Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon

Chapter 234

Just as a glass bottle was about to smash against his hand, Yates lunged forward, throwing his hand out to shield Floyd from the blow. Cordelia gasped, "Little Flame!"

Merry was dumbstruck, covering her eyes and screaming, "Oh my God!"

Everard squinted, about to step forward, but he paused, noticing the bottle stop just an inch from Yates's hand.

Breathing heavily, Yates was also stunned, his eyes wide with shock.

He couldn't believe it and looked up to see Floyd still gazing at him calmly, "Yatesy, I knew you wouldn't go through with it."

Hearing this, Yates was livid, on the verge of exploding.

He grabbed the glass bottle and smashed it on the ground, then grabbed Floyd by the collar, "You..."

His eyes reddened, glaring at him, finally managing to say, "Bro, why do you always have to mess with me?"

Yates was fuming, but Floyd remained calm and gentle. He reached out, ruffling Yates's hair, "Promise me, you'll stay away from the esports scene." Yates clenched his jaw, eventually letting go as if all his strength had been drained in an instant. He scoffed, "Fine."

Floyd turned and left the room.

It was only after Floyd had gone that Yates sat back down on the hospital bed, head bowed in silence, his whole being filled with a sense of defeat.

He had tried so hard to get close to him, but in the end, Floyd had pushed him away.

Merry, standing not too far away with a stern face, was shocked by the sudden change in atmosphere. Blinking, she suddenly said, "This whole confrontation was really about who cared more."

"Clearly, Yates lost."

"It's obvious Yates cares more about Floyd, and Floyd, he's just a jerk! A total jerk!"

The more Merry ranted, the angrier she got, "I even voted for him secretly following Yates, only to find out he's such a bully! This is too much!"

As Merry continued, her eyes also started to redden, "It's too much!"

Yates suddenly looked up at Cordelia, "Lia, join the EW Club, fight alongside me!"

Cordelia was taken aback.
