Listen to this chapter:

Lenzo rejdied, โ€œYou have three manne...โ€

Faced with Lorenzoโ€™s intimidating tone, Ella didnโ€™t dare resist and reluctantly got out of bed. For safety, she stacked several pieces of furniture against the door. It didnโ€™t 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 Lorenzoโ€™s smile; just a moment ago, Lorenzoโ€™s face was stern, and now he was smiling wanly. Bernard was so caught up in thought, he didnโ€™t notice Eric sneaking up and tapping him on the head.

Bernard asked, โ€œWhatโ€™s up with that?โ€

Eric said, โ€œWhat are you gawking at? Letโ€™s hurry up! Canโ€™t you see the boss is occupied? Letโ€™s wait for him in the study.โ€

Bernard complained, โ€œI didnโ€™t 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, โ€œHey, 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 didnโ€™t discuss others didnโ€™t mean he didnโ€™t love gossip. Maybe he was even more curious inside. Thinking this, Bernard leaned in closer to Eric and whispered, โ€œHey, youโ€™re always close to the boss. Is it true he canโ€™t handle it anymore?โ€

Cecil knew this was really going to end badly.

When Eric heard Bernardโ€™s reckless words, his face immediately turned dark. โ€œMind your own business. Can you handle it?โ€ The sudden question left Bernard confused. โ€œOf course I can. Iโ€™m totally fine!โ€ He thought Eric was talking nonsense.

Eric replied, โ€œI doubt youโ€™ll hold it together for much longer.โ€

Bernard rolled his eyes. โ€œWhat kind of doubt is that? Either a guy can or he canโ€™t. How can you doubt youโ€™ll suddenly not be able toโ€ฆโ€

Eric said bluntly, โ€œI have a feeling the bossโ€™s gonna finish you.โ€

Bernardโ€™s heart skipped a beat at those words. Hearing what Eric said, it was obvious he didnโ€™t want to gossip about Lorenzo behind his back.

So what if Lorenzo wasnโ€™t around, whatโ€™s wrong with chatting a bit? When Cecil walked in, Bernard quickly looked over at him. โ€œCecil, you know the bossโ€™s not doing well, right?โ€

Cecil quickly moved to a sofa and sat down, lighting a cigarette. He didnโ€™t dare engage with what Bernard had just said.

Eric gave Bernard a death stare. โ€œHave you tried?โ€

Bernard refused. โ€œNo way! How would I even try that? What kind of question is that?โ€

13:50 Wed, 26 Mar Chapter 434 IN 70/76

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, โ€œIโ€™m 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, โ€œJust 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.
