Chapter 1256


    "Wait for a moment." My expression changed.


    Theo stopped walking and looked at me worriedly. He asked, "What''s wrong?”


    I smiled awkwardly and said, "Wait for me over here. I''ll head to the washroom."


    This was way too sudden


    Ten minutester, I came out of the washroom and bumped into Elena.


    She was washing her hands. When she saw me, she grabbed some tissue and wiped her hands. She then spoke to me with a look of distaste on her


    face, "Wanda Lane, you yer. I don’t care what you do with other men, but I poured in all of my effort into this project. If you dare to ruin it,


    I won''t let you off easily.”


    I sneered and said, "This project belongs to Grant Corporation. I care about it more than you do. After all, it''s my family business.”Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    Elena''s expression grew nastier as she said, "I underestimated you in the past. I thought that you caught Mr. Grant''s eye just because you looked


    simr to her. It seems that you have pretty smart tricks up your sleeve. Otherwise, Ms. Reed wouldn''t have lost to you.”


    Iughed lightly and ced my hands under the tap. "Ms. Mandez, I really do admire your work capabilities and your seriousness when ites to


    working.


    However, I still find your personality rather questionable outside of work.


    I''m not as capable as you are, but I''m not as useless as you''re making me out to be.


    I''m lucky to be able to marry Theo, but do you think that our marriage could''vested for ten years if I was just lucky? You''re prejudiced against me.


    so you''ll always find that I''mcking no matter what I do. However, you aren''t Theo Grant or everyone else. Your view of me isn''t representative of


    how everyone else views me.”


    Elena huffed coldly and said, "Don''t try to make things sound better than they are. I don’t believe that a man will take a liking to a woman without any


    capabilities unless she used some special tricks on him.


    Otherwise, how can Mr. Zimmer fall for a married woman like you?”


    I burst out intoughter and said, "Ms. Mandez, don’t you find what you said funny? Based on what you said, does that mean that women without any


    special capabilities don''t deserve to be loved?


    Previously, I already told you that there are plenty of women out there who are better than you. If women with plenty of capabilities and skills are the


    only ones who deserve to be loved, how well will you fare in the love department?"


    After a momentary pause, I added,"


    atthew Zimmer likes me, but that


    doesn''t mean:that I seduced him or


    used any ofthe tricks as you


    implied. Have you ever thought ==>


    about this? Two extremely capable


    men ave taken a liking to mec


    eanwhile, as capable as yau are,


    why haven''t any of them fallen for


    you? A man won''t


    ￡


    all foea woman


    just because of her appearance or


    work capabilities. The warmth and


    ove that a woman brings to a man


    in daily life y a more important


    role.”


    I did not really hate Elena. I simply found her annoying.


    She always thought that what she thought was right and never epted criticism from anyone else.


    If she could change her own thinking, she would actually be someone who was worthy of being loved as well.


    I did not want to continue listening to what Elena had to say. I turned around and left the washroom


    Zedd and Cindy were in the hotel lobby as well.


    Theo was smoking while seated on the sofa. He was surrounded by smoke. Only his mouth was visible, which made him appear cold and cool


    Cindy had an innocent and dreamy expression on her face. She grabbed Zedd’s arm and said, "Zedd, Ms. Lane and Mr.


    Zimmer have such a loving rtionship.


    Mr. Zimmer always looks at her so gently.”


    Zedd frowned and said, "Don’t make things up."


    Cindy seemed to not be able to


    sense the piercing coldness that


    Theo exuded Sheughed and said,


    "I''m not paaking things up. Mr. <


    Zimmer Kept looking at Wanda —


    during dinner j ust now. Everyone


    notided it. Besides, I saw Wanda


    secretly eyeing him as well. They


    must be extremely close to each


    other."


    I was secretly eyeing Matthew at the dining table?


    How funny.


    I could not bear to continue listening


    to her words. walked over to Theo''s


    side whiledghing and spoke up, ~


    ‘Ms. Reed, can you still eat well if


    you''re busy observing other people?


    Sinceyour observations are so


    detailed, did you count how-many


    times your Theowy fed medessert


    or took dishes for me?” Content
