The Woman From Hell

Chapter 302 I knew that neither of them was going to back down, so I took my phone out and called Mason.

After my call was connected, Mason's cold voice sounded, "What is it?" I looked at the receptionist and asked faintly, "Are you at the company?" Mason lightly answered yes.

"I want to see Theo, but the receptionist is tellingthat I need to make an appointment. Theo's busy right now, can you cdown and pickup?" On the other end of the phone, Mason was silent for a moment before he said, "I'm coming down now." The receptionist stared atwith a suspicious face." Who did you call?" I smiled faintly and did not answer her question.

Miss Woods gave her a cold snort. "Watch out, you have a surprise waiting for you in a bit." When she saw that Miss Woods and I were acting confidently, the receptionist got a bit flustered.

"Find out if President Lane from East Wind Corporation has made an appointment with President Grant recently." At that moment, a man cover.

The receptionist cback to her senses and looked down to check on her computer.

I looked over at the man and froze for a moment.

'Isn't this Mr. John from the marketing department? Why did he cover to Whaldorf City with Theo?' Mr. John looked atand froze for a few seconds before hurriedly greeting me, "President Lane! It's been a long time." "It's been a long tindeed." I smiled gently.

When I was at Grant Corporation before, although I did not interact much with him at work, we still met each other frequently, so we were considered acquaintances.

"You're here to see President Grant, right?" Mr. John looked at my stomach. "And I see that your stomach is growing. I hope you take care whenever you're out." I smiled and nodded. "Of course." "Why haven't you gone up yet?" Mr. John felt a little puzzled.

I glanced at the receptionist and said faintly, "He's a bit busy now, so I'll go up in a bit." Mr. John was about to say something when his phone rang.

"Go ahead and do whatever you need to." I waved my hand.

Mr. John gavean apologetic look, then turned around and left quickly.

The conversation I had with Mr. John just now allowed the receptionist to find out who I was. At that moment, she looked atwith panic in her eyes. She parted her lips just to close them again. She could not say a word for a long time.

Miss Woods mockingly said, "Girl, don't you think you ought to say something?" "I... I..." The receptionist bit her lip and apologized to me. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Grant. I'm sorry for offending you." "Grant Corporation isn't a small company, and a receptionist is the face of the company. Your words and actions represent the company, so if you act like a snob and maliciously speculate based on your own judgments, I'm forced to wonder how you were recruited in the first place." Miss Woods had served Grandma Grant all her life and beca strict person after all those years of training. The receptionist could not help but shrink her neck.

"Don't bother pretending, thinking I'd pity you." Miss Woods snorted coldly. She did not intend to let her go s o easily. "Hurry up and apologize to Young Mistress again." "I'm sorry, Young Mistress." The receptionist dutifully apologized to me.

"Apologize again." Most of the people who got a job in Grant Corporation would be a little haughty. When the receptionist saw that Miss Woods was being merciless, she becfurious. "I've had enough of you." "The person who always comes to the company to look for President Grant is Miss Reed. Mrs. Grant has never cover, so it's only normal for people here to think that Miss Reed is President Grant's wife. I was just doing my job and stopped you guys. Why should you humiliatefor that?" After she said that, whispers started going around the space.

When Miss Woods heard what she said, she was furious. "Cindy is just a shameless mistress. Is her seductive and bewitching appearance not obvious enough? Are all of you blind? How dare you think that she's Mrs. Grant?!" "She still looks better than her." The receptionist extremely rudely pointed at my nose. "Miss Reed is always so thoughtful and caring toward President Grant. She helps President Grant in any way she can. What has she done? I've never even seen her once in the entire tI've worked here." "Can't you see that she's pregnant?" Miss Woods was furious.

The receptionist snickered lightly. "Miss Reed is pregnant too. Why is she not as petite as Miss Reed?" "Why you!" "That's enough." I grabbed Miss Woods' arm. "Don't argue anymore." We were at the entrance of the company and there were many people coming and going. If they continued arguing, someone might spread gossip out of it. If that happened, it would be bad for me, Theo, and Grant Corporation.

Even so, Miss Woods was still unhappy. "Young Mistress, you should never take this kind of humiliation. Even if you can bear it, I can't." I let out a faint laugh. "The girl doesn't know anything. Why should you argue with her?" Although she was still unhappy about it, Miss Woods did not say anything more after that. She only glared at the two women at the front desk until Mason arrived.

When the two receptionists at the front desk saw him, their eyes lit up and their admiration for him was obvious. When Mason noticed that the atmosphere was not quite right, he frowned and asked, "What happened?" I looked at the receptionist who appeared slightly alarmed and slowly shook my head. "It was nothing, let's go." After entering the elevator, Mason spoke faintly, "Do you know that Cindy is up there?" I nodded.

"Then why do you still want to go up?" Mason did not quite understand.

I curved the corners of my lips slightly. "I don't mind breathing the sair as her." Mason laughed out loud. "You have a good mindset." The elevator stopped when it reached the 11th floor and I followed Mason out of the elevator.

I walked straight to the door of the second office on the right. Mason knocked on the door.

No one responded from inside, so he pushed open the office door. After he looked around, he turned his head to look atand said faintly, "You can go in first. I need to deal with sthings."

After he left, Miss Woods said angrily, "I have to talk to the young master about what happened downstairs so he can fire that receptionist." "Don't do that." I sighed lightly. "It's not necessary." "But..." Miss Woods was about to say something else when Theo entered the office, followed by Cindy.

I was afraid that Miss Woods would not be able to help herself and scold Cindy because of how furious she Low was, so I hurriedly said, 'Miss Woods, can you go to the mall nearby and buy stea for me? Make sure you buy different types of tea because I've started to love drinking tea recently." "When did you arrive?" Theo was a little surprised to see me.

"A few hours ago." I intentionally exaggerated.

Theo laughed faintly, walked up to me, and touched m y face. "Why didn't you call me?" I raised my eyebrows and looked at Cindy, who was standing by the side. "I was going to ask how your phone ended up in Miss Reed's hands." When Theo heard what I said, he could guess what had happened.

He turned his head sideways and looked at Cindy a little coldly. "Did you answer my phone?" X
