Chapter 80: Misunderstanding

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In a private room, Winnie frowned and looked at the food in front of her as she said to Cyril Wells coldly, “You know I didn’t come here to eat with you.”

“I do. Don’t rush.” Cyril Wells poured himself a glass of red wine. “I’ve already heard about your company.

“It’s not that I can’t help you through the crisis, but I have a condition. You should know this, Winnie.”

Hearing thus, Winnie looked a bit sullen. If it weren’t that Cyril Wells had told her he could help her solve the company’s crisis, Winnie would never come here to have a meal with him.

Winnie knew exactly in her mind what Cyril Wells meant. For so long, Cyril Wells had only had one goal in mind, which was Winnie.

So, thinking of this, Winnie said with a sullen look, “Cyril, I’ve already made this clear to you. I’m married now. It’s impossible for us to be together.

“If you ask me to come today just to say these meaningless words, I’m sorry, I don’t have so much time to chat with you here.”

After saying this, Winnie got up and was about to leave. Cyril Wells’ expression changed and he quickly went forward, grabbing Winnie’s arm.

Winnie was shocked. She pulled her arm out of his hand in panic. “Cyril Wells, what do you want to do?”

“Winnie, don’t be mad.” Cyril Wells let go of Winnie’s arm to show her that he wouldn’t do anything to her.

“I’m indeed here today to discuss with you about cooperation.” Cyril Wells looked at Winnie and said like a gentleman, “I won’t force you to do those things you are thinking about.

“But since we’re here to discuss cooperation, you should have a few drinks with me.”

Winnie frowned and looked at Cyril Wells in doubt. She saw that Cyril Wells was indeed looking like a gentleman, sitting here in earnest. There was even a hint of sincerity in his eyes, as if he really wouldn’t do anything bad to her.

Thinking of this, Winnie hesitated for a while. She thought that the Duke of Rolle was still in the hospital right now and the Rolle Corporation was also on the verge of shutting down because of the suppression from the Enbrel Corporation. It would be great if Cyril Wells was truly willing to help.

With that in mind, Winnie took a deep breath and sat down again.

Seeing Winnie’s action, Cyril Wells smiled in satisfaction. He picked up the bottle of red wine on the side and poured Winnie a glass. He handed it to her and said with a smile, “Winnie, it’s actually very simple if you want me to help your company.”

While Cyril Wells was talking, Winnie suddenly looked at Cyril Wells and said, “What does the Enbrel Corporation have to do with you?”

Winnie was also a smart woman. It was indeed a bit strange that the Enbrel Corporation attacked the Rolle Corporation crazily like this.

On top of that, Cyril Wells suddenly contacted Winnie and said he was willing to offer her help at this time. Winnie couldn’t help suspecting in her mind that the person behind the Enbrel Corporation might be Cyril Wells.

However, why had Winnie never heard that the Enbrel Corporation was actually under the Wells family?

Winnie stared at Cyril Wells firmly, trying to find an answer on his face.

After hearing that, Cyril Wells’ eyes were full of confusion. He looked at Winnie and asked, “What do you mean? You wouldn’t think that the CEO behind the Enbrel Corporation is me, would you?”

Winnie didn’t answer, but looked at Cyril Wells seriously.

She had already acquiesced that this was the thought on her mind.

Cyril Wells suddenly laughed. He looked at Winnie speechlessly as he shook his head and said, “Winnie, I wonder why you would have such a thought. If I’m really the CEO of the Enbrel Corporation, why would I do all this to you?”

Cyril Wells spread his hands and said directly, “You know I’ve always had feelings for you in my heart. That being the case, I am even eager to work with the Rolle Corporation to win your favor.

“What good does it do me to suppress your company so desperately?”

Winnie frowned and looked at Cyril Wells in doubt. She was trying to determine if what Cyril Wells said was true or not.

Unfortunately, Cyril Wells seemed extremely genuine and didn’t look like he was lying.

Winnie was a bit confused in her mind. Was she really wrong about this?

Did the Enbrel Corporation have nothing to do with Cyril Wells?

Winnie stared at Cyril Wells with doubt. If Cyril Wells had something to do with the Enbrel Corporation, Winnie could only exclaim that Cyril Wells was indeed too good at acting.

At least Winnie believed what Cyril Wells said at this moment.

After noticing Winnie’s gaze, Cyril Wells sighed in frustration, “Winnie, what I said is all true. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have invited you here today to discuss with you about cooperation.”

“Alright, I thought too much.” Winnie frowned and said, “What condition do you have? You can tell me directly.”

Winnie knew that Cyril Wells wouldn’t possibly help the Rolle Corporation so easily.

Cyril Wells looked at Winnie and said with a smile, “Winnie, you’ve always known my condition.”

Winnie was vigilant in her mind. She looked at Cyril Wells again and reminded him, “Cyril Wells, there are things that I’ve already made very clear to you. I don’t want to repeat it again and again.”

Cyril Wells’ expression froze slightly and a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, but he still kept his gentlemanly smile on his face. “Of course. I understand. I just hope to be a bit closer to you. You won’t refuse this, will you?”

“If you only want to be friends with me, I can accept it.” Winnie looked at Cyril Wells and was relieved.

“Of course. In that case, we’ll be good friends.” Cyril Wells said happily. Even though he wasn’t content to be friends with Winnie in his mind, he couldn’t rush in the current situation. Everything must be done step by step.

“Winnie, let’s have a drink.” Cyril Wells raised his wine glass with a hint of greed flashing in his eyes when he looked at Winnie.

Just when Winnie was about to speak, the door of the private room was suddenly kicked open by someone.

Cyril Wells looked at the door in anger and shouted, “What’s going on? Is there not such a thing as manners in such a large restaurant?”

Cyril Wells thought the person who kicked the door open was the staff member of the hotel, but when he saw who was standing at the door, his expression immediately changed.

“Alger? Why are you here?”

Winnie also looked at Alger in shock and she felt unusually guilty in her mind, as if she was caught cheating.

Especially when she was even holding a glass of red wine in her hand right now.

Alger didn’t answer Winnie and directly walked to Cyril Wells.. He grabbed his collar without holding back and reproached him with a low voice, “Cyril Wells, I’ve already told you not to think about doing anything to my wife, haven’t I?!”
