She was speechless by her thought process.Seeing that she did not respond, Michelle explained anxiously, "I promise that what I said is true, can you trust me?""Yes," Cynthia said lightly.Michelle paused.She was afraid that she had heard it wrong, so she opened her eyes wide. "Do you believe me?""Sit down and talk." From the moment Cynthia grabbed her hand, she knew that Michelle was just going to show her the knife, not kill her.If she really wanted to kill someone, she would have a forward force. The arm she held only had normal strength.She did not say anything at first because she wanted to hear what Michelle had to say."Thank you! You are a good person." Michelle was relieved, feeling like she had escaped near death.Beep!Friendzoned.Cynthia put the knife back into her bag, not wanting to be misunderstood by other people in the store. "Tell me, what is going on?""It was Ms. Tanz who asked me to do this." Michelle did not hide anything. She liked Cynthia mo
The two chatted about something else.Seeing that the atmosphere was right, she pursed her lips and said a little awkwardly, "I am sorry for what happened before, I went against you and said bad things about you.""It is all water under the bridge now." Cynthia was very indifferent.If she cared about the past, she would fight back directly.If she did not care, then it was not worth her concern.Michelle thought about it for a while and said, "If my mother comes to you, be careful. She knows about this and is on board. I am worried that she will harm you.""Okay," Cynthia responded.As they spoke, the big invisible stone on Michelle's heart was finally gone.Before Mandy Quinn had a relationship with Cynthia's father, Michelle was just an ordinary little girl.However, after that, Mr. Yates was very nice to both of them.He let them buy whatever they wanted, was never stingy when it came to materialism, and had servants where they lived.These changes in life caused great c
"You figured it out by yourself. Just thank yourself."Michelle smiled.She took her bag and left.Cynthia also stood up and walked out. As soon as she walked out of the door, she saw Joshua standing outside the door, looking very attractive."Why are you here?""Waiting for you.""We shall go for lunch first," Cynthia did not say much and took him to lunch.After lunch, the two went back.For the rest of the afternoon, Joshua stayed in his room, and no one knew what he was doing.On the other hand, Cynthia received a call from Riley not long after returning home, and she asked her out. Before leaving, she told Joshua, but Joshua did not say anything.When she arrived at the place, Riley said, she found that Jimmy was also there.At first, she thought it was just a simple chat and shopping until Riley said, "Who do you think Captain likes?""I discussed it with Jimmy and the others. There is a high probability that it is you," Riley said this to test Cynthia.That way, it w
Riley stopped and said solemnly, "It is all okay. What I am most worried about is that you are going to be with him. Three hundred and sixty-five days in a year, your days will definitely be repeated. You do not like to talk, he is also like a log of wood, you would make a boring pair.""Probably not," Cynthia retorted again.If the person Captain liked was really her, then she thought his EQ was quite high, considering the ways that he tried to test her before.It should be interesting to be with Captain."You do not like him, do you?" Riley seemed surprised, and continued to speak ill of his captain, "It is okay for Captain to be a friend, but he is really not a lover material. If you really want to fall in love, I will find you a younger guy."Cynthia did not want to continue this topic. "Are you not going shopping? It is getting late now.""Do you really like him?" Riley asked.Cynthia denied it. "No.""Cyn, you need to be cautious in love, and Captain is risky. If you do n
A lot of things about her getting along with Captain came to Cynthia's mind.The time she called him as an antidote, although she offended him, the first thing he cared about after learning about her situation was her safety."Cynthia, well done.""You got married and lost all your courage?""Cynthia, be more wary of men.""Are you asking me to be a kept man?""Do you want to be my girlfriend so that I can go home?""Look for me next time when you want to get married. I should not be bad looking."'I want you to go back with me for a year and pretend to be my girlfriend."Cynthia was startled when she recalled them all.What happened?Why did she suddenly think of this?Seeing her mood change, Riley could not help but ask, "What is wrong?""Nothing is," Cynthia replied indifferently, but her heart was beating very fast at this moment.She seemed to be…Wrong.Illusion, it should be an illusion.Riley saw that the timing was almost right, so she said, "You do not look li
There was some emotion between Cynthia's eyebrows and eyes. She wondered if she could lie.Riley saw her pondering and took another bite of dessert. "Now you know that Captain planned it from the beginning, right? With his previous status, he was a person who was scrambling for other positions when he changed jobs. Why did he choose to retire?""To go home and inherit the family property," Cynthia said."The family property is there and it will not run away. Is it worth retiring on purpose? Is career certainty not good?"This made sense.She could not even refute."In my opinion, he is just trying to trick you. Although having career certainty is good, he had to spend most of the time in the organization, it is like a dream to want to be with you every day," Riley said very directly. "Captain is not an emotional person," Cynthia defended."You are not him, how would you know? Before this, can you imagine that he would specifically recommend himself to work in your company in
Seeing that he was not throwing a tantrum, Cynthia agreed, "Okay.""Do not tell anyone.""Okay."After getting Cynthia's promise, Joshua opened the door and went out. He walked decisively, leaving Cynthia with a back view full of distance.At this moment, Cynthia felt an extreme uneasiness.She did not know why she had such a feeling in her heart, let alone where this uneasiness came from.Joshua, who had left, had already gotten into Yoel's car. He was sitting in the back seat. His eyes were much colder than before, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.Yoel only felt that the air pressure inside the car was very low.It was so low that he did not dare to take the initiative to speak."Have you found Nadia's information?" Joshua asked."I found it. This is her information." Yoel was still very reliable in handling things, took out the information from the passenger seat, and handed it over.The only thing he never managed to find out was about Ms. Yates.As f
Yoel had already installed the new surveillance camera. Then, he hesitated before finally asking, "Would you like to check if the last surveillance video is damaged?""No," Cynthia replied with confidence. She had already recovered it and knew everything that had happened.However, Yoel persisted, "Let's take a look, just in case."Cynthia glanced at Yoel before turning her focus back to the laptop. Eventually, she agreed to his request and opened the last surveillance video, which happened to be from the day Joshua had come to see Yoel.With Yoel's prompting, Cynthia watched the video attentively, and her gaze deepened as she listened to their conversation. "I know he's fully recovered. He confessed to me," Cynthia said as she closed the video.If Cynthia had seen this before Joshua had told her the truth, she might have been angry. However, she could not care less. Instead, she was more curious about the game Joshua wanted to play with her. After exchanging a few words with
