Chapter 224
“Kendrick.” Cynthia smiled slowly.
“You little brat, where have you been for the past two years?” Kendrick stood up and
hugged her,
genuinely fond of his cousin. “You went off to have fun, leaving me to manage the
company. I don’t even have time to date.”
“I went to Jiverton.” Cynthia found it easier to be around her family.
Kendrick let go of her and playfully poked her forehead with his hand. “You silly fool!”
Cynthia touched her forehead. Although two years had passed, time flew by quickly for
adults, and two years felt like a blink of an eye.
After exchanging pleasantries, Kendrick suddenly remembered that Cynthia had asked him
a question. earlier. “By the way, did you ask me something when you came in?
“I asked if there were any executives with the surname Shayne in the company.”
“Shayne? I don’t think so.”
“None?” Cynthia was puzzled. Was Miche le using her mother’s surname?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yeah.” Kendrick nodded, concerned about her confusion. What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. Im going to fire someone later. You won’t stop me, right?” Cynthia raised an
eyebrow, leasing.
“I’ll always listen to you. Do you think I’ll stop you?” Kendrick playfully flicked her forehead
again, as if no matter how old she grew, she was still that silly little fool in his eyes.
With the answer she wanted, Cynthia felt reassured. After telling Kendrick that she would
come to visit him later, she went to meeting room number three and waited.
After she left, Kendrick kept thinking about Cynthia’s question.
Suddenly….
He thought of someone.
Da mn it!
Did Cynthia run into that person?
Just the thought of it made his heart slightly anxious. Cynthia and Jonathan’s relationship
was already somewhat strained, and if this were to be known… would it not lead to a big
fight?
With these thoughts swirling in his mind, Kendrick became flustered.
Should he go out and stop them? However, he was afraid of interrupting Cynthia when she
was angry. Cynthia could be a bit fierce when she was upset.
Forget it!
He decided to wait and sec.
Let Jonathan bear the brunt of it.
Cynthia waited in the meeting room the whole time.
Around noon, she heard some voices outside the meeting room, followed by Michelle’s.
“Dad, the person who wants to fire me is inside. She asked you to come see her.”
Jonathan was confused.
Dad?
He frowned, hesitated momentarily, and decided not to say anything.
Theoretically, he could be considered her stepfather.
Normally, he had no interest in dealing with these matters. Whether it was Cynthia or
Shirley, he never needed to step in and handle things.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUsually, Cynthia single-handedly managed the situation for Shirley.
This was the first time he had to do such a thing, and he felt a bit unfamiliar with it.
Amidst the mix of emotions, Jonathan summoned his authority as the chairman and
braced himself.
No matter who was inside, he would have a proper conversation with them.
Michelle had little experience, and her mother wanted her to gain some, so he reluctantly
placed her in the planning department.
Anyone would still have to consider his authority. No matter who it was, they should show
some leniency.
There was no reason to fire someone.
Michelle glanced at him and pushed open the door to the meeting room. She was already
thinking about how to confront Cynthia later.
As the door opened, Cynthia stopped reading the contact and looked up, meeting
Jonathan’s eyes.
Jonathan wanted to know who was troubling Michelle, and Cynthia wanted to know who
had allowed Michelle, a troublemaker, to enter the company.
