Chapter 459 “It’s just a meal, so it’s not a big deal. Or do you think I’m so poor that I can’t even afford to treat you to meals?” Matthew chimed in. “Captain…” Cynthia thought about slipping away for the umpteenth time. At this moment, she seemed to suddenly understand why the others asked her to run when they found out about this news. Matthew was constantly causing her psychological pressure. Ding! The elevator had stopped at their floor, and Cynthia just wanted to escape. Shirley joined Cynthia while Matthew carried the suitcases and followed behind the two. He looked at Cynthia, who was trying to slip away, and a barely perceptible smile flickered in his eyes, but it vanished instantly. After Shirley followed Cynthia into the apartment, she sensed something was amiss. “Cynthia, do you have a bad relationship with Matthew? Did he offend you? “No.
“Then why don’t you like him?” Cynthia stopped in her act of changing shoes. “Do I give off that impression?” “Yes!” “Maybe I’ve always been a bit indifferent, and you misunderstood,” Cynthia explained. Shirley, who knew Cynthia well, insisted, “No, you’re different with him compared to others.

Cynthia was speechless and handed Shirley the glass of water, giving her the side-eye. Even if she had feelings for Mitchell, she would not have feelings for Captain. Unless she wanted to be reprimanded. 2/2 Shirley held the glass of water, confused. So Cynthia did not like him? Then why was she acting so out of character? “I’m going out later tonight. Are you going to eat here or go back? Cynthia thought about the gathering tonight and felt a headache coming on. “I’ll go back,” Shirley replied. She had only come to hang out. After hearing her response, Cynthia called the driver to pick up Shirley later. Once she was done with these tasks, she sat with Shirley in the living room, watching TV. However, Cynthia’s mind had drifted elsewhere. She wondered if she should cancel the gathering tonight. After all, it was just a welcome party for Matthew, whom she had already met before. Whether she attended or not probably would not matter, and she would go after Riley and the others

Before Cynthia could decide on an excuse not to go, Matthew had already knocked on her door, asking her to come out..
