Chapter 600 Pretend to Cooperate With Him?
After Hendry got out of the office, Rayan looked at Chad smilingly.
âWhat does Ms. Yates want to do? Has she fallen in love with Hendry?â
Chad didnât want to talk gossip. His expression didnât change at all.
Chad just said seriously, âItâs Mr. Loweryâs private matter. I donât know. If you are so curious, you can
ask him yourself!â
Rayan was speechless. If I had the guts to ask Hendry, I wouldnât have asked you.
However, judging from Chadâs response, I wonât get any information from him.
Rayan could only stop asking.
The atmosphere between the two people in the break room was not very pleasant.
âMs. Yates, Iâm sure youâve already finished what you should say in the previous meeting. I wonder why
you came here today?â
Hearing Hendryâs cold words, Mila raised her eyebrows and felt more interested.
âMr. Lowery, you donât have to be so hostile to me. I donât want to do anything to you. Iâm just a little
curious. Why do you dislike me?â
âYesterday, Mrs. Lowery invited me to your home. I think she wanted to let us meet each other. But I
didnât expect you to be so indifferent. Itâs just a meeting. You wonât lose anything!â
Hendry knew better than anyone what his mother was planning.
That was why he ignored Edithâs words yesterday.
However, Hendry didnât expect Mila to bring up this matter so bluntly.
Mila could tell that Hendry was surprised. She raised her eyebrows.
Mila said, âActually⦠there is no conflict between us. We have never seen each other before. Some of
the things we do are just to make our parents less worried, so⦠Maybe we can cooperate with each
other?â Her words were partly true.
After Mila said this, Hendry looked at her for the first time.
âWhat do you mean? I canât see anything on which we can cooperate with each other!â
Seeing that Hendryâs attitude had finally changed, Mila was secretly pleased.
âActually, I already have someone I like. I agreed to go on the blind date just to make my parents
happy. To get things done once and for all, we can pretend to be togetherâ¦â
Before Mila finished speaking, Hendry stood up. He was clearly reluctant.
âMr. Lowery, let me finish. We only need to pretend for a month. After a month, we can break up with
the excuse that we donât get wrong! Our family wonât force us by then. Right? Moreover⦠I wonât let
you help me for free. After itâs done, I can help you get some overseas funds. I heard that your recent
project needs a lot of money. I think my offer will benefit you a lot!â
Mila was obviously prepared today. She knew well about Hendryâs current situation.
Unfortunately, the information that Mila got wasnât enough. In other words, she didnât know what kind of
person Hendry was.
Hendry was not interested in the daughter of the Yates family.
In the Loweryâs house. Edith was not very surprised by Hendryâs refusal, but it was for sure that she
would not give up so easily.
âYou were injured because of Kaylah, and you stayed in the hospital for so long. Did Kaylah go to see
you? She has moved on. Why are you still so obsessed with her?â
Every time she mentioned Kaylah, Edith felt angry.
In Edithâs opinion, Kaylah was an orphan. She was adopted by the Delgado family, but Edith believed
that Kaylah had done some ****things to earn it.
Cecilia echoed Edithâs words.
âThatâs right. Hendry! That woman is not worthy of all the things you did for her. You donât know that,
but the doctor said that you were dangerously injured this time. If you were not lucky, you might never
wake up again! But Kaylah wasnât grateful at all. She even messes around with Aryan!
She doesnât deserve to join the Lowery family!â
As soon as Cecilia finished speaking, Hendry slapped her.
The clear slap made the entire living room quiet.
Cecilia covered her left cheek with tears in her eyes. Her eyes were full of resentment.
âYou hit me again for that woman! I am your sister! That ***is a pleasure seeker. She flirts with a lot of
men. Only ***like you would adore her!â
Obviously, Cecilia was completely enraged by Hendryâs actions, so much so that she lost her mind.
Seeing Hendryâs face darkened, Edith quickly reached out and pulled Cecilia behind her.
Facing her sonâs cold face, Edith also felt scared, but she still forced herself to remain calm on the
surface.
âHendry! What are you doing? How can you slap your sister? What is family to you? You only care
about Kaylah, donât you!â
Edith was so noisy that Hendry frowned more deeply.
Hendry dared to slap Cecilia to **her ********.
But obviously, he couldnât do that to Edith.
Hendry clenched his fists tightly. He looked so fierce that he might explode at any time.
âI warn you one last time! Donât speak ill of slander Kaylah in front of me again! Otherwise⦠I will take
back everything I gave you!â
After Hendry finished, he turned around and left. The door was slammed ****.
Edith sat down on the sofa, frustrated.
Cecilia was still sobbing. She groaned due to the pain in her cheek.
Looking at her daughterâs swollen face, Edith was both worried and angry.
âDidnât I tell you to mind your words in front of your brother? You knew that Hendry is siding with that
****!â
