Chapter 1102
The Woman From Hell
Krayden nodded. "The intelligence team has already started their testing here. Do you want to go
and take a look?"
I shook my head. "That's out of my field of expertise. Mr. Fredericks will send professionals over
afterward."
"Alright."
I had been busy the entire morning and did not hear my phone ring when Shannon gave me a call. I
only saw it when I took out my phone during lunch break.
I called back and the call quickly connected.
Are you busy working, Wanda? Why didnât you answer my call?â Shannon asked from the other end
of the phone.
I gently sighed. "It's the official launch of the project today. I came to the resort and there were lots
of things to do, so I didn't hear my phone ring."
Krayden walked over with a bag of food in his hand. When he saw that I was talking o n the phone,
he quietly placed the bag on the table.
I glanced up at him and said with a smile," Thank you."
"It's nothing, really. Thaddea gave me a call and asked me when we'll be free to meet u p. Didnât we
talk about opening a shop together? Weâve been resting for so long and I figured everyone's looking
for things t o do now," Shannon said on the phone with a chuckle.
I took out the lunch box from the bag. "Sure, you can decide on a time and send me the time and
address afterward. I'll go over."
I gobbled up my food because I still had to g o back to work.
Krayden handed me a glass of water and I thanked him with a smile.
"Finish your lunch. Talk to you some other time. I'll decide on a time and venue with her and send
you a text."
Thinking of the fact that Jordan did not go home last night, I asked in a gossipy tone, which was
rare, âDid Jordan stay over at your place last night?"
"Huh? What did you say?" Shannon pretended like the signal was weak. âI think the signal is weak
over here. Talk soon."
She quickly hung up the phone after saying that, clearly avoiding me.
I helplessly smiled and put down my phone. I looked at Krayden with a smile, saying, "Thanks."
"Youâre too polite, Ms. Lane." Krayden was a refined man with a decent smile. "Usually, men are the
ones in charge of projects like this. Rarely do we have women on the job because it really is too
difficult to do. I hope you're prepared because you'll be tired for a period of time."
I nodded. "Don't worry, I can take the pain.'
Krayden lamented, "You seem to be the same age as my daughter. You have a bright future ahead
of you to be able to handle projects like this at such a young age."
I laughed. "I'm already in my 30s, Mr.
Zaffer."
Krayden was stunned and looked at me in disbelief. "I thought you were in your 20s. You look so
young.â
Women loved listening to flattering words like that, and I was no exception.
The smile on my face deepened, and I began to flatter him back. "You look very young too. I
wouldn't have believed that you have a daughter who's already in her 20s."
Krayden was about to say something when he saw Theo and Elena walking here from the corners
of his eye. He put away the smile on his face and hurried over to greet them. "You're here, Mr.
Grant."
I was almost done eating and got up to greet him. "Mr. Grant."
Perhaps the weather was too hot, so Theo did not wear a suit jacket and a tie. He looked quite
casual, not as stern as usual.
His gaze fell on the lunch box on the table and frowned slightly. "Let's have lunch together in the
village restaurant later so I can hear the work progress report from you too."
Krayden quickly nodded. "Sure, Mr. Grant."
Since he had already said so, I had no way o f refusing and could only nod my head to agree.
Theo had things to say to Krayden, so I went back to the table and put the lunch box away, throwing
it in the trash.
