| noticed the mark on the wall and went forward to take a look. Looking at the surface of the wall where the
machine had fallen, I noticed that a layer of the wall had coff. It revealed the concrete underneath.
Keith said, “There are too many people here and the place is a mess, Mrs. Grant. Why don't you go to the office
instead?" | looked at him. "Did Grant Corporation or Fredericks Corporations build this research institute?”
"Fredericks Corporation.” Keith was a little curious. “Is there a problem, Mrs. Grant?"
| pursed my lips and made no reply.
Looking at the wall, | used my hand to knock on it and felt that it was hollow inside.

“Yeah.” Krayden smiled. "It'll be the end of the month soon. These folders need to be handled in advance and
reported to the top management. I'm old now and didn't receive much education, so I'll need your help on this
one.”
| flipped the folders open. "Is this institute built on a scale of a temporary building. Mr. Krayden’?”
Krayden shook his head. "Of course not. The construction requirement for the research institute is extremely
strict. Also, the walls are built very thick for soundproofing measures.”
| pursed my lips and looked at the wall.
However, Krayden was in a rush to match the data, so | had no choice but to put this aside first. | went to the
office to match the data. After a whole day at work, my waist and back were sore.

Theo chuckled slightly. "Have you had dinner?"
If | said that | had not, then he was bound to nag me. Hence, | lied, "I just did. What about you?” The sound of
utensils hitting the plates was heard from the other end of the call. "I'm currently eating.” Theo said with a smile.
"You're eating outside?"
"Yeah."

He chuckled. "A lady.”
| pursed my lips. "Who?"
Theo chuckled. "Guess."
| sat up from the bed and asked with a cold voice, "Is she pretty?”
"She is."
| was upset now. "Prettier than me?"
Theo laughed. "You're both pretty.” took a deep breath and said than unkind tone, "Theo, you don't want to have,
a normal conversation withanyhore, do you? If you dont, I'll hang up." .to .Org
“Don't.” As soon as Theo said that, a woman's laughter entered my ears
