Chapter 1867
Paradise Hotel.
Theo and I arrived as scheduled.
When we came to the private room, Jordan and Shannon were already there. Both of them stood
up to greet us when they saw us, especially Jordan, who looked extremely gentlemanly. "President
Grant, Mrs. Grant, please take a seat. I already ordered some of the signature dishes here. Why
don''t you both take a look and see if there’s anything else you''d like to order?" He then handed over
the menu.
"No need. It''ll do. " Theo declined.
Jordan looked more mature and stable than before. He looked a lot more tired too. Perhaps he was
worried about the matter of this business. He was not in as high spirits as Theo.
He could only me himself. Perhaps he would not be in such a difficult situation if he had not gone
up against Theo.
The dishes were slowly served up. Jordan raised his ss and directed it at Theo. " President
Grant, this ss is to apologize for my past transgression on you. I hope you''ll be able to forgive
and forget."
Theo held his cup with a slight smile on his lips. "It’s nothing, you’ve already paid the price,
President Fredericks, so there’s nothing more to this matter."
He downed the entire ss after he said that.
These words, on the other hand, stunned Jordan for a moment. His expression was one of slight
embarrassment. He still smiled, however, and drank the wine in his ss.
I turned to look at Theo and frowned slightly to show my dissatisfaction. He just smiled at me and
did nothing else.
Did this man not catch what I was trying to say?
Sighing silently in my heart, I raised my ss. "President Fredericks, it''s a tremendous feat to be
able to acknowledge one''s mistake and fix it, so we won''t continue to hold a grudge against you.
With this ss, it''ll be as if nothing happened in the past. I''m pregnant, so I''m substituting wine with
tea. I wish you great sess in Whaldorf City."
"Thank you for your words, Madam Grant. I''ll definitely drink to this.”
In reality, I was not actually that unfamiliar with Jordan since he had taken good care of me when
we were outside back then. However, things had changed and it made me a little emotional. I
lamented at the impermanence of things.
Such a scene, on one hand, was to give Shannon face; on the other, it was also a reminder to
Jordan not to repeat the same mistakes.
We chatted with each other like this, and the meal passed rather pleasantly.
"President Grant, I heard you signed a contract with Mr. Drover just recently. He’s someone who is
versed in artificial intelligence. You won''t have to worry about Grant Corporation''s artificial
intelligence project with him around. You''re really lucky. Mr. Drover has never participated in
company projects. I didn’t expect him to actually work with Grant Corporation." Jordan abruptly
brought up work. It seemed that this was his purpose tonight.
Theo looked to have long expected him to ask this. He looked at Jordan calmly, and even his tone
was indifferent. "Is your branch office this time looking into developing artificial intelligence projects
as well, President Fredericks?"
He had participated in a mecha project previously topete with Theo, and now he wanted to
grab a share of the artificial intelligence industry. It looked like he wanted topete with Theo
again.

"I just want to understand it first. I don’t have such ns for the time being," Jordan replied very
cautiously.
Both men harbored their own thoughts. I could not watch this scene further and left the private room
with Shannon with the excuse of needing the toilet.
Shannon had only two more months left before her due date, and her stomach was already very
big. She could not be provoked at this time, so I took her out for some fresh air.
"Wanda, Jordan, he..."
I knew what she wanted to say, so I interrupted her, "It''s alright, I understand. This has nothing to do
with you and me. Let’s just let them talk on their own "
I did not want their workpetition to affect my rtionship with Shannon.
Shannon obviously thought the same and nodded. "Alright, that’s good."
