Chapter 723


    I was still thinking about it when Theo woke up.


    He stroked my face. "I''m going to the meeting."


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Okay."


    Theo stood up and smoothed out his clothes, asking slowly and elegantly, "Did you receive the info


    already?"


    Keith did not keep anything from me and said straight away, "All the info has been sent to me. I’ll


    send them to yourptop during the meeting."


    Theo''s voice was cold and indifferent. "After the meeting, you''ll tell Mason to temporarily hand over


    his current work to Zedd. He''ll focus on this project for now."


    "Yes."


    Seeing that he was about to leave, I got up and said," Wait up."


    I twitched my mouth. "Your tie is crooked.”


    He smoothed out his clothes for nothing just now.


    "Do it for me, then," Theo leaned over and said with a smile.


    I looked helplessly at him and reached out to fix it for


    him.


    When I was done, I pushed him and said, "Go on now."


    After he left, Iy on the sofa and nned to take a nap. I was just about to fall asleep when I heard


    amotion outside.


    One of the voices sounded quite familiar, so I got up and walked out the door.


    After opening the door, I poked my head out and looked to my left. I froze.


    It was Serena. Not much time had passed since west met, but she had changed drastically. She


    was no longer as delicate and beautiful. Her hair was loosely tied; herplexion was sallow; her


    countenance was haggard. However, she was d in good-quality clothes, though they probably


    seemed cheap because she was not in good spirits.


    There were two secretaries standing in her way, stopping her from moving forward. "You didn''t


    make a n appointment, Ms. Zoel. We can''t let you in."


    Serena gritted her teeth and said, "Tell Theo that I want to see him. He’ll see me."


    Themotion should not go on. After all, this was a bigpany and the secretaries had work to


    do too.


    However, I should not be interfering in these matters. Keith had gone out earlier and it was quite


    impossible to deal with this now.


    After a pause, I turned around. I nned to go back


    and sit in the lounge.


    "Stand there, Wanda Lane.” Serena caught me with her sharp eyes.


    I had no choice but to turn back to look at her.


    There was a certain distance between us, so she raised her voice and said, “Don''t be so full of


    yourself. My downfall today will be your downfall tomorrow."


    I frowned, feeling a little displeased.


    Human beings had tempers, so did I.


    I walked up to her and said indifferently, "With the qualifications you have, Ms. Zoel, you''ll live a


    great life even if you don’t be a star. So why are you giving up on yourself? Do you know that


    you look less human now?"


    She had the advantage of being young, beautiful, curvy, and educated. Even though her career as a


    celebrity hade to an end, there were other ways for her. She was notpletely at her wit''s


    end.


    Serena was fueled with anger. "Stop being so full of yourself!"


    "You can think of me in any way you want." I shrugged. "I''m advising you out of good intentions.


    Don''t drive yourself to a dead end."


    She gritted her teeth and viciously hissed, "You''re nothing but a substitute, just like me. Do you think


    you''re any better than me? When the woman he loves shows up, you''ll be nothing."


    After a pause, she continued, "Before you showed up, M r. Grant treated me as kindly as he treated


    you, but look at me now.”


    It was useless to dwell on these matters. It was no longer meaningful to find out who the actual


    substitute was now.


    The only reason why she would not let this matter drop was because she felt unfairly treated.
