corporation. If this continues, I'll advise Theo to dismiss you. Grant Corporation isn't

a place for you to plot against each other."

Elena sneered, looking as proud as a peacock. "Do you think you have the ability to do that?"

I raised my eyebrows. "Let's wait and see, then."

I found no reason to continue the conversation with her attitude, so I got up and prepared to leave.

When I got to the door, the ice-cold voice of a woman rang out behind me. "You're not worthy of

him, Wanda Lane."

Those words were filled with disdain.

I was amused and turned around to ask her, "You think you're worthy of him, then?"

She snorted and said, "I heard that you’re an orphan. The only reason you could marry Theo is that

his grandma got muddle-headed and picked you. An outstanding man like Theo needs a compatible

partner. Besides, you seem to also suffer from mental illnesses, right? Your illnesses and your

seemingly nonexistent family background will only drag him down."

If I had heard these words in the past, I would probably feel inferior and sad, but it seemed like it

was not the case now.

I cast my eyes down and smiled, saying faintly, "Well, I'm interested to find out what you can offer

him, Ms.

Mandez."

She lifted her chin, looking as proud as she could. "My education, abilities, and appearance can

bring him a lot of things. We’re compatible, and I can keep up with him all the time. We can walk

side by side together."

After a pause, she continued to sneer. "You're merely a housewife. I'm more suitable for him than

you no matter how you look at it."

Were all the women who wanted to be a mistress these days so hard-headed?

She indeed had the capability to be so hard-headed, though it was merely so.

I had no plans of saying anything to strike her down o r say anything disrespectful. I merely smiled

slightly while saying, "I look forward to the day you take my place, then, Ms. Mandez."

I turned around and left the ward.

Celine was stunned for a moment when she saw me walking out.

There was a strange look on her face. She had probably heard my conversation with Elena.

Seeing that she was about to say something, I spoke first, "You should go in."

She nodded. "Can you wait for me downstairs, Ms.

Lane?”

I smiled. "Sure."

After going downstairs, I sat on a chair in the lobby and scrolled through my phone.

After a few minutes, I looked outside.
