NovelBarCindy suddenly looked atand asked in an icy voice, "When did you becso nosy, Ms. Lane?"
"If there's anything you'd like to talk about, then talk when we get back," Theo voiced out, his voice cold as ice.
Even his gaze when he looked at Zedd was very cold. " You don't mind embarrassing yourself, bu Grant
Corporation and Zedd Corporations do."
Zedd's countenance was very dark, and his mood was clearly bad. "Fine. | don't even get to relax when | eat.
You're deliberately screwing with me, huh?"
He shook off Nadia's arms after saying that, then turned around and walked away.
Several other people whom I did not know were not going to stick around either, so they left one after another.
Cindy chased after Zedd, leaving only Nadia in the private room.
I held Theo and hesitated for a moment, then | looked at Nadia and said, "Don't get involved with Zedd. You

my sentence and was about to leave with Theo.
"Wait," Nadia called out to me. "W-Why are you helping me?"
| frowned and turned around to look at her. "I'm not helping you. | was just trying to remind you."
Zedd had been in love with Cindy for a long time. He was always by Cindy's side whether she chose to take him
seriously or
not.
He had never been with any other woman all these years. By suddenly allowing Nadia to go near him now, he
was most probably trying to irritate Cindy. He was treating Nadia as a tool in his relationship. Nadia let out a wry
smile and said in despair, "It doesn't matter. | just want the money. | don't care what happens between them."
In that case, there was no need forto persuade her further. It was none of my business, after all. | was just
being kind and reminding her. It was her choice whether to listen or not. | could only wish her luck right now.
Theo and | walked out of the private room. Tyler must be hopping mad to see that we were not back yet after so
long.
"Mason brought the child to a factory last time. You should probably investigate it. His plan was to kill the child,
so he must have done something to him, though I'm not sure what it was." Nadia's voice cfrom behind us.
My heart trembled, and | abruptly turned my head back. | tried to ask her more questions, but she grabbed her
bag and left, givingno chance to ask.
| raised my eyes and looked at Theo, asking worriedly, "Did you notice anything strange when you found
Munchkin at the time?"
He shook his head. "I'll find someone to investigate it. Don't worry."
How could I not be worried? | was worried sick.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Theo and | returned to the private room, Tyler exploded as expected. He angrily complained, "What were
the two of you doing? Is having a meal withstopping you from improving your relationship with each other?
Can't you just endure it for a while before doing your lovey-dovey things back home?"
Theo sat down and saw that there was not much food on the table, so he askedwith a smile, "Is there
anything else that you'd like to eat?"
| shook my head. "I'm not hungry anymore. Let's go back if we're done."
Tyler felt like he was being ignored and immediately lost it. "Can the two of you be a little more humane? Can
you stop doing this to single people? Are you that happy to hurt me? We agreed to chat over a meal, but I'm
actually here as your third wheeler?"
| sighed and softly said, "Let's chat, then. What's going on with you and Susan?"
Tyler waved his hand. "Nothing. Stop asking."

His attitude made it hard for us to chat about anything at all, so I pulled Theo up. Let's go home."
