Chapter 1619
"Who the hell are you?" Ruby looked at Cindy with a deathly gaze.
"You still don't know who | am until now? What qualifications do you have to snatch Theowy, then?" Cindy left
after her last remark and walked away in style.
| saw Ruby standing on the spot in silence for stime. She then went to the back room to change her clothes
before sitting back down at her desk. She went back to work without saying a word.
Theo stood straight and looked at my smug expression.
"I think even in the past, you were much better than her."
My expression froze, and for a moment, | did not know whether Theo was complimentingor insulting me.
"But someone eventually has to helpout. Otherwise, others will say that I'm the president's petty wife."
After saying that, Theo's expression also froze before turning serious.
He leaned closer to me. "So you're saying that you want to be the president's generous wife?"
| gritted my teeth to hold back my laughter and pretended to feel wronged, so | said," Actually, I've always been
a generous person."

| noticed Theo's unusual expression as his face got closer.
When he approached me, | gently pushed him away. Besides, this was Keith's office. We should not make our
colleagues feel uncomfortable. "Enough. Let's not disturb Keith's work. Let's go back." | turned my head and
slipped out of the office after saying that.
Theo looked back at Keith before quickly leaving the office.
Poor Keith worked so hard, yet he still had to endure Theo's bullying.
Soon after we returned to the office, Cindy cback too. She went up to the desk and organized the
documents. "I can't finish reading all these now. I'll bring them back with me."
She packed up her stuff and was about to leave.
Theo did not say anything. | knew he wanted to speak, but he was afraid of stirring up other matters, so | helped
him.
"Stay and join us for lunch."
Cindy froze, then she looked atwarily.
"We can explain any part of the
documents that you don't
understand. Plus, it's almost
1
lunchtime. You'll be stuck in traffic if you go out now, so why don't you
eat with us?"
Actually, It was only 40 minutes past 10, so the roads would not be blocked if she took a taxi right now.
It was just an excuse.
After giving it sthought, Cindy nodded her head and accepted my invitation.
She took the files and went to the conference room on her own. | did not bother her again and sat obediently in
Theo's office.
Soon, it was tfor lunch. Ruby did not cin again since this morning.
| had Cindy as an excuse, so Theo could not work overtduring lunch.
| knew it was simply because of work, but if he did not go, Cindy would feel awkward.

If he was late, Cindy and | would have to starve, so he was more punctual than usual.
Luckily, there was a shopping mall next to the company, so Theo tookand Cindy there for lunch.
"What do you want to eat?" | took the initiative to ask.
"You don't need to be so attentive. Since I've agreed, | won't back out." Cindy finished speaking and maneuvered
her wheelchair forward alone.

Theo looked atworriedly, but | laughed.
"What are you doing?"
"Don't worry, I'm not angry. | just think that Cindy's behavior is quite cute," | explained.
"I don't quite understand what you
mean." Theo had a serious face. guessed that he must have thought that was going to take revenge on
um
Cindy. &
