Chapter 1851


    Since I had not seen Shannon in such a long time, it was veryte by the time I got home.


    Upon entering the room, Theo was sitting on the bed flipping through a magazine. He was obviously waiting for me toe back.


    He looked up when he heard sounds. When he saw that I had returned, he put down the magazine. "Where did you go? You came back sote." There was only worry in his tone and not usation. I put down my bag and responded slowly, "Shannon is here. I chatted with her for quite some time."


    "Oh, I see." Theo just replied to me like this without any extra words.


    This made me feel a little strange. "Why aren''t you asking me how could she possiblye here?"


    With a smile on his face, Theo ced the magazine neatly on the table and answered lightly, "I saw the news. Jordan ns to open a branch in Whaldorf City."


    He should know about these current events as well.


    I sat next to him with a worried look on my face. "Do you think he''ll..."


    Theo knew what I wanted to say. He held my hand tightly and gave me strength. "I don''t think he''ll act so easily after thest time, unless he''s fully confident."


    Fully confident?


    I thought about his words, and unease spread through my heart. "The fact that he suddenly thought of opening a branch in Whaldorf City means it''s most likely that he''sing for you."


    Although his n failedst time, it was not just a day or two that Jordan had been coveting Grant Corporation. As long as he did not get what he wanted, he would initiate other conspiracies and Theo would have to guard against him.


    Theo lowered his gaze. His expression that had been bright just now suddenly darkened. He nodded. "Yes, I''ll be careful. Don''t worry."


    Theo had been in the workce for so many years. I believed that with his strength, he would not fall so easily into Jordan''s trap. Yet, I still felt uneasy.


    Looking at his confident gaze, however, the weight in my heart gradually sank.


    "Alright, go wash up."


    "Okay."


    When I came downstairs the next


    day, I saw Jenny applying


    medication on Nicky. I hurriedly went over to observe the situation and noticed that the scar on Nicky''s face was getting smaller and smaller. There were only some traces of it left.


    I was all smiles. "This is great. It looks like this scar will be gone tomorrow."


    Nicky also looked at me with a smile." Yeah, it''s all thanks to Dr. Jenny''s medicine."


    "This is my job. Well then, I''ll be back tomorrow." Jenny left the vi after applying the medicine.


    I held Nicky''s hand joyfully. "This is


    great. When your scar is gone, I''ll bring you to go meet a friend of mine." "Who is it?" "Her name is Shannon Collins. We met abroad.


    She''s also pregnant," I answered, not


    thinking too much of it. Content

    When Nicky heard the name, her pretty brows seemed to furrow. She said thoughtfully, "This name sounds familiar. Does she have something to do with Fredericks Corporation?"


    "Her husband is Jordan Fredericks, the president of the Fredericks Corporation."


    "I got it. I know her. The media covered them when they got married," Nicky said in a low voice.


    I was never too clear about


    Shannon''s true background, but


    when I thought of the old man Mr. Isaac''s astonishment when she appeared in the bar before, her family must have some status.


    Seeing Nicky''s deep gaze, I could not help asking, "Nicky, what are you thinking about?"


    She came back to her senses and then shook her head at me. "It''s nothing. I didn''t expect you to know Shannon."Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    "It was a coincidence. I''ll tell you about it when we have time another day." I smiled.


    Nicky nodded. "Okay."
