The Woman From Hell



Caroline prepared a table's worth of all kinds of food the next morning as if to ease the stalemate between Theo and me.

The sweet atmosphere between us already spoke for itself. After eating and sleeping well, I appeared at the company in a much better state than yesterday.

This earned me teasing from Shannon, who could read everything from my face. "Yo, looks like someone took good care of you last night. Else, why would you look so radiant today? You're positively glowing compared to yesterday!"

I was a little embarrassed but made no excuses. I just shifted the topic to the contract ceremony with Hyperspace.

Even though I had been throwing a temper tantrum with Theo before, I would never bring my emotions to work.

They were all different matters, and I could not be sloppy.

Shannon also immediately put her game face on because of this. We organized the venue for the upcoming event and curated the list of invited media. We also configured the scale of our plans and publicity into documents and brought them to the meeting room in an orderly manner.

Marius and the others were already waiting by then.

"The Hyperspace project is a victory achieved through the blood, sweat, and tears of all employees in our companies. As one of their representatives, I will make the following remarks to better promote its progress.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

"I hope everyone can speak freely and put forward their valuable opinions."

Marius had wanted to talk to me about the details of the project after the meeting, but Shannon was worried that our intimate acquaintance would be revealed to everyone else.

Even if there was no so-called improper relationship between us, we were afraid that our competitors would deliberately spread rumors.

If that were the case, we could only avoid being suspicious as much as possible.

However, on the day of the contract

ceremony, in addition to the news media that were invited to the scene, there were also many journalists and newspaper offices that attended for interviews for some reason. When they saw Marius and P appearing together as partners, they immediately swarmed up to us.

The scene got out of control for a while.

Even if a partnership between a small company and a large company was rare in the industry, this partnership opportunity with Hyperspace had not been an easy one to bag. Only Shannon and I understood its significance.

"I didn't expect this event to be so popular. I don't know whether to be happy or worried..."

Less than two days after the

contract ceremony, the

overwhelming information on the

news sites spread like wildfire. They were both good and bad. The good ones were in support of our

veon

partnership and the development of enterprises to drive the social

economy, while the bad ones were

outrageous and vicious.

Not only did they insinuate that Marius and I had an improper relationship, but they also secretly took a photo of the two of us to create an image of a false intimate interaction so that they could keep those onlookers who knew no better in the dark. They would then be used as rumor-spreading tools.

Putting aside the impact this incident had on me, the board of directors at Hyperspace had to be given a reasonable explanation and countermeasures for this matter.

Otherwise, the matter of our partnership would have to be reconsidered.

"Sis Wan, those people have no limits at all. If I catch them, I'll never let them go easily!" Marius frowned.

"Yes. We should still think of a way first. We can't make the board of directors unhappy until this matter is resolved."

Theo must have already heard about such a big event.

I was a little exhausted after returning home from the company. With his experience, Theo also did not take that false information to heart.
