Chapter 43: You Were Spoiled (2)
Manuel called and asked her about the aftermath of her conversation with Theo.
Danica told the truth, "Mr.Shaw, because of some unexpected guests, Mr.Dalton and I didn't manage to reach an agreement tonight"
Manuel asked her with concern, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Danica couldn't tell Manuel that Theo had reached out to hand her a tissue to wipe her coffee, and then Venice came in and caused a scene. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Danica's situation was also very awkward when something like this happened.
People could get it twisted and might think that she was the mistress who shamelessly destroyed Venice's relationship with Theo.
So Danica chose her words carefully and said, "Nothing, I just think that a lot has happened between Mr.Dalton and me.
Maybe it's wise for me not to continue to write this script.
If you have a suitable candidate to replace me, I can give up the ownership of this script.
Manuel understood what she meant.
"You want to quit?"
"I think so,"
Danica admitted.
Originally, she only felt that it would be difficult to work with Theo, but after the thought of being a mistress popped up in her mind, she really couldn't take it anymore.
She decided to quit.
The news that Theo and Venice were about to get married spread throughout the city, so it was not appropriate for her to have any interactions with Theo since she was his ex-wife.
Manuel was left silent for quite some time before replying, "I got it.I understand"
Then he ended the call.
When Theo received the phone call from Manuel, he was in Patrick's bar.
After he drove Venice back to her place, he went straight to the bar.He was not able to eat for the whole day, so Patrick asked someone to prepare dinner for Theo.
Patrick also asked someone to send the wine into one of their private rooms, but he prepared it for himself.
Patrick did not let Theo drink a drop.
Theo looked at Patrick angrily as his friend moved the wine bottle closer to him and away from Theo's hands.
He came to Patrick's bar to drink.
Patrick faintly said, "After Danica came back, I remembered how she would take care of you when your stomach cannot handle a drink."
Patrick and the others knew that Theo had a bad stomach.
In the three years that Theo and Danica had been married, they rarely drank, and Patrick had almost forgotten that Theo had a bad stomach.
Patrick sincerely apologized, "I have drunk a lot of wine with you this year.That's already enough.I'm sorry"
Theo was already annoyed, but when Patrick suddenly mentioned Danica's name, he became more irritable.
He also mentioned how Danica took care of him in every possible way, and his mood immediately worsened.
After everything that happened tonight, Theo felt in his gut that Danica had been seriously hurt by the incident from earlier.
Theo's phone suddenly rang.
Manuel was calling him, and he decided to answer it.
On the other line, Theo heard Manuel's very unfriendly tone.
"Mr.Dalton, although I don't know what happened between you and Danica tonight, I don't think we can continue this partnership."
Theo frowned.
"What do you mean?"
Manuel replied, "If you want to continue with this, either Danica withdraws, or you change the person in charge of this project."
Theo's mood soured further by Manuel's news.
Theo's voice was laced with fury when he asked, "She wants to quit?"
Manuel answered truthfully, "Yes? Theo couldn't hold it in any longer and threw the phone onto the wall in front of him.
‘What the hell did he mean that he'd end our partnership? Danica will quit anytime she wants?’
‘Who spoiled her?’ she thought angrily
