JoyReadChapter 1887
Nicky requested a two-day vacation from Theo. She had never asked for leave during her tenure at Grant
Corporation. This time, it was probably to accompany her parents.
Nicky was not around, and | happened to go to Theo again to ask him to arrange swork for me. He simply
askedto follow up on the artificial intelligence project on Nicky's behalf.
Fortunately, | had a chat with Drover about this before, so | got started pretty quickly. Still, I did not understand
sof the more technical parts, so | had to look up sinformation once in a while.
After returning home, Theo was also rather considerate. He explained tosof the relevant content in
detail according to the project and | finally got a better understanding of the project.
As soon as | got busy at work, the nightmares no longer knocked on my door.
| slept well at night and woke up in a very good mood the next day.
| had just gone downstairs when | heard Caroline and Theo talking. | stepped forward and asked with a smile,

her.
Caroline only glanced atbefore entering the kitchen.
My intuition toldthat something had happened.
Turning my eyes to the man at the side, | tilted my head. "Theo, what's the matter?" He tookto the dining
hall and satdown. "There were people making trouble for the guards at the door just now."
Theo's tone was calm as if it was not a big deal.
After taking a bite of my bread, | said lightly, "Why would someone be making trouble? Who were they?"
"Director Doyle's parents."
Theo's reply startled me.
Nicky's parents...
| immediately guessed that they had cover because of the scar on Nicky's face. | put down whatever was in
my hand. | stood up and was about to go out when Theo pulledback. "Why are you going?"
"They cbecause of Nicky's scar. I'll go and clear things out to them," | looked at
Theo and replied sternly.
He shook his head. "Forget it, they're gone."
Seeing that Theo's expression was a little helpless, recalled hearing Nicky say that her mother valued her face
the most. Now that she hada scar, she would definitely be on it like a dog to bone. Nicky probably told them
because she had no other choice.
"Considering her mother's personality, she'll definitely go to the company if she's unable to look for us here." |
sighed. After all, | caused this incident, so | should cforward.
Theo held my shoulders. His eyes were firm. "I'll handle it. You should stay away from the company for a few
days and work from home. I'm afraid they'll hurt you."
Theo had most probably investigated Nicky's parents and knew about their personalities. That was why he was
worried that they would harm me.

It would be too hard forto just stay at home.
"I'll find it even more difficult to bear if | don't know the situation. They probably won't do anything in the day."
pursed my lower lip as still thought of facing them. I did not want Theo to handle it alone.
Theo insisted, however. He shook his head at me. "Be good. If you don't appear, I'll be able to solve this problem
properly. Trust me."
Looking into his deep eyes, they were filled with determination, so | nodded. "Okay, but you have to tell me
whatever the result is when you cback at night."
"Okay." He caressed my head, and the corners of his mouth finally lifted into a smile. "You be good and stay at
hwhile you handle your work. If Drover needs anything, I'll have him cover to look for you."
"l got it."
In order to spend more twith me, Theo only left for the company after a long thad passed. After sending
him off, my heart began to feel restless. Although he said he would be able to handle the matter properly, my
heart kept rattling...
