The Woman From Hell

Chapter 1265

| pushed the plate in front of Theo and said, "You should eat more!”

After that. | took a carton of milk and started drinking it.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Theo frowned and asked me.

| shook my head and said, "I'm going to start losing weight. | must control my diet so that | can lose weight

within half a month." Although I did not really like dressing up, | was still a woman. | still minded my own figure.

Theo frowned and spoke towith a look of dissatisfaction on his face, "You still need to eat three meals a day

although you've gained weight. Otherwise, you'll only gain more weight the more you try to slim down. Breakfast

is especially important. You won't gain weight if you eat more in the morning. If you really want to lose weight, I'll

accompany you out for a walk every night.”

After speaking, he pushed the plate in front ofand said, "There are only two pastries here. Finish everything.”

| really did not have an appetite, so | rejected his offer. "I don't feel like eating.”

"Listen to me!" Theo's expression stiffened as he said, “You'll experience a rebound if you diet to lose weight.

You'll beceven plumper than you are right now.”

Since he was so fierce, | did not dare to disregard his words anymore. | finished the pastries with a sullen

expression on my face. | was reapplying lipstick on my lips when Matthew walked over.

Theo caught sight of him as well. He lifted his brow and greeted him, “Mr. Zimmer, good morning.”

Matthew felt slightly taken aback. After being momentarily stunned, he said, "Good morning, Mr. Grant.”

He then looked atwith a radiant smile on his face. "Wanda, you look prettier than you were yesterday.”

Women all loved praise. | was no exception.

"Mr. Grant, would you mind if I sit with both of you?" Matthew asked with a smile.

Although he was asking Theo about his opinion, he had already taken a seat at our table. He even called a waiter

over so that he could place his order.

Theo frowned slightly. He was rather unhappy, but he did not say anything.

| glanced at him and noticed that there was something on the corner of his mouth. | grabbed a tissue and helped

him to wipe his mouth. My actions were extremely natural. It looked like | had done this countless times.

Theo was momentarily stunned. | laughed and said, "You're already all grown up. How can you still dirty your

mouth while eating?”

He cto his senses and fixed a joyous gaze on me. He seemed to be in a better mood now.

| caught sight of Matthew frowning as he looked outside the window.

| just realized that | had gone overboard. It seemed like | was showing off our love in front of him.

However, | did not explain things to him. That would make it seem like | had really done it intentionally.

After having breakfast, Theo followedto the research institute with the excuse that he neededto look

after him.

Keith sent his documents over, and he started working in my office. He used my desktop to attend his video

conferences as well.

There was more work today, so | was extremely busy. Theo would askto pour him a cup of water or help him

to send documents to other people from tto time, which madefeel terribly tired.

After coming out of the office, Krayden handeda bottle of water. He laughed as he said, "It seems like

President Grant is here to accompany his wife today."

| was momentarily stunned as my face flushed red. "You've mistaken, Krayden. His arm is injured, so it isn't

convenient for him to do many things. That's why he cover to the research institute with me.”

Krayden laughed and said, "It doesn't seem that way. Haven't you realized that Mr. Grant will call you over

whenever Mr. Zimmer chats with you?” | pursed my lips without saying anything.

Krayden was right. Whenever Matthew talked to me, Theo would textso that Matthew could not finish

whatever he was about to tell me.

“It seems like you're more tired than usual today," Krayden teasedagain.

| nodded and said. “That's right.

| already felt extremely tired although it had not been long since the workday started.

While | was chatting with Krayden, Matthew carried a basket of fruits over.

He distributed the fruits to the other employees and cto me. "Wanda, my secretary went to the orchard to

pluck sfruits. You look tired from work. You should sit down, have sfruits, and take srest.”

| was just about to speak when the phone in my pocket rang.

Krayden could not resist laughing. He held the fruit in his hands and laughed as he told me, "Ms. Lane, you need

to get busy again.” Did Theo install a surveillance camera on me? How could he callover so accurately every

single time?

It was simply way too weird!

| took the phone out of my pocket. As expected, the call was really from Theo.

| picked up the call. Theo's low and attractive voice rang out in my ear. "I'm thirsty."

“Didn't I just pour a cup of water for you?" | asked him with an exasperated expression on my face.

How could he drink so much water?

"The cup is tiny. | finished it in a gulp.”

I sighed in exasperation and said, "Alright, I'll pour swater for you."

After hanging up on the call, | looked at Matthew and said, "I'm really sorry, but something cup and | need

to leave first."

After speaking, | turned around and headed into my office.

Theo was feaning against the sofa of my office. He was wearing a pair of Bluetooth earphones while ~ looking at

the laptop on the coffee table] It seemed like he was faving a video conference. to"-

| glanced at the cup next to his hand. It was full of water.

| was extremely speechless. “Isn't there water in your cup?"

He was being way too childish!

Theo raised his gaze to look at me. His expression did not change as he said,"

Keith cin to pour swater forjust now. He also bought scakes and brought them over. Take

them out.” | raised my brow and asked, “Since he was here, why didn't he set out the cakes before leaving?"

"He's busy."

Was | not busy?

That was enough!

Although | was unhappy. I still helped him to take out the cakes and place them on the coffee table. “Hurry up

and eat.”

He raised his brow and asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"

“I'm on a diet.”

He just toldin the morning that | had gained weight, yet he was still askingto eat these desserts. Theo

pursed his lips and looked at the laptop as he said, "Chere.”

He then took out his Bluetooth earphones, smiled, and asked me, "What can you eat?"

| took a deep breath and asked, "Do you know that I'm working right now?”

Theo nodded and said, "You can eat even while working.”

Was he here to cause trouble fortoday?

"I'm not eating," | said irritatedly.

After notiging that | was unhappy, Theo pushed the cakes in front ofand started typing on the © keyboard

with his long and slender fingers. ta> -

He could not type fast due to his arm injury. He was typing at an extremely slow speed.

| paid attention to everything that he was doing. | wanted to help out, but I did not.

This man was pretending to be pitiful in front of me. | could not let him do as he wished Someone knocked on the

door. | said in an even tone, "Cin.”

Cindy cinto the office. She was holding a bag of food in her hands

She frowned slightly after noticing that | washere. She looked at Theo and asked in concern, ‘Theowy, has yOUTr
