Chapter 788
With nearly 100 million dors wired into his ount, 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."
Thepany that Grandma transferred in my name had been developing well over the years
thanks to Theo’s reputation. The money remitted to m y ount annually was quite substantial.
However, I had never touched the money inside the ount. 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
notck 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 offpared 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 listedpany. 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 nned 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 Francest 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
ufortable 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 himing in at all.
It was only until he had picked me up by the waist did Ie 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 hisp. I rested my face on his chest. "I miss you."
His dark eyes shed, 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?”
Iughed, my mood suddenly bing 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 littlezy. "What do you want to eat?"
