Chapter 880 The weather was really cloudy and unpredictable. The morning was bright and sunny, but it was now dark and cloudy. It looked like there was going to be heavy snowfall.
When Theo called, I was leaning back in the chair with my eyes closed.

How are things in the company?" Theo finally had an annual holiday, yet this happened. I bet he was going to be a real busy bee.
Theo said, "The PR department will handle it. What do you want to have for lunch?" It was almost noon now. It would probably be after lunch when Celine was done talking to Elena. I might not be able to have lunch with Theo.
I gently sighed and said with a smile, "I have an appointment, Mr. Grant, so I won't be having lunch with you." Theo was amused. "Do I know this person?" I deliberately wanted to tease him, so I said, "I'm not telling you." Theo snickered lightly. "You've been waiting downstairs for so long but she still hasn't cdown yet.

It sounded extraordinarily tempting.

I waved at Celine, who sawand hurried over.
When she approached me, I realized that her eyes were terribly swollen. It was clear that she had been crying hard.
Although I had no idea what relationship she and Elena shared, it sure was not as simple as I thought it was.
I did not ask her anything and merely said with a faint smile, "What do you want to have for lunch?"
