Chapter 337 Quinn was from the Grant family. She was Theo's cousin. I could understand that it would be difficult to see things from my point of view, but she was standing on Theo's side and givingunsolicited advice. It was wrong of her to do so.
"Alright, let's stop talking about this." Quinn was holding back the displeasure in her heart. "Let's talk about the matter of putting Nectarine Entertainment a s the stakes for this bet. Theo needs a huge sum of funding to develop his career in Whaldorf City. If you lose the bet and give Nectarine Entertainment to Zimmer Corporations for free, have you ever thought how much damage you'll cause Theo?" "Quinn, you might not know this but Nectarine Entertainment was a small company that was on the verge of bankruptcy. Theo purchased it just to please Cindy. I was the one who developed it to becone of the strongest subsidiaries that Grant Corporation owns. He didn't even pay a penny to help me. I have full ownership of the company," I said coldly.
"You!" Quinn could no longer suppress the displeasure in her heart.

After all, Quinn was another selfish person. It would be a waste of tto talk to such a person. She could never understand my feelings and thoughts.
Back in the office, I saw Matthew sitting on the sofa, leisurely sipping on his cup of tea. I sat opposite him and spoke in a dissatisfied manner, "You seem like you're in a good mood." "Why are you upset?" Matthew lifted the corner of his lips and smiled as he poured a cup of tea for me. He asked again, "What did my stepmother talk to you about?" I picked up the cup of tea and took a sip of it. "She advisednot to divorce Theo and not to touch the Grant family's things." "I figured." Matthew gave a light snort and asked meaningfully, "Will you listen to her?" I curled my lips. "How would that be possible?" "It's hard to tell." There was a gleam of coldness in Matthew's eyes. "After all, you're so deeply in love with Theo Grant." I widened my eyes and refuted. "I don't love him!" "Ha." Matthew obviously did not believe that.
I did not say anything more. There was nothing much to say about this.
When it was almost lunchtime, Matthew finished up his work and cto my office. He put a document on my office table.
I took it, looked up, and shot him a glance. "What's in this folder?" "The information of the people who kidnapped you," Matthew said in a deep voice.
My body instantly froze. My hands that were holding the folder began to tremble.
Matthew looked atand spoke in a deep voice, "If you wish to do anything, I can lend you a hand."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI shut my eyes tight. Then, I opened the folder. After I went through it, I could not help but laugh. "A few of them have families." Then, why did they refuse to budge when I was begging them?
If only one of them was able to think of his wife and child, and showed scompassion for me, my child would not have died.
|| "Stop looking at it." Matthew noticed the changes in my emotions. He snatched the folder away from me. They did it for money. Every job has its own rules. If they took the money and didn't finish the job, they'd get into trouble. The one you should be hating is the mastermind who gave them money and instructed them to do that to you." "I know." I pinched the bridge of my nose.
Matthew toyed with the car key that was in his hands.
"Let's go for lunch?" X
