The Woman From Hell

I thought that the haze would pass soon and did not expect another obstacle to follow soon after.

I learned it through the news.

Keith had jumped ship.

I was not very sure about it at first, but then I arrived at Grant Corporation and realized that all the personal items on Keith's table were gone.

When I entered the office, I saw Theo sitting in his seat, looking a little lonely.

"Theo," I whispered.

He turned his chair around to look at me while putting on a smile. "You've been coming over quite diligently recently."

There was bitterness hidden in his smile. He was still trying to put up a front.

I lowered my gaze, and when I looked up again, there was clarity in them. "Have you hired yourself a new assistant?"

"Not yet."

It made sense. It was not easy to find another assistant who was as capable as Keith.

I pursed my lips. After hesitating for a long time, I finally asked, "Will I do?"

Theo was stunned as if he had not expected me to ask this. He asked me again as if to confirm, "What?"

I was still a little hesitant at first, but I really wanted to help him now. Thus, I nodded and responded again, "May I ask if I'm qualified to be your assistant, President Grant?" "What about Green Orange?"

"Marius is there. Shannon will be coming back soon too. I can come over and help you until you find yourself a suitable assistant. I just wonder if I'm qualified." I looked at Theo, a smile stretching across my lips. Theo smiled slightly before giving a light nod. "Then, please ask come over tomorrow and report yourself, Miss Lane."

"Alright." I gestured and smiled brightly.

Back at Green Orange, I told Marius the news, and he expressed his understanding.

"Thank you, Marius. It's fortunate that you're here. Who knows what'll happen to Green Orange otherwise?" My head was lowered as I felt guilty. "I started Green Orange, yet I'm not often around. I don't think I'm qualified to be its president

anymore, so I'd like to transfer half

of my shares to you."

Marius was shocked when he heard this. "Don't be like that, Sis Wan. You'll only be away temporarily, and you'll be back. Aren't you basically abdicating your position if you do this?"

"I've seen your dedication to Green

Orange. You only have so few

shares but do your best. I can't continue like this in good

conscience. I decided on this after carefuldeliberation. Besides, be back in the future and I'll take up your previous position then. The three of us will have the Same

amount of shares."

"But..."

Seeing that Marius still instead to argue, I quickly stopped him. "Alright, alright, let's stop deliberating. We'll just decide on this. I'll prepare the formalities now."

I began my preparations right after I

said that white Marius kept croakingContent bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

next to me, "Sis Wan, why don't you think about this again? I still have I Hyperspace to handle. I'll be way too busy if I take over Green Orange too.

You can't do this to me."

"I know you only go to Hyperspace several times a month and that you have an acting CEO there. So, you don't need to worry about it."

I already saw through Marius' calculations.

Marius sat back down as if having resigned himself to his fate. "Oh my God. It turns out brilliant people are also the ones who suffer."

"Yes, you're just too brilliant. That's why I have to hand Green Orange over to you. Shannon already agreed, so you'll be leading us forward ambitiously in the future." I looked at him and made a cheering motion.

He covered his eyes with his hands. "I can't grieve what I can't see."

I shook my head helplessly. He was such a child.

"Relax. Shannon will be back in two days. She'll help you."

"That's good. At least I have someone to help me."
