Chapter 1867
Paradise Hotel.
Theo and | arrived as scheduled.
When we cto the private room, Jordan and Shannon were already there. Both of them stood up to greet us
when they saw us, especially Jordan, who looked extremely gentlemanly. "President Grant, Mrs. Grant, please
take a seat. | already ordered sof the signature dishes here. Why don't you both take a look and see if
there's anything else you'd like to order?" He then handed over the menu.
"No need. It'll do. " Theo declined.
Jordan looked more mature and stable than before. He looked a lot more tired too. Perhaps he was worried about
the matter of this business. He was not in as high spirits as Theo.
He could only blhimself. Perhaps he would not be in such a difficult situation if he had not gone up against
Theo.

The dishes were slowly served up. Jordan raised his glass and directed it at Theo. " President Grant, this glass is
to apologize for my past transgression on you. | hope you'll be able to forgive and forget."
Theo held his cup with a slight smile on his lips. "It's nothing, you've already paid the price, President Fredericks,
so there's nothing more to this matter."
He downed the entire glass after he said that.
These words, on the other hand, stunned Jordan for a moment. His expression was one of slight embarrassment.
He still smiled, however, and drank the wine in his glass.
| turned to look at Theo and frowned slightly to show my dissatisfaction. He just smiled atand did nothing
else.
Did this man not catch what | was trying to say?
Sighing silently in my heart, | raised my glass. "President Fredericks, it's a tremendous feat to be able to
acknowledge one's mistake and fix it, so we won't continue to hold a grudge against you. With this glass, it'll be
as if nothing happened in the past. I'm pregnant, so I'm substituting wine with tea. | wish you great success in
Whaldorf City."
"Thank you for your words, Madam Grant. I'll definitely drink to this.”
In reality, | was not actually that unfamiliar with Jordan since he had taken good care ofwhen we were
outside back then. However, things had changed and it madea little emotional. | lamented at the
impermanence of things.
Such a scene, on one hand, was to give Shannon face; on the other, it was also a reminder to Jordan not to
repeat the smistakes.
We chatted with each other like this, and the meal passed rather pleasantly.
"President Grant, | heard you signed a contract with Mr. Drover just recently. He's someone who is versed in
artificial intelligence. You won't have to worry about Grant Corporation's artificial intelligence project with him
around. You're really lucky. Mr. Drover has never participated in company projects. | didn’t expect him to actually
work with Grant Corporation." Jordan abruptly brought up work. It seemed that this was his purpose tonight.
Theo looked to have long expected him to ask this. He looked at Jordan calmly, and even his tone was

President Fredericks?"
He had participated in a mecha project previously to compete with Theo, and now he wanted to grab a share of
the artificial intelligence industry. It looked like he wanted to compete with Theo again.
"| just want to understand it first. | don’t have such plans for the tbeing," Jordan replied very cautiously.
Both men harbored their own thoughts. | could not watch this scene further and left the private room with
Shannon with the excuse of needing the toilet.
Shannon had only two more months left before her due date, and her stomach was already very big. She could
not be provoked at this time, so | took her out for sfresh air.
"Wanda, Jordan, he..."
| knew what she wanted to say, so | interrupted her, "It's alright, | understand. This has nothing to do with you
and me. Let's just let them talk on their own "
| did not want their work competition to affect my relationship with Shannon.
Shannon obviously thought the sand nodded. "Alright, that’s good."
