Chapter 1175


    I gently sighed and said with a face full of helplessness, "Stop teasing me."


    Lally smiled and came to my ear, whispering, "Elena didn''t go to the hospital. She probably thinks


    it''s too embarrassing t o do so."


    As soon as she said that, Elena was seen walking in from outside of the research institute.


    She had changed her clothes, and rage flickered in her beautiful eyes when she saw us. She


    looked as though she was eager to devour us alive.


    Lally was not intimidated by her and looked over with a provocative gaze while saying meaningfully,


    "A certain someone thinks others have to do things her way just because she''s beautiful. A person''s


    temperament and education are equally important. Otherwise, having an empty shell is really not of


    much use."


    I tugged at Lally''s sleeve and whispered," That’s enough, stop it. Shannon is here.


    Theo has sent someone to receive her. Do you have a lot of work to do now? I can do it with you if


    you still have a lot to finish.


    Let''s have dinner together at Mr. Collins'' ce tonight."


    Lally froze. "Mr. Collins? Shannon''s grandpa?"


    I nodded. "Shannon is idle all day and wants toe over and join us. She''s taking the chance to


    see her grandpa too.”


    Lally looked at Elena but did not continue t o ridicule her.Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.


    At this moment, a car stopped outside the entrance, and we recognized it to be Jordan''s car. When


    the car door opened, Shannon got out of the car.


    Cally nced at me in surprise.


    I was equally surprised, not expecting Jordan to be the one to receive her.


    Shannon was wearing a soft-colored dress today. Her makeup looked very clean. She had a


    particrly pure look overall.


    Seeing how she had dressed herself up, Cally asked in a slightly ridiculous tone, "D o you think this


    is her secret plot to take Jordan home?”


    Shannon chuckled. "I''ll need your help on this one, Cally.” "My help?”


    Cally raised her eyebrows. "How can you rely on me for this kind of thing?


    Youngsters like you should be the ones working hard. I believe Grandpa Fredericks is dying for a


    grandson, so hurry up and conceive Jordan’s child. He’ll immediately let you get married on the


    spot.


    Shannon twitched her mouth. ''That’s a horrible idea."


    I gently sighed. “The Fredericks are no ordinary family. They’ll surely pay a lot of attention to


    etiquette. If she does as you say, then she’ll certainly suffer after stepping into the Fredericks


    family."


    Lally shrugged. "You were the ones who wanted my idea."


    Jordan came up and said to Lally and me,'' Invite Elena to the meal tonight. We''ll still meet each


    other frequently and need each other’s help in many aspects. Don''t make things awkward."


    Cally and I noddedpliantly. Jordan felt that we were not taking this seriously enough and said


    with a gentle sigh, "Cally, you’re experienced in the workce now. Even if you don''t like someone,


    you can''t make it too obvious. Put interests first.


    Besides, Grant Corporation''s equipment hasn’t been retrieved yet. If things go south and Elena


    quits, Grant Corporation will lose even more."


    After hearing what he said, Cally nodded and said with a sincere attitude, "Okay, Mr. Fredericks. I’ll


    handle it."


    Jordan nodded and said no more, hurrying over to finish his job.


    As soon as he left, Shannon looked at Cally and me and quickly asked, "What happened?"


    Theo came out of the office while speaking to Keith. I nced at him and said, "The two of us


    fought with Elena before you came. We’re all injured."


    Shannon widened her eyes. "Something interesting like that happened? Why didn''t you invite me?"


    “Quit messing around.”
