Chapter 1136


    Chapter 1136 Drink


    Matthew left the office. Miguel followed suit, muttering in a grievance, "You''re barking up the wrong


    tree. I''m doing this for your own good."


    They took the elevator to the underground parking lot and then drove away.


    On the other side, Eleanor left Metric Technology and drove alone on the street. Feeling extremely


    upset, she called Troy. "I want to drink."


    Troy sensed that something was wrong. "Where are you?"


    "I''m..." Eleanor looked around and shouted, "How would I know where I am? I''m not familiar with


    Bloomstead. I''ll send you my location."


    After hanging up the phone, she opened WhatsApp to share her location. He arrived soon. He found


    her sitting on a bench by the river, surprised to see that she was crying.


    Having seen and gotten used to her cold and prideful demeanor ever since day one, he never expected


    to see her cry.


    "Why are you crying? Who bullied you?" He leaned over slightly and tilted his head to check on her.


    Eleanor appeared pitiful and vulnerable with those red, teary eyes.


    "Who else could it be? It''s your boss and Miguel Lynch." She stood up abruptly. "Be my drinking buddy


    for the day."

    "The bars are not open for business at this hour. Where do you wanna drink?"


    "At home." Grabbing Troy''s tie, she pulled him into the car. They drove back to Axies Vi in no time.


    She had the chef prepare lunch. Sitting in the dining room, she opened several bottles of red wine in


    one go. She poured Troy a full ss and clinked the sses before downing the entire drink.


    Bang!


    She mmed the table in fury. "Why does Miguel want to sell me off to someone else? Did I give my


    consent to that? It''s simply outrageous! And your boss—Matthew Kings—that bastard took advantage


    of my affection for him. He actually conspired with Miguel to sell me off. They are so cruel…"


    Troy kept silent in utter confusion. What''s going on?


    While listening to Eleanor''sints, he discreetly sent a message to Matthew, demanding an


    exnation.


    Soon, Matthew sent a voice message. In case she might overhear it, Troy converted the voice


    message into text and finally understood the whole story.


    "I think... you have misunderstood Boss. Whether it''s Mr. Lynch or Boss, they are not the kind of people


    who forsake loyalty for personal gain. I''ve known them for over a decade, and I can vouch for that with


    my life." Troy assured her.


    "My *ss! You guys are no less different. If I had known this, I should make sure none of you escape


    from the hidden n."


    It seems like things have gotten out of hand, he guessed. He couldn''t help but swallow nervously as he


    dared not provoke Eleanor. He held a ss of wine and downed it in one gulp.


    After finishing the wine, he sighed and continued, "Watch yournguage."


    Recently, Eleanor had been studying business with Miguel during the day while Troy apanied her


    during her free time.


    Thus, Troy witnessed firsthand how Eleanor gradually became harsher with her words. He was aware


    that she heard and picked up a lot of foulnguage.


    "Who are you to judge me? Let''s drink." She continued to fill his wine ss.


    Just like that, they spent their time drinking.
