    Chapter 231 Confrontation


    In the evening, everyone who went to the team-building activity had returned, and most of them were


    busy finding food to satisfy their hunger.


    But Lucas immediately went back to his room. "Cora, are you okay?"


    Seeing Cora lying on her side, wearing jeans and a puffy short-sleeved blouse, his anxious heart finally


    settled down.


    "I''m a grown-up. Don''t worry about me so much, and don''t treat me like a child."


    It had been half a day since Cora narrowly escaped being coerced by Byron. During this time, she had


    thought a lot. She ultimately believed they were unsuitable for getting back together, so her mood


    calmed down quite a bit.


    Lucas''s concern warmed her heart, and it strengthened her determination not to go back to Byron and


    wait in vain.


    Unable to resist his yful nature, Lucas raised his hand and messed up her hair. "It''s time for my baby

    toe and eat! They''ve already prepared the barbecue, so there should be food soon."


    "Don''t mess up my hair!" Cora anxiously fixed her hair and asked, "Are we having a group dinner again


    tonight?"


    "Yeah, team-building activities usually involve group events. If you don''t want to eat with everyone, I


    can take you out of this resort to eat."


    Lucas didn''t think much of it and assumed that Cora just wasn''t used to eating with so many people.


    In fact, it wasn''t that Cora didn''t dislike dining with others. She just didn''t want to run into Byron again.


    But then she thought about it and realized that it was Byron who wanted to force her, and she didn''t do


    anything wrong. It was Byron who should feel embarrassed, and she didn''t need to hide herself.


    "It''s fine, and I''m just curious. Let''s eat with everyone."


    "Whatever you say."


    And so, they grilled by a stream as the night grew darker.


    People in the city rarely had this kind of experience, so most of them happily ate and yed, while


    some sat together to y games.


    Cora and Lucas chatted while eating, asionally taking pictures together with their phones.


    Only Byron leaned back on the recliner Jason prepared for him, gazing at the sparkling night sky that


    was far away from the city. Unconsciously, he was distancing himself from them.


    But even so, he had an abundance of food and drinks by his side.


    Jason personally cooked barbecue for him and even arranged for several bottles of good red wine to


    be brought over.


    Pleasant dining hours always slipped away quietly, and before they knew it, it was already 9 o''clock in


    the evening.


    "Everyone is tired today. How about..." Jason saw that it was gettingte and nned to let the


    employees and their families rest.


    Jason also wanted to lie down in the stilt house and take a good rest. He had been standing and grilling


    for Byron for over two hours, and his fat feet were already highly ufortable. He just wanted to rest


    as soon as possible.


    However, Jason never expected that he would be interrupted before he could finish his sentence.


    "It''s rare for us toe out like this, and you want to rest so early?" When Byron spoke, Jason was


    taken aback.


    Others also looked at Byron with surprise, and Lucas couldn''t help but nce at him as well.


    Byron was now dressed in a ck polo leisure suit, almost blending into the night.


    After saying that, he lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.


    At the moment when the smoke dispersed around him, he suddenly looked up and nced at Lucas.


    The gazes of the two men unexpectedly met in mid-air.


    Lucas narrowed his eyes as he locked onto Byron, his gaze finally settling on the split corner of Byron''s


    lips.


    Meanwhile, Byron raised an eyebrow at him, and it felt like an invisible spark was sizzling in the air...
