Chapter 315

“No need to apologize to me. After all, you didn’t do anything wrong to me,” Cynthia said, knowing that her words would hit him hard, but it was unavoidable.

Kendrick was first confused but instantly became shocked.

His hand froze mid–air, no longer pulling his hair.

“What do you mean by that?”

Why did he have a bad feeling about this? Could it be that he went crazy with alcohol in public?

That should not be the case. He would never allow himself to act that way in public, and Cynthia knew how much he cared about his reputation.

“You were at…” Cynthia began to speak, but her words were cut off.

“I got it!” Kendrick quickly interrupted, relieved that the truth was not as cruel as he had imagined. “I went crazy with alcohol at Mr. Tom’s place, and he had no choice but to call you?”

It must be it!

How could he face Lionel with a serious demeanor in the future?

Lionel would definitely think of him as a hypocrite.

Cynthia thought about which situation was more embarrassing–acting crazy in front of his personal secretary or in front of someone he was not very familiar with. She concluded that it was slightly better in front of someone he was not very familiar

with

After all, they would not have to face each other every day.

“It’s not as bad as you think,” Cynthia reassured him

In the midst of his frustration, Kendrick saw a glimmer of hope. This time, he did not speculate further. After all, he had already imagined the worst possible outcome. If Cynthia said it was not that bad, he could accept it

“So, I had a drunken episode there?”

“At Joshua’s place,” Cynthia said, remaining particularly calm.

Kendrick’s whole body stiffened, and he felt like someone had hit the pause button on his life.

Joshua’s place?

At! Joshua! Neal’s! Place!

Kendrick felt his world was crumbling, and despair filled his expression.

This was what Cynthia meant by ‘not as bad as I think‘?

It would have been better if Lionel had witnessed it instead.

After all, Joshua was Cynthia’s ex–husband!

This was too embarrassing!

“But that doesn’t make sense. Why would I go to Joshua’s place? Even If I were drunk, Mr. Tom should have been the one to bring me back.” Kendrick stopped messing with his hair and frowned, deep in thought.

The setup they arranged yesterday was for him to get to know Joshua better, to test his character, and to see why he had let Cynthia down.

This kind of setup did not require Lionel to drink, and it would not have stopped him from bringing Kendrick back.
