"I think we should just brush it aside for today." | did not answer her words.
These women had a common problem.
They were as obedient as sheep in front of Theo, but as soon as Theo had his back turned, they becas
prideful as lions.
| still remembered her arrogance the last tshe saw me. Now, she was playing nice in front of Theo, which |
did not want to deal with.
"I see that everyone is already tired today. Now, there's the problem of paperwork.
Why don't we just stop here today and all go back and rest?"
My words were commanding, leaving no room for negotiation.

In fact, Theo also knew very well that my purpose was only to ask Ruby to leave.
If possible, | also wanted to take Theo back to rest, but it depended on whether Theo was willing to.
| did not expect this Ruby to not back down but insist on carrying on to the end.
"Mrs. Grant, you're too kind, but the business field is like a battlefield. No matter how kind you are, you won't be
able to win that way."
Ruby, like last time, still blamedfor all the problems.
"Now that the files are gone, we're behind schedule. If we take another break tonight, we'll be exponentially
behind." She looked pitifully at Theo, then at me. It was as if she was heartbroken that Theo had such an
unintelligent wife as me.
"Mrs. Grant, | know you mean well, but the reality of the situation doesn't allow us to rest, so why don't you go
back first?" From the t| entered the office until now, she had been remindingto hurry back almost every
second. It was obvious that she was extremely urgent.
Seeing that Theo was still silent, | was worried that he was mad again. If that was the case, | guessed he would
have to go back to work later.
| looked down, gently tugged on his sleeve, and said to him with a pout, "I'm hungry."
Two minutes later, Theo
immediately got up, straightened his somewhat wrinkled shirt, picked up his suit jacket, and took my hand
"Con, let's go eat." "Can you not cback to the office after we eat?" | looked at Theo with begging eyes.
I did not want to see him this tired again. Not to mention that he knew as well as did that it was absolutely
impossible for Keith to have lost
work documents. The only possibility was that they were
hidden away by Ruby.

Theo was not willing to be threatened by her, but this time, the anxiety of work piling up had caught up to him.
That was why he remained here and watched Ruby put up such a performance.
| could understand that, but more than anything, | wanted Theo to get srest.
Theo was a little hesitant. | knew he wanted to cback and continue working after the annoying Ruby had
left, but I did not want him to work so hard.
Before Theo could refuse, | hurriedly said,"
You can continue tomorrow. I'm a little tired today."
There was no need to explain things to Ruby. Anyway, my purpose was to take Theo back to rest.
Knock, knock, knock. Keith walked in. "Mr. Grant, | found the documents!"
As he walked in, he sorted out the documents in his hands with an excited smile on his face. His neat suit from
before was already a bit messy and it was obvious that he had to put in seffort to find the documents.
