NovelEnglishChapter 1100
The car cto a stop in front of an entrance of a villa and | saw Elena walking toward the gate.
She was wearing a white dress and carrying this season's handbag from a popular new brand. She could pass off
as a rich lady.
When she walked to the car, she naturally pulled open the door to the backseat but it did not open.
| was stunned for a moment, then looked at Keith and reminded him, "You forgot to unlock the door, Keith."
Keith smiled slightly. "Sorry, | forgot."
He unlocked the doors after saying that.
At almost the stthe doors were unlocked, Theo and Keith got out of the car at the stime.
Under my dumbfounded expression, Theo got in the driver's seat while Keith took the backseat.
The smile on Elena's face suddenly turned hideous. Especially when she sawsitting in the front passenger
seat, her expression beceven more exciting to watch.

She said with great displeasure, "What are you doing here, Ms. Lane? Didn't Mr. Fredericks lend you a car?"
| subconsciously glanced at Theo's expressionless face and explained to Elena, "Although Mr. Fredericks didn't
lenda car, | usually take his car to work. He couldn't drivetoday, so | asked Mr.
Grant to givea ride instead."
Elena snorted and did not say anything else.
She wanted to pay more attention to Theo than to me.
She picked up the container placed on her lap and said with a smile, "You haven't had breakfast yet, right, Mr.
Grant? | made a sandwich this morning. Why don't you let Keith drive and have your breakfast?"
"I've had my breakfast," Theo mildly responded.
| glanced at Keith from the rearview mirror and saw how uneasy he looked. | felt sorry for him. His heart could
not take it because his boss was driving while he was sitting a t the back.
Keith cleared his throat. "Ms. Lane made breakfast this morning and Mr. Grant just finished it.”
My mouth could not help but twitch. The breakfast was supposed to be for him, okay?
| turned around and looked at Elena, saying with a smile, "Keith hasn't had his breakfast, Ms. Mandez.”
Elena glanced sullenly at Keith and handed him the container. "Since Mr. Grant has had his breakfast, you should
have it, Keith.”
Keith looked atwith helplessness written all over his face.
He knew | was retaliating against him, so h e simply took Elena's meticulously made breakfast.
When the car started driving, none of us spoke.
Elena was the only person who could not stand the silence.
She said with a smile, "It's Valentine's Day tomorrow, Mr. Grant. Do you have any plans tomorrow night?”
This woman was trying to ask Theo out.
| subconsciously glanced at Theo and heard him saying flatly, "I have work to do."

He was rejecting her. If Elena was sensible enough, then she would stop, but she was reluctant and continued to
invite Theo, " You probably won't work till so late. Should we have dinner together when you're done with work?"
Theo pursed his lips and made no reply. He looked atand asked, "Do you have any plans tomorrow night?"
| froze. "I'm staying at home.
Theo nodded, then looked at Elena from the rearview mirror. "I'm going hfor dinner tomorrow night."
Such an ambiguous statement.
Elena's countenance was grim. She was so mad that she did not want to say anything.
Her countenance only eased up when we got to the site.
After getting out of the car, | lamented about how different a team could be when a lot of money was spent. In
just one night, a temporary office space had been built. Even though the renovation was simple, it was more
than enough.
After punching my card, | went upstairs and spoke to the person in charge of the company and planned to go
downstairs to
see the work progress. &
