Grayson was pulling a long face and spoke in a deep voice, "Miss Lane, we're just giving some friendly advice.
Don't go too far.
"Am I going too far? Even though you're powerful and influential, you're both too old to be pulling tricks like this.
Please don't attempt to turn everything upside down.
Anger surged in my heart, and I heard myself being rude.
"Since you're unwilling to listen to our advice, you may leave.
Don't blame us for playing dirty after this." The expression on Graysons face changed, and he spoke in an authoritative tone.
"Fine by me." Even though he looked scary, I had become immune after dealing with Tyler and Theo for so many years.
Scary men could no longer scare me.
I left the coffee shop right away.
I was a little unsure about Grayson's threat.
After all, his network of people was complicated.
Still, I did not take the threat to heart.
Once I entered the company, Xander called.

"Wandy, it's been a while since we last met.
Would you like to join me for lunch?" "No, I'm busy." I was in a bad mood, and my tone sounded annoyed.
"Is Theo that short of money to exploit a pregnant woman's labor? Why don't you stand by my side? I'm willing to become the child's father.
Even if I'm not as rich, I'll make sure you can live a comfortable life." "Oh, by the way, wheres your father?" What Xander said reminded me of Petra.
That woman was really something.
She had several men swarming around her, and every one of them was rather impressive.
This topic caught Xander off guard.
He kept quiet and took a while to respond.
"Why are you suddenly asking about this?" "Nothing.
I'm just curious." It was out of pure curiosity.
"Come over to my house.
Ill make something for you t o fill up your stomach.
Ill satisfy your curiosity as well." "Never mind.
I'm hanging up now.

I still have work to d o.
Then, I was about to hang up.
"Wandy, you seem to be treating me colder and colder.
I feel sad, unhappy, depressed..." Xander said in an aggrieved tone.
I held my forehead and thought that I had indeed been too tired to talk to people recently.
I had not been keeping in touch with him as well.
I said, "I'll treat you to a surf and turf dinner when I'm free." "You promised! I'll be waiting." I could hear the excitement in his voice like a child who got to eat candy.
After some small talk, I hung up the phone.
Sure enough, it was hard for a woman to get into the workforce, especially unmarried women.
Once they knew that you were getting married and having a baby, you should not even hope to get promoted or receive higher pay.
You would even be ostracized.
Although Theo paid attention to the employee's welfare and the issue of feminism, the corporation was too big.
He could not get everything sorted out bright and clear.
"Don't worry.

Your performance is excellent.
I wont let you down." I patted her shoulder and comforted her.
"Thank you, Wanda." She did not seem to be too happy and her smile was forced.
I did not say anything more, and we both started to work.
I got busy with work and it was already noon when I looked at the time.
It was already 12:30 p.m.
I found it strange.
Based on how Theo had been looking after m e these days, he should have already brought me out t o lunch.
My phone rang all of a sudden.
I picked it up and saw that it was Mason.
I tapped on the answer button, and before I had the time to say anything, Mason spoke first, "Come down now.
I'm waiting for you at the entrance." He sounded anxious and panicked.
He was not as calm as he usually was.
I could not help but become flustered.
"What happened?"
