NovelGoldI knew Nicky would be restless, but I did not expect her to act so quickly.
She first bought the headlines for the next several days, all of which used the phrase ‘mysterious announcement’
in red as a gimmick to attract the public and signify that there would be big news in three days. Although most
people in Grant Corporation knew about her current relationship with Theo, the outside world did not. At present,
she was planning to make an announcement by using the momentum that cwith foreshadowing so that
when their relationship was announced to the public three days later, it would create a sensation.
This was the fastest way for her to get herself settled in Grant Corporation.
| read the news while holding my phone in hand. Although they were just a few short words, | could already see
her ambitions clearly.
She did not want just Theo.
Shannon glanced atand said cautiously, "What are you thinking?"

Looking back at her, there was a slight glint in my eyes. | pursed my lower lip. Sighing, | then said, "I'm, of
course, lamenting. Seeing this woman get so much ahead, she must've planned every step carefully."
After hearing my answer, Shannon's entire face twisted into a ball. She had always liked holding grudges the
most. If she were not about to give birth now, she would probably have gone directly to Nicky and given her a
good one.
| should be glad she could not move now.
"I've never seen such a brazen person before. Tell me, how can this kind of person just appear out of nowhere
and harm the world?" She frowned, her tone filled with melancholy.
Narrowing my eyes, | stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder, signaling for her to calm down and not
worry about me.
Despite being the person involved, | was still pretty laid-back. | was even comforting someone else now. "This
kind of person will reap what they sow. Let's wait and see."
After pouring out a plate of dried nuts, | started going through them, completely ignoring this matter.
Seeing my appearance, Shannon
hated that | was not responding the way she thought | should and forced herself to speak, "Why are you so
forgiving? Nicky has not only stolen your husband but is now possibly reaching her claws into Grant Corporation.
Why are you indifferent?"
"What can | do?" | asked rhetorically, tilting my head to look at her.
Sure enough, this question that | asked Shannon stumped her, and she stopped talking. After hesitating for a
long time, she shook her head. "Alright, alright. | can't convince you. I've also never met anyone like you. Any

also seeas a joke, no?"
She chewed the nuts in her mouth, then swallowed them quickly. After that, Shannon continued, "Didn't you say
you have a plan for the next step? It's been so long yet | haven't seen anything from you. As for her, she keeps
making moves one after another."
"Don't worry. It's not tyet," | replied to her casually.
Seeing that there was no expression on my face, Shannon looked atwith a little more of a smile. "It's a big
move, huh? Could you tellwhat it is first?" She approachedand smiled slyly.
I chuckled softly while holding onto my secret. "The secret can't be revealed. Don't think I'll tell you about it."
"Hmph, fine, then. I'll witness it sooner or later anyway. Perhaps it'll surprisetoo."
"Probably."
Shannon beceven more interested when | said that and looked like she was looking forward to it even more.
"I'll wait patiently, then. Don't tellit won't be done by the tmy child is born, though." "You can take it as a
surprise for your child's birth." | looked up at her and smiled.
