The Woman From Hell

Don's expression shifted slightly. It was obvious that he had been slightly convinced.

I struck while the iron was hot and continued, "You'll also be able to learn more about businesses and so on and so forth at Grant Corporation. If you want to take this path in the future, you could consider this as your foundation. What do you think?" He raised his head to look at me, hesitation still in his eyes. After a while, Don replied slowly, "Yes, you're right. I'm just really worried that I'll mess up your plan."

I smiled faintly, not caring. "I just want you to understand what's going on at Grant Corporation. I'm not asking you to get up to something. Even if you're discovered, nothing will happen. We have a bottom line."

Likely persuaded by my words, Don looked convinced and downed his drink before slowly replying, "Alright. Since you believe in me, I'll... give it a shot."

"That's great." I smiled. This was what I wanted.

"But if you do this, you'll start a dispute with Grant Corporation. You..." he hesitated, not knowing whether to ask or not.

Knowing what he wanted to say, I laughed it off. "We're divorced. It's all business now. Also, do you think I feel good after what they did to me?"

Don looked at me cautiously. "Then, is this... revenge?"

I shook my head, smiling as I replied, "That's not what I'm thinking. It's just for profit."

Don lowered his head, and I could not see his expression clearly. "Is that so..."

"What's wrong?"

"Ah, nothing." Don raised his head, a faint smile on his lips. "But are you sure I can succeed in the interview?"

I nodded. "Just do your best. It'll definitely be fine."

Hearing how confident I was, there was obvious doubt in Don's eyes, but he asked nothing further.

Just like that, our dinner came to an end.

Driving back to the apartment, I felt a vague sense of someone following me through the rearview mirror.

I drove as fast as possible into the bustling street, yet the car behind me was still following me.

Frowning, I called Marius and gave him my current location.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

While I was waiting for him, I kept paying attention to the car at the back. I led him as we circled the streets. Probably realizing that I had noticed him, he wanted to leave, but

Marius arrived just at that moment.

The people he brought with him blocked the escape route.

Getting out of the car, I shoved my hands into the pockets of my windbreaker and walked to the back. Marius had already dragged the person out of the car, and he was a stranger.

"Who sent you?" Marius asked directly.

The man was still trying to honor the contract as he waved his hands

again and again. "No one. I was just driving around. Did I break the law?"

He was rather tight-lipped still.

I smirked and looked at him directly. "Delia sent you?"

"N-No."

"That seems to be the case." I laughed lightly. "You answered without even asking who she is. Your lies aren't serving you."

His expression changed, and he looked at me pleadingly. "Please let me go4 just needed the money. She asked me to follow you and then report to her. Nothing else

I understood Delia.

I glanced at Marius and nodded. "Let him go."

"Thank you, thank you."

"Sis Wan, why do you-"

"Just let him go."

Marius lowered his head, having no choice but to listen to me. He let the man go, and the man drove away immediately.

"Sis Wan, why did you let him go just like that?"

"What's the use of catching a dog? It still has to go back to its owner."
