Lenzo rejdied, โYou have three manne...โ
Faced with Lorenzoโs intimidating tone, Ella didnโt dare resist and reluctantly got out of bed. For safety, she stacked several pieces of furniture against the door. It didnโt seem heavy when she did it, but now, on an empty stomach, it was really tough to move them.
At the doorway, Lorenzo tipped into a knowing smile as he listened to the sounds of furniture being shifted inside. Bernard was confused when he saw Lorenzoโs smile; just a moment ago, Lorenzoโs face was stern, and now he was smiling wanly. Bernard was so caught up in thought, he didnโt notice Eric sneaking up and tapping him on the head.
Bernard asked, โWhatโs up with that?โ
Eric said, โWhat are you gawking at? Letโs hurry up! Canโt you see the boss is occupied? Letโs wait for him in the study.โ
Bernard complained, โI didnโt see anything!โ
Eric dragged Bernard straight to the study. Not long after, Cecil came in as well. As Cecil entered, Bernard turned to Eric and asked, โHey, do you think the boss is having that trouble or not?โ
Cecil was shocked. If Bernard got his mouth shut, it would be deserved. He was judging the boss behind his back.
Bernard looked curious, while Eric just looked at him calmly. Bernard felt a bit uneasy under his gaze; he forgot that Eric never talked about Lorenzo.
But just because Eric didnโt discuss others didnโt mean he didnโt love gossip. Maybe he was even more curious inside. Thinking this, Bernard leaned in closer to Eric and whispered, โHey, youโre always close to the boss. Is it true he canโt handle it anymore?โ
Cecil knew this was really going to end badly.
When Eric heard Bernardโs reckless words, his face immediately turned dark. โMind your own business. Can you handle it?โ The sudden question left Bernard confused. โOf course I can. Iโm totally fine!โ He thought Eric was talking nonsense.
Eric replied, โI doubt youโll hold it together for much longer.โ
Bernard rolled his eyes. โWhat kind of doubt is that? Either a guy can or he canโt. How can you doubt youโll suddenly not be able toโฆโ
Eric said bluntly, โI have a feeling the bossโs gonna finish you.โ
Bernardโs heart skipped a beat at those words. Hearing what Eric said, it was obvious he didnโt want to gossip about Lorenzo behind his back.
So what if Lorenzo wasnโt around, whatโs wrong with chatting a bit? When Cecil walked in, Bernard quickly looked over at him. โCecil, you know the bossโs not doing well, right?โ
Cecil quickly moved to a sofa and sat down, lighting a cigarette. He didnโt dare engage with what Bernard had just said.
Eric gave Bernard a death stare. โHave you tried?โ
Bernard refused. โNo way! How would I even try that? What kind of question is that?โ

Eric and Cecil exchanged glances and just ignored Bernard. Bernard was just like Macro, completely unmanageable. The more they talked to him, the more he got worked up.
Bernard noticed their silence and pouted, โIโm just trying to come up with a way to help the boss, okay?โ
Cecil and Eric exchanged looks after hearing that, and then turned to Bernard and asked, โJust mind your own business!โ
Bernard was at a loss for words.
Meanwhile, Ella finally moved the furniture away from the door. By the time she opened the door, Lorenzo was no longer there.
