Chapter 317

Lionel was confused.

What did he do? Kendrick treated him so poorly.

To avoid being wrongly blamed, Lionel followed Kendrick and approached him in the office after

Cynthia went to attend to her own matters.

He asked. “Mr. Yares, is it because of last night that you don’t want to see me?”

Kendrick’s expression turned cold.

He had the nerve to say that!

“Well, that’s not my fault. After you chose Mr. Neal, I confirmed with you again, and you said I didn’t

need to accompany you, forcing me to leave,” Lionel explained. His intuition told him that if he did not

clarify this matter, Kendrick would definitely not give him a bonus.

Kendrick retorted, “I was drunk at that time. Can you trust what a drunk person says?”

Lionel did not answer.

No… He could not.

However, Joshua had such a strong presence that he did not dare to compete with him

“If I get drunk again one day and tell you I want to bungee jump without a rope, would you push me off

the building? Kendrick asked.

Lionel was on the verge of falling apart. “Mr. Yates, stop pulling my legs.”

“You’re the one doing this to me.” Kendrick felt frustrated when he thought about all the childish things

he had done at Joshua’s place..

Nonetheless, he still could not understand why he chose Joshua.

Why?!

It did not make sense.

“Do you remember what Joshua said about taking me back?” Kendrick still felt that something was off.

“I want you to repeat it word for word without skipping a single detail.”

Cynthia mentioned that the information she shared came from Yoel, who was with Joshua. Whether or

not they lied to Cynthia remains unknown. However, Lionel would not deceive him.

“Mr. Neal asked whether you wanted me to take your home or if he should do it, and you chose him,”

Lionel stated straightforwardly.

At the time, when Joshua called out ‘Ken‘, only Yoel heard it clearly. Lionel was too focused on

Kendrick’s reaction and did not pay much attention to Joshua’s address.

Kendrick gave up.

After saying he wanted to be alone, he dismissed Lionel and spent the whole day in the office,

questioning his life choices.

The entire day passed,

Cynthia had been waiting for Kendrick to make a decision. However, even after work hours, she had

not heard Kendrick say he

would apologize to Joshua.

At exactly live–thirty in the evening, Cynthia received a WhatsApp message on her phone.

It was from Joshua, informing her that the new phone was ready and asking her to help transfer the

data.

Cynthia replied with a simple, [Okay.]

She decided to change all the notes and contacts related to Joshua on her phone. Considering what

happened last night when Yoel used her phone to call, she thought it would be better not to give

Joshua any reason to argue with Kendrick.

However, right after changing the notes, she found her own behavior somewhat strange. In the end,

she changed them back, using them as a reminder not to have too much contact with him.

After that, Cynthia put her phone in her pocket and went to Kendrick’s office to find him.

Kendrick had done nothing all day, and the paperwork had pilled up.

Cynthia noticed his gloomy and dispirited state and asked concernedly. “What’s wrong with you? Are

you sick?”

“It’s not that”

“Then what is it?” Cynthila assessed his condition.

Kendrick let out a sigh of despair and said, “The after–effects of being drunk.”

No one knew how he had spent the day.
