The Woman From Hell

Delia had replied bluntly. She caressed Munchkin's head with kindness in her eyes. "Munchkin, I'll be your godmother from now on. You can call me 'Mommy' now, okay?" "Okay, Mommy Delia."

It was rare to see Munchkin so happy. I was really grateful for Delia's appearance. Munchkin could now know what his mommy looked like and experience how joyful it was to be by her side. Everything went well for dinner today.

When Theo came back, I shared the good news with him. His face was unchanging, and his tone was even calmer. "As long as Munchkin is happy."

He kept his eyes on the tablet. I leaned forward to see what he was looking at. There was a bunch of data on the tablet. It looked like a comparison chart of Grant Corporation and another company. "What are you doing? Comparing your strength?"

"Yes."

"It's rare for you to make comparisons so seriously. What's the matter? Are they a threat?" I was intrigued. It was definitely not an easy feat to capture Theo's attention.

Theo was finally willing to look away and at me. "Shaw Group, a collective company with a similar industrial chain to Grant Corp. We've always kept things in check, but just last month, they made a move and bidded for the same company as us. They even invested in the same project. I want to know what they're planning."

"Oh, can you get anything just from running this analysis?"

"I'm looking at the difference between them and us."

"The results?"

The man sighed. "There's nothing different."

I rubbed my chin, thinking. "Doesn't that make them the second Grant Corporation? Are they imitating you?"

Theo's eyes lit up all of a sudden as if the word 'imitating' reminded him of something. "I didn't think about that."

"Grant Corporation started in Salt City. Shaw Group didn't exist back then, yes?"

"No, Shaw Group only appeared after we shifted our focus to Whaldorf City."

I snapped my fingers. His answer had just verified my thoughts. "Yes, so it's very likely that they're imitating you."

Theo crossed his arms, thinking.

"Even if they are, they need power They've obviously been preparing for a long time. They might have been studying us since Salt City

"Another great god?"

I always thought no one but Theo could manage Grant Corporation in his current position, but now, there was Shaw Group. The person running it must be extraordinary.

"I wonder."

"They're already knocking on your door. Why don't you go investigate them?"

"I've asked Keith to look into them, but there aren't any results yet." He lowered his head and continued to stare at the screen.

"Do you think them starting Shaw Group and imitating Grant Corporation is to provoke you?" I looked at Theo and asked.

Theo was no longer paying attention. "I don't know. Let's talk about it after we find out." "Alright."

At this moment, my cell phone rang. It was a call from Petra. Her voice came through the receiver, and it was good news, "Wanda, I'm getting on the plane with your dad O tomorrow."

Hearing this, I could not help but be overjoyed. "You guys are finally coming back!"

"Yeah, we're coming back early since you need to see us."

"Okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow."

I hung up the call, and Theo saw how delighted I was. "They're coming back?"

"Yes, I can finally ask them."

"I'll go with you tomorrow."

"You're busy these days, no? It's okay, I can handle it myself. You don't have to..."

Theo interrupted me. "I'm not busy. I'll accompany you."

"Okay, okay."
