That was why it was better to be a woman! If she wanted to cry, she could cry. If she had to bow down to someone, she would. She didn't have to overthink about it. She could do whatever she wanted. It wasn't like she had anything to lose.

As they talked, that odd thought flashed through Waverly's mind.

Wyatt raised his brows slightly. He couldn't help but look at her with contempt. "Is that what he told you?"

"That's right..."

She nodded seriously and then felt that it didn't sound right. She explained further.

"Franklin is a very good person. He's diligent and knowledgeable. He's also pragmatic... If it weren't for this incident, I think the both of you might have become friends! Birds of a feather flock together, don't they?"

It was just that Franklin's luck was poor, and he didn't have much time to fulfil his ambition. He had to bear the heavy burden himself. After the incident, he did look rather pathetic.

Technology was the core of a company. Since he'd stolen it from someone else, it was indeed...

"Haha..."

Wyatt snorted. He didn't agree with her at all.

Was that kind of man worthy of being compared to him? Franklin had copied his company's designs for the sake of money. Knowing that it was a bad decision, he had taken shortcuts and various risks for the sake of success. It was a bold move. Wyatt could give him some points for that, but Franklin's actions that night had disgusted him!

If only he had an ounce of responsibility and acted like a proper man. How could he do such a thing?

Wyatt had much more admiration for the woman in front of him than Franklin.

Meanwhile, Waverly was still praising Franklin and pleading for him."Mr. Johnson, can you just give us some time?"

The more earnest Waverly was, the more unhappy Wyatt felt. "You came to a man's room in the middle of the night. How could he still be in the mood to 'work overtime'?"

Even an idiot would be able to tell that Wyatt was mocking her. Waverly bit her lower lip and said softly, "He doesn't know that I came to look for you..."
