The Woman From Hell

Chapter 2215



Sitting face-to-face with Lola, the atmosphere seemed a bit delicate.

She was calm and smiling at me. "Harriet's temper was poor today. I hope you'll forgive her, President Lane."

"It's okay. We got the work done anyway. I hope tomorrow will be better."

"Do you need me for something, President Lane?" Lola looked at me with a smile on her pretty face, which made it hard for me to speak.

After going through what I wanted to say in my mind, I opened my mouth. "I don't know if Miss Osborn read the content clearly when she signed the contract, but one of the terms states that there should be no scandals during the length of the partnership. That means she can't get into any scandals within this three-month period. Miss Osborn must keep a distance from individuals of the opposite sex to prevent scandals from happening." Lola nodded her head, smiling slowly. "Of course, I help Harriet with her contracts and tell her what she needs to pay attention to. She knows it too." I clasped my hands together on the table and said lightly, "I ran into my husband and Miss Osborn on the plane when I was on my way to Jarlston yesterday. After thinking about it, Miss Osborn has been contacting my husband quite frequently these days. I don't think it's a good thing for either you or me. It'd be fine if it were any other single individual, but Theo and I are husband and wife. I suppose you understand the consequences if any false news were to start about the two of them."

Lola smiled after listening to what I had to say. "I understand what you mean, President Lane. I will tell Harriet to pay more attention. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."

"Alright, sorry for the trouble, Miss Lola."

As I watched Lola leave, the view of her from the back looked similar to a person I knew. I frowned and fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, someone patted my shoulder, and it was followed by a bright voice in my ears. "What are you thinking about? Have you talked to Lola?" Shannon also looked in the direction where Lola had left, but she had already gone far.

"Yes, it's done. I hope Harriet will listen to her." Regardless, I had already reminded her that Harriet should stop pestering Theo if she wanted to save her reputation.

However, it turned out I was wrong.

After dinner, Shannon and I returned to the hotel, only to see Harriet and Lola checking in.

Shannon tugged at the corner of my clothes. "What's going on? Didn't you already tell them? Why is she still chasing him?"

I walked over and smiled. "What a coincidence, Miss Osborn."

"You're staying here?" Harriet did not seem to know that we were staying here and looked puzzled.

Shannon and looked at each other when Lola said, "There was a power outage at our previous hotel, so we decided to switch places and came here. Ldidn't know you were also staying here, President Lane. We can switch to another place if you're uncomfortable about this

She already had two room cards in her hand, so I smiled and said, "No need.

don't own this hotel. Of

course, you can both stay here. Well then, we'll be leaving first."

I brought Shannon to the elevator.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"You think they really didn't know that we were staying here? Isn't it ridiculous that their hotel experienced a power outage?"

It was not only Shannon as I was dubious about it as well.

"I don't know. Forget it. Just let it be. I hope nothing will happen again."

After arriving on the fifth floor,

Shannon and I walked out and just

so happened to meet Theo, who

el

was coming toward me. He looked at me a smile making its way onto his cold, handsome face. "You're back."

"Yeah, where are you going?"

UMS

"I have a client to meet. You should go to bed early."

"Be careful on the road."

The elevator doors opened again at this moment, and Harriet walked out.
