Chapter 230

Just as Cynthia left, Jonathan arrived. He searched the company but could not find Cynthia, so he went

to Kendrick instead.

“Have you seen Cyn?” Jonathan asked.

“She just left,” Kendrick replied.

“She left?” Jonathan furrowed his brow. “Didn’t you ask her to stay for lunch?”

He had instructed his secretary to order food when he left just now, all of it was Cynthia’s favorite.

Why did she leave?

“She had something urgent to attend to. It’s probably best not to casually bring people into the

company. Some people may not say it, but they can still harbor some resentment,” Kendrick said,

hinting subtly.

With just a simple sentence, Jonathan understood that Cynthia was still angry with him!

Cynthia had already put the matter out of her mind. After leaving the Yates Group, she got into the car

where Moe had been waiting for over two hours.

Then, Moe drove toward the restaurant,

He had already pre-ordered lunch, including all of Cynthia’s favorite dishes. He knew she was not picky

but also knew what she loved to eat.

As soon as they arrived at the restaurant, Cynthia received a WhatsApp message from Jonathan.

[Old Man Yates: Let’s have dinner together tonight?]

Cynthia did not respond.

After all, she had slapped Michelle’s face at the company, and she would definitely complain and cry to

Mandy when she got home.

Cynthia did not know what kind of person Mandy was and did not want to make any unfounded

speculations. Hence, declining this dinner was the best outcome.

The two of them were eating their meal when Cynthia heard a voice halfway through.

It was a voice she did not like.

“He fired me because of a woman. You have no idea how embarrassed I was. That woman told the

entire planning department that I wouldn’t be allowed into the Yates Group anymore.” Michelle was on

the phone. She was not too loud but loud enough for Cynthia to hear.

“I didn’t cause a scene. It’s not my fault!”

“I told you it was that woman stirring up trouble. I’ve always been a good employee, but today, out of

the blue, they fired me.”

“I don’t want to talk to you anymore. Everything is always my fault. You keep defending him. Let’s see

how composed you’ll be when he doesn’t want you anymore because of that woman.” Michelle was

very dissatisfied with the person on the other end of the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Michelle huffed and took a seat. There was a man sitting beside her.

Seeing her angry expression and annoyance after hanging up the phone, he softly and soothingly said,

Didn’t I tell you to talk to your mother nicely?”

“Uncle Thomas, you saw it too. I told her, but she just wouldn’t listen.” Michelle was extremely

displeased. “She must think I did something to offend Uncle Yates. I don’t even know what kind of spell

Uncle Yates has put on her!”

“Alright, don’t be angry. I talk to your mother when I have the time,” the man comforted her.

With a simple sentence, Cynthia’s attention was captured.

Uncle Thomas?

She turned to look and happened to see Michelle with a man.
