Before Kendrick made the call, Lionel’s call came.
“Mr. Yates, should I pick you up from Mr. Neal’s house, or will you come to the company yourself?”
For Kendrick, this sentence was like a bolt from the blue, shattering his last bit of hope.
“Did I really leave with Joshua last night?”
“Yes, Mr. Yates.”
“Why didn’t you stop me? As my secretary, is it appropriate for you to let the CEO of a cooperating company take me away?” Kendrick was completely shattered.
“It’s not appropriate,” Lionel responded without hesitation.
“Then why did you let Joshua take me away?”
“I wanted to take you back myself, but you rejected me and chose Mr. Neal. Both of you told me to leave, so I had no choice but to leave,” Lionel spoke truthfully
Honestly, Lionel was still puzzled as to why Kendrick would go with Joshua instead of with him. After all, they had only
recently met Joshua.
Kendrick hung up the phone decisively, collapsing into despair as he rested his head on the table. Then, he looked at Cynthia as if he had lost all hope
“Cyn, just kill me. I don’t want to live anymore.”
Embarrassing.
It was too embarrassing!!
“Let’s not be in a hurry to give up on life. You still have to apologize to Joshua and compensate for the damaged items.” Cynthia’s words were like another stab to him while he was down
Kendrick was puzzled
What damaged items?
Amidst the mix of emotions, he really wanted to die quickly and painlessly.
“What exactly happened at his place last night?”
“I don’t know the specifics, but when you called me, you imagined yourself as Superman. You told me not to come and find you, saying that Joshua wanted to eliminate me and claim to be the number one in the world.” Cynthia provided a general description as she did not know the exact details.
Kendrick snapped,
What kind of insane remarks were these?!
“You also said he would beat Joshua up,” Cynthia added.
Kendrick remained silent.
Cynthia continued, “And one more thing.” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
“What is it?
“You mistook the drunkenness from drinking as Joshua poisoning you and wanted to purge the poison out of your system.” Cynthia always spoke with the utmost calmness, saying the most plercing words.
This time, Kendrick truly wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
If only he had not watched so many fantasy TV shows and read so many superhero comics before.

This was simply too awkward for him.
“If you feel embarrassed to apologize, I can apologize on your behalf when I help him recover the phone data, and I’ll make sure everything is compensated for.” Cynthia understood Kendrick’s embarrassment, and slur probably would not want to
face it either.
“I’ll go myself.”
Kendrick took a deep breath and decided.
So what if he died of embarrassment?
As long as he was not the one feeling awkward, it would be others!
When he went, he would apologize with a serious and solemn face. Even if Joshua wanted to laugh at him, he could not find a
reason to.
Hmph!
Cynthia raised an eyebrow, probing, “Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.” Kendrick had made up his mind.
“Alright.” Cynthia did not stop him but just said, “Let me know when you’re going so that I can go and handle the phone issue as well.”
Kendrick nodded.
The two of them casually tidied up and left
When Kendrick arrived at Yates Group with Cynthia, Lionel approached him as usual.
“Don’t wander around in front of me today. I don’t want to see you,” Kendrick coldly rejected him.
